Your special power gives you an edge when curing diseases, so it makes sense for you to spend most of your time and energy on that. You've got two black cards already; having four lets you cure the black disease.
I'd recommend talking with Charles and the worst about coordinating to get their black cards before doing anything
(I have one too, but I'm a ways away from you; everyone else is closer).
@Charles @the worst ? Halp.
As long as we have people on different continents, I can use my ability to zip you around the map quite a lot. So for this turn, if you can get to one of mine or Charles' black card cities, that would be cool. On my next turn I can send myself or Charles over there to prepare to trade you the card. Charles may be better off using his turn to clean up cities nearby his spawn point, so your best play may be to move towards an appropriate city and do as much treating as you can on the way.
As I write this I'm realising I should go back and read the posts made since. And ah what Farren said is a more involved version of what I'm thinking. I'd listen to Farren, Nancy - shout out if you'd like me to help planning specifics when I'm at the PC.

Shouting out. I have no clue what to do. Yes, please help me, advise me.

We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it. (I'm slightly scared of Nancy)

Nancy-scum feels like a hot knife slicing through butter. Nancy-town feels like a magnifying glass in the sun glaring down at an insect.
: just to clarify on Government Grant: could I use that right now to drop a Research Center in Riyadh? (not saying I want to right now, but at least considering it)

the worst, how willing are you to give away that Riyadh card to Nancy?
If I use Government Grant to drop a Research Center in Riyadh this turn, she could get over there with her action this turn. She could do something like this:
1) Move to DC
2) Treat Disease (DC)
3) Move to Atlanta
4) Move to Riyadh
(mostly so that she ends her turn in Riyadh)
... then you could dispatch your way over there at some point during your turn and give her the Riyadh card. Thoughts? (from both you and Nancy)

please still make a decision as soon as you can. if you have any questions abut how the game works in general, let me know
I still don’t understand what I’m supposed to do, that’s why I haven’t done that yet. :/

Nancy, which would you rather prioritize right now? Trying to cure diseases (necessary for winning; requires cooperation and coordination with other players) or trying to treat diseases (necessary to avoid losing; can be done without cooperation / coordination).
(If there's a "right" answer, I don't know what it is - this is more about trying to figure out how you want to play the game.)

I don’t even know which actions would result in which but if players that can presumably help me for whatever reason don’t, I guess I would then have no choice but to default to the latter but I can’t choose either without knowing which causes which.
Ideally I’d like to get more grey cards but don’t know if that’s possible or not this turn?
So to answer your question, if the other players help than the former but if not, latter.

So what I just did there was create a route between Atlanta and Riyadh - anyone can now move between those two cities with a single Move action.
Nancy, if you end your turn this round in Riyadh, the worst can arrange to give you his Riyadh card. Alternately, you may be able to get away with ending your turn elsewhere and having the worst move you to Riyadh, but you'd have to work that out with him.
You could do something like this:
1) Move to (your choice of Washington DC or Miami; don't think it matters which?)
2) Treat Disease
3) Move to Atlanta
4) Move to Riyadh
It would take the worst two of his four actions to move to Riyadh on his next turn and give you the Riyadh card this way. Alternately, you could do this:
1) Move to (your choice of Washington DC or Miami; don't think it matters which?)
2) Treat Disease
3) Treat Disease
4) Move to Atlanta
It would take the worst to three of his four actions to move you to Riyadh, meet up with you, and give you the card.
So your suggestion then seems the most optimal because duckling can then give me his Riyad card next turn.

Would one of these be okay? (also, the next time you want to play event cards, please play them as part of a full turn submission; it’s easier to track that way)

So I flip a virtual coin or something then, since it apparently doesn’t matter which one I choose?

Alright.
Just choose a city for the first action and then I’ll process it as soon as I can.
(also, apologies for putting this off, I should’ve sent a prod or something)
