Lord Parkin
aka emperor
Exactly. Or Sheep. 

I'm not sure. There's definitely a crappy southern ice continent though, since two (?) of the ice starts were down there I think.
Ihave discovered 34 ice tiles since founding my city and NO other land!
the really scary part? I'm moving toward the equator!
I see a river delta at the edge of my vision... maybe some delicious tundra beyond!
0 huts. 0 smiley resources. 2 marble. not joking.
Edit: I do have a whale to look forward to... that's 1 smiley.![]()
Grant 2004 and Lord Parkin both started with Mysticism, and coincidentally both have yet to hit a tech. Grant also started with Mining, so he could be going BW. If he was dead set on the religion, he could have already hit Meditation with his 3:gold crabs.
I think Grant gets Bronze working and Parkin gets Meditation.
Nah, sheep suck.
Maybe in your case.
@BCLG, I bet you would prefer my start, since I have three rivers around my area.
But I did not start with fishing, so those crabs are unworkable.
What else lives at the south pole? If you're going to be the emperor penguin I can't be another penguin without recognizing you as my overlord. Maybe I can be a geographically confused polar bear?
Seals! They live down there too.![]()
