Did they do something to the AI?
Getting Civs running at 100 bpt fairly early in game. I just lost my 2nd immortal game in a row to a science runaway on Sumeria (granted I'm not great with Sumeria and I had an island start)
Post summer patch, AI also seems to value lux highly when they are going for science win, trading away culture items they no longer need, negating the rebellions that would torpedo them in the past.
