Drilan unjoined the game
maskdbandt: think we can get enough this game?
Drilan: how so?
maskdbandt: why'd you unjoin? want to be a specific color?
maskdbandt: well not many people in lobby
maskdbandt: and i know mega byte won't play
maskdbandt: because he's not hosting
maskdbandt: so if he leaves, it's a loss
Drilan joined the game in slot 1
maskdbandt: i don't care what color i am so if you prefer a diff color, fine by me
Drilan: orange is fine for me
maskdbandt: alrighty
maskdbandt joined the game in slot 2
maskdbandt: i haven't played since that last game we played... took a couple days off
Drilan: k
Drilan: I was playing piete and cyoung the other day
maskdbandt: awesome, sounds like a good game
maskdbandt: how'd it go?
Drilan: and I was winning on round 6 by 4K and got disconnected
maskdbandt: cyoung beat me last time i played
maskdbandt: ugh!
maskdbandt: that sucks :(
maskdbandt: too bad oyu can't fix your connection issue
Drilan: yes I have
maskdbandt: oh you have?
Spasticus Autisticus visits
Drilan: now LOL
maskdbandt: who last their connection in round 6 then?
maskdbandt: heh
maskdbandt: spasticus, welcome
Spasticus Autisticus joined the game in slot 3
Drilan: me but now Im good to go
maskdbandt: cool
maskdbandt: ok to wait for 1 more?
Drilan: it could be an exciting game that game with piete
maskdbandt: maybe mulefan
maskdbandt: someone just poppedin lobby
Drilan: cause the game ended piete winning just by 40
maskdbandt: yeah , a 4k lead helps but still a lot can happen
maskdbandt: oh wow! :)
maskdbandt: that's crazy
Drilan: no, I ended last
maskdbandt: yeah i assumed since you weren't in the game and AI was playing for you
Drilan: AI didnt go good for me
maskdbandt: that's what i think is funny that some people think AI playing for them is good (regarding the forum posts)
Drilan: noooooooo
Drilan: AI is dumb
Drilan: always sells
Drilan: piete ended winning by 40 total against cyoung
maskdbandt: hmm... we could be waiting awhile
maskdbandt: i guess he got his rematch
maskdbandt: cyoung beat both piete and i when we played that one time
Spasticus Autisticus: start?
maskdbandt: if you guys are both ok with AI playing
Spasticus Autisticus: yes
Drilan: no
Drilan: why megabyte dont want to play?
mulefan visits
maskdbandt: i don't know if he's seeing the messages or not
maskdbandt: mulefan wants to watch
maskdbandt: not play
Drilan: ok
mulefan: I'm looking now. Can you still play?
maskdbandt: ok sorry spasticus, i never start the game unless everyone in wants to do AI... i think 1 more person should come around within a couple minutes
Drilan: if you are a mule fan you should play
maskdbandt: yeah, but we're waiting for a 4th person, mulefan
maskdbandt: lol, drilan
Drilan: mask can I tell you something??/
maskdbandt: sure
Drilan: please , if you have priority on the transaction line , please let me have some cause it would be an easy game for you
maskdbandt: hmm... that's a tough one but i'll agree to that if you agree to do the same for me... i'm used to people screwing me over like that so that's how i learned to do it
Spasticus Autisticus: why isn't mulefan joining?
maskdbandt: mulefan said they had to eat dinner... you can't eat while playing, mulefan? :)
maskdbandt: you know you're itching to play!
mulefan: Idon't have 60-90 mins available before I got to go make dinner. If we can play it in under 30 mins, I'm in.
maskdbandt: oh that's ashame
Drilan: cause of the lag, youll always see your player just a step ahead of mines, but actually in my PC I see mine a step ahead of yours so in reality we're even
maskdbandt: i appreciate you letting us know... sucks when people leave and AI takes over
ka visits
maskdbandt: ok drilan, i'll try to be nicer
maskdbandt: and hopefully if the situation is reversed, you can too :)
maskdbandt: i won't try to play as cuttthroat
Spasticus Autisticus: join the game ka!
maskdbandt: ka, join in
maskdbandt: we're itching to start
ka joined the game in slot 4
maskdbandt: gl all
Drilan: when you see me starting hosting fgames youll see that Im never unfair
maskdbandt: mulefan, can you hit space too?
maskdbandt: but the host thing isn't wha t matters, it's because i'm 2nd compared to 1st
Round 1 of 12
maskdbandt: i can get to buy or sell lines first while hosting or not and if i'm in 1st, awards the goods to someone else
maskdbandt: nice pick!
Drilan: Im happy
Drilan: tks
Drilan: ?????
