napier: jeez I'm messing up a lot.

AlphaCrow: trying to put a mule on gabriels plot instead of mine screwed me ;)

Round 9 of 12
Round 10 of 12
GabrielPope: Looks like that energy buyout won you the game
GabrielPope: events have not been kind to me, two planetquakes when I was the #1 smithore producer, then an acid rain when I needed energy :/
AlphaCrow: I've been short on both food and energy at times
AlphaCrow: sell a mule ;)
GabrielPope: yes, but those were in early turns
GabrielPope: most of the money gets made in the last several turns
AlphaCrow: awww
the7tidlys: it has been a cruel game for everyone but me, and i am still last
GabrielPope: dammit
GabrielPope: if I'd had energy I'd still be in the running :/
Round 11 of 12
GabrielPope: well, tidlyis just secured the victory for you Alpha
AlphaCrow: or himself
GabrielPope: nah, he doesn't have enough
the7tidlys: hopefully me
GabrielPope: not even close
GabrielPope: if I'd gotten it I could've closed the gap, but you're only selling 100 or so at $230 a pop, max
Round 12 of 12
GabrielPope: actually... hmm
GabrielPope: this isgoing to be close
Game Over. Your progress has been saved.
the7tidlys: damn
AlphaCrow: wow, gg
GabrielPope: holy cow
GabrielPope: we have a kickass colony
the7tidlys: that is a big colony score
napier: good game
the7tidlys: i think maybe biggest
GabrielPope: well, machinus has one that's bigger
the7tidlys: yeah just short we are 226059
GabrielPope: but I doubt that was an honest game
GabrielPope: (it was 2 humans and 2 AIs, for starters)
the7tidlys: evil games result in bigger scores i think
GabrielPope: looks like there is one "real" colony that came in at 217k
napier: I wonder how high the colony score can get?
AlphaCrow: wow
napier: If players worked as a team? maybe quite hi.
GabrielPope: the colony as a whole should be able to produce something like 300 smithore a turn in the last few turns if everyone is working together...
GabrielPope: as a minimum
GabrielPope: sell all that at $230, and, well...
napier: yeah. force the store up.
napier: produce just enough energy annd food to get by
GabrielPope: if you want to be super-cooperative, have one person do all food and one do all energy--that way the bonuses help cut down on land usage
napier: right. max out the smithore production. each player specializes
napier: in one type
GabrielPope: anyhow, good game everyone! this is probably one of the best competitions I've ever played
napier: so you maximize production
the7tidlys: and only take four plots of land for food
the7tidlys: good game all
GabrielPope: everyone seriously looked like they were going to win at some point
the7tidlys: yeah it was very close
