good luck with all the blank pages!

The measure of efficiency is probably in the wrong place.

But what's up with these weird 6, 7, snf

That's true. Efficiency and PMC don't really work together in a sentence.

There are seven rules, named for the Seven Deadly Sins, but we only have to pass five of them in a post.

However, we have yet to pass 1, 2, or 3 at all.

Or are you trying to pass Sloth by not checking the start of the round?

This is episodes #15.

So this sure was an episode in which things happened.

• I don't even know why Trott conquered Wellington. It's cost him a fair few units and has made his empire unhappy (because HE ANNEXED RATHER THAN PUPPETING but still)
  
• Smiffy: "The fuck? How are the Huns influential over me now?" ...that I very much doubt...
  
• ...Sjin has 20 tourism. That would be enough to become influential over Smiffy. Maybe that's what happened instead?
  
• yep Tom has zero tourism
  
• Smiffy: "this grand assault against Rythian is going well, isn't it?"
  
• Rythian has destroyers. Do you think he could see his way towards using them? To destroy things? Like Sjin?
  
• ...where is Trott's army going? Not towards Rythian, really? Like, it's already obsolete, way behind Rythian's tech level, but by the time it gets there their only use will be for kitting out historical reenactment societies...
  
• Tom: "how to I raze a city to the ground?" Trott: "I'm tempted to raze Wellington..." YOU CANNOT RAZE CITY STATES
  
• (unless they were previously purchased by Venice or married to Austria)
  
• Smiffy and Trott are doing a "I'll show me mine you show me yours" for science per turn in private chat. Honestly, they do not need to be caught with their pants down any further than they currently are...
  
• Beshbalik, Sjin's one tile island city, can be attacked from the sea on six sides. Rythian has precisely six destroyers and they're all attacking Beshbalik. RIP.
  
• SJIN HADN'T EVEN BUILT WALLS THERE
  
• I think Sjin's tardiness keeps causing the resyncs, because scrolling the list of production choices in one of your cities as the turn timer ticks over is a thing that does produce them. And I've just watched Sjin space out over the list for thirty seconds then desperately rifle through it upon finally regaining his senses when the timer hit the five second mark...
  
• RYTHIAN HAS ENTERED THE ATOMIC ERA
  
• ATTILA'S COURT HAS BEEN RENAMED TO "CRAPITAL"
  
• Smiffy: "Really glad that the game clearly fucking supports the ideas you want. Ooh, you want to build your civilisation how you want to? NO! NO YOU CAN'T BUILD IT HOW YOU WANT TO! DO IT TO THE RULES THAT HELP YOU WIN!"
  
• Smiffy the way you wanted to build your civilisation was as a single shitty city and a colossal, money-draining road network that didn't even connect the various places it was trying to properly
  
• SJIN FOR FUCK'S SAKE IT'S THE CITY BOMBARD CURSOR PROBLEM FOR THE UMPTEENTH FUCKING TIME A BRIGHT RED CURSOR IS NOT A GOOD THING RIGHT FUCKING CLICK ALREADY
  
• STOP SOUNDING SO SAD
  
• Like, before this series I had seen this problem maybe six or seven times - what happens is that you select the bombard function, then either the unit you could bombard moves away or you forget what you just did and try to move on, meaning you're attempting to continue your normal actions while still having the bombardment option selected. All you have to do to fix this is to dismiss it. A right click works. Thus your BRIGHT RED CURSOR will turn back to the normal blue and you will be able to keep going. It says a lot about the attention spans slash general proficiency of these players that this is maybe the seventh time this has happened so far this game...
  
• THERE YOU GO YOU RIGHT CLICKED... AND YOU'RE STILL WHINING? YOU DON'T REALISE YOU'RE FINE NOW?!
  
