Hydraski: I played on c64, atari and NES

piete: ive played a few days here already... ;)

Hydraski: I am really bad at it now

piete: and a couple of decades on c64

Hydraski: I'm so used to playing with friends where we all worked together

Round 1 of 12

piete: im used to play with back-stabbers... ;)

Oboenick23: That's okay...Before this week the last time I played I was 9.

Oboenick23: Or last week, rather.

Hydraski: I've come in 4th every time I've played so far

Hydraski: which has been twice

Oboenick23: I'm still not so great at this.

piete: you learn playing

Oboenick23: I was close to winning last night when the game froze in the 11th fround. :-P

piete: yeah, crashes suck

piete: on c64 it was perfect

piete: you could not afford bugs

Hydraski: is there anyway to skin this game to look like c64?

Hydraski: this map is much more confusing than the old version

piete: havent looked

Oboenick23: I'm sure it can be done by someone much smarter than me.

piete: im already used to this, tried the c64 on emu and it looked slow and ugly...

Hydraski: I just find it hard to tell the colors apart, they all are very pastely and don't contrast much

piete: thats being addressed, colorblinds have complained the same thing

Hydraski: well I'm not color blind but it could be improved a lot

Oboenick23: lol Beat me to it.

Round 2 of 12

piete: you did press fire?

Hydraski: is it faster to walk thru the store than the riverbed??

piete: river

Oboenick23: The wumpus is mobile tonight.

Hydraski: nooooooooo

Hydraski: oh wait

Round 3 of 12

Hydraski: haha that sucks

Hydraski: 2nd plot would have been so much better for you

piete: but it wont be auctioned if the 1st is not sold

Hydraski: true true

Oboenick23: whew

piete: press buttons

Round 4 of 12

piete: need more money

Oboenick23: Tinnitus, hit your button. It'll make this go faster.

Hydraski: SPACE BAR

Hydraski: doh

Hydraski: no need for ore hoarding

Round 7 of 12

Hydraski: My MULE can DANCE

Hydraski: spaaacebar

piete: tinnitus

Hydraski: someone like sthe drama

piete: and slow game

Hydraski: all part of the drama

Hydraski: it'd be nice to have a sell all option when dealing with the store

Oboenick23: Well, this game totally %&^*ing backfired on me,

piete: you didnt need to sell

Hydraski: you wanted expensive smithore, yeah?

Hydraski: my goal was to keep that from happening

piete: i want expensive smithore only when i got most of it ;)

Oboenick23: I'm never going to get it with all you selling to the store.

Hydraski: why I did it

Oboenick23: But I can never work it out such that I have the smithore and the money to buy out the store.

Round 8 of 12

Oboenick23: And that stupid-ass mountain has moved twice on me now.

Hydraski: Let my child die!

piete: yeah, i have been thinking about using only plains for smithore for the same reason...

piete: especially when it affects two plots it sucks alot

Hydraski: wait, mountains move???

piete: during planetquake, 50% chance

Hydraski: oh crap, I didn't realize that

Hydraski: was that true in the old version too?

piete: atari

piete: dunno why not on c64

Oboenick23: And all the crystite grass is greener on the other side of the fence. :-P

Hydraski: jeeze, I never noticed that

Hydraski: do Crystite deposites move during eathquakes?

piete: bc c64 was perfected taking away some minor "bugs"

piete: being 1st is great!

Round 9 of 12

Hydraski: if a property doesn't have any crystite, but you have more then 3 lands with it producing, will that non crystiste propery still make one unit?

piete: 2nd time in a row!

Oboenick23: Man, did I build on the wrong side of the board or what. :-P

Round 10 of 12

Hydraski: ooch

Hydraski: does food affect your property production, or only energy?

piete: energy

piete: food is time

Hydraski: goodbye food

Oboenick23: In this game, my dumbness is quite real. :-)

Hydraski: haha speaking of

piete: how many pests this time?

Hydraski: 3

piete: this game

Round 11 of 12

TiNNiTUS: ?

Hydraski: no one's really needs mules

piete: price wont rise unless you release mules

piete: ah, it did

Round 12 of 12

Hydraski: Let's hope for a good crystite price, eh?

piete: i just hope didnt help oboenick too much... ;)

Hydraski: the method there makes sense to me now

Oboenick23: I wouldn't worry. :-)

piete: down

Game Over. Your progress has been saved.

piete: i did!

Oboenick23: Wha?

Hydraski: oh that rascally simthore

piete: 500

Hydraski: you screwed us all

piete: congrats

Hydraski: hehe

Oboenick23: Good game.

Hydraski: yeah congrats

piete: good colony

TiNNiTUS: bye#

Hydraski: piete is your bff

Oboenick23: You guys played great. I hardly feel like I earned that. :-P

Hydraski: piete earned it for you, but that's the way it works

piete: my aim was not to raise that high

Hydraski: good game

piete: but its difficult...

Oboenick23: Yeah...tough to gauge.

piete: this game is really sensitive to smithore shortage

Hydraski: yeah, I didn't realize that could happen late in the game

Oboenick23: Might you have won had you left it alone?

TiNNiTUS left the game

TiNNiTUS was disconnected

piete: dunno, had less crystite

Hydraski: had piete not done that, things would be bery different

Hydraski: I think piete you would have won

piete: my problem was to balance between crystite and smithore

Oboenick23: You guys totally kicked my butt on the crystite.

Hydraski: I didn't realize you releasing mules affects things late in the game

piete: it does

Hydraski: after I don't have to buy mules I don't think about smithore usually

piete: ok, until next game

piete: bye

Hydraski: later

Hydraski: good game guys
