(2:09:37 PM) niklas entered the room.
(2:09:37 PM) ChrisShaffer entered the room.
(2:09:37 PM) r_rolo entered the room.
(2:09:43 PM) niklas: heya guys
(2:09:49 PM) ChrisShaffer: hi
(2:09:52 PM) ChrisShaffer: getting ready to play
(2:09:52 PM) r_rolo: hey
(2:09:52 PM) niklas: ready for some action?
(2:09:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: yup
(2:10:03 PM) ChrisShaffer: closing unnecessary programs, will be just a minute
(2:10:43 PM) jerome: that good ! hi guys
(2:11:03 PM) r_rolo: I'm just getting some thing to eat :P
(2:11:28 PM) ChrisShaffer: what is command to insert comments in log again?
(2:11:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: ctrl-?
(2:11:37 PM) niklas: alt-e
(2:11:39 PM) jerome: need to find some power or i'll be offline in 30 minutes
(2:11:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok
(2:12:00 PM) niklas: got your ini file in order too?
(2:12:17 PM) niklas: for frequent autosaves I mean
(2:12:32 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes
(2:12:35 PM) niklas: though I always turn on the "Create save at end of turn" too
(2:12:41 PM) ChrisShaffer: but let me verify, it's been a while
(2:13:19 PM) ChrisShaffer: ; The maximum number of autosaves kept in the directory before being deleted.
MaxAutoSaves = 500

; Specify the number of turns between autoSaves.  0 means no autosave.
AutoSaveInterval = 1
(2:13:36 PM) niklas: cool
(2:13:50 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, firing up the game
(2:14:42 PM) ChrisShaffer: no whammies
(2:14:59 PM) niklas: whammies?
(2:15:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: it's a game show reference
(2:15:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: it means "no bad luck"
(2:15:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, moved the galley, the warrior and the axe
(2:16:02 PM) ChrisShaffer: end turn
(2:16:20 PM) niklas: heh, ok, never heard of it
(2:16:32 PM) niklas: guess I'm not too knowledgeable about american pop culture ;)
(2:17:01 PM) jerome: yeah but you know all prices at IKEA by heart
(2:17:11 PM) jerome: each to his osn knowledge ;)
(2:17:13 PM) ChrisShaffer: can barbarians appear adjacent to AI cultural controlled territory, if it is in fog of war?
(2:17:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka sent another worker toward us
(2:17:32 PM) ChrisShaffer: and the barbarian warrior moved onto the plains
(2:17:51 PM) niklas: umm, land adjacent to AI cultural controlled territory is not in fog of war, for that AI
(2:17:53 PM) niklas: so no
(2:18:03 PM) niklas: there's no special treatment of the human player
(2:18:15 PM) niklas: gah, no woodsman 2 now either then
(2:18:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: 96.5% attack odds for our warrior attacking the wounded barbarian
(2:18:54 PM) niklas: is he wounded??
(2:18:57 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes
(2:19:01 PM) ChrisShaffer: I shall destroy him :)
(2:19:08 PM) niklas: you shall!
(2:19:39 PM) ChrisShaffer: 1.6 health remaining, 4/5 experience
(2:19:45 PM) niklas: cool
(2:20:17 PM) niklas: just to clarify, the attack was down southwards right?
(2:20:26 PM) ChrisShaffer: no, was west
(2:20:30 PM) ChrisShaffer: he  was actually on the grass
(2:20:37 PM) niklas: ah, ok
(2:20:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: but it was worth it for the xp
(2:21:01 PM) niklas: definitely
(2:21:01 PM) ChrisShaffer: no changes in cities, about to hit end turn
(2:21:09 PM) niklas: diplomacy?
(2:21:34 PM) niklas: you did list a bunch of things to check each turn after all ;)
(2:21:47 PM) ChrisShaffer: right
(2:21:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: did that
(2:21:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka has nothing to gain from attackin Joao
(2:22:03 PM) niklas: great
(2:22:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: Joao doesn't like us enough to attack Shaka
(2:22:16 PM) niklas: what's their status towards each other anyway?