• jesus fucking christ (the ultimate selfcest)
  
• RYTHIAN HAS LITERAL TANKS
  
• okay Sjin we need to have some words
  
• Rythian rather gentlemanly said that he wouldn't do any combat actions until you we able to interact with things again. You agreed to these terms, then proceeded to continue your turn with your now fixed cursor. You knew full well that you were able to perform actions once more yet did not inform Rythian of this. Eventually, once the turn timer was almost empty, Rythian caved in and took Beshbalik. He justified this by saying that, since you'd stopped whinging about the "bug", you were fine again, especially given the amount of time that had passed. You are now complaining that was unfair because you are still unable to do things. That is not reasonable. If you were complaining because Rythian broke his word, that has basis. You are, however, lying through your fucking teeth about the game still being "bugged". YOU JUST ADOPTED A SOCIAL POLICY. YOU JUST BOMBARDED A BARBARIAN. YOU ARE CAPABLE OF PERFORMING ACTIONS. This implies to me that you are trying to exploit your misfortune earlier in the turn in a deliberate and duplicitous attempt to stall Rythian, and that is not okay.
  
• oh so Trott's fucking up Vancouver and fucking up his army in the process
  
• Smiffy: "Guys, I'm trying to fight Rythian. I'm pushing on Zendikar with one unit of Great War Infantry who are very confused as to how they got here."
  
• Smiffy you do not have to discard all those notifications in order to get at a deal that has been tabled. You just go to the Diplomacy Menu, which you did, and click on it there, which you didn't.
  
• Tom: "Trott, are you going to join this war?" Trott: "I'm taking out Vancouver, mate! It's hampering him!" Tom: "...I don't really think it is." THIS IS 100% TRUE WELL DONE TOM
  
• ...THE TOM WHO JUST TOOK YEREVAN...
  
• ...*sigh*...
  
• Rythian, sniggering: "this is great" DAMN RIGHT
  
• LET ME READ YOU THE PEACE TREATY THAT TOM HAS JUST SENT RYTHIAN
  
• Rythian will make peace and give Tom a copy of the luxury Gold, Tom will make peace and give Rythian HORSES, 7.
  
• THAT IS A CITY NAMED HORSES WITH SEVEN POPULATION
  
• Rythian, bursting into laughter: "what the fuck is this?!"
  
• Rythian: "if you want peace I can give you peace, but I'm not giving you *cracks up* any gold"
  
• TOM RENAMED YEREVAN TO HORSES IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET RID OF IT
  
• TOM ADDED FURS TO HIS SIDE OF THE DEAL AND RYTHIAN ACCEPTED IT
  
• RYTHIAN HAS BEEN TRICKED. THE WOOL HAS BEEN PULLED OVER HIS EYES. HE HAS BEEN DOUBLE DEALT AND PLAYED FOR A FO- yeah no this is amazing Rythian's just been able to liberate it as a nigh-permanent ally how fucking phenomenal
  
• Smiffy and Trott now have a defensive pact. That is going to end well. Mostly because it will get triggered by a war declaration and Smiffy is already at war with Rythian.
  
• Smiffy: "eventually I'll drop the bomb on Rythian and it'll be fine" YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE PLASTICS YOU ARE ELEVEN TECHS AWAY FROM NUKES
  
• Smiffy: "also, I don't have, like, any strategic resources" THIS IS WHY YOU EXPAND TOWARDS THEM, SETTLING CITIES LIKE YOU VERY NEARLY DIDN'T
  
• (also you turn strategic balance on in the map settings to guarantee horses iron, and oil that really helps)
  
• Smiffy: "I reckon I could get a bomb in thirty turns" NO YOU CAN'T
  
• Sjin has just pointed out that there are no atomic bombs in the NQMod, only nuclear missiles. Smiffy's reaction was priceless.
  
• actually no we both got confused he has indeed shift-clicked missile tech not the tech where bombs used to be carry on
  
• Sjin is so fucking despondent about their chances against Rythian oh my gosh
  
• SJIN HAS JUST OFFERED TOM ALL HIS TRADEABLE CITIES IN EXCHANGE FOR GEMS
  
• SJIN YOU LOST A SINGLE CITY AND APPARENTLY THE PLOT AS WELL
  
• so the preview is interesting

tl;dr - FIVE TIMES YOUR DAILY RECOMMENDED ALLOWANCE OF SALT

End of message.

