Turn 37
Basic turn so posting here for my future reference.
I'm last in empire score at 16 (2*5 for cities, 5 points for population, 1 for palace.
2 players have Holy Sites. I think they are Chev and TAD, which would siuggest TAD has 2 cities, a district and 6 pop (not a surprise as Khmer). Chev I think has 2 cities and a district and 5 pop. I suspect TAD is ahead in the push for religion. Now watch to see if either of them build a second HS, and/or projects to nab first choice.
Gamer Cat is Whosit. 19 Empire score would be 6 pop in 2 cities with monuments, but he can't have a district if the above is true. He is Rome, so why would he at this point? The alternative (another city) is not possible with 19 score. Turn 34 he dropped from 20 to 19, that smells like a Colonization powered settler, and is busy moving into position. It should be noted that Whosit has been spending a little bit of time on his turns (Blame Steam for telling when players open up Civ 6 for me noticing this, I don't have times, just noticing the popups) so it might be he is dealing with barb movements or still identifying the third city location.
Greenline (BaconBiscuitBaby) has Korea and 20 empire points but there are no GS points being generated, so he can't have teh Seowan down. This makes little sense, but he had 16 points last turn so I think he finished a Seowan this turn and will generate GS points from next turn. That would mean he had 16 empire points in much the same lay out as the rest of us, a 3/2 split, or possibly a 4/1 (Turn 27 he went from 8 to 15, which would be 5 for a city, 1 for a pop in the new city, and a likely quick regrowth. That's a 3/2 split, not 4/1, the second city grows quicker and he focused on completing the Seowan.
I think players are sandbagging tech, but not by much. Greenline as Korea has 4, must have Pottery and Writing. I suspect also has Mining but can't be sure of the other two.
Chev and TAD have 3 techs, must have Astrology. No idea about the rest. Whosit is just a blank slate at this point. I have a plan for every eureka except Astrology (which is simply scouting) remaning through the end of the Classical era. So actually, tech looks decent for me: the Classical era eureka difference is the equivalent of a first row tech.
Showing GP point generation, 7 to TAD, 1 to Chev (I think). Actually, checking back over the score increases, Chev had a 2 point bump on T35>36, then on T37 he shows up with the GP point, so yeah, I'll lock that one in: Chev finished a HS on his T36
I am missing 13 strength on military score due to injury and I am still #1 in power. I'm second in culture to Whosit (that's quite entertaining actually, I thought I was doing poorly). Science is going to be a bit messy but I'm hitting that many eurekas as China I'm probably doing better than expected. It's just the fact I only have 1 three food tile (and a turtle at that) in my borders leading to the lower empire score. Lilja is doing a job helping growth, but I still need to find 28 production for the pantheon (I'm giving up 8 faith per turn on Stone circles here, but without a Golden age I am not going to get, I'd have nothing to spend it on), or suck up Godking for 14 turns.