(2:22:19 PM) ChrisShaffer: no tech trades possible
(2:22:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: ah, drat, forgot to give Shaka pigs last turn, will do it now
(2:22:41 PM) niklas: ok
(2:22:41 PM) ChrisShaffer: only missed one turn of the gift bonus
(2:22:50 PM) niklas: no big deal
(2:23:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: they are cautious to each other
(2:23:22 PM) niklas: ok
(2:23:50 PM) ChrisShaffer: did we decide to put all our spy points toward Shaka?
(2:23:54 PM) ChrisShaffer: because right now it's 50/50
(2:24:20 PM) jerome: do we risk sometehing from the IA (rep-wise) ?
(2:24:27 PM) ChrisShaffer: I have no idea
(2:24:30 PM) niklas: IA?
(2:24:33 PM) jerome: AI
(2:24:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: AI
(2:24:34 PM) jerome: sorry
(2:24:40 PM) niklas: ah, no
(2:24:49 PM) niklas: the only thing we risk is that he reciprocates
(2:24:50 PM) ChrisShaffer: so should I dedicate 100% to Shaka?
(2:25:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: as best I can tell from the espionage screen, he's already doing it 100% to us
(2:25:20 PM) niklas: I'm not sure actually, if we plan to take him out then it would hurt our longer-term espionage towards Joao
(2:25:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: unless he just met Joao at the same time we did
(2:25:39 PM) niklas: I'm on the fence, so you two decide
(2:25:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: hm
(2:25:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: heh
(2:25:54 PM) niklas: actually, do set it to 100% on Shaka
(2:26:02 PM) ChrisShaffer: so we could do 100% to Joao under the assumption that Shaka will be dead before we can use spying?
(2:26:07 PM) ChrisShaffer: whyfor?
(2:26:13 PM) niklas: we can always set it to 100% on Joao next 10 turns to compensate
(2:26:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: true
(2:26:25 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, I'll do it
(2:26:28 PM) ChrisShaffer: then end turn
(2:26:33 PM) niklas: but if we decide that 100% on shaka is the way to go, there's no way to compensate for that later
(2:26:38 PM) niklas: cool
(2:28:13 PM) jerome: what is our hope in 100% shaka if he will be dead soon ?
(2:28:21 PM) ChrisShaffer: dunno
(2:28:33 PM) jerome: how many espionnage points do we have per turn ?
(2:28:41 PM) niklas: we shouldn't drop so low that we can't see his demographics
(2:28:49 PM) jerome: ok
(2:28:53 PM) niklas: not until we know he's dying anyway
(2:28:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: Ulundi has Axe Axe Impi Settler
(2:29:01 PM) ChrisShaffer: and alt-e isn't opening a dialog box
(2:29:08 PM) niklas: did you turn on the autologger?
(2:29:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: dunno
(2:29:19 PM) ChrisShaffer: I assumed it was on
(2:29:23 PM) ChrisShaffer: not much has happened yet
(2:29:25 PM) niklas: in the options, under one of the HOF panels
(2:29:33 PM) renata entered the room.
(2:29:40 PM) r_rolo: back
(2:29:41 PM) niklas: evening renata
(2:29:45 PM) niklas: and wb rolo
(2:29:55 PM) jerome: hi renata (unkle speaking)
(2:29:59 PM) renata: hiya!  probably can't stay, but i'll be here whiile i can
(2:30:02 PM) renata: hiya unkle and rolo
(2:30:06 PM) renata: and chris :)
(2:30:10 PM) r_rolo: hi :P
(2:30:14 PM) ChrisShaffer: hm, apparently not
(2:30:15 PM) ChrisShaffer: :)
(2:30:26 PM) niklas: ok, so it's on now then
(2:30:32 PM) niklas: and alt-e should work
(2:30:34 PM) ChrisShaffer: turned it on now - do I need to exit game and restart to activate it, or will it just work?
