Round 8 of 12
maskdbandt: heh
Edbox14: HEH
maskdbandt: too button crazy at times :)
egrutt: you'd think if pirates came to an undefended colony they would take everything, not just crystals
maskdbandt: maybe they aren't hungry :)
Jmac8674: its not resellable
egrutt: hee haw
Jmac8674: probably
maskdbandt: crap!
Edbox14: Mother Russia tells me that is GG
egrutt: for who?
maskdbandt: i hear that i lose now :)
egrutt: mask u play with c64 alot?
egrutt: the player not the machine
maskdbandt: i've played a few times
maskdbandt: why?
maskdbandt: yeah i knew what you meant :)
egrutt: i like playing with him we have a good time
Round 9 of 12
maskdbandt: yeah, good games with him
maskdbandt: but i feel i beat him more often than other way around
maskdbandt: jmac, why did you not select the plot???
maskdbandt: how about you? who normally wins?
Jmac8674: multitasking
egrutt: probably wanted a closer one
Jmac8674: wasnt paying attention
egrutt: he was but i pplayed him alot when i was ranked 1000-600 lol
maskdbandt: ah cool
maskdbandt: i haven't played with him for about a week now though
maskdbandt: this will be first game i've lost in awhile
maskdbandt: i saw you moving up the ranks
maskdbandt: i try to see who is moving on up heh
egrutt: 1st game i played against you ;) lol
maskdbandt: yeppers
maskdbandt: drilan i've played with a lot lately but i seem to win against him
maskdbandt: so i took his 5th away and gave him 6th
egrutt: still cant figure how ranking works...
egrutt: nooooo
maskdbandt: ranking is sort of pointless
maskdbandt: just based on # of games you win
Jmac8674: no its not
Jmac8674: its number of wins first i think
maskdbandt: if tied than other things come into play
egrutt: so not percentage of games won just straight wins
maskdbandt: up in the top 10, it's sort of more based on # of games because not many people are tied with you
maskdbandt: yep
egrutt: uh oh....
maskdbandt: but you're right jmac, it has other criteria
Jmac8674: i was looking at it before we played lol
egrutt: lol
egrutt: space parents save me!
maskdbandt: not in 1st
maskdbandt: it won't
egrutt: but they love me cause i am a winner lol
Round 10 of 12
maskdbandt: ugh, now you pick it :)
Jmac8674: was paying attention
maskdbandt: egrutt, might have a shot at that pkg now since ed is in 1st
Edbox14: I will be shot for not finiding crystals for the great mother land
egrutt: if mask gets good cryst prices he's got game me thinks
Jmac8674: whats the strat for selling stuff last turn
Jmac8674: keep it or sell it?
maskdbandt: just don't do anything
maskdbandt: it's valued at store price
egrutt: pirates i got money for u come save me
maskdbandt: pirates came first two rounds... they're not interested anymore
maskdbandt: round 12 auction is pointless
egrutt: ok meteor i got empty plots for you...
maskdbandt: because the only thing that can happen is someone messes with the game
maskdbandt: come on 148 crystite price
Edbox14: damn two bad things in one turn
maskdbandt: in 1st, what do you expect? :)
maskdbandt: jmac, you should sell ore
maskdbandt: not going ot be as much anymore
maskdbandt: 200
Jmac8674: did i miss that?
Jmac8674: 200 for ore?
maskdbandt: no
maskdbandt: 200 for food
maskdbandt: ore was 93
Jmac8674: oh
Round 11 of 12
egrutt: cuttin in on my food masked?
maskdbandt: i raised the price
maskdbandt: so it should've been just me :P
egrutt: sigh
maskdbandt: should've just kept it crystite prob
egrutt: wasnt cryst in first place was ore
Round 12 of 12
maskdbandt: perhaps i was wrong
maskdbandt: i didn't think i could catch up with you and ed's lead
egrutt: well u got 3 turns of over 120 crystal so was nice for u
maskdbandt: yeah that was quite lucky
Jmac8674: 1 more would be nice
maskdbandt: when's last time you saw c64 anyway?
egrutt: last night he was on late
maskdbandt: are you in us too?
egrutt: i'm usually not on till after 10pm PST
maskdbandt: oh that IS late
egrutt: San Francisco
maskdbandt: i'm in dc
maskdbandt: but usually am in bed most nights by 10p PST
maskdbandt: perhaps that's why i haven't seen you before
egrutt: well great game.... learnin more :)
maskdbandt: yeah, good to finally play with you
maskdbandt: i really thought you had me a few rounds ago, wasn't expecting the good crystite prices
Jmac8674: so sell this?
egrutt: usually it takes me missing the boat on ore once to lose, u missed it twice but came back lol
maskdbandt: thanks for making this amusing too jmac and edbox
maskdbandt: jmac, it won't matter
Jmac8674: lol
Jmac8674: comic relief
