Sorry if my spreadsheet is one turn out. I'll correct it for GOTM19.
Here is what I did up till 1000BC. It's a bit boring I'm afraid.
1425BC. Trade Iroquois Mathematics for contact with Rome and 62G. How they don't have contact with Rome by now beats me.
1350BC. Found Georgovia.
1300BC. Found Lleocantores. Buy Philosophy from Iroquois for 92G. Must be my birthday.
1275BC. Aztechs demand 24G. I'm really tempted to refuse and allow a war, but I'm still a few turns from being ready. I give in.
1250BC. Get Map making from Rome for Poly + 22G. Then I trade maps with everyone selling my world map for territory map + gold.
Generally this is probably not a good idea, but I wanted to impress everyone with how much of the world I know at 1000BC.
Why doesn't this make up part of the QSC score?
1125BC. Found Brempovia. Trade code of laws with the good ol' Iroquois for WM and 138G.
1100BC. Found Syrplebonum near (roman) horses. Unfortunately 1 turn too late. So I start a temple. Those horses will know on which side their bread is buttered.
1075BC. Found Augustodurum.
This could go on for ever. Build settler, found city build worker etc. I have to make something happen soon. I have 11 cities with two settlers in transit. This is probably a bit better than I expected to do. I have 12 warriors which I will upgrade to UU. I needed a baracks for that, so I built one. I took a peek at the Barb peninsula too a few turns after the timeline ends. The volcanos were gone and the fog had a path through it. The french, carthags, iroqouis and Aztech all had units in there, and I watched them all die horribly. This is a lot earlier than in my proper GOTM. Now I just want to find a way of playing the pied piper and leading them to Gay Paris. (Silent S).
As I said earlier, I'll play the last couple of turns and post about the next 10 turns tonight.
:Here is my savegame
I lost track of worker numbers a couple of turns from the end, but this timeline is still reasonable