(2:30:40 PM) niklas: it should work immediately
(2:31:39 PM) ChrisShaffer: yup, looks like it
(2:31:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: warrior is healing
(2:32:00 PM) niklas: how long?
(2:32:06 PM) niklas: and on what tile?
(2:32:16 PM) niklas: there's a forest hill not too far south, maybe better to heal there?
(2:32:18 PM) ChrisShaffer: two turns
(2:32:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: on the grass
(2:32:27 PM) ChrisShaffer: it will wake up next turn
(2:32:36 PM) niklas: ok, no big deal then
(2:32:36 PM) ChrisShaffer: and there's no way for a 2 move barbarian to hit it
(2:32:57 PM) niklas: right, but I want to move south as fast as possible :P
(2:32:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: fortified axe on grassland
(2:33:02 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes, definitely
(2:33:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: as soon as it is healed
(2:33:36 PM) ChrisShaffer: the only place barbarians can appear between us and Shaka is the square on the far NW of the land by the axe
(2:34:05 PM) ChrisShaffer: don't like fortifying on grass, but it's the only spot that sees all but one space and also leaves barbarians as far away from home as possible
(2:34:14 PM) ChrisShaffer: axe is moving from capital to harapura
(2:34:41 PM) niklas: that's a solid reasoning, he's not threatened there so the low defense of the tile is no issue
(2:34:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: no changes in diplomacy or cities, hit end turn and next will be Polytheism
(2:35:17 PM) niklas: great
(2:35:19 PM) jerome: good
(2:36:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: Nobamba has axe archer archer
(2:36:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: Polytheism, and Harapura grows to size 4
(2:36:34 PM) niklas: normal defense
(2:36:37 PM) ChrisShaffer: no events so far
(2:36:56 PM) niklas: turn 88 is it?
(2:37:05 PM) ChrisShaffer: turn 84
(2:37:14 PM) jerome: sounds like we'll need cats, as expected
(2:37:18 PM) ChrisShaffer: Harapura will whip one pop for lighthouse
(2:37:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: right?
(2:37:28 PM) niklas: ah, right, yes
(2:37:37 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, off to get the slaves in line
(2:37:40 PM) niklas: I was looking at the *next* growth to po 4 :)
(2:37:51 PM) niklas: *whip*
(2:38:31 PM) renata: cats would be nice, yes :)
(2:38:34 PM) ChrisShaffer: no other news, galley found tundra
(2:38:49 PM) niklas: of the homocidal jungle variety :P
(2:38:55 PM) niklas: especially on this map
(2:39:26 PM) renata: it's really Shaka's horses that bug me.  i hate horse units when i'm attacking with axes and catapults. 
(2:39:42 PM) renata: lol @ Niklas's comment
(2:39:58 PM) ChrisShaffer: ending turn
(2:40:01 PM) niklas: yeah, we want jumbos for sure
(2:40:02 PM) jerome: we also will need jumbos for this
(2:40:16 PM) renata: :)
(2:40:22 PM) r_rolo: Not Jumbos :P
(2:40:28 PM) r_rolo: Balista phants ;)
(2:40:31 PM) renata: lol
(2:40:32 PM) ChrisShaffer: Lighthouse finished, begin great lighthouse
(2:40:39 PM) jerome: correct !
(2:40:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: and axe is now safely fortified in Harapura
(2:40:49 PM) renata: i keep forgetting that
(2:40:49 PM) r_rolo: Even better ;)
(2:41:13 PM) ChrisShaffer: pyramids next turn :)
(2:41:17 PM) niklas: woot!
(2:41:36 PM) renata: happy happy
(2:41:51 PM) r_rolo: Next turn message : Piramids were built in a FAR AWAY LAND :P
(2:41:58 PM) ChrisShaffer: no
(2:42:03 PM) ChrisShaffer: uMgu has two archers
(2:42:37 PM) ChrisShaffer: exploring warrior heading south
(2:42:45 PM) ChrisShaffer: galley finds ocean
(2:42:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka has cleared the jungle on the rice in uMgu
(2:43:04 PM) niklas: screenies if you find something interesting!
