Round 1 of 12
Comrade Kangaroo: yay!
chuckyv: gl all
Comrade Kangaroo: whoops
Comrade Kangaroo: Hope that's a high plot
tartarus.guard: i hope i don't suck like i did last game :)
Comrade Kangaroo: uh oh
chuckyv: thats not good
kipley: yep
chuckyv is not responding to continue
Users who are not responding must be kicked to continue the game
Comrade Kangaroo: 78 ping
kipley: 94ms
chuckyv: 41ms
tartarus.guard: chuckyv is the one the game client is concerned with, though that is odd if your ping is 41
chuckyv: those are all good numbers
Comrade Kangaroo: Chucky it's you. Can you fix it? Game wants to kick you out
kipley: Odd you can chat, chucky... as the computer thinks you're not responding
tartarus.guard: chucky, is your ping time fluctuating?
chuckyv: no not fluctuating
chuckyv: steady at 41
Comrade Kangaroo: I'm up to 93 now
kipley: 93 for me
chuckyv: still at 41
Comrade Kangaroo: Well this is poop soup
chuckyv: want to restart?
Comrade Kangaroo: We could all eat the abandon and start a new game
kipley: whatever.
Comrade Kangaroo: I'd be willing. AI just makes things too predictable
tartarus.guard: what client are you on chucky?
chuckyv: client?
chuckyv: Let me back out and see if that fixes it
chuckyv left the game
Computer takes over chuckyv
tartarus.guard: INFO [Server.logRoundtrip] Roundtrips: <P10> 16ms <P11> 94ms <P13> 141ms <P12> 94ms
tartarus.guard: i think his ping response lagged at one point, logs showed 141ms on somebody
Comrade Kangaroo: This is the third game in a row that someone was dropped in the first round
Comrade Kangaroo: That I've played
tartarus.guard: trying to play and read a log file is tricky :)
Round 2 of 12
kipley: heh
Comrade Kangaroo: Good for the AI
Comrade Kangaroo: He'll sell
kipley: yep
Round 3 of 12
tartarus.guard: is it just me or does 1.2.3 seem to do a lot of early land auctions compaired to older versions?
Comrade Kangaroo: I've found the opposite
tartarus.guard: just coincidence I guess, it's happened in all my games lately
Round 4 of 12
Round 5 of 12
Round 6 of 12
kipley: perfect pricing
Comrade Kangaroo: whoops
tartarus.guard: i know that feeling
kipley: yep, that was unfortunate
Comrade Kangaroo: C'est la vie
Round 7 of 12
Comrade Kangaroo: Sweet
Comrade Kangaroo: Not sweet
tartarus.guard: why did you have to go and say it
Comrade Kangaroo: I said nothing!
tartarus.guard: i'm taking your rye away
Comrade Kangaroo: Never!
Comrade Kangaroo: You can't make me! I'll tell mom
Round 8 of 12
kipley: long way to run to those 3 plots
Comrade Kangaroo: Should I make a Springsteen reference here?
tartarus.guard: yes
Comrade Kangaroo: Baby, I was Born to Run!
kipley: Pink Floyd:
kipley: Run... run... run... run... run... run... run... run...
Comrade Kangaroo: The Who:
Comrade Kangaroo: Girl you better run, run, run
Comrade Kangaroo: I got a million and one songs about running. Okay, just a million
Round 9 of 12
kipley: nice cashin
Comrade Kangaroo: Thanks
Round 10 of 12
kipley: Holding my spacebar down all the way, too
tartarus.guard: i think it is because you have more plots than me
kipley: last place should get the tiebreaker
kipley: But I think it favors time of spacebar press, too
kipley: I pressed it even before the land grant started, maybe TOO early
Round 11 of 12
Round 12 of 12
kipley: STAMPEDE
tartarus.guard: :) will be interesting to see if it works.
tartarus.guard: with all plots developed i didn't think it would spike
kipley: I think I also needed to get rid of a couple mules off my plots, to make some empty plots to make it work
Comrade Kangaroo: Good game folks
kipley: But didn't have time for all that
kipley: But had to try
kipley: I've seen it spike to 230 on the last turn, but in that game the guy had released mules off his lots
kipley: I was going to try that, but ran out of time
kipley: Fun experiment, though
Comrade Kangaroo: Should be close, tartarus
kipley: Between me and the computer?! ;-)
tartarus.guard: yeah, and we'll have a decent colony score
Comrade Kangaroo: Thanks for hosting
Game Over
Saving score, please wait...
