Snaaty no problem you can give me a public dressing down for weedy moves 
. As I told I am a player comfortable in emporer level but afraid to move to immortal. I'll explain why capital was too small. I needed animal husbandry , a pig pasture to make city grow till then there is no sense in having a size 5,6 city if we are just working forests. Our tech order was very constricted. We wanted the 2 GE wonders , asap . And we wanted oracle, so I needed a settler asap and being imperial we get faster settler from shields so the quarry. So for the next GE asap strategy I had to go masonary , bw , pottery . And in meanwhile I had to build mint, worker, settler and that engineer specialist ,so there wasn't much opportunity to grow the city. I was thinking of completing the second worker let him pasture pigs and chop grassland river forests for farms and grow big , using whip extensively when we can build proper military units like praets, cho-ku's switching to police state for better production from whip. Reason I delayed second worker was I was afraid we won't even have that city spot to expand into as toku was growing like a weed and road was being constructed to connect marble to the second city for oracle. We have a settler on the square with worker if you check.
Also we might use another startegy. Use the oracle for code of laws for cheap 45 shield sacrificail altar which gives for 5 turn whipping. And use enginner for pyramids. next enginner could bublb machinery meanwhile we can whip praets and some axes, phalanxes with our sacrificial altar.
Snaaty I am here to learn. I don't have any pride issues from learning from a better player. Anyways you are here in the team so that you spend your turnsets trying to recover from the weedy moves we make
. You can if you have time tell us how you would have played my turns so that we can learn or learn to check out each other's styles of play.
One thing which I might learn is choppping , I have nearly stopped chopping post that 20shields forests till mathematics unless i wanted to construct a mine, farm,cottage or just rush a wonder. So is chopping still effective?.
Edit: Snaaty I think you misread one thing in my save, that was a worker + setter group . We already have our first settler heading towards 2nd city spot
. No need to think of delaying our first settler 
and losing oracle.
Still if you feel my skill level is not sufficient to make the team win and I messed up the game too much, i have no problem skipping my turns to cheer and learn from the team .The game could proceed with your save.