(2:43:09 PM) ChrisShaffer: nothing new to see yet
(2:43:14 PM) niklas: oh, shaka has IW then
(2:43:17 PM) r_rolo: Shaka has IW :(
(2:43:29 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes
(2:43:35 PM) jerome: no good
(2:43:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: apparently he does
(2:43:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: start to keep an eye out for mines on grass
(2:44:02 PM) renata: true that -- another good reason to have that warrior wander around a bit
(2:44:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: galley found deer on tundra
(2:44:12 PM) niklas: he has a hill that rolo is very suspicious of :P
(2:44:13 PM) ChrisShaffer: whee
(2:44:13 PM) r_rolo: I think he might have iron in a hill in his cap that had no forest in top 
(2:44:16 PM) renata: lol
(2:44:23 PM) renata: ah cool
(2:44:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: I'll go look at that hill asap
(2:44:37 PM) niklas: hehe, I'm on a roll today with the predictions of what people are about to say ;)
(2:44:46 PM) ChrisShaffer: but really, it's almost certain to have a mine even if it's not a resource
(2:44:49 PM) niklas: there's no sense looking since *we* don't have IW yet :P
(2:44:50 PM) renata: nice of gyathaar to give us horses and iron so close, isn't it?
(2:44:52 PM) r_rolo: predict this one :P
(2:45:02 PM) niklas: lol
(2:45:22 PM) r_rolo: Yup, the mapmaker was SO nice :(
(2:45:32 PM) ChrisShaffer: Joao has six cities now
(2:45:32 PM) r_rolo: to shaka, that is ;)
(2:45:36 PM) ChrisShaffer: no other changes in diplomacy
(2:45:42 PM) ChrisShaffer: hey, he gave us Marble
(2:45:47 PM) ChrisShaffer: and copper
(2:45:50 PM) r_rolo: how nice ;)
(2:45:52 PM) ChrisShaffer: and jumbos
(2:45:57 PM) ChrisShaffer: I have no complaints :)
(2:46:10 PM) niklas: pyramids???
(2:46:18 PM) ChrisShaffer: haven't hit end turn yet
(2:46:21 PM) ChrisShaffer: I'm slow and careful
(2:46:26 PM) niklas: good good, hehe
(2:46:31 PM) renata: haha
(2:46:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: well, it's a complete contrast to my offline games
(2:46:53 PM) ChrisShaffer: where I go way too fast
(2:47:03 PM) ChrisShaffer: I get scared here - I don't want to be the one to blame for losing the gold!
(2:47:05 PM) ChrisShaffer: :)
(2:47:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: ending turn
(2:47:22 PM) niklas: nah, we already know to blame rolo for that ;)
(2:47:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: Pyramids
(2:47:46 PM) jerome: <:o)
(2:47:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: you say you want a revolution, well you know, we all want to save the worl
(2:47:52 PM) ChrisShaffer: d
(2:47:55 PM) r_rolo: Cool
(2:48:07 PM) niklas: sweet
(2:48:11 PM) r_rolo: Now adopt police state :P
(2:48:14 PM) niklas: lol
(2:48:15 PM) ChrisShaffer: gah
(2:48:20 PM) renata: snoopy dance
(2:48:21 PM) niklas: gah what?
(2:48:34 PM) jerome: ??
