Samvega: hello
Samvega: Wow, 53 games. A veteren
Samvega: veteran*
Robbie: Hi. Must jump to the kitchen for short...
Robbie: Hehe right
Agamemnon: Hi. I'm a newbie. That should even out the veteran;-)
Samvega: k, We'll wait a minute or two longer for another
Samvega: Great.. I'm pretty new myself. Don't feel disheartened by your first game.. just tough it out and youll learn alot.
Samvega: Where you two from? Tampa Florida here
Robbie: Ok back. Yers we should wait for another human player. Im from Germany
Agamemnon: I have already learned that pressing "ctrl" to zoom in "readies" me. Seems I cannot "unready"?
Samvega: No big deal.
Samvega: Germany eh? Are you German or just living there?
santye visits
Agamemnon: What's the weather in Tampa?
santye left the game
Samvega: Highs in the 50's this week
Robbie: Im native German
Samvega: Fareneheit, that is. That would be quite warm in celcius
Robbie: Aga, only use Spacebar. Toggeling Ready to unready
Agamemnon: I see. Thank you!
Robbie: If you know the original game, some things are different. For eg. you must press SPACE over a mountain to catch wampus not only walk above.
Agamemnon: I like this zooming in MAC OS. But needs time to get used to it.
Agamemnon: I'm back in 3 mins.
Robbie: Always funny to see ppl. are in lobby the whole day but dont play and dont answer. Like Levend an goodhope there for eg.

m dude 923 joined the game in slot 4

vox visits
vox left the game
Samvega: What happens if the host drops? Game ends?
Robbie: Nope. Only once more pressing space needed
Round 1 of 12
Robbie: Ah wrong answer
Robbie: yes if you drop the game is abondoned
Samvega: Not that I plan on dropping, but it seems like there should be a feature that allows the host to switch over to CPU in case he has to leave. That way the whole game doesnt have to end.
m dude 923: MOTHERFUCKER
Samvega: I hate when that happens
Agamemnon: Bad luck!
Robbie: Problem with this, is, that the PC of the game host hosts the game. Not the server of planetMULE
Samvega: Yeah, but it'd still allow the host to get up and leave. He'd just have to keep his computer running
Robbie: In this case it would be nice to play further on. But most time the ppl which host close the program. Or connection times out.
Robbie: For the newbies: Pressing space in production phase speeds up the production
Round 2 of 12
Robbie: Grrr i wqas for the last plot right there too. :( So i didnt get any :(
Samvega: One thing that I have found is that you should never compete with the host in anything that requires timing. He will always win because he has the better ping!
Robbie: right :(
Robbie: And if a A.I. player is in game youll never have a chance to get a plot against him
m dude 923: rais the price really high
Round 3 of 12
Robbie: Press SPACE, yepp
Samvega: lucky with crystite aga
Agamemnon: Yeah. With the c64 you did not need that.
Round 4 of 12
m dude 923: ?
Robbie: Speculation
Samvega: ouch
Samvega: starving colony
Samvega: your energy will spoil
Robbie: If you dont sell to store, just loose money.
Robbie: And why produce energy, if not sell it?
Round 5 of 12
Robbie: Not to sell, to raise the prices for goods only make sense if there is nothin in store.
m dude 923: buy the last mule!
Agamemnon: Thanks.
Samvega: Oh I wouldn't have done that.. I thought my turn was last
Samvega: sorry
Round 6 of 12
Samvega: Looks like this is gonna be a crystite game
Robbie: yeah
Agamemnon: too far away ...
m dude 923: haha, its worth like nothin
Round 7 of 12
Samvega: all the special land is gone
Samvega: noooooo
Agamemnon: Greed is a sin.
Robbie: Not in this game ;)
Samvega: SOB mule
m dude 923: haha
Round 8 of 12
Agamemnon: Good luck!
Agamemnon: That was unnecessary!
Samvega: Yeah I think sometimes that I have more time than I actually do
m dude 923: boo
Agamemnon: What the hell was that? Did I accedentally touch space, or what?
Robbie: looked like
Agamemnon: damned mac keypad!
Round 9 of 12
Round 10 of 12
Robbie: Sam, if you hadnt sold your ore to held the price high, i guess you would win for sure.
Round 11 of 12
Round 12 of 12
m dude 923: ESCAPE
Robbie: hehe
Robbie: cannot escape
Game Over. Your progress has been saved.
Samvega: gg all
Robbie: Good game, nice work with the ore.
Samvega: You shouldn't have let me manipulate ore like I did
Samvega: Colony did well tho
Robbie: Yep. But this isnt easy...
m dude 923: good game
Agamemnon: So that is "smithore strategy"? Interesting.
m dude 923: ?
Robbie: But will change in next version i guess
Samvega: Yeah.. it usually wins... except in some cases
m dude 923: whens it comin out
Samvega: Yeah, I think they are going to tweak it so it isnt as easy
Agamemnon: Did that exist in the c64 version, too? Never tried it.
Robbie: If others produce a bit ore and are able to sell it to store, they keep prices low.
Agamemnon: mdude: why did you always depress prices for energy and food?
Samvega: gg, see you guys around
Robbie: In original game, ore has a spoilage. So this dont work
