[PB16 SPOILERS] SevenSpirits goes off the deep end and finds Krill

t129:

* We started the turn with almost 200 crop yield more than second place. Given that second place has a total of 235 crop yield, this is pretty good.

* GNP was third to start, fourth when we ended turn. Wetbandit in a golden age is number one. I think we're above Gaspar in a golden age, but below Mike who's making 200g/t. (We are only at 160.)

* We've finally lost our top MFG spot to Gaspar in a golden age, though.

* Settled another island city.

* Gavagai declined our offer but proposed OB for our sugar. Perfect! Moved in our galley and dropped off impi + sentry chariot. I don't think he'll declare war to break the OB - the trade routes should be worth a very high amount to him, and 0-1 to us.

* 1t-ing literature this turn and whipping forge in Night Watch, then we are building National Epic in 3t with the forests we saved there. Then - gotta keep this in mind for micro - we switch to caste/pac for 5t.

* That giant pile of cities we settled is becoming productive.

* Whipped your mom.

The rule of thumb I have is that I need 30 turns to get cities productive (basically, need 30 turns to get the granary and enough pop to make them payback the hammer cost. Gold cost of cities though needs significantly longer, unless you have a shit load of intercontinental trade routes...)

Good to hear about Gavagai, when I logged in this morning I just saw he didn't accept, so he must have replied after I looked around. I agree, I don't think he will declare, but i do think he will consider cancelling in 10 turns. That should be enough time to get circumnavigation though, so don't care too much.

This crop yield is retarded. We have 50% more pop than yuris in second place, 18.5ish% to 12%. 130 odd pop lying around...still growing faster than him.

Speaking of rules of thumb, in my experience the act of building mausoleum causes someone to need a day or longer break on that turn with about 80% likelihood.

Hopefully this one was merely pre-emptive?

Hm?

(Hopefully we're having that day long break the turn before MoM is finished, rather than the turn after).

Right, I meant we're finishing it this turn (and maybe someone else is too), so this is the turn that gets paused.

Ah, I took it that you meant the turn that people see that it has been built the turn is paused because everyone loses their heads.

Mixed bag of a turn. We got MoM, but something happened to decrease our gold or increase our costs before the turn was processed, so our slider was bumped down and we didn't get literature. So now an entire city and quite a few workers just sit there for a turn doing nothing. I'm not sure what could cause that. Maybe in a pitboss, inflation goes up before your turn runs? I'd believe that kind of crap.

*shrug* We got MoM. The rest of the plan is waiting top see if we got a <20% chance of a GE (although, if yuris goes into NH, what would that do to his Taj time? Extend it about 5 turns, right?)
