Yeah, I did Machinery 20 turns ago with the GE i got from building Hanging Gardens. I was actually hoping for a 2nd low-odds GE instead of what I got to get Feudalism and run an early Vassalage with CHM but we can't all get what we want.

Sunrise, for being a good sport about my bulbing I'll let you send that work boat along my coast if you like. But the overland route will still be faster for you, if you can swing it with Moogle.

500 AD its a late MoM, Parkin you may say thanks to Commodore for it.To bad you dont have a neighbor like him.Man why i get always this knid of neighbours in pitboses?

Yep, I'm 12 points in the lead with other nations beating my GNP by 100+ points... clearly it's game over, I've won already.

I've LP's graphs. He is the #1 hitting over 300 every now and then.

I assume parkin will claim he was only talking about that particular turn (aka a 0% turn for him), but we all know what he was trying to get us to believe.

Making easy-to-catch outright lies...poor form I know this is a "play ruthless" game, but I'm still not amused.

@Moogle - You have any interest in this overland scouting thing I'm trying to do? I'll use a missionary, so there won't be any tactical danger to you.

Lol, you guys let Parkin build the MoM too? Hahahahahahahaha.

I was going to build MoM next. But I'm still teching calendar. My tech speed is slow. Besides, I at least built my share of wonders this game... where's the help?

[Lord Parkin]

There is definitely more than one civ with a high GNP out there. I keep seeing a rival with 300 GNP in the demographics... clearly run by Mr Invisible.

I could post about Steles and wonders artificially inflating GNP, or about subtracting wonder scores from Civstats to get an idea of the true tech leaders. But I digress.

What are people's thoughts on other people deliberately having no tech selected during the majority of the turn so that the "Can See Research" passive espionage bonus is useless?

[mackoti]

Totaly against.You should have a tech selected all the time, unless you diddnt finished one and didnt conected yet.

Again there is no rule against this and definately don't want one, but I find this very bad form.

Yes I do understand that sometimes you need to think before making the desicion of next tech, but I don't belive one could have that problem every turn .

[Meiz]

Here you go, Ichabod. I'm pretty sure it isn't claimed yet either.



I know I'm not going to.

I think I can beat that...

[Ichabod]

I think I can beat that...

Wow, a city there and you are suddenly unkillable. Nice!

I can't believe other people already have alphabet. What are they thinking, it's such an useless tech. Only the newbs tech it.

Now the only thing I can offer is the map of Sunrise's land. But the last time I made a comment about his coastal city being undefended and he spent a whole turn of the espionage slider in me. I don't think I should mess with him...
