[SPOILERS] Don't mention the war

Congratulations! However I'd like to hear how exactly your discussion with mackoti went, and in-depth on how you and mackoti came to the conclusion that you would likely win the game.

Thank you. When we ended Mackoti was generating ~2000 beakers at max science setting whereas I could hit ~3000 and after Laboratories difference would have increased although 3 Gorges dam probably would have compensated most the difference. I just had more land and cottages. Also the known civ bonus helps me out here since I could most parts follow Mackoti's foodsteps. So I should have been able to catch up in 15T.
