Turn 34

[Shiber]

Good thing we have wheat in the south.
Btw, what's our planned build queue for Cyclone? I suppose we'd want to start with a granary.

[Randolph]

THe Legos are (I think) the only civ that has build two settlers. I'm happy for them, as long as they aren't an immediate threat I wish the best for them.

[Dominae]

ND has at least 2 Settlers built. This is from the F11 screen.

Everyone will think we just build a worker

That's three turns in a row at +2 for Legos, if I remember right.

Yes, it is.

Can anyone read this? It came back from the e-mail to Demogyptica and I want to make sure it's not an error message. (Edit: Sabotaged the e-mail address.)

This is a confirmation that you have sent the e mail to darekill

no guaranty the receiver has read or understud it. But it has reached it's destination.


Sounds like a deny receipt to me. , he probably clicked no instead of yes, or hasn't done so yet.
* I'm pretty certain of the translation, maybe not literally.

[nbarclay]

Sounds like you got the gist. Thanks. Actually, it's a normal return receipt. The "no guarantee" bit is a fairly standard disclaimer (used by some systems but not others) to remind the sender that just because the email was displayed on a person's screen doesn't mean he bothered to read it.

The funny thing is, that's right! (if you disregard the settler we have just completed)

[nbarclay]

If they saw how quickly we jumped to size 5 after reaching size 4, they ought to be able to figure out the truth. Still, we can always hope. It also occurs to me that thanks to the planned chops, anyone who's watching really closely will probably assume we have a better settler pump than we really do - a 4-turn one instead of a 5-turn one.

[Harovan]

I'm up now, and heading to work. Well done, with the turn. It's moving fast, indeed. As for the confirmation message, Nathan, you have this feature enabled too. It's a bit annoying, to be honest. Another thing: Please remove me from your mailing list. I'm fetching the central GS mailbox anyway and this way I get every screenshot mail twice.

[alva]

Are we sure the chop bonus goes to EOTS? We don't have to switch hurricane to a wonder or so?
(chopping 3 more turns right? Turns go faster then my average SP games ATM )

[nbarclay]

Hurricane finishes the worker before the chop, which comes in four turns if I recall correctly. After that, we'll need to prebuild a wonder (or I'm almost positive a palace can also work; I should be able to doublecheck before we need to take action in that regard). Assuming a palace prebuild achieves the same goal, that wouldn't catch Vox's attention the way a wonder might (for better or for worse).

[asleepathewheel]

Probably a dumb question, but is the wonder screen being checked to see if vox is building one? I doubt they would, since they are quite paranoid and probably arming for war.


Is ther anymore news or thoughts on who is their neighbor?
