Department of Turnplay

Take your full time if possible. The Babe treaty is in the making and, as I said before, I think it's imperative we have it signed, seald & delivered before we start whipping cult, or at least before the effect of that starts to show on F8.

but that won't happen until after feud will it?
 
No it won't, but with the speed of the turns we've had there could be prob's if we end up in lengthy revisions of the draft. I've seen it happening before. Some made a point of Free/Council seeming to "outplay" the speed of diplomacy and I figure that's a clever point. They have a solid treaty going and will do what they can to prevent others from getting the same. Better for them that turns are played faster than diplo is done.
 
Ah I missed the edit, didnt you just have the pm to Whomp at first? Good clarification on the military strength, I guess we wont know anything until we get contact with someone else.
 
I wasnt clear (im often not :))The message in the Babe Diplo thread, "PM to Whomp", I missed that you edited the same post and put in their answer and your answer back clarifying that they had been strong to everyone the whole time.
 
Holding off til tomorrow to play the save is the order of the day I take it. Any new info on the treaty?
 
Hello all.... Back from Las Vegas... tired and dehydrated... "108F, but it's a dry heat!"

Very interesting happenings, actually, the most interesting item is the non-happening that the GLib is still out there and we're 4 turns away. I still question the "4 turns" since we're about to come to the end of our GA. The fact that Sabre is still sitting technologically idle and has boosted the population in a core city is interesting. If they have not popped the GLib by now and we're just hearing about the addition of workers then that bodes well for us. But the fact that they're sitting technologically idle does mean they're going for the GLib and is going to make the next 4, or so, turns vey nerve racking.

Now that I'm back in town I'll use this as an opportunity to ping Whomper w/ a PM and ask about the treaty, etc.

I wonder if Sabre, as a team, is a bit dejected at not landing a reliable trading partner, and has been playing turns on auto-pilot. Thoughts?
 
I spoke w/ Whomper... if we can shorten the build of the GLib by a turn at the expense of a turn on Mono then so be it. The GLib is highest priority for the Babes.
 
Alas, still nothing from Babes in mailbox as I write this.

Those snotty little wenches! Spankings for the lot of them!

When I sent my PM I got a reply from Whomp in about 10 minutes. And here we are 24 hours later and nothing! I also just checked the mailbox and can confirm there's nothing there from the Babes.

Well, I say we go on a communication blackout of the Babes for the time being and consider our next move. I'm thinking insults and blonde jokes. Maybe even go so low as to accuse them of Swedish ancestry. Oh wait, that's me. Nevermind.

BTW, that is fantastic news on the GLib front. Please make sure that city stays happy and at 21spt, or more.
 
What is the etiquette for creating an embassy? - a view of the Babes capital would probably be worth the gold, or did they already create one in ours? in which case they would be aware of a relatively tight city spacing from which they could draw certain conclusions...
 
Our core cities around the capital are pretty normally spaced, so they couldnt tell probably much from that. If they could see our number of cities though, that would be the big tipoff.
 
I just wanted to bump this thread and spread the word that we have a treaty w/ the Babes.

See the Babe Diplo thread for the details.
