poobslag: it's the worst

piete: i have

cyounghusband: yeah, that's a bit too mean

C64 nostalgia: i need to stop reading during my turn

C64 nostalgia: the chat

piete: i should be doing other things but am just too lazy...

piete: anyway, this will be last game tonight for me

C64 nostalgia: it't THE game

maskdbandt: sell your ore to me

C64 nostalgia: we selling

maskdbandt: i guess because last time piete did... i need to stay a little behind you guys at least instead of a lot! :)

maskdbandt: piete, you want to stay in 1st eh

maskdbandt: ah crap!

piete: :)

maskdbandt: i thought you had me with the sell

piete: your goods value the same

Round 3 of 12

cyounghusband: it was the bonuses last turn...

maskdbandt: i should've kept my food i guess :)

piete: auch

maskdbandt: as long as you guys sell ore, you'll all pass me :)

maskdbandt: thx for saving me a mule!

piete: good thing is that i cant have glac-elves again!

piete: damn

Round 4 of 12

piete: auch, there are no mules!

piete: thanks!

cyounghusband: harsh

maskdbandt: whoops :)

cyounghusband: ha ha

maskdbandt: sorry guys, had to do it

cyounghusband: all part of the game

maskdbandt: piete bought the plot instead of me :)

piete: you know what they say about 1st founder, he doesnt need to be liked! ;)

maskdbandt: heh... i didn't think piete was going to sell energy either last round

maskdbandt: jackpot down there, cy

poobslag: i think he did it to stay in 2nd place?

maskdbandt: mule goes crazy

Warning: Game is not synchronized with poobslag

piete: oh

maskdbandt: game not synch'd with poob.. you not there?

poobslag: i'm here

poobslag: i got that error too

piete: no more fires

maskdbandt: it says it's not synched with you, poob

maskdbandt: ok

poobslag: hmm yeah i think it's starting to go haywire,

cyounghusband: i'm not having lag problems anyway

piete: 2 in 4 rounds

poobslag: piete had a pretty unusual turn wher ehe set a mule free

piete: no pirates yet

maskdbandt: course no pirates yet!

piete: i didnt set mule free

poobslag: i thought it was some crazy strategy that i wouldn't understand but yeah i think i'm just out of sync

poobslag: guess i'll see you guys later, thanks for letting me watch

maskdbandt: cheers

poobslag left the game

maskdbandt: see, i'm nice sometimes

piete: thanks! ;)

cyounghusband: it was mask that is letting the mule free range

maskdbandt: heh, perhaps i should've sold at THAT price :)

maskdbandt: wth?

cyounghusband: higest i've ever sold at...but now I'm the target

piete: got me where i wanted!

Round 5 of 12

maskdbandt: just like the other time i played you , piete

maskdbandt: heh

piete: no more plots

cyounghusband: wish they would fix this

maskdbandt: i should've just paid more last round :)

piete: but you dont get this much money in original either

C64 nostalgia: i'm okay with it, maybe slow it a little bit down

piete: im not saying that it shouldnt be fixed

piete: but since it there, if i didnt do it somebody else would

cyounghusband: well, the concept of the overbid and withdrawing just doesn't make any sense

maskdbandt: yeah , that's ashame

maskdbandt: they should force you to not retract like orig... i thought it made it so you can't go below the line?

piete: actually, ive paid 4000 for a plot

maskdbandt: to purposely slingshot later in the game ? :)

piete: dont remember

maskdbandt: i've paid 2k max

maskdbandt: nice foot action!

maskdbandt: nice

piete: lost my steps a bit...

C64 nostalgia: wow, i need to stop reading the chat during my turn grrrr...

C64 nostalgia: i like watching piete deveolp

piete: no pirates yet

maskdbandt: yeah, i need to tempt them

maskdbandt: wow 207 :)

maskdbandt: i'm not selling

maskdbandt: sorry

maskdbandt: ok i lied :)

piete: shouldnt have sold...

maskdbandt: free plot for c64 or me!

Round 6 of 12

maskdbandt: you or me shouldn't have sold?

piete: im very experienced plot-loser from 2nd place

piete: i shouldnt

piete: or in general

maskdbandt: i wouldn't have sold the energy but since yo did, figured i might as well sell 1

piete: and in my games other people receive plot at 2nd place

maskdbandt: i never receive plot in 2nd.. but yeah you're right i've seen others

cyounghusband: 2nd place can't receive good things

piete: i just did

piete: 2nd place is either or

piete: 1st place never good, 3 and 4 only good

piete: pest should visit 1 or 2 but ive never seen it visit 2

maskdbandt: buy it out c64 :)

maskdbandt: the mules!

piete: neither radiation

maskdbandt: i think cy will win... good cry plots

piete: dont buy to spoil

cyounghusband: damn

C64 nostalgia: yep

cyounghusband: now I think c64 will win!

piete: :)

maskdbandt: c64 you could've saved the spoiled ones for me! :)

piete: situations change fast

piete: let it spoil

piete: rather than sell to me

maskdbandt: heh :)

piete: damn

Round 7 of 12

maskdbandt: no mules!

cyounghusband: dammit...

piete: c64 is playing very risky...

piete: no food next turn

maskdbandt: i won't be selling food or energy

maskdbandt: you have the high on your river plot, cy :)

C64 nostalgia: i think i would have run out of energy if i did turn it... last thought

C64 nostalgia: *didn't

maskdbandt: crap, only 4 energy produced :(

piete: good investment for c64

cyounghusband: no kidding, second time the same plot didn't produce 1...