(2:48:42 PM) ChrisShaffer: police state
(2:48:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: no worries
(2:48:51 PM) niklas: phew
(2:48:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: I almost built the barracks before the worker :)
(2:49:05 PM) renata: tsk tsk
(2:49:19 PM) renata: don't scare me, i'm jetlagged, i'd probably cry
(2:49:36 PM) niklas: lol
(2:50:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: reassigned workers in Hari, using rGrass now
(2:50:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: I'm guessing that's to make the whip work - not really sure why we'd stop working pHill
(2:50:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: but I trust Niklas :)
(2:50:47 PM) niklas: yes, exactly
(2:50:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: whipping is not my best skill
(2:51:04 PM) niklas: we can't reach too many hammers in Hari or we couldn't whip two pop towards the worker
(2:51:36 PM) niklas: since each pop gives 37 hammers when whipping towards a worker
(2:51:42 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka likes us enough to declare war on Joao
(2:51:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: I wasn't sure about how to do it, so I didn't try to figure out what he wanted for that
(2:52:09 PM) niklas: hehe, cool
(2:52:12 PM) ChrisShaffer: oh, right, we're expansive
(2:52:18 PM) niklas: yup
(2:52:27 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, the revolution is underway
(2:53:17 PM) renata: have to go, looking forward to the report!
(2:53:22 PM) niklas: cya Renata
(2:53:24 PM) renata left the room.
(2:53:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka has *not* mined that hill
(2:53:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, the warrior is 1E of the wheat
(2:54:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: and there's a barbarian warrior, full strength, 1S of the wheat
(2:54:30 PM) ChrisShaffer: should I fortify in hopes of getting xp 5/5, or should I move SE to avoid the barbarian and keep exploring?
(2:54:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: I am leaning toward moving SE
(2:54:53 PM) niklas: if you move S you'll end up on a forest in range of the barbie right?
(2:55:22 PM) niklas: forest hill even?
(2:55:29 PM) niklas: hard to see from unkle's screenies
(2:55:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: South is plains forest
(2:55:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: adjacent to barb
(2:55:57 PM) niklas: ok, so why not move there?
(2:56:08 PM) niklas: we'd have 50% + woodsman 1
(2:56:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: fortify gives 5% defence in place?
(2:56:20 PM) ChrisShaffer: I'm on a forest now
(2:56:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: but yes, it would
(2:56:23 PM) niklas: right, but moving keeps you moving :)
(2:56:29 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, let's take a risk
(2:56:41 PM) niklas: I don't consider that a risk, I doubt he will hit you anyway
(2:56:45 PM) ChrisShaffer: right
(2:56:47 PM) niklas: but I hope so :)
(2:56:47 PM) ChrisShaffer: moving s
(2:56:50 PM) jerome: go
(2:57:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: Galley turns the corner and finds sheep
(2:57:14 PM) ChrisShaffer: looks like I'll be able to get around the horn
(2:57:25 PM) niklas: no sign of Joao's land yet?
(2:57:28 PM) ChrisShaffer: doubt it will be blocked by ice, but can't tell for sure
(2:57:29 PM) ChrisShaffer: nope
(2:57:30 PM) methos entered the room.
(2:57:34 PM) niklas: hey methos
(2:57:42 PM) jerome: hi methos !
(2:57:45 PM) methos: hi
(2:57:56 PM) methos: wait one sec, logging back into my work
(2:58:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: barbarian attacked
(2:58:24 PM) niklas: so how did it go??
(2:58:25 PM) ChrisShaffer: we survive with 0.6/2 and 5/5 experience!  Woodsman 2 promotion coming right up
(2:58:31 PM) niklas: sweeeeeeet!
(2:58:35 PM) ChrisShaffer: brb, 2 min
(2:59:27 PM) ChrisShaffer: representation
(2:59:37 PM) jerome: lets hope joao has not yet chopped everything ;)
(2:59:45 PM) ChrisShaffer: woodsman 2, 1.4/2
(2:59:47 PM) r_rolo: what? No police state? :(
(2:59:49 PM) ChrisShaffer: I believe I will heal
(2:59:54 PM) niklas: how many turns?
