Gotta say the C&D for this turn is blowing my mind. I mean, it always gets trickier the more you go along, but here's the facts:

Score adjustments:
Sian +6 (typically a tech)
Yuris +11 (tech / pop. He did found his 2nd city on T19 so maybe it's the land points for 7 land tiles but that would be about 24 points)
Gaspadore: +10 (tech / pop)
Pindicator: -3 (2 pop whip + tech?)

Total population did not change at all, and total soldier points went up 21K!?!?!

I guess several people might have researched the Wheel? Along with Yuri teching Bronze Working, that's about all I can come up with.

I'm not remembering exactly how religions work with PBEM. If Yuri researched Meditation this turn, I wouldn't get an announcement till next turn, right?

Definitely loving the fact that although IMO I am "winning" (though not really by much if anything), because there is such little actual land on this map, land tiles get pretty heavy weighting in the score, Sian's score is far above mine due to his CRE trait

Well I settled up the demographics. Population I think I got under control - 2 pop whip of Pindicator's capital (loss of 42K), growth of one of Sian's cities from 2 to 3 (+15K) and growth of Gaspadore's capital from 3 to 4 (+27K, confirmed in Top 5 cities)

Soldier count is weird. Sian already has Wheel and Bronze Working, so I gave him Sailing and a warrior (max power is 30K which seems to be him). I gave Yuri Bronze Working and Gaspadore and Pindicator both Wheel. That still leaves 2K to go so I assume somebody had a warrior or galley.

Yuri got a tech only 5 turns ago, which seems very quick for the 123b Bronze Working, though I suppose it is possible with deficit research and/or overflow and/or tech switching if he switched off of it earlier.

That does seem to indicate that I should be pretty clear to land Hinduism in 2t. (cross fingers, knock on wood, etc)

Since everyone got a tech this turn, that gives us a pretty fair beaker comparison

Regoarrarr: 676
Yuris125: 656
Sian: 635
Gaspadore: 584
Pindicator: 584

No, because the tech is discovered when he hits enter, the religion is founded right then and there: A player can look around and see where his religion fell when he hits enter.

So you'll know if a religion's already gone.

Yeah I know you can see it when you find it, but I thought I remembered something about how it doesn't get put in the Event Log till the actual game EOT

Right, right. Actually for the record no save was held up by my rockstar appearances.

For whatever reason (rounding?) I needed more commerce to land Polytheism in 2t, so I did so. Gaspadore founded their 3rd city this turn (1 turn behind me) and I will have Polytheism (if all goes well) at the end of my next turn

Polytheism came in at the EOT, and...

I actually think that I'd have preferred Hinduism founded in So Fat (and the odds were with me) but oh well. I think it's pretty good odds that I will land Judaism as well, and that should have pretty good odds to be founded in So Fat (since it will likely be the biggest non-capital city)

C&D is definitely getting tricky for soldier count, but I am keeping at least close count as well as still doing techs, score and population.

I'll hold off on revolting just yet so I can get culture in the Jewish holy city should I go for that.

I was already planning on doing some sim-work to decide whether to whip the granary in So Dumb but now with the fish tile in play, I'll have to do some more number crunching. That city is going to have some pretty insane food....

Probably should get a warrior in there before too long also.... lol
