Though Meow if you're looking to culture bomb more than a couple of times, you are going to need specialists. Lots of them. You're going to want to run philosophy too.
Well, yeah. That's why the GPFarm exists and why I've been saying that getting it up and running is more important imho than the mids, which as you said yourself are a gamble anyway. Other cities will also pop GAs and run artists as they are able. I am not against a SE at all (though two LCs need to be cottage heavy, even in a SE), so long as the Mids are in hand and don't interfere with our rex/gpfarm. However, the mids are NOT guaranteed even if we settle gold/stone next and WILL interfere with rex/gpfarm.
I'm assuming "run philosophy" is a typo. Did you mean bulb philo? I thought that was why we had our current GS?
If WT or BL could please explain their GAge plan I'd appreciate it. I don't see how popping anything other than GArtists helps us with culture. Does a golden age provide 4k or more culture? 20 turns of 1 (or is it 2?) extra gold per tile in our LCs doesn't seem to me like it would get us 4k between the three of them even. If my (admittedly untested) assumption is correct, then it would be more valuable to just keep popping artists to settle/bomb.
