Well, Governess CT left us with these queues:

Strider's Haven - [c]Pikeman(1), [c]Pikeman(6), Marketplace(20)
The Burrow - switch to University(3), Cathedral(12)
Palanthus - [c]Pikeman(1), Courthouse(~10 after mm), [c]Marketplace(~20), [c]Pikeman(~6)
Dacula - [c]Courthouse(7), [c]Temple(~20)
Goonidom - [c]Library(35)
Penguin - [c]Temple(54)
New PDX - [c]Temple(18)
Clevland - [c]Library(8), Barracks(10), Temple(30)
Tarkingrad - [c]Barracks(1), [c]Worker(4), Pikeman(~10)

Micromanage

Bavaria & Morgana - Remove Bavaria's forest tiles (the ones South and Southeast of the game) to let Morgana use them (those were also FortyJ's orders last turn chat - should have been done on turn 6. Please do so immediately). Four of the coastal tiles should be on the 4 forest tiles for the time being.

Put Morgana's worked tiles as follows:

And Bavaria like this: (FortyJ and I talked it over in the chatroom)

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads3/bavaria_670AD.jpg

Penguin - Move all worked tiles (except for the game) to the coast. (again, should have been done turn 4 of the last turn chat)

Clevland - Mine one of the plains next to Clevland. On turn 9, make sure it is using that mined tile.

Tarkingrad - On turn 5, place the worked tile on the grassland to speed up Tarkingrad's growth.

Palanthus - On turn one (as not to affect any possible trade deals, and it's not nessecary for the pike), remove 4 worked tiles on the coast (not the fish). This will create a WLTKD in the great city.

Eklektikos - Make sure you do the micromanagement. ;)

Currently its:
Morgana - [c]University(8), Marketplace(15), Aquaduct(15), Temple(9)
Strider's Haven - [c]Marketplace(19) University (20) Knight(14)
The Burrow - [c]University(1), Cathedral(12), Courthouse (9)
Palanthus - [c] Courthouse(15), Marketplace(20), Pikeman(6), Knight(14)
Dacula - [c]Courthouse(5), Temple(20), University (34)
Goonidom - [c]Library(33), Pikeman (30)
Penguin - [c]Temple(52), Courthouse (80), Worker (10)
New PDX - [c]Temple(16), University (34)
Clevland - [c]Library(6), Barracks(10), Temple(30) (NAME ME)
Tarkingrad - [c]Worker(2), Pikeman(10), Pikeman (10)


Now Regarding Science, I have gone through the cities and I have found a few which placing a scientist in will hurt neither production nor growth. These cities are:
Penguin
Dacula
Goonidum

These three cities would help our science output! I urge Science to look into more cities that could help.

Micromanaging to follow

Congratulations on winning the Taliesin governorship Stuck! The science department really needs a scientist in at least one of the cities, so maybe it could be in yours? Congrats on wining.

Congratulations to Palanthus, The Burrow, Strider's Haven and Morgana! They have been named some of Fanatika's top 18 cities.
In other news, I am pleased to announce the begining of our Official "Name Cleveland Contest". Here is the contest to name our American defector. A few rules:
-No naming after yourself, or any other DGer
-No naming it after another City
-Try to have it to have something to do with America and Celtic tradition (name of the province)
That said, Good Luck

Micromanaging:
Morgana- Keep workers as is.
The Burrow- Please move worker in forest onto irrigated tile. This allows growth to continue and does not harm production.
Striders Haven- Keep workers as is.
Tarkingrad- Keep workers as is.
Cleveland-(name me!) Keep workers as is.
Dacula- Convert southern most worker into scientist. This will increase time by 2, but make science 38. (making court7, temple30 and uni50)
New PDX- Keep as is
Palanthus- Keep as is
Goonidum- Keep as is
Penguin- Take southernmost laborer and convert to scientist.

Thus is micromanaging.

Ok, for the city name, I propose:

1st choice - The Highlands: One of the things that modern Scotland is famous for. (Scots and Irish are descendants from the Celts)
2nd choice - Epona: Celtic Mythology, symbolizing horses. Great for our knights and cavalry. :)
3rd choice - Morrigan: Celtic Mythology, symbolizing war. Perfect for our warmongering nature this game. :)

I did not see a poll to change a city name to The Highlands. Please post instructions to change the name back until proper approval is recieved.

A newly elected governor may request name changes for cities within his/her province. This can only be done in the first week of the governor's term of office. The governor will post a poll with the suggested name change in an APPROVED / DISAPPROVED / ABSTAIN format and a 2 day or longer time frame. Popular support will allow or deny the proposed name change.

RE: WAR WITH INDIA

We must halt any production of improvements in your province. Concentrate on building military units only. All gold is for Military and Foreign Affairs, please do not request to rush any improvements until this war is over.

Glory... Glory.....
Even I cannot ignore the call to arms. The bell will toll for the Indians, and Ill stop my Hemmingway references.I am taking all cities off of production. This province will become strickly military based.
The Morgana Knights shall ride again!
Also- Can we go on the offensive once the cities have been reclaimed?
I will outline a basic queue for myself when I return to my computer (Im @ school right now)

*from a carrier pigeon*

Governor! As former governor of the grandest province in Fanatika, I ask that Taliesin's true colors show as the grandest military province in the land! Taliesin's Golden Age is upon us! Gather the finest men of fighting age to form musket troops for the defense of the province! Train our pikemen so they don't cower in fear of the elephants! I only hope the Age of Cavalry comes swiftly!

Just writing this down here, so when I queue i come back to it:
[09:14] <@Chieftess> It's at size 12
[09:15] <@Chieftess> After each worker, it can be micromanaged.
[09:15] <Stuck_as_a_Mac> harbor in 1, then granary in4?
[09:15] <@Chieftess> granary in 12
[09:15] <@Chieftess> A harbor would give it that 5th food per turn.
[09:15] <Stuck_as_a_Mac> ok
[09:15] <@Chieftess> That's 4 turns for growth.
[09:15] <Stuck_as_a_Mac> which is needed for the worker
[09:15] <Stuck_as_a_Mac> lemme write this down

Re: Palanthus Marketplace

I agree, Palanthus does need a market, followed by a bank, quickly. But the need for workers is great too. With the advent of railroads upon us, I believe that the workers will help in the cause of the Fanatikan National Railway. When Palanthus finishes its granary, I will have it go to a marketplace. Then im going to churn out workers for the next term.

See you all in T6!

As Mayor of the Great City of Palanthus I agree! Please see this post (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=741903#post741903) Governor!

We already have 17 domestic workers and 51 foreign workers. We look to pick up an Indian and 2 Russian workers next turn. Let's give Palanthus it's market! It's one of the largest cities we have!

If food is what you want then Palanthus can easily produce a surplus of 10 food per turn! We do not need a granary in Palanthus. :)
