Round 1 of 12
maskdbandt: you all are reliable!
maskdbandt: played you all before if i'm not mistaken
maskdbandt: obviously 2 of you couple minutes ago :)
poobslag: yea i was in a game with hudson earlier today, i kept driving the price of smithore down so that he wouldn't overtake me, it was a weiner thing to do
maskdbandt: i gained about 10% today on my abandoned % because we kept trying to start a top 10 game and finally figured out drilan was the prob... so we kept changing hosts and restarting like 10 times
maskdbandt: that makes sense. do what you gotta do!
hudson: haha
hudson: that's ok owned a couple of newbies after that :)
maskdbandt: i find it amusing i mischanged to food instead of energy and sold my crystite thinking i didn't have a hcnace in hell of winning
poobslag: yea but you were only like 2k off or something?
maskdbandt: end of round 11 i was only 1k behind kipley
poobslag: yeah i have trouble understanding the prices
poobslag: mostly i thought it was based on supply/demand, like if someone has 100 smithore i thought it would drive down the price?
poobslag: but guess not
hudson: no that's energy
maskdbandt: so if i hadn't sold the crystite and done energy instead, i would've won... but basically any of the 4 of us could've won that game
hudson: smithore depends only on what's in store and the pen
poobslag: so only energy/food work that way ok
maskdbandt: tat's good to know though, i had no idea how that worked
hudson: yay last!
Round 2 of 12
maskdbandt: you think your plot is high, hudson?
hudson: don't know
hudson: I ws shooting for the one you took :)
maskdbandt: so was poob
poobslag: yeah,
maskdbandt: he did that to me last game and i ended up with one i totally didn't want
poobslag: yeah i was holding the button to try and get the jump - but i think there's a bug that makes it jump to the next plot really really fast sometimes
maskdbandt: so what do you think guys? should we sell food to poob?
poobslag: yea you will if you want my energy fools!
maskdbandt: yeah that's what happened to me last time too i think
maskdbandt: lol true
hudson: I'll trade food for energy!
poobslag: ok hit the "collude" buttons at the same time, ready
poobslag: can't buy food without money
zander: why didn't they make a collude option?
poobslag: yay go colony! *colony five*
hudson: doesn't work well over the net
maskdbandt: i think i'll be last
maskdbandt: 155
hudson: damn
zander: they would certainly have to rework it
maskdbandt: wth? how am i in 1st?
poobslag: 1535 in assets?
hudson: I'm glad I'm not
poobslag: i guess energy went up
Round 3 of 12
maskdbandt: oh so it calculates before next round... id idn't know that
poobslag: yeah i read up on it, there's two calculations - once before the auction phase, once after
hudson: damn thing moves fast
poobslag: you want it zander?
maskdbandt: only zander can buy
poobslag: yeah
maskdbandt: that sucks :)
maskdbandt: i need more land
zander: can always use land
hudson: wampus don't fail me now
zander: thanks buddy!
poobslag: huh did i stumble onto the high crystite plot first turn?
hudson: I am fucked
maskdbandt: you have to sell ore this round
maskdbandt: this is first game in a long time where more plots on right have been claimed than left
maskdbandt: poob you are set as long as someone sells you food
maskdbandt: i won't be though :)
poobslag: sell me food!
poobslag: cmon i'm selling you smithore
poobslag: it's a fair trade
maskdbandt: lol
maskdbandt: it didn't have anything anyway
poobslag: feed me! feed me food!
maskdbandt: i'm not going to sell
maskdbandt: hudson is a nice guy :)
poobslag: hudson is $600 richer than you
hudson: hudson needs energy :)
maskdbandt: heh
maskdbandt: you gotta be kidding me
Round 4 of 12
hudson: you guys keep taking my plots
maskdbandt: see poob, no auctions since i was only one with money :)
maskdbandt: i think we talked about that last game
poobslag: yeah you're right!
poobslag: that could have been terrible for us
hudson: argh
maskdbandt: i have the high in 1 of mine
maskdbandt: thx poob
poobslag: yeah you do
poobslag: i lost my touch
poobslag: my crystite bestowing touch
maskdbandt: oh that's right! heh
maskdbandt: i'm waiting for my pest
maskdbandt: man i got the sh$t end of the stick there :)
poobslag: heh i don't know i kinda screwed myself in the process
maskdbandt: you guys are poor, try not to get money ok ? :)
zander: k
maskdbandt: whoa. food!
poobslag: i know?
maskdbandt: how much?
poobslag: how about $61
hudson: $1
maskdbandt: no takers? :)
poobslag: final offer
zander: nothing
maskdbandt: lol
hudson: we'll just sit in base
maskdbandt: and increase ore cost
poobslag: oh cmon hudson don't even
Round 5 of 12
poobslag: mask, your rule!
