Bullet: yeah

bobc455: thanks

bobc455: hard to get used to the new controls

bobc455: I'm used to the old joysticks

Bullet: oh wow

Bullet: i played as a kid, but used the keyboard

Bullet: and i've played it multiple times here

bobc455: I didn't know you could use the keyboard

Bullet: i think so

bobc455: we just plugged in 4 joysticks

Bullet: i was about 10 at the time

bobc455: I can't figure out this port fowrading thing at all

Bullet: yeah, i don't know about that

bobc455: I thought you had to if you are the host

Bullet: i just start a new game

Bullet: ready

bobc455: hmm

Round 2 of 6

Bullet: i have trouble joining games though

Bullet: usually if i start the game, it makes it through w/o disconnecting

Bullet: oh, they changed it

bobc455: You can't leave town without outfitting your mule

Bullet: yeah, wasn't like that until they updated it today

Bullet: i was gonna let mules out and up the smithore price

bobc455: You could outfit him with food

Bullet: oh yeah

Bullet: i guess i could release them before i outfit my last plot too

Round 3 of 6

Bullet: space bar

Bullet: top right

Bullet: you gotta be facing the mountain where he popped out

Bullet: and start hitting the space

Bullet: crap

bobc455: Oof

Bullet: moose has got the chrystite!

Bullet: facing up at the mountain

bobc455: Hmm

bobc455: okay

Bullet: only two plots of land!

Round 4 of 6

bobc455: expensive mules

Bullet: yeah

bobc455: Mmm swamp eels

bobc455: sorry, it's been a few years since I've played

bobc455: well decades actually

Bullet: understandable

Bullet: takes a few games

Bullet: you know what you're doing already

bobc455: 2nd game

bobc455: rats, lost a mule

bobc455: and a mountain

Bullet: i don't remember much, i don't think i really understood it when i was a kid

Bullet: but i've played a bunch of games on this

bobc455: we used to play this for hours and hours

bobc455: this is 99% the same which is cool

Bullet: yeah, they supposedly tried to keep it real close to the original

Round 5 of 6

Bullet: where you at in the world?

bobc455: massachusetts

bobc455: usa

bobc455: you?

Bullet: switched on me!

bobc455: actually a friend of mine from atlanta emailed me about this game

Bullet: my bro here in nc told me about it

Bullet: fire

bobc455: forgot about those

Bullet: fire and pirates

Bullet: and earthquakes

bobc455: oh my

Bullet: ha

bobc455: sorry

Bullet: just watched a few mins of wizard of oz last night, actually

Round 6 of 6

bobc455: how come mechtrons never buy/sell last round?

Bullet: i dunno

Bullet: haven't figured that out

Bullet: why's he checking a river?

Bullet: you can't mine there

Bullet: i don't think

bobc455: you can, just does poorly

bobc455: besides I think christite is kinda random like that

bobc455: maybe its not built into his AI

Bullet: ah

Bullet: perhaps

Bullet: he'll make some seemingly stupid moves sometimes

Bullet: i haven't figure out if holding anything in the last round makes a difference

bobc455: I wish there was a way to know how the game valued the assets

Bullet: yeah

bobc455: well I will do like the mechtrons I guess... nothing

Bullet: land has a set value for assests

bobc455: right, 500 I think

Bullet: plain is worth one thing, 1 mtn is another

Bullet: or so i was told

bobc455: I thought all land was the same

Bullet: i dunno, i was told different, but that may be right

bobc455: I thought I read that somewhere today

bobc455: maybe I didn't read correctly

Game Over. Your progress has been saved.

Bullet: nah, i haven't checked the forum since last week

bobc455: nice!

Bullet: so you might be right

bobc455: come from behind

Bullet: nice

bobc455: never done much better than minimum standards

Bullet: i haven't made it beyond "your life won't be easy"

bobc455: I haven't on this game

Bullet: although there's 2 or 3 stages above that

bobc455: in the old days, we did better

moose48fan left the game

bobc455: sometimes

moose48fan was disconnected

bobc455: well it was fun, thanks

Bullet: how do you make it higher?

bobc455: have the colony total be higher

Bullet: yep, i'll look out for you. keep playing!

bobc455: lots of chrystite

bobc455: I think

Bullet: ah

bobc455: but that's kinda hard

bobc455: actually I think if you team up you can do it

Bullet: yeah, i saw the pattern on one of the forums once

bobc455: one person focuses on food and energy

Bullet: yeah, guess you gotta go for the collective

bobc455: then another focuses on smithore and chrystite

bobc455: then just work together - exchange the food at a cheap price

Bullet: wanna do a six rounder again?

bobc455: yeah

bobc455: nah

bobc455: thanks though

Bullet: yeah, next time

bobc455: its very late for me!

bobc455: lol

bobc455: usually asleep by 8:30

Bullet: wow

Bullet: tonight's a friday for me

bobc455: me too

bobc455: but I'm pretty tired

bobc455: thanks again, it was fun

bobc455: seeya!

Bullet: alright bob, cya!
