Thanks Oblivion. I'm not sure if we'll need it, since we're so close to end game but if you'd like to join up go reply over there.

I should be the last person complaining about a game stall, but we seem to have hit a bit of a snag here.
Oh, man, I goofed up. I needed some time off (lots of RL stuff to do) until tomorrow, but I looked at the wrong week on my calander. 
According to my sig, I was supposed to be back last week, and I just got done today. I 
My apologies...

When will you be able to play SC?
Soon, all I have left to do college-wise is buy my books and such.

Awesome... have you played a turn set yet? If not, go ahead and ask the team for direction on how to take your 20... or are we doing 10 now??

We have been doing 10 for a while now Alerum 
In fact, you did 10 on your last turn

Really? Wow, shows how long it's been since I've played this.
Yes, I've played a turn or two in this SG.

I'm back in the land of the $1.25 coke. When a beer and a coke cost the same, well frankly a lot more beer is drunk than normal... 
A little more delay on SCs part, and I may have been able to play my spot. Good turns guys. Its seems the AI is starting to pull ahead tech-wise. Should we start shoring up some gold piles to get some trading going? Feudalism will be a strong tech to trade with...
Have we switched governments yet? Any thoughts? Quick wars with Republic or domination with Monarchy?

Yeah, SC how's it coming? I think we're in day 4 since you claimed the game.
When did I claim the game?
Well, since it seems I HAVE, I might as well go play it. Consider this a got it.

We gotta start enforcing a stricter pickup and play policy if we don't want this game to crash during the summer.
We can lax up later on, but right now it seems if we don't force the game to move, it simply won't.

Oh well. I'll catch it next time around. Go to it SC!

SmellinCoffee came on tonight and said he needs to be skipped. Has College Prep to take care off. Umm... he can come on and refute me if I'm wrong, but I think we should consider him on autoskip until he says otherwise. So the roster is down to 6 right now. I don't think we'll need a replacement player until he says he won't be back for longer then expected. I guess that means I'm up. TO help prevent this game from dragging any longer, I'll play 10 tonight... but Simpsons comes first.

Turn 0 (270BC) - Turn 114. How do we always get so out of balance on the turns?! I'll play til turn 120, and pass it off then.
MM a bit.
Kick France and Mongolia out of our lands.
Switch Calcutta, Bombay, Banglore, and Madras to Marketplaces.
Notice we're still in Despotism, with a religious civ, and we have Republic. Bite the bullet, and revolt. Pull 2 turns... I miss 1 turn anarchy.
Our military is strongest in the world right now. After the anarchy I'm going to build mainly infra with only light unit builds.
We have no more city site. None. After this next settler builds in Delhi, I'm going to switch to marketplace, and let it grow.
IBT
Chichen Izta completes The Great Wall.
French switch to Temple of Art
Turn 1(250BC)
Not much. Just a few worker turns.
IBT
Anarchy ends, and we switch to Republic.
Iro start on The Statue of Zeus
Turn 2 (230BC)
Change Bangel from a 4th worker city to a harbor.
Change Trondheim from 3rd worker city to courthouse.
Leave other 2 cities making workers.
MM to get the most out of our cities. I think it's time for the capitol to be shut off as a factory, or very close. Will pump out another settler or 2 on my watch, then suggest we switch.
Why is Park Avenue building a spearman without a barracks? Tisk, tisk. Switch to Barracks
IBT
Oops. Calcutta riots. Scroll ahead to make sure no one else does. Don't know how I missed that.
Turn 3 (210BC)
MM a bit. No trade, no unit moves, just some worker action.
IBT
forest chop in Bombay helps marketplace along.
Delhi Settler - > Marketplace
Lahore worker - > marketplace
Jaipur Temple - > barracks
Turn 4 (190BC)
worker actions.
No trade, just some more MMing.
IBT
forest chop in jaipur
Ottomans and Iroquois sign a MA against Persia!!! They'll probably be gone soon.
Turn 5 (170BC)
Worker actions and MMing again. Still no trades.
IBT
Hyderabad worker - > worker --- This City should maintain a worker every 5 turns at it's current size, but you have to move a citizen from the lake to a hill on growth.
Engineering comes around, but we can't afford it.. we're lossing gold at a min sci run! Need those marketplaces to build to have any hope. We may want to start a short war with the Iroquois just to eat up some units, and they are our closest neighbors. Should do it soon... after my turns, need to be disccused.
Turn 6 (150BC)
Notice we have 3 other settlers just forted in Delhi, doing nothing. so the one I just built 2 turns ago joins Delhi, and 30 shields are wasted. My fault for not switching over sooner.
End notes:
We should go to war with the Iroquois, and take out their 3 cities that are close to us, maybe going as far west as Grand River. Would expand us nicely, and they're already at war, so those cities are going to be easy pickings. Moved several stacks of horseman towards the Iroquios lands. They should fall pretty quickly with the assult force moving towards them, and the fact they're already going into it with Persia.
We need to build Libraries in Delhi, Madras, and Bombay as soon as they finish their marketplaces. We don't have much of a chance for 50 turn gambits with our current ech situation. Those libs, with our marketplaces being built during the next leaders watch will help greatly.
Lets keep the pace going. I suggest starting to enforce a 24/72 rule. This game will stop if we don't keep it moving quickly.
If you see tundra with a mine on it that means I chopped a forest. Don't try replanting and chopping, it won't do anything.
PLEASE!!!! Check the turn number before you pass it on. Try to keep it on even 10's.
No point in photos, nothing changed.
