I mean with all the things to keep in mind about placing the city exactly there, in this order, but not before this and that...
I like to play and not sitting in front of the PC using a calculator and a lineal.
If you want to make the game harder, give the AI some more advantages or faster research but dont kill the players who do not have a degree in math and they found a city only because it seems to be a good place not considering the formulas in the background.
They are not killing the players "who do not have a degree in math". The great thing about CIV3 is that anyone with an interest in turned based games can play it. From novice to expert.
C3C came with a number of obvious and very disturbing bugs. A foreign palace was useless, because it gave you more corruption instead of less. Other bugs (amongst others the 'gold per turn bug') were as bad. Not only for the hardcore player, but also for the rest of us.
In the last two months the developers have been adressing these issues and welcomed comments from customers. Some of those customers know the game inside out, others are not that fanatic.
At this moment, with patch 1.15 we have a C3C that is far better than the original 'out of the box'. Also for players like you.
I wouldn't worry if I were you
