hudson: rhish hit the button
poobslag: the store needs smithore to build MULES with, guys
napier: yup
Rhishisikk: Yes, that's how miners produce their spikes.
poobslag: if you guys don't sell smithore to the store, the price is going to go up
poobslag: that's immoral
hudson: yup we are eveel
poobslag: that's why wall street is in such a pickle

hudson: oh great
poobslag: bah
hudson: you guys are kidding me
hudson: thanks
poobslag: i got $61 buddy
hudson: so what I have 31 :)
poobslag: plus you stand to gain a lot more from a high smithore price than i do
hudson: I'm really looking at napier here

hudson: I could use some right now

hudson: ...
poobslag: phew now the store can build us mules
poobslag: you're just not thinking in the store's best interest, hudson

poobslag: mule one oh one

poobslag: bah
poobslag: that was for you hudson
poobslag: i'm trying my best to raise smithore prices
poobslag: by setting mules free for you
hudson: thx very heartwarming
hudson: hahaah
hudson: great
Rhishisikk: Notice it crushed his mule. :)
hudson: I'm really more referring to the smithore prie
hudson: ce
poobslag: yeah, he thought they might go up
poobslag: but there's just too much production for the store to raise its price
poobslag: :(
hudson: be smart, don't sell
hudson: till they pay up :)
hudson: oh boy
poobslag: $216 is a lot of money!
hudson: nah I'd have gouged you guys for more :)
poobslag: that's because you're mean :(
Rhishisikk: I wanted to gouge for more...
Round 9 of 12
hudson: damn market crashers have no room totalk
hudson: don't really need a plot at this point :)
poobslag: tsk! i'm not a market crasher
Rhishisikk: I didn't crash the energy market, I'm just profiteering (being mean about pricing)
hudson: not you, him
poobslag: he's talking about me selling the colony smithore
poobslag: whoa! jackpot
poobslag: that's amazing
poobslag: you've been sitting on a gold mine all this time
hudson: lol
hudson: wait, what?
hudson: I have zero production???
poobslag: i'll have to check the board
poobslag: acid rain cut it in half
poobslag: so combined with bad luck, i guess it could be zero
hudson: man... something stupid happened last game too
hudson: I lost two mules up top on rnd 9
hudson: no explanation
Round 10 of 12
napier: earthquake kills mules sometimes
hudson: really? never seen that..
poobslag: that's not in the c64 version - they added it for the atari version and ported it here:
hudson: dunno if there was an earthquake, forgot to note game number
poobslag: plantequake has the random ability to move a mountain horizontally,
poobslag: and if that happens both mules die
hudson: oh that would explain it
poobslag: hmm napier was short on energy?
Rhishisikk: Not that I noticed...
poobslag: yeah weird, oh - he changed two of his energy plots maybe,
poobslag: and that cut him short?
Rhishisikk: Adding mules can cut you short.
napier: yeah
poobslag: tsk rhyshy, you pushover
Rhishisikk: I am, I should just go Crystite from game start.
napier: didn't think it would stay that hi
poobslag: heh, i tried that once, it doesn't go so well
poobslag: i won but i wasn't playing with good players
Round 11 of 12
Rhishisikk: I just don't have the "go for the jugular" reflex I need to do well in the game. As long as I'm not last, I'm happy...
poobslag: well,
poobslag: i've had people complain when i sold energy for ~$600
poobslag: oh! i forgot,
hudson: MARKET CRASHER!
hudson: :P
poobslag: i did the same thing napier did before
poobslag: that's terrible
hudson: oh wait this is 11
hudson: lolz
Rhishisikk: Yup, this and one more turn.
hudson: I've totally secured my last place position by the last brilliant energy exchange
hudson: go me!
poobslag: i was stupid to trade out my energy plots
poobslag: i don't think i'm going to get 2nd anymore
poobslag: wow, the price went up! didn't see that coming
Rhishisikk: Energy is wonky, store burned too many times.
poobslag: well it's all supply and demand,
hudson: see how nice I am
poobslag: there's 24 demand, but not a lot of supply
Rhishisikk: Acid rain.
Round 12 of 12
napier: very close game
napier: let's see
poobslag: well, i'm locked in third,
poobslag: but it's interesting between you and rhish
poobslag: wow!
poobslag: bad for me
Rhishisikk: I think he has it, actually.
poobslag: yeah he does
napier: let's see how enerrgy is
poobslag: yeah,
poobslag: there's a lot more supply, i think that affects price
poobslag: mhm
hudson: boo
napier: yup. lot's of supply