Passes 4.

This is episode #16.

I guessed this was going to be the finale, so I didn't save it for tomorrow morning like I have been doing. WORTH IT.

• Sjin: "Are you going to accept the deal, Tom?" Tom: "No!" Sjin: "Fucking fine, then, I'll shop around."
  
• TOM IS SENDING A SINGLE FRIGATE EAST TOWARDS RYTHIAN
  
• WHAT IS THAT GOING TO ACHIEVE?
  
• Tom's coastal cities are called "Boat Place" and "Lower Boat", formerly Exodia and Panama City respectively. Those are some good name changes right there.
  
• Sjin: "You have to unaccept that deal, by the way, before I can take it somewhere else." YOU ARE ABLE TO WITHDRAW YOUR OWN OFFERS IT WOULD BE REALLY BLOODY AWKWARD OTHERWISE
  
• Tom, in a voice that very much indicates he does not want to help Sjin with this: "Really?"
  
• Smiffy: "Oh wow, Trott's brought in... brought in Winged Hussars! That's pretty cool!" RYTHIAN HAS LITERAL TANKS
  
• LIKE HE'S GONE THROUGH THE LANDSHIP STAGE ALREADY HE IS AT LEGITIMATE TANKS. NEXT STOP, MODERN ARMOUR.
  
• Trott: "How big's this little fucking river to Babylon?" TROTT THAT IS A LAKE
  
• Also Trott: "God, I gotta go around this... that'll take forever" SAIL ACROSS THE FUCKING LAKE
  
• oh phew he's realised he can do that thank goodness
  
• Smiffy: "Fucking hell Trott, you're really moving in some fucking forces here. Jesus Christ! Chris Trott and the Slightly Outdated Polish Army are here to stay!"
  
• HOW MANY TIMES HAS SMIFFY TOLD TROTT THAT RYTHIAN IS SOUTH OF HIM? BECAUSE TROTT KEEPS TRYING TO GO NORTH!
  
• it's not like Trott has absolutely no other way of knowing where Morocco is he has a map with Zendikar and Innistrad on it
  
• Smiffy: "Trott, how the fuck did you get those boats into, into that lake?" Trott: "Embarking?"
  
• Smiffy is now worryingly quiet.
  
• Sjin: "I'm in the grip of despair, Tom. I haven't made a move in about ten minutes." YES I HAVE NOTICED YOUR COMPLETE LACK OF DESIRE TO DEFEND YOURSELF
  
• Sjin: "I've been playing Pokemon Go!" FUCK OFF
  
• RYTHIAN HAS DISCOVERED ATOMIC THEORY AND HAS A SOURCE OF URANIUM IN THE JUNGLES OF ZENDIKAR
  
• not like he's ever going to need to build nuclear missiles in order to win but I guess it's comforting to have
  
• TROTT IS BUILDING FRIGATES AND SENDING THEM HALFWAY ROUND THE WORLD TOWARDS RYTHIAN
  
• THE GUY FOR WHOM BATTLESHIPS ARE BEGINNING TO GO OUT OF DATE
  
• Sjin is now trying to pass his cities off to Trott instead. This is a shit fire sale.
  
• Trott: "I can't take on more cities Sjin!" Sjin: "No, you'll get a big happiness buzz!"
  
• TROTT ACCEPTED
  
• Trott: "OH MY GOD MY HAPPINESS IS MINUS FORTY TWO" WHY DID YOU TRUST SJIN
  
• WELP THERE GOES ALL CHANCES TROTT HAD OF AFFECTING ANYTHING EVER AGAIN
  
• TROTT IS JUST RAZING EVERYTHING
  
• Sjin: "well this is much more manageable"
  
• so Sjin now only has his capital, because Rythian took his over coastal
  
• so minus forty two unhappiness means one of Trott's cities will flip to Rythian due to ideological unhappiness
  
• Sjin: "everybody heckle Morocco!" well that sums up Sjin's attitude towards this
  
• Smiffy: "THERE ARE TANKS ON MY SOUTHERN BORDER!"
  
