Hi scooter/RB
Thank you for the congratulations on the new city we indeed have built, and likewise congratulations to your team for your new city as well.
I have sent you an invitation to GTalk using the gmail you provided (from
caledorn@gmail.com). If there's something you need a quick response to you are welcome to poke me there. I'm using an Android phone, so I should be available there (as long as I'm not asleep of course) even if I'm not near my computer.
Your suggestion about notifying eachother when we meet other players is a good suggestion which we agree to. We would like to nail down some specifics about it though, so we suggest that when one of our teams meet a new team we notify one another what team we met, the turn we met them, and in what direction they are (thus making it easier for eachother to meet up with those teams)
{1}. If that sounds like too much information for your team to give away, then feel free to come up with another suggestion, but we think this is a fair deal for both our teams.

As you probably have already figured out by our warrior movements outside your borders, we intend to move our scouting warrior north from your lands. We suggest that you send a unit either westwards or southwards from your lands since we're moving north. Of course, our suggestion for your further exploration is after you've scouted the lands between our teams which is necessary so we can get that border agreement out of the way.
{3} That way there will be a higher chance of us meeting different teams in accordance to the agreement about notifying eachother about meeting other teams.
We have been doing some speculations about the map, based on what we have seen so far in our scouting, and we're wondering if you have explored enough lands even with the loss of the initial warrior to make out some speculations on your own? We definitely agree that it would be a good idea if we pool knowledge on our surroundings together. If we could pit together our information we may be able to figure out some pattern to where the other teams are so we can scout as efficiently as possible with the goal of meeting the other teams as quickly as possible. Obviously we can't share maps yet, as that would be breaking the rules, but a general description of what things look like or some interesting terrain features should be okay to share until we have paper.
