Do they know that we know that they know that we know that they know ...?

Gillette: Double whipped something, grew 1 city. Got 10k of power which I put down as Axe+Spear (guess).

I think Gillette can only build Maces+spears not Axes.

D'oh. Knew there was a reason that didn't sound sensible.

Changed that to Spear+Spear+Forge, because a Mace is 9k and that would only leave 1k spare which isn't anything.

Rego'ing up the thread here ...

Having said that about power - if I've miscounted population then I'd expect +/- 1k power artefacts, and that might make the two 10k rises actually two 9k rises. So I shall err on the side of "caution" and change that to 2 Maces.

Turn 125

TEAM: Triple whipped something, grew 2 cities. I think their after-turn whips won't show up in the power graph or the demos till next turn even if they are military. But the loss of pop did show up in the demos, just to confuse me I think they built a Galley (or something else for 2k power).

Menagerie: Double whipped something, single whipped something, grew 1 city (possibly a new city?). I think they got another 2k power to account for (see above for confusion generated by TEAM), putting it down as a galley.

Gillette: Double whipped something, single whipped something, grew 6 cities. Got a tech (Iron Working). And have another 15k of power to account for - put down a Mace (9k) which leaves me with 6k to find, perhaps 2 Archers.

And I've just realised that Gillette make Beserkers not Maces, and they are 10k power. Which means I don't have +/-1k artefacts on the previous turns. And this turn I've got 5k "spare" power, so thinking that's Forge+Barracks. Could be Galley instead of Forge - beginning to wonder about a fleet of Galleys+Beserkers turning up at On The Rocks.

Pirates: Grew three cities.

Tasunke continues his whipping spree 4 this turn and there has been numerous during the last 5T.

I'm away for about a week from tomorrow (back briefly in the middle) and won't have net access for most of it.

Can someone update the scores in the C&D spreadsheet from CivStats, please? That's the bit I can't just do afterwards.

Hopefully life will get a little less hellishly busy after that & I'll catch up with all the stuff I've not done recently

[plako]

I updated the scores and techs in the C&D sheet. Our Liberalims run has put us quite a bit ahead of the rest of the world concerning accumulated beakers. We've 15820 beakers. Gillette+TEAM ~7500. Menagerie ~5500 and Pirates ~6000.

Thanks for updating the scores, plako

I've been back since yesterday, but I appear to have brought a cold back as a souvenir. I've not got the mental capacity to tackle the C&D right now, but hopefully tomorrow afternoon I'll do that (fairly daunting) job

I would like to know if plako's paranoia is justified or not .

[plako]

Belive me. It is not just paranoia. It is a real thing. There hasn't been a single fight in the "war" between Gillette and 3M and Gillette has shown no real intrest to prolong our NAP. Actually now that I checked 3M and Gillette have signed peace deal.

[darrelljs]

. I thought Gillette wanted a NAP beyond turn 180?
