IIRC I offered you and TBS loans in the region of 18% over ten turns, right? so 118gpt for 1000g, or multiples of them?
It worked well for me because I didn't need tech at that point, I needed to get to Destroyers ASAP to defend against BGN. I think I turned tech off for over 20 turns, and to stop the buildup of gold from being essentially useless to me, I was willing to the the risk that you and TBS wouldn't pay me back. I think I ended up getting something in the region of 2000g off the loans? Which probably would have gotten me to Destroyers maybe 2 turns quicker? Which was just about enough to stop me getting steam rolled. Or would have been if I didn't get given oil by OT for free
