rjfrisby: What is the deal here?
motorman: are you a new player?
nitro480: need more players
rjfrisby: Well, not so new, I just never play tournament games
nitro480: its the same
rjfrisby: I usually play training with the fam
motorman: same as training, anyones welcome as long as you dont plan to quit halfway through
rjfrisby: How long is the wait usually to get more players?
motorman: it might be another 10-15 min, its hard to say
motorman: problem is two games started back to back so there has been kind of a lull
rjfrisby: Do you ever just go with a AI player to complete the 4th player?
rjfrisby: Ah
motorman: we do if there is a long wait but its frowned upon usually because there are only 2 bots that host games
rjfrisby: I cant see how those AI players get to change out like 5 plots, catch the Wampus, and hit the pub on a single turn.
motorman: yeah, its skewed, although you can check the box to show their actions, and that slows them down a bit
rjfrisby: LOL
rjfrisby: OK
rjfrisby: So anything in particular that affects the price of crystite?
motorman: also in tournament games there isnt much goodwill so you should always take care of your food and energy
rjfrisby: Or is it purely variable as it is all exported off planet?
motorman: nope, its completely random from turn to turn

nitro480: cool
nitro480: just need 1 more
rjfrisby: I couldn't figure out why the bots come down and have lplenty of energy or food, and then will come down to sell 1 unit to the store and then go all the way back up. Am I missing something?
motorman: they are pretty terrible at strategy... most of the time what they do makes very little sense. I personally hate playing the bots because i find them too easy and predictable
rjfrisby: Ah, OK
motorman: old c64 ai and atari ai was better
rjfrisby: I had this game years ago on my Atari
rjfrisby: I couldn't believe it when I stumbled on this a few months back
motorman: i had it for the c64, was probably my favorite game

motorman: yeah, i found it one night late and was very happy i did
motorman: join up
rjfrisby: I have never played with other people on the atari, just AI, and now just with my children, So I am eager to see what strategy you all use.
rjfrisby: Greetings Jagzepic
motorman: oh you'll definitely learn something
nitro480: i like to just play and have fun
motorman: just please understand that I play to win and my ingame actions, which can be rather mercanary, are not an actual reflectioin of myself
rjfrisby: LOL
rjfrisby: Thats cool
nitro480: thats the game
rjfrisby: Thanks for the honest heads up
motorman: some new players are used to others helping them out and are shocked when that doesnt happen so i like to give fair warning
rjfrisby: Yeah, I tell that to my 9 & 11 year old and they help eachother out against Dad
motorman: lol, nice
motorman: smart kids
rjfrisby: I was destroying them with my mining op and ran out of energy.
rjfrisby: I ran up offering like 600+ per unit and they simply wouldnt sell!!!
motorman: hey jag, you joining up?
rjfrisby: They had a good laught keeping me from producing anything that round
rjfrisby: Yeah, fyi, I can prolly wait about 10 min or so to start.
rjfrisby: if not I will have to check out as I have been driving all day and am exhausted. cant stay up too late
rjfrisby: But if it starts I wont abandon
motorman: other two games are almost over so we should get one soon regardless
motorman: hey jag, you there?

rjfrisby: Is the basic strategy to get food and energy the first 2-3 rounds, then move to smithore to catch the spike as mules run out, and then move to crystite towards the end?
motorman: yes, bascially
motorman: although players will artificially spike ore
rjfrisby: yeah, in what ways (if you can share) can one best manipulate the price of ore?
motorman: sure, all this is stuff youd see in your first couple games anyway
motorman: basically if you have enough cash you can buy all the ore in the store
motorman: so no mules are made
motorman: then you can "ditch" mules by buying them and letting them run free
motorman: this raises the ore price further, and the goal is to get rid of all the mules in the store so you'll get a max ore price of 230
rjfrisby: Oh! lol, yeah thats what I saw, and at first wondered why he did that, then quickly realized the tactic!
rjfrisby: Just hope a pirate ship doesn't plan to stop by!
motorman: one game just finished
rjfrisby: cool!
rjfrisby: Hope someone still wants to play
motorman: there are 2 people in the other game if you guys want to join them and get started, i suspect they dont want to play me because of my win percentage
