Started off with some really bad luck but things are looking good overall. I decided to send our northern warrior 1 NW to finish the scouting and look for more seafood. The barb archer was at 1.7 strength so it shouldn't pose a threat when we're in the forest, but that <insert insult> Ramesses sent a scout to the open tile next to us and as a result a barbarian warrior joined the archer after killing the scout. We lost our fortified warrior the next turn. 
Finished BW and we indeed have copper on our open grassland tile!
We can see Izzy's culture if we look carefully.
We found riverside corn north of the gold which is huge. Unfortunately a barbarian city got settled on my last turn, but it isn't blocking us that much (it might even end up being a good thing). I made a settler instead of a worker after growing to size 5 -- change of heart after seeing that corn.
General
I want to settle our city 1N of the banana because:
a) 2200 BC is when barbarian are starting to pose a problem on immortal normal speed. This spot is easy to defend and it's going to take some turns before our first axeman is out.
b) It's got an awful lot of resources -- it's basically a 2nd capital.
c) If we move closer to Izzy we'll have to wait for an axe transport and there's a lot of jungle there making things hard.
d) By placing the city 1N of the banana we can take out the barbarian city with culture. If we go for CoL confucianism is going to be founded in this city unless we do something strange to prevent it (which would be silly). When confucianism is founded we will reach 100 culture (which is what we need to take the barbarian city) very fast.
We can choose to settle a more aggressive city with the 2nd city -- I feel it's too risky to move far without proper defenders. Seeing as we got bronze I don't want to whip anything at all -- we have 5 "über" tiles.
Our research is very good and once we settle our second city (if we choose the spot I suggest) we'll be looking at an extra 5
per turn until our gold runs out. The main obstacle regarding the Oracle is production. I don't think it's worth it considering the start. On a more barren map with less commerce it might've been essential, but it's going to be easy to just self-research it here. I'm in favour of expansion. I like getting the Pyramids though, as there's a bigger time window, but I wouldn't rush it. If we lose it then so be it, if Ramesses gets it we can just take it by force -- IIRC he is one of the AI that produces the least troops.
We should sign OB with Izzy once either one of us gets writing. This will allow her to send missionaries and increase our happiness + relations. It might upset Ramesses, but I don't see him going to war either way -- Izzy is the one to befriend here IMO.
Should I play more or hand it over to the next player? (14 turns)
