Played five turns, stopped after we got a great artist instead of the expected scientist on turn 155 because I wasn't sure what trades needed to be made in order to let the artist bulb part of radio. (The current option is monotheism. ) Plus our science total will be off, so the spreadsheet will need re-working.
Pardon a lack of comments; I'm exhausted.
As I mentioned inside the spoiler tags, there was a crash right at the end. I replayed the part-turn (just a grenadier move -- I'm certain I wound up in the same place; not positive I took the same path) and saved, but I'm still hoping to find the HOF "save on exit" save if anyone knows where that gets stashed. For now, I'll link what I have, in case anyone wants to take a look at the current situation. If anyone knows where to find the other version and can tell me, I'll link that one instead in the morning, assuming that's what AlanH would like me to do.
