Everybody had part of their BFC in fog and in the interest of giving complete information so you can make an informed choice, I've decided to just share what's in the fog.
There is a riverside grass rice located 2 tiles west of the settler.
I can get an updated screenshot for you when I get home from work tonight
Thanks man.
In other news: I have conceived a truly marvelous plan to win, which this space is too narrow to contain
Bored lurkers can engage themselves in guessing, here or in the lurker thread, while we're all waiting on yuris for the game to start.

'What's the threshold for circumnavigation?', he asked, while considering a Worker-> WB -> WB -> WB start

Yuris bans EXP and allows ORG
Quote:I could see allowing Exp leaders (except Sury), but feel it would make the choice less interesting
Everyone else picks ORG (which guess what, I would have picked if I could so it becomes an auto-pick).
Is there some reason I should actually play this farce?

I don't want to sim, but I need to get Oracle out.
Ongoing thoughts: how early is too early to get 2 WB out for circumnavigation?

Circumnavigation is off.
Research should be along the lines of BW-> Fishing-> AH-> Wheel ->Mysticism->Meditation->Priesthood-> Pottery, though Pottery may be earlier.
I don't care much about whether I get Buddhism; the main point is to get to Priesthood for Oracle. If that works, I should have a lock on Colossus.

Do you mean circumnavigation is off the table for your plans, or did I do something to turn it off on this map? (Because I didn't think the latter was possible. )

Having more than a certain % of land disables circumnavigation, if I recall correctly.
Lurkers, if you could clarify on this mechanics question it would be great.

Oh yes, that is correct. The number is like 30% or 35% or somewhere between.
