(not positive on this)

I'd like having confirmation on this. I was under the impression that when you conquer a city you get the whip unhappiness.

I already said earlier in the thread that whip counters are per player. Our counter should still decrease while the city is in enemy hands, but if we get the city back it would have the remnant unhappy after the decay.

Think about it - have you ever captured a city with whip unhappiness? And how often has your opponent whipped a city under attack to defend it?

Really now. That seems kind of crazy to me, but it makes sense.

40T of whip anger does kinda wipe out the value of the granary being there. Though he also has a much better happy cap than us I'm sure (he has gold, whales, ivory, probably gems pretty soon, plus anything he could trade for), so I don't think it would be a useless city. It's probably still worth it to him.

He hasn't logged in since offering, but I'm hoping he will soon. Would like to be able to play the turn with the knowledge of what his decision is.

Thoth just logged in and took the deal. thumbsup

I'm DEFINITELY going to try begging money off them next. lol

edit: My favorite part is that from the time of the login until the time of accepting was 8 minutes. So he sat there at his computer for 8 solid minute thinking about it. For some reason this amuses me.