C64 nostalgia: i'll make a deal for food

piete: ill make a deal for energy ;)

cyounghusband: i have food to sell...

maskdbandt: no one is going to sell energy

maskdbandt: no one has any

C64 nostalgia: one for one

maskdbandt: extra, that is

C64 nostalgia: tes?

C64 nostalgia: yes?

maskdbandt: pirates next time

C64 nostalgia: one food for one energy

C64 nostalgia: ?

maskdbandt: i would trade a food for energy

maskdbandt: but not sure if it will happen

cyounghusband: ok.

piete: do you have energy c64?

maskdbandt: cy will do it for sure

C64 nostalgia: sure

piete: ill trade

maskdbandt: food auction first, c64 doesn't need it heh :)

piete: one energy

C64 nostalgia: yes

piete: auch

maskdbandt: he can buy first

cyounghusband: hmm

maskdbandt: i knew that wasn't going to work out lol :)

cyounghusband: hmpth.

Round 8 of 12

C64 nostalgia: did i not sell to the right person?

cyounghusband: no...

maskdbandt: nope , i thought cy gave you the food

maskdbandt: cy was ahead of piete so it sold the energy to piete

C64 nostalgia: i'm so sorry... i thought it was piete

C64 nostalgia: please forgive me

piete: im sorry i bought but at least i paid well ;)

cyounghusband: i'll survive

piete: problem is that you cant chat during auctions

maskdbandt: this is a tough game!

piete: but a good one

maskdbandt: yep, i'm enjoying it

maskdbandt: good to play with people that know what they're doing

maskdbandt: but i want my free plot before i try to get into 1st ;)

piete: :)

piete: where are pirates?

maskdbandt: next round i hope

cyounghusband: no kidding

maskdbandt: i don't want it to be when i'm the only 1 converying! :)

cyounghusband: this puts the crystite game at serious risk at this point

piete: c64, ill sell you one

piete: where were you=

piete: ?

maskdbandt: i'm surprised c64 didn't want to buy?

Round 9 of 12

maskdbandt: here come the pirates!

maskdbandt: heh

cyounghusband: heh...that seemed like an extra long pregnant pause before they showed up

maskdbandt: ah not selling to me, piete? :)

piete: only 1 surplus

piete: wont spoil so i need it myself

piete: i do that too but not for that price...

maskdbandt: he can afford it :)

Round 10 of 12

maskdbandt: only 1 successful land auction entire game

C64 nostalgia: damn first curse

cyounghusband: yeah, can't believe it will be round 11 before all plots are gone

maskdbandt: ugh!

piete: pirates round 11?

maskdbandt: i hope so

maskdbandt: that's not something you see with people that don't know what they're doing :)

piete: knew it...

cyounghusband: close

Round 11 of 12

cyounghusband: (among the last 3 anyway)

maskdbandt: no gain or lost of plot this game

piete: losing can still happen round 12

piete: ive lost

piete: and on c64 my rival gained so he won by a small margin

piete: never forget

piete: ;)

maskdbandt: i didn't think there were events

piete: player events yes

piete: no global

maskdbandt: crap, forgot a plot!

piete: you didnt have more time

maskdbandt: was pointless to spend 200+ for food from piete if i wasn't going to do anything with it

maskdbandt: i would've waited and done the right side isntead of left

piete: pirates?

maskdbandt: or that

cyounghusband: shit

piete: that sucked

cyounghusband: will make piete very hard to catch

cyounghusband: impossible probably

maskdbandt: yeah

maskdbandt: but i think he outproduced anyway

maskdbandt: i messed up way too much this game... can't do that when playing with you guys! :)

cyounghusband: yeah, that's mental note is what made me add the impossible addition!

piete: cys producing more but maybe no enough rounds

C64 nostalgia: this is where i definitively lose

maskdbandt: this is where is hould've made everything food instead

maskdbandt: most i've paid for food before is 1k

cyounghusband: ?

maskdbandt: nice c64!

cyounghusband: he must know something I don't

piete: c64, that money alone wouldve taken you 2 spots above

C64 nostalgia: not at the end

maskdbandt: nope

C64 nostalgia: and nope

maskdbandt: wow, close

piete: cys gonna win

Round 12 of 12

maskdbandt: you don't have all your plots filled even

piete: yeah

piete: thats why id paid for food

maskdbandt: what did i say earlier? cy would win! :)

piete: planetquake took my victory

cyounghusband: oh, it moved a mountain? I didn't notice

piete: i did notice ;)

cyounghusband: now I understand the hunger

maskdbandt: i never even knew it moved mountains until a couple games ago

piete: round 11 1st place is a killer if you dont have a good margin

maskdbandt: well great game all!

piete: yeah, very exciting game

cyounghusband: yup

piete: depending on crys price i may end up 3 or 4

cyounghusband: go crystite

maskdbandt: let's hope for 148!

piete: i go for 48 ;)

piete: :(

maskdbandt: i produced the most

maskdbandt: too late though

piete: down

C64 nostalgia: gg, but i need to work on my timing

piete: me too, when its good to be no1...

piete: only round 12 :)

cyounghusband: when you bought out the smithore you vaulted, that part you did very right. I was annoyed with myself for not beating you to it

maskdbandt: that not max food at round 9 and 10 killed my very slim chance :)

piete: down

piete: speed up

C64 nostalgia: how much was food just then/

C64 nostalgia: ?