• RYTHIAN DECLARED WAR ON TROTT AND TROTT'S GATLING GUN DEALT THREE DAMAGE TO ONE OF RYTHIAN'S TANKS
  
• THIS IS AMAZING
  
• Rythian has anti-aircraft guns. NOBODY ELSE HAS PLANES.
  
• (I was going to say nobody else had the tech but I think Sjin may have just got it by accident)
  
• Rythian: "I was never really going for the tourism victory." Sjin: "So when you built all those tourism wonders...?" Rythian: "I was just building wonders because they were there!" I TOLD YOU SO
  
• Rythian: "The way to win now will be through conquest, because if I kill you I will automatically win a tourism victory" YES GOOD GOOD I AM HAPPY THAT YOU HAVE REALISED THIS
  
• SJIN'S CITY GIFTING WAS A LITERAL FIRE SALE NOW THE CITIES ARE BURNING TO THE GROUND
  
• ooh Trott and Smiffy are getting their science stats out in public
  
• Sjin: 208 / Tom: 253 / Trott: 297 / Smiffy: 326 / Rythian: 886
  
• Tom: "Sjin, please, accept the deal." Sjin: "oh hang on a sec I have to tab back in" SJIN NO
  
• Rythian: "I honestly don't know what the difference is between atomic bombs and nuclear missiles?"
  
• ATOMIC BOMB: unlocked at Nuclear fission, it costs 600 hammers (on standard) and one uranium, has a range of 10 hexes and does fallout damage in a radius of 2 from its target hex, halving the population of any city in that range. Has to be based in a city, taking up an aircraft slot, and it is theoretically possible to intercept.
  
• NUCLEAR MISSILES: unlocked at Advanced ballistics, it costs 1000 hammers (on standard) and two uranium, has a range of 12 hexes and does fallout damage in a radius of 2 from its target hex, halving the population of any city in that range but also wiping any city of pop six or less from the map. Can be based in cities or on Missile Carriers or Nuclear Submarines and cannot be intercepted under any circumstances.
  
• ...I hope somebody learnt something from that...
  
• Sjin took the Honour policy that (amongst other things) gives him two free warriors. They now comprise half his military.
  
• Tom: "Oh wait... Sjin, if you don't give any shits any more, give me those luxuries... and your horses, and your aluminium, and all your gold." PFFTHAHAHAHAHAHA
  
• THEY ARE NOW FIGHTING OVER WHO GETS ALL OF SJIN'S SHIT
  
• Trott: "Oh Smiffy, I've lost all my front line." Smiffy: "Yeah, me too!"
  
• honestly Rythian is scarcely doing anything he's just moving some units about aimlessly and accidentally killing everyone
  
• Rythian: "Honestly, Babylon is a tough nut to crack... I'm killing almost everything here..." UH HUH UH HUH
  
• by some miracle Smiffy is going to discover Atomic Theory next turn too so brace yourself for the inevitable whinging when it turns out he doesn't have any uranium in his malformed empire
  
• (Smiffy being in the Atomic Era doesn't actually mean he's doing well science-wise... he's not bothered with a shitload of stuff on the top of the tree and even less on the bottom..)
  
• TOM'S PRIVATEERS HAVE ARRIVED AT RAVINCA. ITS POPULACE MUST BE QUAKING IN FEAR. *cough*
  
• AND RYTHIAN'S DESTROYERS HAVE JUST ARRIVED IN LOWER BOAT. ITS ENTIRE POPULACE JUST SHAT THEMSELVES SIMULTANEOUSLY.
  
• Rythian is just gunning for The Internet at this point in an attempt to end this
  
• Trott is trying to send his frigates to help Tom. Tom is at least wise enough to point out that this is a horrible idea that flatly will not work or indeed help in any way whatsoever.
  
• LOWER BOAT LASTED HALF A TURN AGAINST THREE DESTROYERS
  
• SO IT IS NOW PANAMA CITY AGAIN WELP
  
• Smiffy: "Welcome to the Modern Era Tom!" Tom: "Um, thanks? Someone left their mobile phone here, um, we reverse-engineered it..."
  
