I usually play Epic on Large maps. Nine cities are necessary to really get

things done on a map that size; if one gets a few more, that's a bonus.
(And 
I'm a builder too.)
  I'm not too good at micromanagement, but anything is better than leaving

things to the moronic workers. And I always keep the option "automated 
workers leave existing improvements alone" and "automated workers don't
cut 
forests" checked.