(2:59:57 PM) ChrisShaffer: 2 turns, on forest
(3:00:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: ah, no, 3 turns
(3:00:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: what do you think
(3:00:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: my inclination is to heal before continuing
(3:00:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: next space is non-forest, so would be exposed
(3:00:42 PM) jerome: i'd heal
(3:00:47 PM) niklas: I'd move ;)
(3:00:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: hmm
(3:01:01 PM) niklas: your call
(3:01:06 PM) ChrisShaffer: rolo, methos, opinions?
(3:01:20 PM) niklas: actually, I change my mind
(3:01:20 PM) ChrisShaffer: let me do the other stuff, you all can keep discussing
(3:01:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: lots to check this turn
(3:01:47 PM) niklas: due to W2, you can take that forest hill in stride once you've healed up, no need to stop there
(3:01:52 PM) niklas: so heal first saves you moves
(3:01:59 PM) methos: what is the defense of the tile he's on?
(3:02:05 PM) niklas: plains forest
(3:02:10 PM) niklas: with woodsman 2
(3:02:23 PM) niklas: so unless an archer comes along, he should be fine
(3:02:27 PM) niklas: or axe of course
(3:02:31 PM) methos: is there a tile close by that we prefer to be at? or something specific we wish to do quickly?
(3:02:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes
(3:02:36 PM) methos: if not, then heal, otherwise move
(3:02:41 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes, niklas is right
(3:02:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: and no, there isn't a better tile in easy range for healing
(3:02:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka is back to 'we would have nothing to gain' from attacking Joao
(3:03:16 PM) niklas: ok, due to shifts in power rating probably
(3:03:18 PM) jerome: still no tech trading ?
(3:03:24 PM) r_rolo: that is because of the number of cities Joćo has
(3:03:38 PM) r_rolo: lots of cities = lots of pop
(3:03:47 PM) niklas: agreed
(3:04:26 PM) ChrisShaffer: Capital switches to galley
(3:04:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: no tech trading available yet :( nobody new met :( on the other hand, no bad random events :)
(3:05:31 PM) niklas: hehe, I would be almost as frustrated about good events ;)
(3:05:38 PM) niklas: if they mess up the planning that is :P
(3:05:39 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, time for a screenshot
(3:06:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: http://gesserit.net/smurkz/screen.png
(3:06:54 PM) jerome: wheeee screenshot !!!!
(3:06:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: so, that's the situation with the warrior
(3:07:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: and now I'm halfway on the fence, I want to explore
(3:07:35 PM) niklas: nah, stay put ;)
(3:07:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: so, should I spend 3 turns healing, or move SE
(3:07:39 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok
(3:07:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: I figure next exploring move is SE?
(3:08:07 PM) ChrisShaffer: but he, that's three turns from now, so next turnset
(3:08:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, about to end turn 87
(3:08:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: everything according to plan so far
(3:08:53 PM) niklas: great
(3:09:05 PM) ChrisShaffer: by the way, we're #1 in score of the three known civs
(3:09:22 PM) jerome: yeah but last on power i guess...
(3:09:27 PM) jerome: ;)
(3:09:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: great scientist born
(3:09:55 PM) r_rolo: well, too bad that does not count for much :P
(3:10:08 PM) niklas: what's the beaker count now?
(3:10:11 PM) niklas: and what turn is it?
(3:10:36 PM) methos: we have a GS?
(3:11:13 PM) niklas: yes we do
(3:11:18 PM) niklas: though not for long
(3:11:34 PM) ChrisShaffer: founded academy
(3:11:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: it is turn 88
(3:11:40 PM) jerome: good
(3:11:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: time to whip the worker in Hari
(3:12:35 PM) niklas: yup
(3:12:38 PM) niklas: *whip*
(3:12:43 PM) niklas: love that smiley :D
(3:13:21 PM) jerome: i like your running smiley too btw
(3:13:35 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka has rice and is willing to trade it to us
(3:13:47 PM) ChrisShaffer: shoudl I cancel the fish and resign?
