neomorph: can you develop more than one thing in a plot?
Ramerco: jsut one
abloker: no
Ramerco: lol
abloker: but you can move mules
Ramerco: that fire was pointless
neomorph: what is ore for?
abloker: yup
Ramerco: mule making
abloker: its helps the store make mules
Ramerco: the store make mules with ore
neomorph: what is crystite for?
Ramerco: just money
abloker: money
Ramerco: price is random between 50 and 150

Ramerco: i cant afford more
abloker: desert
Ramerco: greedy people
Ramerco: lol
abloker: then plain

abloker: now food!
abloker: WAH!
abloker: I hate cats!
abloker: um, I mean cat bugs...
abloker: good one
abloker: much better
neomorph: Why would I want to buy ore?
Ramerco: you wouldnt
Ramerco: not for this price
abloker: ypu dont
Ramerco: sometimes you buy to keep the store from having it
abloker: just for saving if you think it will go up
Ramerco: to inflate the price later
Ramerco: sometimes pirates come and steal ore and crystal though
Ramerco: so it is a risk
abloker: it increases when the store is low on it and mules
Drilan: 2oo
Ramerco: lol
Drilan: offer
Ramerco: blue?
Ramerco: you still have enough time with -1 food
Ramerco: just fyi
abloker: yup
Ramerco: for orange
abloker: just no whump[us
neomorph: how'd that happen?
abloker: what?
neomorph: seller below buyer
Ramerco: it wasnt
Ramerco: not on my screen
abloker: me either
Ramerco: press space
neomorph: f
Round 4
abloker: ha!
Ramerco: dude
Ramerco: dont exploit
Ramerco: thats bs
abloker: lame
Ramerco: next person doing that will bekicked
Ramerco: that or selling someone elses land
Ramerco: and you will be kicked
Ramerco: fair warning...
neomorph: What'd he do?
Ramerco: he raised the price way high
Drilan: thats fair play
neomorph: yeah
Ramerco: and ther eis no way to bring it low again
Ramerco: its not
abloker: slammed up the price even though he knew he wouldnt buy
Ramerco: he
Drilan: you have money
Ramerco: yeah, but he shouldnt be able to jack the price with no intention of buying
Ramerco: once you enter the land auction, you shouldnt be able to back all the way out
abloker: lame that is doesn't come back down
Ramerco: or the price should go back down to the start
Drilan: that is called strategy
Ramerco: if someone bids 1500 and then says no nevermind, someone else should still be able to bidthe start price
Ramerco: it is called exploiting a glitch
Drilan: to higher up the value of the lands
Ramerco: same as selling another players land
abloker: there we go
abloker: looks like you got the hang of it
Ramerco: how does it raise the value of land?
Drilan: since 1984 the game still the same
abloker: ouch
Ramerco: if noone buys, the next auction starts lower not higher
Ramerco: no its not the same, that was not the way the old one workd in auction
abloker: lame
Ramerco: it will only go low now
Ramerco: ore that is
Ramerco: you can sell to store
Ramerco: just go all the way down
Ramerco: great
Ramerco: base 3 and base 2
Ramerco: and i get 2 prod
neomorph: weird looking
abloker: yeah, its odd
Round 5

