I like move South with Wbigfree as long as he continues South, fully exploring the land without encroaching the Persian border.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm in favor of the trade of techs' with Persia. Which is kinda like this:
1. We give them Alphabet now and they give us BW now.
2. We will research Writing and trade that for IW, Wheel, and WC.
3. We will research Map Making and trade that for Mysticism and CB.
The exact time-line for doing these trade is not lined out; infatc it may be that they want the whole deal lumped together; with each team giving the other the Tech as they get it.
The wole deal works out like this:
Us getting 22 units of value in Tech
Them getting 25 units of value in Tech
This is a little misleading because of two things.
1. They will have to research lower level items and cant's go any faster than 4 turns each even if they have resources to do it; of course they bank the gold but we all know Tech is more valuable than gold.
2. We have already have Alphabet, so we don't have costs associated with it; likewise for them with BW. Since Alphabet is worth 5 and BW is worth 3; it brings the balance to: Us-20 Them-19. This is much closer now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I suggest we switch research to Writing now. This is a risk seeing as how we don't have BW yet from Peria; but I got the feeling that they would follow through on the deal.

The third part favors them most, only at first glance though. You have to look at the deal as a 'whole'.
I think that we will have researched Writing and Map Making well before they finnish their's. This gives us the chance to research other Techs while they are still trying to fulfill the agreement. We win if this is true because we are researching something that they do not have and we don't have to give them and we have much more marketable techs than they do.

FLASH!
After receiving the save, checking what's new, and moving Wbigfree1 one tile to the South as planned, borders of a city belonging to Gamecatcher (at least I believe it is Gamecatcher) appeared:

GameCatcher is India - Commercial, Religious, starting techs Alphabet & Ceremonial Burial.
I will not pass the save on and keep sitting on it until we discuss our strategy (at least until nye, Togas, and other key representatives show up).
Oh, btw, CDG offered BW without "accepting". And there is a barbarian N-NW (8-7) from Wbigfree1.

Sigh, and here I was, hoping to neighbor a friendly, honest and peaceful civ...
One thing is for sure, they're a lot closer to each other than to us. This could be good and bad.
