Round 2 of 12

Mega Byte: Not a good plot...

innsomatic: not for 500

Mega Byte: Taking an early crystite gamble. :)

Mega Byte: I guess

Mega Byte: ;)

Mega Byte: HOLY HELL

Mega Byte: You see that???

innsomatic: NICE

innsomatic: i know what i should be mining near you later on.

Mega Byte: Thanks

Mega Byte: :)(

innsomatic: i'm gonna hold on to it...

Mega Byte: LOL

Mega Byte: Good idea.

innsomatic: nice Crys for 80 not bad for a start.

innsomatic: good gamble though.

Mega Byte: Yeah, and I need the money

Mega Byte: Big gamble.

Mega Byte: But I have a plan... :)

Mega Byte: Milk them on the price.

Mega Byte: Crap

Mega Byte: Didn't want extra

Mega Byte: But next turn, I guess ok. It won't spils at 2

Mega Byte: This will hurt.

Mega Byte: Oh

Mega Byte: Right.. .I made some. :)

Mega Byte: HAHA

Mega Byte: Got him

Mega Byte: :)

Round 3 of 12

Mega Byte: Let 1 mule go

Mega Byte: I'll turn the rest lose at end of my turn

Mega Byte: GOT it

innsomatic: sweet!

Mega Byte: Would be a GREAT turn for the pirates to come now. :)

innsomatic: wow my prod SUCKED

Mega Byte: WOW

Mega Byte: I called it!

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: Don't sell

Mega Byte: Next turn, 230

Mega Byte: We can suck it at cash for 1 turn.

Mega Byte: There are no mules anyway. ;)

innsomatic: hopefully i get better prod next round.

Mega Byte: Don't buy food

Mega Byte: Buy energy

innsomatic: don't need food no mules.

Mega Byte: Yup

Mega Byte: Cool

Mega Byte: I was waiting for the bots to stop trading.

innsomatic: lol had to focus.

Mega Byte: haha

Round 4 of 12

Mega Byte: HEY

Mega Byte: ;)

innsomatic: mid crys there

Mega Byte: I know. hehe

innsomatic: moochin!

Mega Byte: :P

Mega Byte: Look at'm go!

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: Could have grabbed a wampus!

innsomatic: was gonna hunt.

Mega Byte: I'm screwed

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: Oh

Mega Byte: More time than I though.

Mega Byte: Must have had 1 left over.

Mega Byte: Didnt realize

Mega Byte: There we go

innsomatic: good call!

Mega Byte: Well, I've been working with the game designers for the next version of MULE so I've found out a lot about how it works by asking them. :)

Mega Byte: But they won't talk about Crystite.

Mega Byte: hehe

innsomatic: nice. hehe i could see why they need it to stay a mystery

Mega Byte: You should have walked him down more

Mega Byte: I'm happy to trade off getting him to come down.

innsomatic: i wasn't sure if he would, didn't realize till i was set.

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: It's ok.

Mega Byte: Back off, see if he moves, if he does, keep walking down.

Mega Byte: The only danger is the store line.

Mega Byte: But if its gone already, then you are ok.

Mega Byte: Nice!

Mega Byte: 2nd place now!

Round 5 of 12

innsomatic: GRRR

Mega Byte: Just fair warning, any auctions I'm out for blood

Mega Byte: So play to win. ;)

Mega Byte: Nice

Mega Byte: All yours

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: hehe

innsomatic: lol no thanks...i mean it looks nice but..no beaches or anything..

innsomatic: looks like some mules need to fly free.

Mega Byte: Whew

Mega Byte: Got hung on a mountain

Mega Byte: Thought I was dead

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: Yeah.

Mega Byte: If you can dump them, go for it.

Mega Byte: I used 3

Mega Byte: Even with ore in the store, 0 mule at end of turn will still keep the price high.

Mega Byte: AND screw the bots

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: NICE

Mega Byte: That counts

innsomatic: thats all folks.

Mega Byte: Note total is now 0

Mega Byte: HEHE

Mega Byte: Bots are like... WTF?

