Lordship of Development

I agree with the moves you layed out in fallowtimes2a.jpg (nice work by the way). We both agree on : former to solar now and Fallow Times to build former now. So at least we have that much out of the way.

BTW, you're right that I meant to forest to the N and not NW. Note that either base could then use that forest, as needed

I'm heading off to take a big chill. I should be around by 12:00 Apolyton time, but if the turn comes and you want to play it, go ahead Net, or Illuminatus (yeah!). I've lost my marbles today.

Ok, I'm really heading off now. But I checked the turn thread and it just went to Sparta an hour ago. This means it's a good idea if we nail down our turn pronto.
Estimated time of Spartan turn-post: 11:00
Our goal for posting: 19:00 poly time.

Someone want to recap and make some decisions about the issues still at hand? It would do us proud to make another post on average or better-than-average time. A few more of those and I think we'll have the turn-play respect of the other teams during this troubling time (damn E_N).

Recap the decisions made, I will play the turn if neccesary.

[smacksim]

Former: Start solar
Independent Scout: No decision. Move NE makes sense.
New scout: Move south from Fallow time.

Start Former in Fallow Time.

Keep in mind, only Net Warrior and I have been around (with a pop in from Hydro) for the last few days. We made a good debate team and turn team. We don't agree on very much, which is excellent, but leaves all the above decisions a bit up in the air. I pre-agree to whatever is implemented on this one. I have to go.

Does anyone else advocate moving scout to the tile west of our first scout? It doesn't matter which one, but we need to scout west, and we need to troll fungus. Perhaps moving both scouts into fungus squares (one south, one west).

[Net Warrior]

Illuminatus, please have a look at "fallowtimes2a.jpg" posted by smacksim on the previous page. It shows the path he and I agreed upon for our scouts. The FTSP was to move S thru the fungus to pop the pod 3 tiles away. The ISP was to move N into the fungus but I don't object to W into the fungus instead.

[Illuminatus]

Okay.

[smacksim]

I'm alive. So we are agreed then? Excellent. I'll keep an eye out for the turn, which seems to be sitting with Sparta.

Plan of Action for 2105:

I believe we have agreement on the following 6 items:

1. The FTSP is to move S thru the fungus to pop the pod in 3.
2. The ISP is to move either N or W into the fungus.
3. The former is to start on a solar collector.
4. Fallow Time is to begin building a former.
5. The worker at Fallow Times should work the rolling rainy tile.
6. Maintain energy allocation at optimal for research.

There are differing opinions on what to build at Gaia’s Landing but since we have less than 10 minerals accumulated, it need not be resolved now.

Edit: I'm off again till 13:00 or so. Play the turn if it comes. It'll surprise 'em. I've been checking it hourly just for the shock value.

I will be around till 4:00 or so Apolyton time, tomorrow, to play the turn. I will also do an update on predicting the next turns at that time. Things slowed down for the other teams over this last turn, understandably.

I'm here. I'm heading to play the turn. -S

Will post pics and presend save in a bit. The server is really sluggish.

[smacksim]

Plan carried through. We discovered a river, no MW yet.

[Net Warrior]

Well, things are looking up! I guess there's nothing left to do other than hit turn complete and send off our move in record time.
I'll start a thread for 2106 in a while

As an aside, a new thread per turn will also sweep away any obsolete threads. Neatness does counts, right?

[smacksim]

Let's keep links between the turn threads too. Perhaps an index will shortly be in order.
