Elkad moving north two tiles is going to give gira a pretty meaningful extra bit of room there. The direction Elkad moved in just lost land for him for no compensation.

Miguelito posts a screenshot of his surrounding area showing a land area of roughly 100 tiles. Then he concludes that there's too little land and there must be post-Astronomy land that is taking up the land budget of 100 tiles. Why is FailFish not an emoji on the forum?

What on earth is El Grillo doing? Why is he simming as India? If he's trying to check how quickly Mjmd can build a wonder, it's not going to be much good since Mjmd's land will be completely different.

I was actually worried about Miguelito's land being a little too strong. Ask for a tight map, get a tight map.

Sharp take:

Accordingly, seeing Elkad here makes me think that the shoreline to the west isn't necessarily an island, but another continent and therefore much more dangerous to settle. True islands will be much rarer and more valuable, though I see at least one to the north.
All the more reasons for the first Workboat to explore: we can determine if the island to the west is safe to settle, meet more contacts, and make it as far as we can along the E-W axis toward circumnavigation. This is some kind of record for swift map analysis. Good show El Grillo.

That is a funny Mjmd / Superdeath interaction, any guesses who pulls ahead here?
Likely no one?

FWIW my inclination is to say "play on", reloads have been rejected for bigger mistakes in the past and it's a slippery slope to start granting reloads for worker mistakes.

If I was playing, my reaction would be the same as the two people who have said ok.
That said, I think we are kind of permissive about reloads. But I'd say we can let it reload.

It's Superdeath. Murder/suicide is the name of the game.
ElGrillo just got handed a continent.

How does it always come down to this with SD. I guess he just likes to "do something" instead of just micro up an advantage.
