Turn 10
Aaaand more food!
Aaaand more dot-mapping/sandboxing trouble.. 
Buddhism also fell. Just for the record we would have been one turn short if we had tried. We are working a 1-commerce tile, but you need to have a 2-commerce tile to finish Meditation EOT9 or have some kind of magical capital tile (growing immediately to size 2 and then working two 1-commerce tiles would not have been enough either). So yeah, there were several score increases this turn and of those both Q and Brickdoc start with Mysticism + Fishing... I hope Q got the religion, otherwise Brickdoc's 2 techs from huts + religion start just makes me too jealous.
Btw, when I was dreaming of getting BW from the hut I entertained a thought of putting couple of turns into Polytheism so that we could react if nobody lands Polytheism in couple of turns. Well, it never happened, we most certainly can't afford Polytheism now and I would bet that someone from this crowd is going for it anyways.
Next move SE-X?
SE-NE would give us a nice overview of the coast and reveal the missing tile, but we might be able to cover it later with a warrior. So, depending on landscape we go SE-E or SE-SE.. Cross your fingers for a new hut and BW/Agri/Wheel....
