[SPOILERS] Scooticator and Pindooter give a sporting try

Where are the 3 spots you'd be settling?
What would be your expansion prospects beyond that?

I'm not sure where the next 3 settlers would go, but here's where they could go.

A. North of Bulldogs




B. Dyes in Jungle




C. Cow City




D. Wheat Filler
E. Clam Filler
F. East Island




There's also room for more cities on Tall East Island, but we won't know exactly what we're dealing with for a few more turns. An axe is being built in the capital right now to go explore / defend any new cities over there.

If I had to give my votes now, it would be A, B, and F -- or possibly A, F, and a 2nd city on the East Island

We also should name these islands to help tell them apart...

Was already thinking some variation of A, B, and F myself, so I think we're thinking similarly.

Pindicator - quick thing:



What do you think of swapping off the iron and onto the hamlet? That will cause us to grow this turn, as we're just 1F short right now. Basically we're trading 5h for 3C + an extra turn at size 8. That generally that seems worth it to me when the net effect of delaying the axe by 1T doesn't really hurt us. Thoughts? If you're good with it, I can make the swap before the turn rolls.

Re: naming the islands.

If we keep on using B1G teams for them, we can use their division names.

Oh, wait, I can't keep Leaders and Legends straight already.

Whelp. Never mind then.

Oh, this is good. We can name random islands after conference/division names in various sports, and cities can be named as they fit.

[pindicator]

With switching the iron, we'd be swapping 5h for 1f and 6c. Yeah, i think that sounds like a good choice. Or fuzzy math

Leaders? Legends? Worst conference names ever (says the insufferable SEC guy). I like the conference idea though, pretty neat.

Oh they are completely insufferable. Next year though they switch to "East" and "West" which should be more sane... Although if we went by that, we would have to call the west one "East" and the eastern one "West" just because it would make as much sense as adding Maryland and Rutgers to the Big Ten.

Fuzzy math + gut feel + no NobleHelium rebuttal yet adds up to good idea for me! I'll do it if I can get to my computer and into the game before the turn rolls.

[Boldly Going Nowhere]

You should intentionally misname them East and West just to mess with Noble.
