piete: hi!
GabrielPope: Huzzah! Vengeance will be mine this day
piete: 1 more
Stormdancer: Doesn't usually take long to get another. And what vengeance is that, Gabriel?
piete: difficult to get games
piete: i played 1 with 3 humans, 1st dropped round 2, second round 7ish, finished with 3 ai...
GabrielPope: I lost to piete a couple days ago. Technically I lost to a shoddy piece-of-crap hosting connection, but he won the game after the host's connection crapped on me, so I'm taking it out on him
Stormdancer: Hehehe!
piete: hey, i cant help if your ai sucks... ;)
GabrielPope: my AI is awesome
Stormdancer: I'm annoyed because my 'abandoned' rate is so huge... due to the game crashing like crazy in the early days. Now it just crashes like... uh... less-crazy.
GabrielPope: it makes more money and has sex with more women than you (and me, sadly.)
GabrielPope: it just needs work at playing M.U.L.E.
piete: lets hope you wont have to resort to it this time
Stormdancer: But it's sex with MULEs that matter, here!
GabrielPope: never! bonzoids are far too classy to stoop to robobeastiality
piete: my wife already asked how many of the players here are single divorced...
piete: so i guess tomorrow i wont show up here
Stormdancer: HAH! Erm... still hitched, here. :p
piete: theres one immol who started new game!

piete: great! game on
Stormdancer: Woohoo!
Round 1 of 12
piete: i have a joystick but cant play with it this time, its brand new comp pro 5000 usb and clicks really loud...
Stormdancer: Not like the good ol' C=64 sticks... very quiet. :p
Stormdancer: At least ONE person opted to make food... thank goodness.
GabrielPope: turn 1 food doesn't matter all that much anymore, since you don't get things like glac elves followed by fire anymore
Stormdancer: Wow. Pathetic. *whips mules harder*
Round 2 of 12
Stormdancer: Damn catbugs.
piete: when im 2nd i lose a plot. when somebody else is, they receive one
piete: for me safe is only 3/4
GabrielPope: happy starving
GabrielPope: cheapskates
Stormdancer: Mmmmm.... delicious hunger.
piete: ones plenty
piete: hope for land auctions
Round 3 of 12
Stormdancer: Laggy, there.
piete: is it lag or am i seeing you stop?
Stormdancer: Sadly, scrod.
piete: had i known that would have opted for food...
piete: would be a nice option choose the productive plots when energy shortage
Stormdancer: Wouldn't it though?
GabrielPope: dun dun dun :(
Round 4 of 12
piete: waiting for package... ;)
Stormdancer: Heh. You & Me Both.
GabrielPope: well, at least you're in the lower ranks
GabrielPope: that gives you decent odds
Stormdancer: All part of my plan. :p
piete: yeah, technically possible...
piete: on c64 it was part of strategy...
piete: :(
Stormdancer: Not quite THIS far down, tho.
piete: it will come one day... ;)
GabrielPope: hah hah, oh geez
GabrielPope: vadtec is going to make a killing selling to the store
Stormdancer: Yay! Right where I'd have planted some lovely wheat.
GabrielPope: it killed my energy ;(
Stormdancer: Wow. 100% killed it.
GabrielPope: heh, food is still at $15
piete: wont rise until transaction
Stormdancer: Yeah, food & power don't climb like they should.
GabrielPope: it's not rising because vadtec has too much
GabrielPope: now it will
piete: auch, wanted to buy only 1
Round 5 of 12
piete: this is what makes this games so awesome, each game is unique
Stormdancer: Yup!
piete: you can be king in one game and fool in another
Stormdancer: This king thing of which you speak....
piete: now youre in too
piete: you need money too ;)
Round 6 of 12
Stormdancer: Yeah... that's handy stuff to have.
piete: dont like being 1st? ;)
piete: one game a guy pushed the price and didnt get down in time, paid ~4500...
Stormdancer: Owwwwwwwww.
piete: well played
Stormdancer: Food & Power. Yay.
GabrielPope: well, food eventually :)
piete: auch
Stormdancer: ...
Stormdancer: Oooo, mountain moved. First time I've seen that.
piete: happens to me all time, of course on my plots... ;)
piete: only thing c64 doesnt haved
piete: surprised me 1st time played atari version

