Re: Gem trade
I've moved back to France for one week and a half, but I'm currently locked up behind an awful connection, which means I cannot take my turns until Jan 6. Oops. (More accurately, I can only do HTTP connections, and nothing else. PBEM would work (and be a major pain), but TCP/IP is out of the window.)
Given that I was in a fairly good position (unless something bad happened during the turns I missed), I wouldn't recommend setting me to AI (especially as I border Pangaea, already AI).
On the other hand, one week and a half is a pretty long time to wait, and I've already held up the game on most turns in December. So, I'd suggest trying to find a permanent sub for my T'ien Ch'i. If nobody objects, giving my nation to one of the defeated players might be a good idea.
In any event, I apologize for the problems, and I hope you'll find a workeable solution.
