Did they fix that gpt bug in 1.29f

the reason they dont want your gpt or luxury is because if they declare war on you, they will be blamed for cancelling a per-turn deal.
 
No No No.

They changed the logic sometime ago where Gold or GPT and a city are involved. The notion of trading citizens for cash is a bit too mercenary for them, I guess.

It also allowed you to use a city as a Trojan Horse. Populate a city in a 'culturfied' border area, sell off the temples, trade it for a lot of gold/tech and then wait for it to culture flip back.

Since adding gold goes from maybe to no way, I'll bet a city is involved.

It makes sense overall, but the rule is WAY too strict. You cant even offer one of their own captured cities back in exchange for mucho gold. In the interest of protecting their people, they should jump at the offer.

Reputation is low, the issue here is that when you add something more it goes the opposite way :(

200 + 20gpt is better than 200gp.

The point that some are trying to make is that if your reputation is bad enough, it is insulting that you'd offer something that you won't/can't make good on. The equation is not so simply rendered as you put it but more like this:

200 + (20gpt - the effect of your bad rep) < 200gp