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: hehe

Mega Byte: Knew it would be mine when I heard that sound.

Mega Byte: No good events for 1st place. :)

Mega Byte: Don't sell.

innsomatic: 230 next round?

Mega Byte: Trust me on this.

Mega Byte: Yes.

Mega Byte: Bugger

Mega Byte: Well, only 1 mule next turn.

innsomatic: mmm i can taste the money.

Mega Byte: hehe

Mega Byte: I need to taste energy. ;)

innsomatic: ooh...good point.

Mega Byte: Wow, food's a good bet right now too.

innsomatic: hope thats cheap.

Mega Byte: Should be

Mega Byte: Store has some

innsomatic: won't need food with only 1 mule. i won't get it

Mega Byte: And we all over produced last round.

Mega Byte: Nope

Mega Byte: Bots will

Mega Byte: In last place

innsomatic: you'll get the mule.

Mega Byte: Thanks for helping buy out the store.

Mega Byte: No

Mega Byte: It goes in reverse order when there are less than 6

innsomatic: oh gotcha

Mega Byte: Ah

Mega Byte: 0 is ok

Mega Byte: I cna't place a mule anyway

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: Thanks for that.

innsomatic: i'll be alright

Mega Byte: Purple bot will get the mule

Round 6 of 12

Mega Byte: Hmmm

Mega Byte: 2 mules

Mega Byte: Well, he can have them.

Mega Byte: He's food stocking.

Mega Byte: We will pay through the butt for food next turn.

Mega Byte: Too bad they didn't sesnd you food package.

Mega Byte: Then you could have placed a food plot.

Mega Byte: And made a kiling, and stopped the bots.

Mega Byte: Ah

Mega Byte: He used them both.

innsomatic: yeah on food

Mega Byte: Yeah, I see that now.

Mega Byte: River, and next to it.

Mega Byte: We'll have plenty of money.

Mega Byte: Bloody quake.

innsomatic: ouch

Mega Byte: Yeah, but we're good...

Mega Byte: We had reserves.

innsomatic: well played

Mega Byte: Thanks

Mega Byte: Ditto

Mega Byte: Now we can afford to spend $1000 on food...

Mega Byte: FOr 1 turn.

Mega Byte: No big deal.

Mega Byte: Stay low, and walk them down once they start selling.

Mega Byte: I'll take the first one ok?

innsomatic: competition...lower the price.

Mega Byte: Now they can let the rest rot.

Mega Byte: Greedy pigs. :)

Mega Byte: Yes

innsomatic: gotta change that energy plot...

Mega Byte: Sorry, was just thinking about how many empty plots I have.

Mega Byte: Yeah

Mega Byte: Sweet.

Mega Byte: You're killing them now.

innsomatic: it did nothing for me

Round 7 of 12

Mega Byte: You take this one

Mega Byte: Come down.

innsomatic: it'll have low crys

Mega Byte: You need an advantage over the bots

Mega Byte: Nicely played

innsomatic: hehe tried to sneak in on you

Mega Byte: Just what I wanted.

Mega Byte: Hehe

Mega Byte: Yeah, I saw that.

Mega Byte: I decided to go for it.

Mega Byte: Crystite price will probably be around 99ish

Mega Byte: But good for a turn

Mega Byte: Wow

Mega Byte: We gimmped him 4 plots. :)

innsomatic: yeha i wanna start to switch...but mules are low...and if we kill the store we might just get it again

Mega Byte: hmmm

Mega Byte: Not sure how 0 mule will affect it.

Mega Byte: Mayb eit will be over 100 still.

Mega Byte: Perfect

Mega Byte: 2 turns, no more pirates.

Mega Byte: 113

Mega Byte: Excellent

innsomatic: don't sell?

Mega Byte: No, sell, sell sell

Mega Byte: Sorry, I don['ut answe without risking losing the sell possibilty.

innsomatic: hmm yeah its okay

Mega Byte: That's why I said over 100

Mega Byte: Ore is dead now without a store burn.

Mega Byte: SOrry mate.

innsomatic: i was thinking with no mules, if we bought the store, we'd take another gain on ore.