(3:13:52 PM) niklas: sure, no reason not to
(3:14:08 PM) niklas: that means we can gift away one more thing later if nothing else
(3:14:30 PM) ChrisShaffer: damn, my cat is puking up a hairball
(3:14:33 PM) methos: we still only know shaka, correct?
(3:14:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: we also know Joao, but have no trade route
(3:14:47 PM) ChrisShaffer: and still haven't found his land
(3:14:56 PM) r_rolo: No, we bet Joćo in the end of last turnset
(3:15:01 PM) r_rolo: *met
(3:15:11 PM) methos: sorry, been rather busy
(3:15:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: well, bummer
(3:15:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: cancelled fish, and now he doesn't want it
(3:15:39 PM) methos: odd
(3:15:43 PM) jerome: mmm
(3:15:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: the only thing he will take for the fish is gold
(3:15:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: oh well, we're still gifting him pigs
(3:15:58 PM) niklas: you mean rice I take it
(3:15:58 PM) methos: wonder if he's getting fish somewhere else?
(3:16:02 PM) ChrisShaffer: er, the only thing he will take for the rice
(3:16:03 PM) ChrisShaffer: right
(3:16:10 PM) niklas: very odd indeed
(3:16:12 PM) niklas: oh well
(3:16:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: duh
(3:16:19 PM) ChrisShaffer: Nobamba has fish
(3:16:23 PM) niklas: right, of course
(3:16:26 PM) ChrisShaffer: can't see if they're netted
(3:16:27 PM) ChrisShaffer: oh well
(3:16:31 PM) niklas: they must be
(3:16:37 PM) methos: must be netted
(3:17:00 PM) ChrisShaffer: we're now slightly ahead of shaka on espionage
(3:17:08 PM) ChrisShaffer: no alphabet trading yet, darn it
(3:17:40 PM) methos: I take it we're still a long way from seeing what he's researching?
(3:17:42 PM) niklas: not all that unexpected
(3:18:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: eleven turns from now we will be able to see his research
(3:19:03 PM) niklas: not likely
(3:19:14 PM) niklas: the cost increases as he spends points towards us
(3:19:44 PM) ChrisShaffer: ah, shit, I got very scared
(3:19:49 PM) ChrisShaffer: and I screwed up just a tiny bit
(3:19:53 PM) ChrisShaffer: we got Literature on turn 89
(3:19:54 PM) methos: uh oh
(3:20:01 PM) ChrisShaffer: I should have set research to 0% a few turns back
(3:20:04 PM) ChrisShaffer: will do it now
(3:20:15 PM) ChrisShaffer: but I saw literature and thought "I was supposed to whip last turn!"
(3:20:19 PM) niklas: that's no big deal
(3:20:19 PM) ChrisShaffer: it's good, no events yet
(3:20:22 PM) ChrisShaffer: yup
(3:20:27 PM) niklas: what's our treasury these days?
(3:20:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: 18, at -5 per turn
(3:20:45 PM) ChrisShaffer: so this turn, I'll set 100% gold
(3:20:48 PM) niklas: ok, time for an infusion then
(3:20:59 PM) methos: we haven't received any event yet?
(3:21:15 PM) niklas: you remembered to insert the galley at the right point?
(3:21:19 PM) niklas: no events no
(3:21:25 PM) ChrisShaffer: damnit
(3:21:29 PM) ChrisShaffer: galley got cut off by ice
(3:21:44 PM) niklas: heh, long way back then, but nothing to do
(3:21:46 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes, switched to galley a while back
(3:22:21 PM) niklas: so how many turns would it take that galley to reach home now?
(3:22:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: Ulundi 3 axes 1 archer, not sure where settler went
(3:22:34 PM) ChrisShaffer: many
(3:22:44 PM) methos: do we want it to come home, or is there someplace else we'd rather send it?
