1  Planet Mule 1 / Planet M.U.L.E. 1 Discussion / Re: MERGED: Player Auction Speed & Lag Treatment of Trade Line on: January 11, 2010, 18:35
Unfair host advantage is downright [terrible] when it's being exploited for cutthroat moves. Best example is the host rushing up ( like everyone) to get food on round one but because he has host advantage :
- Gets to the line " first"
- Buys everything in stock ( starving strategy)
- The other players who actually reached the line and should be included in the buy distribution cannot buy.
- Host buys all food, leaving nothing for the others.

Whoever is on the "buy line" should be recalculated every other second or something, to allow for "latecomers" to be able to get some goods.  This way buy/sell strategies can still be used, but host advantage cannot be used to exploit to a buy-all.

And the first game was won by the evil D.A.N. who not only starved his fellow human players, but also steadily developped a smith empire over time.
Cpt0 was 2nd with a last minute crys strategy comeback
rjck was a solid contender for the entire game and ended up as 3rd.
Anduin was fatally destroyed by a last minute energy management mistake, but had a great game for most of it, engineering various shortages and other devious schemes.

Good game to all and see yall next week!
