Lung - the only way to stop "Old Stevie" is to flatten both the tires on his wheelchair.

Heck, I am in the abnormal situation to have a larger population than Steve - and still he runs from me.

I simply can't catch him

What's that Birdman? You have gone over to the rabbit strategy? That method is already obsolete!

Turns to Lung, Birdman, and Paulno1.

Partly - but there is no "rabbit" the way I place my cities.

I still allow my settlers to walk 4-7 (even 10 tiles) before they make new cities.

But I am putting settlers in the buildqueqe at an earlier stage of the city-life than I have done before.

I am also "playing" when it is best to use aquaducts first and when granaries - but I have not come to a final conclusion on that matter yet.

Guess there will be no conclusion as moutains and hills says aquaducts and courthhouses, while grassland, rivers and sea says granaries. Thats my point of view for the time being.

if the granary would finish before the city grows its usually better to build a granary. thats the basic thing about how the granaries work. they only 'do' something when the cities grow (or shrink ?)

cant comply with that.
first of all. whats courthouses for anyway ?
i usually dont build them until they cost 1 turn.
and especially if the city is in a more productive than fertile area, its better to build granaries first, since the city is likely to grow only after the granary is finished. and then they will really need the granary effect.

They are good for squeezing gold and production out of a city. Every little bit counts. Plus, they have a low maintenance cost and help keep people happy (low crime rate)

i know
but they take up valuable time to build. time i would like to spend elsewhere.
well, maybe i just dont like them.

if the city gets big or builds up a monopoly, i agree though.
just nothing i would build early in a city, as birdman mentioned them in one breath with auqeducts.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

If you don't mind me saying... You two should play the dual-duel format like Paulno1 and me are doing. That way, no complaints. Dual-Duel is random map then play TWO matches against each other, swapping sides. If a split in wins then fastest winner wins match. Match is not complete until BOTH games are completed.

Oh, I have one condition: Don't use the 2 smallest mapsizes - I hate them.

Ummm... good point Mathmagician. You're right. In the "Dual-Duel" challenge format, first to win, wins the match. You don't need to complete the other.

Turns to Bird, Lung, and Paulno1.

berXpert defeated ricketyclik on turn 85 by exceeding 4x PG rule.

It was a flogging if ever there was one. I take my hat off to berXpert