Drilan: jegfwiuf
Drilan: wwhg
maskdbandt: drilan, i thought you just said you weren't going to do that?
Drilan: gbgwrj
maskdbandt: you just bought out instead of saving for ka and i
Drilan: I though I was blue LOL
maskdbandt: lol
mulefan: can you collude in this version?
Drilan: was gonna curse you
maskdbandt: i hope not
Drilan: oh man
maskdbandt: but yeah i guess if people say something in chat, might affect other people's decisions
Round 2 of 12
maskdbandt: drilan, i hope you enjoy the food heh
Drilan: LOL
maskdbandt: mulefan, sort of like if you played on orig version, you could talk with the others and get them to do what's in your best interest
maskdbandt: but i guess it's allowed to play on same IP addr multiple computers, but it says that on here so you would know about it
maskdbandt: i palyed that once expecting a bunch of collusion but they were honest
maskdbandt: i don't need it since i have no $ so just wanted to pay 23 :)
Round 3 of 12
maskdbandt: man!
Drilan: LOL
maskdbandt: all beacuse you bought out the food to become 4th :)
Drilan: am I blind??
maskdbandt: yes, he was in the mountain i went to 1st , hoping he was still there :)
Drilan: 2nd time only that I received a plot
maskdbandt: i saw him during your turn
maskdbandt: really? crazy
maskdbandt: i used to get them all the time but not in recent weeks
maskdbandt: i'm going to have to sell ore this round... so if someone else wants to buy, so be it
Spasticus Autisticus: i don't really understand this game...
maskdbandt: you seem to understand the way it works?
maskdbandt: did you used to play original at all?
Spasticus Autisticus: no
Drilan: I hope Im not in first
maskdbandt: drilan, i was going to save you the other 2
maskdbandt: so you won't think i'm trying to play mean to everyone
Drilan: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
maskdbandt: and you are first
Round 4 of 12
Drilan: nice
maskdbandt: gold mine down there!
maskdbandt: ugh
Drilan: you needed that
Drilan: you have too much energy LOL
maskdbandt: yeah, unfortunately didn't realize i was 6 short for ore! :(
mulefan: Ok. I'll leave you now. It was nice watching. Good luck everyone.
maskdbandt: or i would've wampus hunted first
maskdbandt: have a good one mulefan!
mulefan left the game
Drilan: bye
Drilan: nice
maskdbandt: no
maskdbandt: not nice because i didn't do ore!
maskdbandt: 250
maskdbandt: or 218 :)
Drilan: I do good for you
Round 5 of 12
Drilan: nice
Spasticus Autisticus: do you have to sell food and energy because they spoil?
maskdbandt: food spoils at 50%
maskdbandt: energy spoils at 25%
maskdbandt: so if you have 4 energy extra, 1 will spoil
maskdbandt: sometimes it's better to let it spoil than sell cheap to someon eelse though :)
maskdbandt: ore and crystite spoil 100% over 50
Spasticus Autisticus: keep it below 50 then?
maskdbandt: i meant 50 in quantity
Spasticus Autisticus: i know
maskdbandt: but yes it's almost not ever a good idea to keep ore and cry over 50
maskdbandt: unless you are trying to drive up the price
maskdbandt: by not selling to store or opponent
Spasticus Autisticus: that would only be if you have a monopoly though?
maskdbandt: that's a tough one... crystite usually sell over a 100 and keep and/or buy under 100
maskdbandt: ore, sell if someone is producing more than you and they are ahead of you but if behind you, sometimes not
maskdbandt: it's a tough decision whether or not to sell ore if the price is high and it depend on your relative production to other people
maskdbandt: maybe drilan can help answer for you
Spasticus Autisticus: i haven't really learnt what is high and low
maskdbandt: forinstance now, i will not sell
Spasticus Autisticus: why
maskdbandt: in ka's shoes, i might have because i had no $
maskdbandt: because next time, i'm hoping fora higher price and id on't need the $ right now
Drilan: answer what???
maskdbandt: when you should sell ore
Spasticus Autisticus: okay, thanks
maskdbandt: spasticus was asking... perhaps drilan can give his take on it
Drilan: it depends how much ore you have or how many ore plots you have
maskdbandt: in your shoes, spasticus you might've considered buying ore but only if you didn't think there was going to be a land auction? based on all of us having low money
maskdbandt: ore ranges from 36-230 in price
maskdbandt: don't ever sell energy at 10 unless you want to help others :)
Drilan: nooooooooooooo
maskdbandt: so gneerally unless there is energy shortage, no reason to keep it
maskdbandt: drilan, i'm trying to help others learn! :)
maskdbandt: it sucks for us
Drilan: np
Round 6 of 12
maskdbandt: i agree
Drilan: ok take it
maskdbandt: wait that's a big price
Drilan: lol
Drilan: sorry
maskdbandt: no cheap land
maskdbandt: i guess we've all been paying a lot :)
Drilan: but is worth it
maskdbandt: yeah anything under 2k i think
maskdbandt: at this time of game
Drilan: fk
maskdbandt: so now only 1 unlacimed mountain for wampus
maskdbandt: so easy to get $200 if you need it
Drilan: uffffff
Drilan: check some of mines
maskdbandt: i really hit nothing this game!
