Good job for voting mackoti 
It signals friendliness for coming turns and I hope that it increases pindicooter's and plako's urge to do something with our neighbor.. Again a long shot though..
What's the base 8 in your Issy notation? 7*1.25 = 8.75? I could not follow the notation quite through so I could not double-check it, but it seems that there is some room for rounding errors in any case.
Let's not send something like iron for iron to William too early, if he accepts it and Ichabod notices it, it's a clear warning. However, this would be a fun moment to send gold for gold countdown
Maybe William is not in a position to do anything, but we might try, 5 gold for 5 gold, 4 gold for 4 gold.. I think he will find it amusing. (Assuming that this is an acceptable thing to do from technical perspective)