poobslag: you broke your rule
maskdbandt: overpriced but still a steal :)
maskdbandt: yep what was i thinking
maskdbandt: now the pests can come eat one of them
poobslag: you missed your $200 wampus
maskdbandt: ah crap
maskdbandt: i totally forgot!
poobslag: i forgot first turn
maskdbandt: that's the prob with going first and your mind is on fooooooooood
poobslag: food? food to eat???
zander: nice
maskdbandt: nice package
hudson: great now it's gonna be oversupply :)
maskdbandt: yep and making my $ and running :)
poobslag: ha! one food
maskdbandt: wow, no energy on one of mine! :(
poobslag: wow that's even worse
maskdbandt: i want to sell to store!
poobslag: sell to us! we'll give it to the store
poobslag: promise
poobslag: cmon i just paid $124 for a moldy burrito
maskdbandt: there we go
maskdbandt: 4th place :)
poobslag: guess smithore went up
Round 6 of 12
maskdbandt: i prob should've let the mules loose for you all :)
poobslag: heh it's ok there won't be any left for me,
hudson: oh shit
poobslag: that's what's important ;)
maskdbandt: you have 34 ore though! plus more to come
maskdbandt: no food? :)
poobslag: you guys give me food
poobslag: because you're always so nice
poobslag: :D
maskdbandt: gees you are so far ahead
zander: payday
maskdbandt: for poob
zander: yeah
poobslag: woo hoo
poobslag: wait crystite can go below $50?
poobslag: i thought it was $50-$150
maskdbandt: 48 to 148
poobslag: geez i thought food would drop
zander: nice
poobslag: mask i need that food!
hudson: I knew mask would go for it :)
poobslag: you're just going to let it spoil
maskdbandt: iwish it had've
maskdbandt: sorry poob, you made a lot on the ore
Round 7 of 12
maskdbandt: you're 6k ahead of me :)
poobslag: lol
poobslag: most pointless transaction ever
zander: lol
poobslag: now sell me food!!!
zander: it was symbolic ;)
poobslag: yaaay
maskdbandt: i couldn't do that to you twice in a row :-/
poobslag: thanks
zander: should have
poobslag: i would have gone higher
maskdbandt: i wanted to sell my excess
poobslag: mhm
Round 8 of 12
zander: we're screwed now. poobslab has food.
poobslag: lol
maskdbandt: i was screwed anyway
maskdbandt: not sure what my deal is
maskdbandt: i haen't ever lost 2 in a row and now i'm about to lose 3 in a row :)
hudson: aw cmon
poobslag: lost like 2nd place or lost like 4th place?
maskdbandt: but still having fun... that's what counts... nice to play with good player
maskdbandt: s
maskdbandt: lost like anything but 1st
poobslag: wow
hudson: good players? where?
maskdbandt: lol :)
zander: could be a problem
hudson: wow
zander: ;)
maskdbandt: someone has a high in the upper right!
hudson: impressive
hudson: struck out 3 out of 3
maskdbandt: yeah am i playing differently or is everyone else getting better? :)
hudson: I obviously aren't
maskdbandt: how have you been doing lately?
hudson: it really depends all on crystite
hudson: I hit good spots, I win
maskdbandt: not the last game the rest of us played
maskdbandt: was nice for a change
zander: money bags
maskdbandt: up to you zander... please don't sell :)
zander: u could have afforded higher
maskdbandt: lol
poobslag: yeah but i can't do much with it
poobslag: i can build more food plots that produce zero food :)
poobslag: or build another energy plot that doesn't produce energy
zander: oh brother
poobslag: it was a rough turn
maskdbandt: not much else i can do from this far behind ;)
Round 9 of 12
maskdbandt: this should be interesting
maskdbandt: with 12k?
maskdbandt: don't get stuck with it
hudson: zander that was dangerous :)
maskdbandt: we all get one if we don't buy it
hudson: dude that's world's worst plot
maskdbandt: it's fun to try to see if you get screwed or not
hudson: no need to run it up
zander: i hit the wrong key.
hudson: ??????????????
poobslag: hmm?
poobslag: something weird happened
maskdbandt: i bought for 1980
maskdbandt: that's weird?
poobslag: oh okay
zander: when it rains...
hudson: you know it has no crystite
poobslag: on my screen it didn't show a price
maskdbandt: pj
maskdbandt: oh
maskdbandt: it's more to screw whoever is in first after this round
poobslag: won't be me
hudson: wow I have an open plot, wonderful
poobslag: but i guess you know it won't be you
maskdbandt: it could be i guess hypothetically but very unlikely
hudson: where are the pirates anyway?
