t203 - election results:
Dreylin II votes for Dreylin II (313 votes)
Gand_Hi votes for Dreylin II (216 votes)
Charlemagne abstains (75 votes)
Diplo victory requires 375/605, so we've got a buffer of 13votes at the moment.
Nothing notable to report from the logs.
Buddhism - fails into Izmir on first attempt, then succeeds on second. (just Judaism to go)
Judaism - into Edirne - that's the full set!
Hinduism - into Mecca
Taoism - into Samsun (for another Temple)
Christianity - into Konya (for another Temple)
CivJewelers - into Izmir, both Edirne & Izmir will complete an exec next turn to spread to Ankara & Istanbul.
Hmmmm, there are 4 of Ruff's Tanks on their way through my land, and checking the Military Advisor shows that there are also Bombers in New Damascus and Bursa Reborn. I check back into last turn and see that they were there already ... so Ruff's probably rumbled our plans. I knock off an e-mail to mh to warn him of a possible imminent attack.
Cultural progress:
Istanbul - 12t (completed Christian Temple)
Ankara - 24t (completed Buddhist Temple)
Edirne - 38t
Izmir - 21t (completed Christian Cathedral & CivJewel)
Zonguldak - 71t (GP in 5t; 98% Artist)

Communications with mh:
Quote:The same, looking at the domination percentages.
It will be tight and depending on when the next vote is called for. I just hope that rioting cities also count, in case Ruff is trying something funny with spies.

Quote:mh,
Election results are in and so we've got actual figures now ... 13vote margin. I'll try and test out whether a rioting city still gets votes later today.
You should reinforce Vienna this turn if you're still at war with Ruff; he's got 4Tanks on their way through my territory which should reach the border on his next turn and he's pushed Bombers into New Damascus and Bursa. I've just checked back into the previous turn and his Bombers were in Bursa last turn. So he's probably already confirmed the rat he's smelled in my lack of progress against you.
I've rebased my own planes into the two cities to see if they can displace his, but you should probably be braced for an attack this turn or next. Maybe it's time to call off the pretence?
Dreylin.

I'm pretty sure that rioting and resisting cities still contribute votes. The vote totals on the F8 members screen change as soon as you conquer a city.

Good news, since my Hotseat test didn't get very far!
I got roped into a chat trying to speed along RBPBEM#2, but Ruff and I got chatting about this game (somewhat editted to remove irrelevant comments):
Quote:Ruff.Hi: dreylin - how is the war in pbem1 going?
me: /loaded question....
Ruff.Hi: is mh in this chat?
me: not that I know of
Ruff.Hi: just you me and some lurkers
me: You offering to help out?
Ruff.Hi: looks like you need it
me: I got things under control
Darrell: ahab had moby dick, dreyling has MH
de (Krill): Dreyling?
me: heh
Darrell: funny when I type "in" the "g" comes by reflex
Ruff.Hi: as in ... Darling?
me: it's like Broker and his "regro" not "rego"
Ruff.Hi: lol
Dreylin - no chatting to mh about any possible Ruff unit movement
me: OK
Ruff.Hi: let me at least try and stop you winning by diplo
and no mentioning that comment to mh
me: Wow, lots of restictions!
Ruff.Hi: YES - LOTS AND LOTS
lol
naw - its just that I have about a 5% chance of stopping you and I want to see if I can pull it off
me: Next time we sign a treaty, remind me to read the fine print....
de (Krill): what about a restriction of no cheese wins?
Ruff.Hi: tbh - this game is getting a little dull and I would be happy if it finished
de (Krill): or would that break the game?
me: dunno
Ruff.Hi: but a Dreylin culture v Ruff space would prob go down tot he line and be real fun
me: Really?
What's your ETA?
Ruff.Hi: well - what do you have at the moment ... 4 cities heading to legendary?
me: yeah
Ruff.Hi: yours looks to be around 30
me: less
Darrell: <bites tongue so hard it is bleeding>
me: heh
Ruff.Hi: it will take me 31 turns to finish the requred techs
at my current pace
me: so unless you cheese me, I win that race
Ruff.Hi: or I increase my pace
and slow you down some (or is that cheeze)
me: depends if it's "slow me down some" or "cause a city revolt in multiple cities every turn so they can't reach Legendary"
Ruff.Hi: @Drey - is there a difference?
me: @Ruff - how many cities can you keep revolted?
Ruff.Hi: at the moment, I can get a revolt down to about 1000EPs
me: 1000EPs per revolt!?
Ruff.Hi: so I should be able to keep 2(ish) in constant revolt
yeah - dambed expensive
me: they'll get cheaper though as you spend more, right?
Ruff.Hi: true
me: Yeah, so then it would come down to Mecca
which is a bit further behind
Darrell: <severs tongue>
Ruff.Hi: I cannot even see Mecca
me: heh
Ruff.Hi: I had Izmir pegged as your 4th
so Mecca is your 5th
bastard!!
me: Whaaa?
BTW, Izmir is No. 3
Ruff.Hi: not by F8 (at the moment)
but I can see that is moving
me: oh, the turn hasn't got to you yet
Ruff.Hi: keeps taking tiles from my northern DV city
me: yeah, that city might revolt soon
Ruff.Hi: I have it set up for culture (77 per turn) with Herm going in soonish
not even holding its own
me: no
Ruff.Hi: btw - if any lurkers are shocked that we are freeling trading such details ... dreylin and I pretty much talked like this the whole game
but I am pretty sure that we did keep somethings back 
me: we still are, aren't we?
Ruff.Hi: you have a 6th city?
me: I might need one!

Well I editted out the PBEM2 nagging and the TeamSpeak config stuff ... you & Darrell both made vaguely relevant comments. Nothing personal! 
If there hadn't been other things going on, I might have called Ruff on his comment that: "a Dreylin culture v Ruff space would prob go down to the line and be real fun" and pointed out that maybe I wouldn't find the multiple city revolts so much "fun" as "frustrating" or possibly "annoying".
Anyway, I should try and work out where I can get a 6th city at this stage!

Istanbul
Ankara
Izmir
Edirne
are the ones currently working on it.
Zonguldak is my GP farm, but I never really considered that it has enough production or commerce to make a decent cultural contender ... although maybe if I just add the other two Corporations in it, it might bring the time down enough that I wouldn't need to build any other multipliers there.
Mecca is building Hollywood and then will start on additional multipliers; I'm intending to work it towards being no.5.
No.6 would probably have to be either Kufah or Sarmatian from production capacity alone; I'll have to assess them and the potential of Zonguldak next time I get the game, I guess.

Right now all my gold is going into the slider and Corporation spread. Plus I'd need to revolt into UniSuff (or vote into it) before I could cash-rush.
