As it is a game mechanic question...

You would have to have Alphabet plus a bunch of other techs before you could use a GS to bulb MC.

I didn't realize it was under that much. :\

Though we probably will avoid getting a GM next since we need a GP for the shrine and $$$ first.

Is it? Are you expecting to stay at 40% slider as your cottages grow like weeds (and that city's cottages fill out)?
Honor the charge they made.

IIRC

Depends how fast Plako expands to new cities. The faster Plako expands now, the lower that slider will be kept for longer and the better settling appears.

Well we could produce another Scientist in about ~20T. Asl has been working Scientist every now and then so we won't start from scratch.

Before Currency I don't see us getting over 40% and we've also slight happiness issues that currently limit our possibilities to work that many cottages.

Lets go with that for the city name.

As for GS bulb MC, we have to get calendar, alpha, and IW. Its doable.

As for Academy vs Settling, I'd go with whichever hides our GNP better since we have another on the way tongue

Actually, if we are going to Binary Science, go grab the academy.

Thank you but no, you also need Compass and Aesthetics to bulb MC. IW opens up Compass that is higher up the list and Aesthetics is in the top 12 IIRC.

Well then, how many turns will it take before you can self-tech calendar, alpha, IW, compass and aesthetics tongue?

Also, binary science for the academy only applies to your bankroll before you build the academy. After that, it's your mean science slider that applies. What that means is working 7 turns of 0% science and 3 turns of 100% science is identical to working 10 turns of 30% science.
