Turn 013
We did the tile micro swap I detailed last turn:
It doesn't look like it now, but that extra hammer makes a big difference in a dozen turns.
You can also see that we found a lot of nothing with our scout in the east. Oh well, at least we know for sure now.
C&D news - both wetbandit and yuris got techs, and with soldier points going up by 4k along with the timing it looks like they both teched Mining after Agriculture.

Well, at least it took him 15 turns to find me this time instead of 3

I just noticed this, but who can spot what's wrong with the above picture?

FP gold ? What ? I don't think the world is prepared for a 3/3/8 tile.

Changing gears, i've got a guess as to how Commodore's first twelve turns of teching went:
t00 - t06: 7 turns teching something
t07 - t11: 5 turns teching Fishing.
I'd guess the 7 turns were spent in BW, and if so we should see him finish the tech on t17.

It is uncanny how he just knows exactly how to find me every time we play...
Turn 016
I have a sinking suspicion he's going to declare and sit on my wheat. I don't know if there's anything I can do about that save sitting on my own wheat with my scout, but then I won't get to explore.
West of the dyes looks like a heck of a moai spot, and there's another good city location between the crabs and corn.
Demos tell me everybody finished their wheat farm this turn:
They also tell me that wetbandit built the game's first warrior. Why wetbandit? - flugauto & yuris both started with Fishing, so they're both building work boats.
- I have Commodore pegged as teching Fishing at end of turn 11. Why swap to Fishing and time it to finish then unless you want to follow up your worker with a work boat?
- Everybody's been at 3hpt all game long (except somebody else followed me for a turn of working a 1f2h tile, so I think somebody else hsa the exact same opening planned as me) and it's been 5 turns since all the workers finished.
- This isn't bulletproof, but I think it's the most likely explanation