zander: haven't seen them for 3 games
maskdbandt: this round
maskdbandt: is there no cry on the left of the screen???? :)
poobslag: no random event?
maskdbandt: not sure, i tend to miss those
hudson: man we are gonna get screwed
maskdbandt: pirates next turn??
zander: i serious haven't seen them for 3 games
zander: i'm sure there out there, but....
zander: never know
hudson: I need every dolla I can get :)
zander: $$$
maskdbandt: wow, selling? :)
zander: no way
hudson: 224 not good enough for taco
poobslag: heh heh
zander: that's right
maskdbandt: cuttthroat game we have here
maskdbandt: who wants some power?
maskdbandt: 250 each
poobslag: it's not worth much
zander: no way
poobslag: all i got is smithore plots
zander: 600+
poobslag: wow still in first?
maskdbandt: man
Round 10 of 12
hudson: grr
maskdbandt: what happened? i thought 1st would be out of it
poobslag: yea me too
zander: sorry poob.
maskdbandt: i may sell energy next round
poobslag: yeah been a boring four turns
zander: i guess you shouldn't be so good in the beginning
maskdbandt: what' s funny is poob will prob still win anyway
poobslag: yeah i don't know i thought i hedged my bets with a food and energy plot,
hudson: it's because I'm sucking so much
maskdbandt: because i'm not gaining anything if i don't sell!
poobslag: but the energy plot got destroyed, and now i can't produce food
poobslag: so it didn't work
maskdbandt: f*ck , i messed that up
maskdbandt: woohoo
hudson: I KNEW IT!
zander: nooooooooooooo!
maskdbandt: that sucks
zander: poob you're still in it
maskdbandt: glad i sold last round
zander: what did I do? :/
zander: f'n pirates!
hudson: dammit sell
maskdbandt: 500 each
zander: 5000
maskdbandt: we'll have a crappy colony though
poobslag: mhm
maskdbandt: 500 each
hudson: very
hudson: I think if we don't hit 60K it doesn't count
zander: no necessarily
maskdbandt: not enough
poobslag: you haven't looked at my plots if you think i can go above $150
maskdbandt: poob, i can't catch up at those prices
poobslag: yeah but look at what i'm powering, it's like, a single smithore square
hudson: oh we are at 74
poobslag: each plot i power gets me about $70
Round 11 of 12
maskdbandt: we're already pretty high at 74 i guess
maskdbandt: with 2 developments left
maskdbandt: i can't get out of last though
poobslag: yeah i'm baffled i'm still in first
maskdbandt: you had a 6k lead but now it's not much
zander: u were kicking ass
zander: that's why
maskdbandt: sorry, but had to do what we had to do to make it even
poobslag: yea i don't mind losing or anything
poobslag: it's just boring watching people play for 45 minutes while i basically have nothing to do
hudson: man I messed up
zander: at least u have food
maskdbandt: i have no extra food this time
maskdbandt: no prod of ore...that's odd
maskdbandt: zander you should've either kept it all or sold it all
maskdbandt: heh :P
zander: just trying to stay even with u
zander: food?
hudson: hell I ain't payin that
poobslag: not worth it
maskdbandt: no one is willing to pay market price
maskdbandt: 150 each
poobslag: smithore's not expensive
poobslag: maybe i'll at least produce a little food
Round 12 of 12
maskdbandt: i should've had food that round... i messed up.... arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
hudson: hm that made no sense, why did I sway top row with energy
hudson: lol
hudson: too tired
zander: it's too many g in a row man
maskdbandt: i can only hope food is still pricey
poobslag: shouldn't have bought energy
maskdbandt: if not, i'm screweeeeeeeeeeeeeeed
hudson: hah I produced no food
poobslag: food plot produced zero food again
poobslag: yeah 14 x $52, buying energy was a bad choice
poobslag: well very close anyway
poobslag: wow!
maskdbandt: it's more of a recovery type purchase
zander: we all still learn with these gs
maskdbandt: zander wins right?
hudson: yeah easy
maskdbandt: ugh
zander: i believe yes
poobslag: mhm
maskdbandt: i knew i couldn't out produce you with your good plots
zander: food crashed
maskdbandt: i didn't even produce much anyway heh :)
maskdbandt: crapper
maskdbandt: energy would've been a good choice, i'm surprised
maskdbandt: i always get it backwards
maskdbandt: last game it was food, not energy
poobslag: heh yeah
hudson: problem is you gotta be aware of who is producing what
maskdbandt: i need to figure out how the pricing works... that's scrwed me twice in a row
