The Sweetness and Light Game

More Sweetness

OK you guys - I'm back - married, but unbowed (he lies) - the delay was caused more by frantic exam setting than by nuptuals, but such is life....

==========

0660 = Bewilderment - we have no trade routes to speak of - no harbours - NO FLOWERS - and the AI are abrim with useful techs - let us diplome - but first - Lux to 40% rush Aqueduct in Mean City get celebration there - now -- Romans - Seafaring - We can build Harbours -- Spanish - Mathematics -- Gift an Encarta to the Indians - tech multiplier 30 (we started with Bronze) - someone has been rehoming caravans!!! :bad: This is NO LONGER ALLOWED - OK it wasn't in the rules, but we didn't think we needed to say that!!! some tickling

0680 = Aqueduct in Mean City; Gold, Pool of Grace-Mean City, 28g; Gold, Sticky Meanie - Heaven's Gate, 28g; tickle
0700 = much tickling
0720 = Harbour in Mean City; much tickling;
0740 = Wine, Maxwell's Hammer - Mean City, 50g; and much tickling; Science back to 50%; Wine(d), Bad leroy Brown-Beggarsville, 54g;
0760 = Library in Mean City now size 12; lux to 20 science to 70; much tickling;
0780 = tickling
0800 = Medicine->Astronomy; tickling
0820 = Library in Pool of Grace; tickle
0840 = minor tickle
0860 = Salt (rehomed), Mean City - Antium, 146g; Spice, Mean City - Antium, 150g; tickle
0880 = Astronomy-> Banking; Dye(d), Mean City - Antium, 300g; Americans - Banking & maps; Gold, Mean City - Antium, 150g; frantic tickling
0900 = Copernicus' Observatory in Mean City; tickle
0920 = tickle;
0940 = Temple in Maxwell's Hammer; University in Mean City;
0960 = tickle
0980 = Theory of Gravity->Navigation; tickle
1000 = tickle

1040 = Gems, Sticky Meanie-Ur, 452g; ;
1060 = Navigation->Sanitation; MarketPlace in Pool of Grace; Salt, Maxwell's Hammer-Mean City (unblocking), 27g;

Sanitation is a quarter of the way in; Shake's builds on the turn; Mean City scheduled for explosive development after Sewer System & Bank (hint, hint); triremes coming home to disband into Caravels for ship chain to Rome (hint, hint, hint); Food caravans on the way for Ike's - looks pretty good - we fancy getting to Commie & building a zillion vet spies prior to Jihad.

We actually played most of these turns on my [1] 'Stag Night' - sad sad people that we are!

The Gits once more in concert and only half way through the second

We played 20 turns so please play 10 turns each now.

I was down to finish it myself - but along came two other games that had to be played.

Clearly, the Rabbit point of view is "one" dimensional; whereas, I believe, the RAR will have planned a layered approach to the campaign with multiple vectors of exploitation.

Actually, I am not so concerned about the delay as I have been quite ill the past week and could not play either. It would be nice to have a "I'm on the case" post, or, so I do suppose.

[Bloody Monk]

Oh, I saw that. I was more impacted by the date on the post. Good taste compels against speculating about the cause of the delay; but, whatever, it has been nearly a week.

So, The honeymoon can wait...

Careful... [1] may have mellowed since becoming a married man, but he was very emphatic that it was HIS turn, last week

Look 5 posts up

I'm uncertain, but I believe it stems from the bush that hung outside medieval inns to denote their status - so people 'living over the bush' occupied rooms in these inns oftimes illicitly.

Yes - I have required my 'seconds' to perform the ritual character assassination of the groom - so help (2) out.

I assume that's some sort of cohabitation without benefit of marriage,
but never encountered this expression before...
Etymology?
