[SPOILERS] joey and scooter's thread: FUN THINGS ONLY

[GermanJoey]

It had to have been BGN who popped Philosophy, he got a 12 point score boost last turn, and had another classic-era score jump 87->88 (drama perhaps? or CoL for caste...) and then a smaller one last turn (meditation?)

[GermanJoey]

furungy and i both made peace with tbs this turn, it seems, and baii wardecced HAK

[GermanJoey]

Ohhhhhhhhhhh noo, I didn't realize I needed a fort AND a road to get access to the stone! I already let my chops fly!! I only got 160 production into the HG instead of 240!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GermanJoey]

ok after running around like a chicken with my head cut off for a bit, i realized i can delay the hammers by a turn by building wealth. one turn delay, but its all good.

[GermanJoey]

oh man, I been so amped about this hanging gardens build, I've been setting it up for like a month lmfao... it seems doubtful this turn lag will cost me the wonder with the pyramids still in play, but... probably gonna be a nervous wreck all day tomorrow about it hahha...

[GermanJoey]

Booya. Well, if it comes down to a coinflip, then that's at least a lot of failgold!! I did a couple more whips so I'll *only* be at 52 pop next turn...



Demographics, so as to compare to next turn.

[GermanJoey]

#1 Exports - Imports!

Cheers to you, plako. Not much I can do about it, 33 player game after all.

[GermanJoey]

Awwwwww yeah, The Hanging Gardens are mine, baby.

<- me as I look at these BAD ASS NUMBERS right here:



#2 GNP. #2 MFG. #5 CY. #3 Score. #3 Pop. Most importantly, doubled my Exports-Imports "lead" by signing OB with Currencyless-Oxy. And these numbers will just continue to look better and better once I get my happiness resources hooked up, as some of my cities are unhappy due to heavy-whipping or being size 10; Calender in next turn, Silk hooked the turn after that, Spices the turn after that, Whale a few after that. Zoo should be about size 15ish by 1AD.

More concerning is this:



Switching production to a spear in case he loads up some immortals in that boat and tries to ruin Peewee's big day. All other cities are basically aimed to pump military and settlers; I can catch up on whipping infrastructure once happiness is looking better.

[GermanJoey]

I logged in to check, and yep I have to be paranoid:



Galley missing, archer gone too. There could be another immortal on that galley 1NW of the city. It's unlikely, but losing PP would be devastating. I triple-drywhipped the spear. Gonna delay the settler by a few turns, but then again my galley isn't in position anyways.

Updated score charts for my neighbors: (HAK still theoretical, but I still think he's SE of me based on his wb scout; BaII's wardec on him a few turns ago is more evidence for this)
