[PB70] Charriu tries to promote the arts again

[Charriu]

I've looked at my axeman. It won't be there in time to defend my city. So this may be the only way to safe my city

[Charriu]

Maybe he will have to the worker gifting next turn. By then the city popped borders. Declaring war will then teleport his skirm away giving me more time

[Charriu]

In any case play on as planned for now. If it's safe then try improving the sheep. Cities second pop can work a floodplain if necessary. Play after Bing otherwise and keep me updated.

[Charriu]

Okay, I will do as instructed and login and send Bing a ceasefire, taking no other actions.

EDIT: Actually, I haven't logged in yet, and I recall scooter's post in the Discord saying that no one should log in until lurkers have reviewed. He doesn't know the details of this situation of course, but I don't know if I should act first before another lurker responds.

EDIT 2: Again, my apologies for being the source of this issue. I thought the game was still in a phase where I could just follow your instructions and keep the game moving, the last thing I wanted was to cause a fuss.

Hey no problem. I'm very glad that somebody took over. I also had hoped that the game is still in this phase, but the mute decided otherwise. He said he wanted to mess with me with the skirm. I think we will never know if he really wanted to do that or your mistake incentived him.
Please don't feel sorry.

I logged in to see a ceasefire offered by Bing, so I accepted it and sent an Open Borders offer. I'm honestly not sure I understand how the sequencing will work since the Worker has 0 moves after being captured on T64. Is Bing now taking the first half of T64 and declaring on the first half of T65?

If that city is saved because you guilt tripped Bing into returning that worker I feel like that's a problem. But up to him to cry foul.
Would have been cleaner to just have Ramk return the worker or reload.

[Charriu]

It's a diplo game. If he can't handle playing actual diplo he shouldn't play a diplo game

[Qgqqqqq]

Sure, but deceiving him about mechanics feels icky

[El Grillo]

Should I still play T64 according to the posted plan, Charriu?

EDIT: Okay I will play T64 according to the posted plan and your earlier comment:

In any case play on as planned for now. If it's safe then try improving the sheep. Cities second pop can work a floodplain if necessary. Play after Bing otherwise and keep me updated.

You can presumably see this Grillo, but Charriu, I believe the lurker stance is that we should reload to the start of T64. Then Charriu/El Grillo play first half, and Bing plays second half. The worker can be saved normally, but the workaround doesn't occur and so the city is in the situation it would be in if not for the misplay and subsequent actions.
