Dalmar: wow, barey
Dalmar: barely*
poobslag: yeah didn't think i had it
Dalmar: Are there racial traits?
Dalmar: I forget.
poobslag: nah
Dalmar: host gets the definite advantage. ;)
poobslag: nah, they give you the pause at the auction start,
poobslag: so that you can both hold up at the same time, and timing shouldn't be an issue
Round 6 of 12
Dalmar: lucky umi
Dalmar: I just got boned by the computer, lol...
umikami: yep
poobslag: whoa!
poobslag: that's annoying in the bottom right
Dalmar: It's a risk
poobslag: huge risk to anybody who tries for it yeah
Dalmar: Land or no land is the question.
Dalmar: wtf
logansmellsgood: I got confused
Dalmar: YOu were confusing me, lol.
Dalmar: Wow, they really don't like who ever is in first.
Dalmar: Lose a plot of land, then yank my energy.
logansmellsgood: Instead of blaming others you should record when you buy land :P
poobslag: yeah, that way you have the paperwork
Dalmar: lol, how do I record?
Dalmar: :P
Round 7 of 12
poobslag: play it safe

Dalmar: lol
Dalmar: ...
poobslag: sorry dalmar
Dalmar: ROFL
poobslag: host advantage, you know, i pick all the events
Dalmar: I know.
Dalmar: How do your low cyrstite sites beat my medium sites?
poobslag: how many crystite sites you got? i have 6
poobslag: and they're almost all adjacent
Dalmar: True
logansmellsgood: cold
Round 9 of 12
poobslag: tsk stupid inlaws
Dalmar: Those sluts.
umikami: i think orange wins no matter what though
umikami: doesn't matter
Dalmar: Easily, most land.
poobslag: yeah i was surprised you guys weren't contesting the land as much
umikami: it was blue really
umikami: he had the cash
umikami: but just watch you
poobslag: mhm
poobslag: you fought with me in the first land auction, umi, and you let me have it - but you got a plot after that, so it was a good play
umikami: green and blue were pretty clueless this game
umikami: but it's okay
umikami: it's all in fun
Dalmar: My first tourny. :P
umikami: read the rules
umikami: before playing
umikami: you'll have more fun
Dalmar: nah, did training
poobslag: heh, not everything's in the rules
Dalmar: I'm having plenty of fun. :D
umikami: he just tried to mine the river....
umikami: i guess reading takes 10 minutes...
umikami: too much time?
poobslag: heh tsk cmon
Dalmar: Exactly.
poobslag: mining the river is a weird rule which doesn't come up so much, my friend actually tried to mine it on tuesday, was his first game in awhile
Dalmar: rofl
umikami: so if you want to win
umikami: don't sell
Dalmar: $1000/each
poobslag: he didn't sell last time either, but i'm not going as high this time
poobslag: not worth it
umikami: do you kow what energy does?
umikami: i think you still win anyway
poobslag: plots are full, i don't really need food so bad
poobslag: it would be nice to switch heavier to crystite but it's not a big deal
umikami: yep
Round 10 of 12
poobslag: i'm confused by the arrangement of crystite plots again, are there four high-crystite plots this game?
umikami: have to check the rules
umikami: i think that might be right though
poobslag: i thought there were supposed to be three, but i guess it's four
umikami: i got good plots
umikami: but you have a good group
umikami: so you come out far ahead
poobslag: mhm adjacency bonus is very valuable
umikami: that 3rd column
poobslag: ouch! my mules!
umikami: is just owning
poobslag: planetquake killed two of my mules
logansmellsgood: you're as cold as ice
poobslag: heh, not worth it either
Dalmar: Absolute zero.
poobslag: the store price is staying low as a result, *and* you're not getting money
umikami: definately don't sell
poobslag: you at least want to sell one unit to influence the price
umikami: you got 1 more plot
umikami: nothing i can do
Round 11 of 12
poobslag: convince dalmar to sell you a plot
umikami: so cheating
umikami: would be if he sold his high tite polots
umikami: plots for cheap
umikami: hehe
umikami: i've only seen cheaters once
umikami: it was not fun at all
poobslag: hey i get to buy the plots too
umikami: boring game
poobslag: yeah i've read about them on the forum
umikami: never play with winter
poobslag: play to round 12, then sell goods to eachother at inflated prices so one of them gets a very high score
umikami: or a guy named tedrick
umikami: yep
umikami: basically they give each othe rmoney
umikami: it's just a game
umikami: i don't think many children play this though
umikami: a lot of old c64 players
umikami: are on
poobslag: mhm
umikami: that extra plot you got
umikami: that's the winner
umikami: and they were adjacent
umikami: you got good auctions
poobslag: yeah, but these random events are hurting too,
poobslag: my lead isn't really increasing
umikami: losgint that mule hurts a lot
poobslag: it's far away too
poobslag: dalmar; the store's price stays at $10 if you never sell
poobslag: i hope it's not "host advantage" that's making me beat you to the line on these auctions
poobslag: if so that's stupid
umikami: don't worry ou win anyway
Round 12 of 12
poobslag: are you on AIM or something umikami? we can play a game after this with a different host and rematch
umikami: i need to go to sleep
umikami: i'm sick
poobslag: oh i see okay
poobslag: feel better
umikami: i'm eating some soup no
umikami: now
umikami: then i sleep
umikami: now
umikami: just remembe rmy name
umikami: theres a guy named dandydan
umikami: who is really pro
umikami: never beaten him
umikami: top players can predict prices
umikami: i can't do that
poobslag: me either
umikami: you tite production on 2nd and 3rd column is so high
poobslag: dalmar you just lost $15 :)
Dalmar: `Win
umikami: wow low price of tite
poobslag: pretty average eh?
poobslag: if you sell 1 unit in round 12 does the price jump?
umikami: i could sell....
umikami: but it's kind of like cheating
poobslag: i read that it used to do that on atari
Game Over
Saving score, please wait...
Score saved
umikami: wow
poobslag: hey! you took the lead!
umikami: i win?????
umikami: 200 points
poobslag: i wonder where that came from. better crystite production on the last turn?
umikami: i think that crazy mule
umikami: the one that ran away
umikami: that cost you
poobslag: maybe? yeah random events like that hurt,
umikami: you had to buy a new one
umikami: and outfit it
umikami: that cost you 200
poobslag: mhm, that was like $200 right,
umikami: that was the difference
umikami: hehe
poobslag: but still, i'm surprised! good game
Dalmar: gg
umikami: i call it luck
umikami: i got really lucky
umikami: good game
umikami: play again another time
poobslag: hope to play you again yeah
poobslag: bye bye!
