Feel free to pause the game as soon as anyone else may get alphabet in your turn.
If no one does, we can GAMBLE on putting a few turns into alphabet (after aesthetics is in) and then trade it to Issy. She doesn`t appear to have marble nor be industrious... so if she goes for it.... great... that`s one settler less for her (or more) for a little bit of gold
Then we trade Monarchy around (if we still can), or keep trading aesthetics. I`m fine at this point on trading wonder techs since I think it`s pretty rare we are going to lose, especially since we got the mids no one is going to be able to GE rush on us.
P.S. Too bad egypt founded their capital on a hill (wink).
