Thank you, CG. I appreciate it. I believe we should just keep Poly, as our neighbors are too poor to repay our research. Sure we can get a decent deal from the Zulus, but everyone else gets a free step closer to Monarchy and the Hanging Gardens. Let's hold on to it, and make them research Poly the many turns we did.

We need to get mathematics, so I voted for 1. Any tech lead advantage we can get we need to take.

blackheart · Sep 4, 2004

I voted for #1 and none. While we need mathematics, that deal is just not sweet enough.

Justinian I · Sep 4, 2004

I am all for gaining technologies any way possible. I find philosophy to be a dead end, anyway. I feel that trade #1 will benefit us a lot, I urge you to make this trade ASAP in the next turn chat.

i voted for 1, my reasons are found in the discussion
i also voted for abstain for the heck of it

I, as a citizen, would like to recommend this trade sequence:

Code:

Step 1:
We Give		Zulus Give
Polytheism 2nd	Mathaematics 2nd
		52 Gold

Step 2:
We give		French Give
Mathaematics 3rd	25 Gold

Step 3 (unless objected to by Military Ministry):
We Give		Babylonians Give
Math 4th or Writing (?)	25 Gold

Trading our newly acquired Mathematics will save the more valuable Polytheism as a bargining chip for Code of Laws and Philosoply or perhaps even Map Making.

So now I must also protest your lack of an "other" in the poll.

EDIT: I must ALSO protest the use of only 1 Trade. What, may I ask, is the Trade Minister thinking? That we execute only 1 trade per TC? This will put us behind in the tech race for sure!