• (we know he literally stole his way into it that's the joke)
  
• Sjin was just explaining to Tom how his units would get kicked out of Mongolia when their open borders agreement ran out when Tom had an idea. He figured that, by declaring war, he wouldn't have to worry about the expiry scuppering his half-arsed plans. Unfortunately, the sentence that Sjin was halfway through when Tom did this was "yeah, just so you know, it also happens when you declare war."
  
• PERFECT COMEDIC TIMING
  
• Tom: "Wait, do open borders ever run out?" um yes
  
• can somebody please explain to these guys that Imhotep actually existed outside of The Mummy
  
• IT HAS TAKEN SIX ATTACKS FROM THEIR BOATS FOR TROTT AND TOM TO GET ONE OF RYTHIAN'S DESTROYERS DOWN TO RED. THAT IS ADORABLE.
  
• oh my gosh Rythian is being clever and is buying shit in the now-annexed Karakorum so he can keep it growing/producing and also getting units OH MY GOSH
  
• also he won the World's Fair that I bet you didn't even know was happening BECAUSE I SURE DIDN'T
  
• *long, awkward silence* Sjin: "Oh shit, I think I just invented punk rock! Who's Hanna Petros?"
  
• Smiffy: "I've nearly got 400 science per turn now! What's your science at Rythian?" Rythian, truthfully: "913." Tom, loudly and despondently: "WHAT."
  
• oh apparently Smiffy does actually have uranium jolly good
  
• Sjin tried to send his Great Musician to the Crapital. He was supposedly unaware that Tom was at war with him until it got captured. Someone help me there are only seven minutes left but I don't think I can do this.
  
• does Tom realise that him capturing Pallet Town will cause Rythian to immediately win
  
• because Rythian did even go out of his way to point this out
  
• Sjin is now daring Tom to take his last city THAT IS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE
  
• Sjin is trying to charge Tom's cannons with his warriors. Yep, you heard me right. He's being very sarcastic as he does this.
  
• turn 227: Smiffy finally decides to manually control one of his workers
  
• the death of Sjin's last warrior generated enough XP for him to spawn a Khan, which he promptly ran out in to the middle of the battlefield, surrounded by Hunnic units and sapped of all its movement by zone of control
  
• rip Hulegu you existed for 27 seconds
  
• yes I timed that shut up
  
• Tom and Sjin said their gg's as the former polished off the latter's capital, and then when the defeat screen showed up Smiffy and Trott GOT SO CONFUSED OH MY GOODNESS
  
• Rythian giving yet another patient explanation to these poor people aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh
  
• Smiffy: "I'd like to play another game with people who are actually of my skill level" YES EXACTLY
  
• Sjin: "Do you guys feel like you learnt anything in this game?" Smiffy: "Dude, I don't think I learnt anything."
  
• Sjin: "Mongolia are dogshit" NOPE
  
• Rythian: "Yeah, Morocco aren't that great either" YEP
  
• Smiffy: "Babylon was underwhelming" NOPE NOPE NOPE
  
• Smiffy is attempting to explain his strategy words are coming through my speakers but they do not make sense
  
• goodbye everyone it was nice disparaging you

tl;dr - GOODBYE, I HAD A DELIGHTFUL TIME

Rythian really should have not been allowed to play in that session, that's why I stopped watching.

It's been confirmed that, due to technical/scheduling difficulties, Rythian and Mark subbed for Pyrion and Sips. Whether Pyrion would have been competent enough to pull off something similar is up for debate, but one thing is certain - a Pyrion, Sips, Sjin, Trott, Smiffy and Tom line-up would have been more about the conversation than the gameplay....

Oh man, civ 6 looks really good. The ui is beautiful and looks much more functional than civ 5, and strategic view no longer looks like absolute ass. But is there map trading?

Wait, why do pastures produce production instead of food? That makes no sense, especially since you can harvest the sheep tile to get food.