Drilan: ???
maskdbandt: i should just start going by other people's intead of where i pick :)
maskdbandt: i have no crystite in areas i started picking... i took one by you and ka
Drilan: yep
Drilan: yewsssssssssssssssssssssssssss
maskdbandt: i didn't trust you drilan :)
Drilan: LOL
maskdbandt: to be on buy line when you are on sell
maskdbandt: pirates can still come too
maskdbandt: spasticus
Drilan: you need money for mules
maskdbandt: they can come twice a game
maskdbandt: they've came only once already so that's the risk you take
Drilan: ????
maskdbandt: yeah money for mules is always a good idea
maskdbandt: no land auctions please!
Drilan: LOL
Drilan: yesssssssss
Drilan: please
Round 7 of 12
Drilan: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
maskdbandt: whoa, you lost the one you gained earlier
Drilan: ??/
maskdbandt: crap!
Drilan: ouch
maskdbandt: i had a good ore prod though :)
Drilan: you F me there
maskdbandt: 2 plots had 7
Drilan: nice
Round 8 of 12
Drilan: you let you have it cheap
Drilan: cant
maskdbandt: yeah you can
maskdbandt: who dares go for last spot?! !? HIGH :)
Drilan: yesss
maskdbandt: wow, barely
Drilan: ?????????
maskdbandt: nooooooooo
Drilan: energy is not profitable
Drilan: let that rock there
Drilan: that rock landed perfectly
maskdbandt: food is not profitable :)
maskdbandt: why you buying, drilan?
Drilan: dont know
maskdbandt: thanks man, man of your word
Drilan: happy?
maskdbandt: yeah that worked out
Round 9 of 12
maskdbandt: and you all let me have the high
Drilan: its that high really??
Drilan: I thought you were joking
maskdbandt: yeah, i was going to do the one you were
maskdbandt: i assayed it last round
maskdbandt: and wondered who would fight for it... i wasn't going to but then since all 3 of you picked others, i figured why not :)
Spasticus Autisticus: so you make money on ore and crystals?
maskdbandt: so now we have a no crystite and a medium left
maskdbandt: yeah
maskdbandt: only food and energy if shortages
maskdbandt: but it's always best to provide your own energy and food and not for others (unless there is a shortage)
Drilan: bad timing
maskdbandt: because of end of game
maskdbandt: and no more plots empty?
Drilan: yep
maskdbandt: better now in this part of game to have all crystite unless you want to be on low price on crystite
Round 10 of 12
Drilan: nice for you
maskdbandt: how'd drilan and i get the spots left?
maskdbandt: i have a low in corner up there? i did't think there was crystite in upper left
Drilan: I will risk it
maskdbandt: yeah you have to i think
maskdbandt: you both are so kind to me to let me buy :)
maskdbandt: thanks!
Round 11 of 12
Drilan: yw
Drilan: ???
Drilan: backwards on 11th?
maskdbandt: less than 7 mules
maskdbandt: it's weird though!
maskdbandt: we never sold ore
Drilan: nop
maskdbandt: you can let them all loose but i don't think that will help price in this stage of game
Drilan: no
Drilan: they cahnge that
Drilan: change
maskdbandt: they did?
Drilan: hope it gets to 140 or more
maskdbandt: nice, i didn't realize it did that

Drilan: noooooooooooooooooooooo
maskdbandt: lol that was fun
Drilan: not for me
maskdbandt: better than spoilage
Drilan: that price fk me up
maskdbandt: a nd the quake
Drilan: the quake was the most
Round 12 of 12
maskdbandt: i had crappy prod so you would've gained a lot on me with no quake and good price
Drilan: yep
Drilan: nice
maskdbandt: those mountains are always a pain to get thru
Drilan: nice game mask
Drilan: you took the advantage on that ore round
maskdbandt: thanks
maskdbandt: i did?

maskdbandt: oh you mean because i had a good prod with high price?
Drilan: you had 25 more ore on the $217
maskdbandt: yeah, that was prob game there
Drilan: yep
maskdbandt: and you may have caught up had it not been for quake and low price last round
maskdbandt: close game as always
Drilan: and I lost a med ploton middle
