I am well aware of that and deeply sorry, but I can promise y'all that I will play and upload the turn within the next 39 hours.
Thx 4 cheking in.
Understand RL has given U an opportunity. At your age U should definately prioritize that.
On the other hand, if U are not able to keep pace in these worlds, we will miss your entertaining posts, thots, & moves, but the rest of us want/need to get on with these before life catches up with us.
Should i start searching for a replacement?

Like I said, by tomortow I will have sent the turn on. My last window was yesterday but unfortunately I plain forgot about this game and played some other turns instead.

WHAT! WHAT! WHAT!? AAAAARGH I AM SO STUPID! 
I had researched Liberalism halfway about fifty turns ago and then stopped because no one else was even close, thinking I might be able to get me a better tech if I put it off longer. Recently I saw REM being able to research it and went on to finish it, thinking that this shouldn't be a problem as I already had a headstart on him and plenty of gold for deficit research. Of course I didn't consider that he would bulb it. 
Urgh, well played REM, well played.
At least I'm gonna be first to circumnavigation, or at least I hope so.

Lol. I made sure I could get it fast with the GS and researching philosophy to almost full, then edu to almost full, and having masses of overflow plough into the tech 
I thought (correctly it seems) you would switch to liberalism if you saw someone else able to go for it.
It's not that big a deal though, you still have a huge leadin pretty much all areas!

May all your scientists die of brain-burnout!! 
Greetings fellow leaders. 
2 admin items:
1> we decided that units could not be gifted outside our 3 civs, however; what about trading for fair value? ie; horse archer for chariot + 20 gold (difference in production costs).
I think/feel that is allowable & realistic. I do not think that UU's should be allowed to be traded since they represent something special for each civ.
What R your thots? If none, i will assume U agree.
2> As clunky as Diplo is in this game (especially with 3 civs each) may i suggest/ask whenever possible; any overall/non-civ-specific discussions be addressed to 1st/lead civ* for the receiving player. ie; in my case, the Arabs
That way the player gets info/Q/answer immediately upon opening turn file. If we address such items to 2nd or 3rd civ the receiving player mite be forced to go back & change 1st &/or 2nd civ's move based on new info/Q/answer he got AFTER moving & saving civ 1 or 2.
* just chek Tracker if don't know/recall which civ is 1st for each of us.

Good thoughts for 2.
I'm with knodel though - in a full diplo game if you agree to a trade you agree to a trade. Gold for units is fine, as is gifting UUs in my mind.

Not sure of your statement. Since U R a 2nd gen player/leader, U probably were not in on early game discussions/decisions about swaps & such. + Differences between what is allowed between 3 team civs vs among other leaders' civs.
Altho this is not a full diplo game; Understand & like(?) your response re: buying units.
What has been proposed is trading a unit for another unit with any difference in production costs paid in gold.*
UU's are not avail for any outside of team anything. WAY too unrealistic. Countries & leaders have bot, sold, rented, equiped, lend/leased regular units & their equipment thruout history. But also by definition, NOT unique units. (ergo, they would not be unique)
* assumption is 1 gold = 1 hammer = 1 beaker... correct?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OK. Thx for input ImpK & REM.
What about the rest of ye world leaders? We need your input.
I really do NOT want to use my "Vice Presidential" vote as Admin'r to decide the proposed trade+difference rule.
