Round 1 of 12

smithers: spacebar picks a plot

Cyber Ranger: In order of precedence - bottom to top in the list on the left - each round...

Cyber Ranger: If you're at the top - you get last pick; doesn't mean you shouldn't try...

Cyber Ranger: And, be aware of THAT happening...

smithers: tap space bar to cath wampus

Cyber Ranger: Your feet have to be "in" the plot to drop a mule...

Cyber Ranger: And, you can do it while running - no need to stop...

Cyber Ranger: ...both feet - in the plot...

Round 2 of 12

Cyber Ranger: Buy plots - put mules on plots to make food/nrg, etc - to have food, nrg and make $$$ - to buy more plots...

smithers: did you screw up helmuth

smithers: ?

Cyber Ranger: This game is about "using" your money - not accumulating it...

Cyber Ranger: but, use your $$ to make more $$ - not collect interest...

Cyber Ranger: Once someone crosses the upper sales barrier - the store closes to sales, but not to the sellers...

Cyber Ranger: ...like that...

smithers: The wampus always appears in mountains that are not claimed

Cyber Ranger: ...only...

smithers: the high pitch sound the higher they are on the map

Cyber Ranger: ...for those that can hear that...

Cyber Ranger: ...as long as you have products - you can sell...