Stormdancer: For the low low price of gack!
piete: nice but doesnt buy mules
Round 8 of 12
piete: auch
Stormdancer: Mmmm.
piete: auch x2
Stormdancer: Yeah... after that, all you can do is drink heavily.
GabrielPope: but oh no! no one invested in boozeore :(
Stormdancer: Mmmmm. Boozeore.
piete: doesnt make me feel relieved, have played already 2 games where 2 players lost a plot
piete: and i had 2 radiations in one game, wonder if that was possible in original...
GabrielPope: all events occured at least twice in original
piete: no money
Stormdancer: Tch!
piete: ok, back to basics...
piete: pirates or no pirates?
Stormdancer: Pyrates. :)
GabrielPope: doh :(
GabrielPope: vadtec has like a hojillion dollars in crystite, put him in the lead :(

Stormdancer: D'oh!
piete: there you go...
GabrielPope: nice!
Stormdancer: Close. Busy day!
GabrielPope: vadtec wtf
Stormdancer: Hehehe.
Stormdancer: Oldschool.
GabrielPope: vadtec, you're killing yourself
piete: 2nd lost plot on 2nd place, my typical luck...
GabrielPope: you have less than 10 smithore vadtec!
GabrielPope: you're the last person that should be driving up smithore
GabrielPope: boom!
piete: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Stormdancer: Your mule! It's smooshy!
GabrielPope: you still have your 6, though
piete: and the mountains are gone
piete: twas my best plot
GabrielPope: vadtec is secretly piete playing on a 2nd computer, admit it :(
piete: i think i wouldve sold me some food in the beginning...
GabrielPope: a clever ruse
Stormdancer: You really need to get past that self-loathing.
piete: yeah, long-term diversion...
GabrielPope: you were just trying to lull us for your smithore coup de grace
Stormdancer: That kind of self-destructive behavior... it's just bad for you.
Stormdancer: TWO? I made.. TWO?
Stormdancer: It's MULE beatin' time!
piete: i wonder if i can lose 2 plots in one game...
Round 10 of 12
Stormdancer: I think this colony's gonna be livin' in tents, and eatin' beans.
piete: night logistics isnt my game...
Stormdancer: FOUR undeveloped plots. Mhrf.
piete: im sure i can lose another plot
Round 11 of 12
GabrielPope: BULL. SHIT.
GabrielPope: I was holding down the button and you're in first
piete: something good being host...
piete: but youre right, its not just
piete: stormdancer shouldve got it
piete: they should tweak that part
Stormdancer: And I was busy pushin'.
Stormdancer: Kerspang!
GabrielPope: phew, no pirates
Stormdancer: THIS time, pirates.
GabrielPope: SHIIIIIIIT
GabrielPope: I have two plots :(
Stormdancer: I know.... suuuuucks.
GabrielPope: what the
Round 12 of 12
Stormdancer: I've seen bigger spreads between 1st and 4th.
GabrielPope: well, I concede
GabrielPope: this host shit is really just ridiculous
Stormdancer: You just gotta host 'em, Gabriel! :)
piete: next time you host, ok?
GabrielPope: need to fix my router
piete: you know about that stuff?
Stormdancer: Yeah... mine's foo. It gives me an "Unknown Error" when I try to reconfig it. :/
GabrielPope: I had it working at one point, then I fiddled with it when people were over for the holidays and now I can't get it working again
piete: i have a cable modem and another with wlan, have to use the w/o one to receive signal but can i use the other as a router? both are motorola
GabrielPope: although I'd still like to know where the hell that magic $3000 lead came from
GabrielPope: jesus, look at that
piete: 20 smithore=1000, 2 more land =1000
GabrielPope: your lead jumped up more than 2000 in that turn, though
GabrielPope: that's +1 land and +20 smithore vs. +12 crystite
piete: dunno then
piete: but you saw what i asked? do you know about that stuff?
GabrielPope: not really
GabrielPope: I just fiddle with it at random
piete: i did that 1 day
Stormdancer: Portforward's stuff is pretty good, but... apparently my router's got some kind of brainworm.
Game Over. Your progress has been saved.
GabrielPope: good game, hosting shenanigans notwithstanding
piete: thanks guys. gabriel, fix your router!
Stormdancer: Wow... no tents! : P
piete: bye, until next game
GabrielPope: sad thing is, there's still no guarantee I'll get any MAGIC FREE LANDS just by hosting :(
piete: and no smithore coups
Stormdancer: Seeya! Good game, all.
GabrielPope: no more playing with your stunt double piete
piete: :)
GabrielPope: seriously vadtec wtf