(3:22:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: not many options - it's down a long corridor of ocean and ice
(3:23:01 PM) niklas: if he got cut off by ice, there's really no other place for it to go
(3:23:11 PM) niklas: weird that we haven't met someone there though
(3:23:19 PM) niklas: this continent must be pretty big
(3:23:36 PM) niklas: hmm, we need a crossing by the cows south of Shaka
(3:24:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: whipping galley
(3:24:26 PM) niklas: hammer count still correct?
(3:25:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: yes
(3:25:29 PM) ChrisShaffer: matches exactly
(3:25:31 PM) ChrisShaffer: good job
(3:25:48 PM) niklas: :)
(3:27:20 PM) ChrisShaffer: the spreadsheet for Hari is wrong
(3:27:33 PM) ChrisShaffer: but it's ok, we're two food ahead for some reason
(3:27:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: barracks completes as planned
(3:27:44 PM) niklas: heh, ok
(3:27:50 PM) jerome: whipping miscount ?
(3:28:01 PM) ChrisShaffer: dunno
(3:28:04 PM) jerome: i'll not worry for this too much...
(3:28:06 PM) ChrisShaffer: it's a food problem, not hammers
(3:28:09 PM) jerome: ;)
(3:28:10 PM) ChrisShaffer: no need to worry abou tit
(3:28:18 PM) methos: and its extra, instead of less
(3:28:29 PM) niklas: yeah, the fpt values look very weird for Hari from turn 88 on
(3:28:54 PM) niklas: ah no, only turn 88 is wron
(3:28:56 PM) niklas: g
(3:29:01 PM) niklas: should be 2, not 0
(3:29:04 PM) ChrisShaffer: Shaka is willing to declare war on Joao again
(3:29:09 PM) ChrisShaffer: well, that explains the discrepancy
(3:29:18 PM) ChrisShaffer: I'll let you fix it for the next turnset :)
(3:29:55 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, about to end turn and go to turn 90 to end the turnset
(3:30:57 PM) jerome: sounds grrrreat !
(3:31:43 PM) ChrisShaffer: well, bad news I'm afraid
(3:31:51 PM) ChrisShaffer: I never thought to check on the worker building the fort
(3:31:56 PM) ChrisShaffer: who will not complete it until turn 91
(3:31:58 PM) niklas: how so?
(3:32:00 PM) niklas: huh?
(3:32:04 PM) niklas: you sure?
(3:32:07 PM) ChrisShaffer: not sure how that happened, he was building it during my entire turnset
(3:32:13 PM) niklas: he should definitely finish this turn
(3:32:15 PM) ChrisShaffer: oh, wait, maybe he finishes it this turn
(3:32:17 PM) ChrisShaffer: right
(3:32:22 PM) niklas: right, he should
(3:32:23 PM) ChrisShaffer: I forgot he hasn't taken his turn yet
(3:32:27 PM) niklas: indeed
(3:32:38 PM) ChrisShaffer: and the hammers from the overflow haven't been applied yet
(3:32:40 PM) niklas: I thought that would explain it so I was never really worried there ;)
(3:32:40 PM) ChrisShaffer: whew
(3:34:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, the fort is complete
(3:34:32 PM) ChrisShaffer: but the capital does not show marble resource
(3:34:37 PM) ChrisShaffer: I assume it will appear on end-turn?
(3:34:47 PM) niklas: aye, it will be recomputed
(3:34:48 PM) ChrisShaffer: anyway, I"m going to take a few screenshots, save, and be done
(3:34:59 PM) ChrisShaffer: relieved to have an event free turnset
(3:35:07 PM) r_rolo: I want shiny pictures :P
(3:35:45 PM) ChrisShaffer: coming soon
(3:37:17 PM) niklas: everything sounds good
(3:37:34 PM) niklas: I'll take a walk with the dogs and check that report when I get back
(3:40:16 PM) ChrisShaffer: ok, saved, getting ready to submit and report on web
(3:40:24 PM) ChrisShaffer: thanks for the advice and camradarie
(3:40:30 PM) niklas: cool, a good job
(3:40:35 PM) niklas: cya later