Mega Byte: Too much in the store.

Mega Byte: We need a food plot

Mega Byte: To break their hold on the store.

Mega Byte: Will try to put one down.

innsomatic: yeah...my solar is doing nothing.

Mega Byte: I have extra undeveloped plot

innsomatic: might as well be a farm

Mega Byte: So need 2

Mega Byte: LOL

Round 8 of 12

Mega Byte: Trying to get my 100 production turn

Mega Byte: Need plots. :)

Mega Byte: Hehe

Mega Byte: thanks

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: LOL

Mega Byte: Wasn't the greatest plan ever that one...

Mega Byte: LOL

innsomatic: just not enough time.

Mega Byte: HA

Mega Byte: Nice food production for my plot!

Mega Byte: DOH

Mega Byte: ORE!!!!! LOOK AT IT!!!!!

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: lol nothing from mine.

innsomatic: i knew i held out for a reason

Mega Byte: Dont selkk\\\

Mega Byte: \STOP\

Mega Byte: STOP

innsomatic: ?

Mega Byte: Give another full turn for production

Mega Byte: It will stay at 230

Mega Byte: Only after we pass 50 do we sell it.

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: sell crys?

Mega Byte: Sell this one

Mega Byte: It's random

Mega Byte: As we mentioned

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: There are only 6 ore, and 1 mule.

Mega Byte: We will use all the mules this turn, and then we can keep ore price up.

innsomatic: nicre

Mega Byte: We should not sell even if we have 50ish

Mega Byte: Just let a few spoil

Mega Byte: LOL

Mega Byte: They produced a crap load.

Mega Byte: I hadn't noticed.

Mega Byte: Yeah

Mega Byte: Now the trick is keep ore at 230 for a while.

Mega Byte: But a tough balance now that they put in 50 spoilage.

Mega Byte: He won't sell

Mega Byte: No matter how high youy push it up now.

Mega Byte: Bots always keep 1 extra

Round 9 of 12

Mega Byte: Nice land grab

Mega Byte: As soon as I hit the button, I said, "Should have taken that one"

Mega Byte: Then you got it. :)

innsomatic: i kept hitting when you went.

Mega Byte: LOL

Mega Byte: Leave it

Mega Byte: I need one

Mega Byte: Or use it.

Mega Byte: But dont' just let it go. :)

innsomatic: sorry chat came up too late.

innsomatic: i was hoping you'd notice i was looking for response.

Mega Byte: Bah

Mega Byte: Wish I had more time to think about what to do before the turn starts.

Mega Byte: BAH

Mega Byte: COme one... how many quakes this game!

Mega Byte: Don't sell

innsomatic: k

Mega Byte: We are fine for mony, and not on the 50 mark yet.

Mega Byte: So better to hold it and build up more stock before selling at 230

Mega Byte: Might not sell again, unless we arelly have to.

Mega Byte: I fear the elves

Mega Byte: OUCH

Mega Byte: I was trying to back off.

Mega Byte: :)

Mega Byte: Oh well, no mules

innsomatic: i backed off too far trying to screw the comp

Mega Byte: I just wont' swap out a energy plot now.

Round 10 of 12

Mega Byte: MAN this is a weird game.

Mega Byte: We are going to have a crap colony score this time. :)

Mega Byte: LOL

Mega Byte: Unless we sell ore this round, no way for me to get 100 production.

Mega Byte: But that's no big deal.

Mega Byte: There just won't be enough mules to place on all my empty plots

innsomatic: yeah its rough. we gotta get some ore back into the system soon...hopefully no quake this time

Mega Byte: Yeah

Mega Byte: I had one game... 3 quakes followed by 2 pirates.

Mega Byte: I lost...

Mega Byte: Here we go.

Mega Byte: Sell?

Mega Byte: Or hold?

Mega Byte: Up to you.

innsomatic: i say sell

Mega Byte: Ok

Mega Byte: I'm in.

innsomatic: were getting max money at good prod, now switch to crys and we should be set.

Mega Byte: It will still be good price next turn.