abloker: 12
abloker: bah
abloker: BATLIZAAARD
abloker: care to donate to the bat lizard child protection fund Drilan?
neomorph: is he moving?
abloker: yes
neomorph: I don't see it
abloker: I'm froze up now too
neomorph: Bummer
Ramerco: hmmm
Connection to neomorph timed out
abloker: odd
Ramerco: just wait a minute maybe
abloker: ok
Ramerco: oh orange timed out
abloker: yeah
Drilan: ??? what happen?
Computer takes over neomorph
neomorph was kicked
abloker: so, how does it work? we wait for him to get back?
abloker: ah
abloker: compy
abloker: nice
Ramerco: cpu now
Ramerco: i had to kick
abloker: I understand
abloker: and he moves with CPU quickness
abloker: umm, glitch?
abloker: he missed the mule
Ramerco: he has no money
abloker: ah
Ramerco: yeah glitch
abloker: hah! yes
Ramerco: lol
abloker: I mean no
abloker: NOOO!
abloker: I thought it was the store...
Ramerco: no, everywhere
abloker: yeah, I got it
abloker: well, ore will go up!
abloker: and I had like 7 crystite too!
Ramerco: yeah
Ramerco: bad timing for you
abloker: ah well
abloker: still in the lead, somehow
Round 6
Ramerco: you do it again?
Ramerco: why?
Ramerco: crystal man
Ramerco: haha
Ramerco: lucky plot picks
Drilan: you have money and can let you have it for less than that
abloker: it works!
Ramerco: meteor right next to high
Drilan: cant
abloker: yeah, its lucky
Ramerco: the point is it is a glitch
Ramerco: it should go back to the start price when you leave
Ramerco: the auction
abloker: don;t worry about it
Drilan: is not a glitch trust me
Drilan: have been playing since commodore and then nes
Ramerco: i played commodore also
abloker: you got a bad button or something?
Ramerco: i have it on emulator right now
Drilan: mee too
Ramerco: me?
abloker: ha
abloker: yeah. or just cant make up your mind
abloker: ?
Ramerco: just was thinking
abloker: This CPU is dumb
abloker: ah
abloker: cool
Ramerco: cpu is jsut glitched when low money
abloker: ah, ok
Ramerco: oh well, should have gone for ethe ore.. if only id known about the sunspots
abloker: this will help
abloker: AW!
abloker: LAME price
Ramerco: oops
Ramerco: lol jsut wanted +1
abloker: what?
abloker: its alright, got more for next
Ramerco: it will jsut spoil
Ramerco: only makes sense to kep +1
abloker: I dont think so at just 2
Ramerco: yeah, food spoils 1 for 2
abloker: maybe, dunno
abloker: the plot thickens!
Round 7
abloker: oh, you wanted that one drillan?
abloker: sorry
abloker: sorry to you to ramerco, but I think he wanted it more
Ramerco: haha
Ramerco: whatever
Ramerco: you cant say thats not a glitch though, no sale first auction cancels the second
abloker: yeah, that is a glitch
Ramerco: they really need to bring crystite eos or lct to this version...
abloker: whats that/
Ramerco: economy of scale and learning curve theory
abloker: ah, yes
Ramerco: eos gives adjacent plots of same type and same owner a +1 bonus
abloker: random is no good
Ramerco: lst gives +1 to all plots of a given type for every 3 you have
abloker: spots again
Ramerco: good luck
abloker: thanks
abloker: I'll take 16
Ramerco: oh, no just saying it was good luck to get them again
Ramerco: haha
abloker: ah
Ramerco: but good luck also.. crystite vs ore
Ramerco: wow, ore stayed quite high
abloker: yup
abloker: cross those fingers
abloker: 96?
Ramerco: risky business
abloker: I am a risk taking man
Ramerco: hoepfully no more pirates
abloker: um yeah
Ramerco: i have held for many turns before
abloker: me too
Ramerco: even bought at 88 or so in round 9
abloker: wow
Ramerco: that didnt work out well
Ramerco: lol
Ramerco: i bought too much and ran out of money for food that game
abloker: kill the compy
Ramerco: he is alreayd out of the running
abloker: true
Ramerco: he jst helps our overall score at this point
abloker: yeah, alright
Round 8
abloker: LAME
Ramerco: ohhh
Ramerco: there you go
abloker: have fun
abloker: I don't want it
Ramerco: you just have a bad ttitude
Ramerco: lol
Ramerco: close
abloker: but I'm certainly not letting you get it
Ramerco: i would rofl
abloker: why?

Ramerco: lol
abloker: nevermind
Ramerco: i wanted to get to 9 ore plots
Ramerco: to get +3 to all
abloker: ah
Ramerco: and i got it... barely but dbl pressed and dropped energy back down
abloker: I noticed
Ramerco: oh well
Ramerco: it happens
Ramerco: well had a crazy mule anyway
Ramerco: glad it was there
abloker: yup
Ramerco: :/
abloker: ARGH

Ramerco: haha thats good
Ramerco: if i was you, i would smash my keyboard
Ramerco: lol
Ramerco: not really
abloker: I may come and smash YOUR keyboard however
Ramerco: just figuratively
Round 9
Computer takes over Drilan
Drilan was kicked
abloker: serves him
Ramerco: i am sick of that
abloker: he was doomed anyway
abloker: ya made it!
Ramerco: if he was winning i wouldnt have kicked.. but i just couldnt take it any more
Ramerco: if that was meant to be in the game, then there wouldnt be land grants at all
Ramerco: i mean auctions
Ramerco: it just breaks them
abloker: I agree
abloker: no stupid computer, thats a crystite spot!
Ramerco: haha
Ramerco: this is the best i have seen anyone do with cryswtite in this version
Ramerco: except when there were two meteors for the same person
abloker: there can be two?
Ramerco: yeah
abloker: wow
Ramerco: i know
Ramerco: he had two meteor a high and thre med
Ramerco: it was nuts
abloker: I bet
Ramerco: and price stayed high forever
abloker: I sure hope my ship scomes in on this crystite
Ramerco: i am getting too much production now..
abloker: or you got me in the bag
Ramerco: although if its 150 you might be good to go
abloker: yes indeed
Ramerco: you will have abotu 46
Ramerco: omg
abloker: BWAUH
Ramerco: bad luck
abloker: might as well go all in
Ramerco: true
Ramerco: that could swing it if it gos to 140 or so
abloker: yup
Ramerco: this is an exciting one
abloker: yes indeed
abloker: compy wont sell?
Ramerco: stupid comp
Ramerco: lol

abloker: sorry
Ramerco: no, its cool
Ramerco: thats totally part of the game
abloker: I know
Ramerco: you ge tthe adv since you are behind
abloker: is that how it orders it?
Round 10
Ramerco: yeah
abloker: cool
Ramerco: whew
abloker: close
Ramerco: shoulda gone bot toget the +1
Ramerco: for being adjacent to another energy
Ramerco: oh well
abloker: yeah
abloker: blid

Ramerco: wow

abloker: Grrrr
Ramerco: now what do you do?
abloker: we stay

Ramerco: odds are it will ge ttehre
abloker: all at 0
Ramerco: oops didnt need tat much