Mega Byte: Over 100

Mega Byte: Nice

Mega Byte: Crystite is up.

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: 140 on crys too

Mega Byte: Yeah

Mega Byte: that won't last.

Mega Byte: I think I will go for 100 production on Ore.

Mega Byte: I don't have time to convert all the plots and place new ones now.

Mega Byte: I don't think I can get the empty ones populated now even, let alone convert the energy plots that are left over.

Mega Byte: The plots on the right are killing me... big time suckers.

innsomatic: yeah if we can make energy or food we ounce the comp out completely.

Mega Byte: Leave 1 to keep store from being empty

Mega Byte: But I'm buying energy for 2 turns...

Round 11 of 12

Mega Byte: Nice one

Mega Byte: BAH

Mega Byte: Everything is SO spread out...

Mega Byte: No time.

Mega Byte: Should have left themn alone, and went for the empty ones...

Mega Byte: Bad plan.\

Mega Byte: I will get 3 down next turn, and still have 3 empty plots.

Mega Byte: At least I dumped a mule

innsomatic: leaves less in store, but their pretty much built up

Mega Byte: Yeah

Mega Byte: But that still helps at the end of the turn.

Mega Byte: 105 is nice.

Mega Byte: But I should have focused on empty plots

Mega Byte: Would have more in production at least then.

Mega Byte: No chance to get 5 in place in 1 turn. :)

Mega Byte: 3 is max

Mega Byte: I'll get 3 down, but that will be it.

Mega Byte: Don't need to be screwed by elves now with food only 15 each.

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: we could use a good store fire

Mega Byte: Too late

Mega Byte: Nice

Mega Byte: Leaving 1 last time forced them to a price.

Mega Byte: That was a good plan...

Round 12 of 12

innsomatic: no need to sell assets on this one. last roung

Mega Byte: That was ok...

Mega Byte: Nope

Mega Byte: ALl is fine, regardless of price.

Mega Byte: Just goes faster.

Mega Byte: Congrats, you are in 2nd too. :)

Mega Byte: You beat the bots.

Mega Byte: Our score will be surprisingly better than I thought actually, even with all these empty plots.

Mega Byte: It was the store fires at the "wong/right" time that shifted things in this game.

innsomatic: yeah. ii'd say we did good as a colony...just needed to pull more energy

Mega Byte: Had it not been for that, we'd have been selling lots of ore cheap, and making mules

Mega Byte: ANd I'd have populated everything in crystite like I did last time.

Mega Byte: Just tried to hedge a bit this turn from my last one.

Mega Byte: Won't make much difference.

Mega Byte: haha

Mega Byte: Ore... squat

innsomatic: does crys have higher asset value?

Mega Byte: It is = to store sell value

Mega Byte: So maybe, maybe not

innsomatic: gotcha. okay.

Mega Byte: In this case, it is 136, so yeah, better than ore

Mega Byte: But that doesn't always happen.

Mega Byte: And I hear lots of people whine about how they lost the game in round 12 because crystite price dropped to squat.

Mega Byte: hehe

innsomatic: that would suck

Mega Byte: That's why its a gamble, and if I can manipulate the ore market, I will always take that over crystite.

Mega Byte: Llike we did this game.

Mega Byte: And game before that I exploited Ore to keep price low, while I massed crystite plots.

Game Over

Saving score, please wait...

Mega Byte: (Giving away evil secrets now... ;)

Mega Byte: Nice game my friend.

Mega Byte: What is your name?

innsomatic: shawn

innsomatic: nice to meet cha man

Mega Byte: Weird, weirdest game ever maybe even.

Mega Byte: Cheers, you as well.

innsomatic: lol yeah not a bad col total

Mega Byte: Now I have to make dinner. :)

Mega Byte: Yeah.

innsomatic: holy crap dude.

Mega Byte: But those days are over now that they've "fixed" the smithore price fixing.

innsomatic: gotcha

Mega Byte: And I thank you for helpming me get into 6th place too.

Mega Byte: :)

innsomatic: well, off to the next one

Mega Byte: Cool.

Mega Byte: Night.
