Round 7 of 12
Sgt York: lol
RexRabbit: ...
AJ: lol
AJ: ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
RexRabbit: I was expressing emotion, not spamming lol
AJ: ...
AJ: .......
Sgt York: space, sniper?
AJ: ......................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sniper: u need to learn how crystite plots are laid out. 3 = High, then each up, down, left right = 2, each up, down, left right beyond that is 1 and those adjacent to the original high are 1s too
Sgt York: who r u talk'n to?
Sniper: AJ
AJ: kk
Sgt York: aj is colluding with Rex.. he's not interested
RexRabbit: We're colluding?
RexRabbit: Wish I knew that earlier...
AJ: i dont know ethier
Sgt York: doesn't matter.. no diff than ai
RexRabbit: Good to know now though
AJ: lol
RexRabbit: You know, we might have colluded the whole game and known nothing of it!
AJ: exactly!!!!!
Sniper: You never sell energy or food to opponents unless u gain more than they do
AJ: i knew
Sniper: then that's proof for Sgt York
Sniper: because u didn't gain more than they did
Round 8 of 12
RexRabbit: that shouldn't be legal
Sniper: these plots are shit
RexRabbit: that's true
Sniper: i have half the f'n right half of the map and probably have only 2 plots with crystite on them
Sniper: I gambled and lost big
RexRabbit: I don't get why AJ is pushing the price up
RexRabbit: makes it more costly for everybody
AJ: i dont know ethier
RexRabbit: ok good
RexRabbit: that makes 2 of us XD
Sgt York: going to release the last one sniper?
Sgt York: not enuf time - lol
RexRabbit: Thanks for leaving it for me
Sniper: u are lucky to have that one. I wanted to let that go too
RexRabbit: Yes I know.
RexRabbit: I was being sarcastic
RexRabbit: Joking around
RexRabbit: I like to have fun while playing games, too.
RexRabbit: I think that's pretty much the end of the Smithore market
Sniper: I guess I was just stating the obvious, eh? Heh. Poor management on my part
RexRabbit: If you want to look at it that way.
Sgt York: it was.. he could have released 1st, then used the lsat one to do what he wanted
Sgt York: saved the time to run all the way back
RexRabbit: 3 is max before energy spoils, correct?
Round 9 of 12
AJ: sry guys i have to go now :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
Sniper: no different than AI
AJ: by byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
RexRabbit: that's because he will be ai
RexRabbit: bye
AJ: my dad just said i did not have to leave
AJ: yay
RexRabbit: ok....
AJ: sorry
RexRabbit: no problem I suppose
Sniper: mule out, wumpus caught, pubbed it... take that glac elves
AJ: ... . . .
RexRabbit: The glac-elves are like ninja
RexRabbit: ninjas
RexRabbit: I wish I had a private army of them
RexRabbit: Then I could just send them out and make them eat the food of my opponents
RexRabbit: Or better yet, bring some of it back so I could use it instead
RexRabbit: I would sell if I were you, AJ
AJ: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . not yet
RexRabbit: The price will probably never get this high again
Round 10 of 12
Sniper: so much easier to convert to crystite on that side of the map, eh?
Sgt York: yep - is why i have b een targing that area
Sgt York: lets you go back/forth b/t crist/ore a bit more
Sgt York: and i've also learned how little the x3 and x2 bonuses really impact things
Sgt York: once you get over 9 plots
RexRabbit: Earth to AJ...
Sgt York: what is going to kill me is the 2 plots on the east side - trying to get them done by 12th round
RexRabbit: An excellent turn
Sniper: i had a zero plot crystite all by itself produce 4 while one connected that was a low produced 2. That's bogus
Sgt York: that's what i'm saying
Sgt York: the chances of it going less than 39 are slijm
Sniper: damn.
RexRabbit: whee
AJ: i finish in last :(:(:(:(:(:(
Sniper: river plot produce 3 bs
Sgt York: in the final 3rd of the game they produce less
Sniper: but in round 11 they'll produce 6
RexRabbit: At least we all get a steak dinner
AJ: lol
AJ: why do you do that??
Round 11 of 12
RexRabbit: Do what?
AJ: all go on buy then go up
RexRabbit: Auctions are all just messing with people's head
RexRabbit: that's all economics is
RexRabbit: That's 2 MULEs down in one turn
Sgt York: i got 3 converted - all i wanted that round
RexRabbit: true --- perhaps I was just stating the obvious
Sgt York: 3 more to convert in final round, but they are closer.. shouldn't be an issue, unless they throw something at me end of this round
Sniper: pirates in round 11 would suck
Sgt York: like mule running off
Sniper: that kinda sucks too
Sgt York: ore wenet up
Sniper: fucking 2? I'm screwed for sure
Sniper: that is horseshit
Sniper: I still like the original better. It just seems more honest
Sgt York: i played ag ame yesterday - i was in last all game - and i got hit continuously like i was in 1st
Sgt York: the guy in 1st didn't get hit at all
Sgt York: he even commented on it..
RexRabbit: that was amusing
Round 12 of 12
Sniper: Ummm. nice. My plots? Hello. WTF flaw
Sgt York: shoudl give me a 4th x3 plot bonus.. shoudl seal the deal
Sgt York: sniper..just FYI.. one thing i've recently learned.. the x3 and x2 bonuses for crist dont' mean jack
Sniper: i guess my mules like to run off on their own
Sgt York: bc they help early, but u can't crist early
Sgt York: i'll give u 400 for that moose rat
Sgt York: look at that.. x0 crits producing 6 and 7
Sgt York: personally - i think x0 crist should always produce NOTHING - would balance the game more
Sniper: That's how the original game is.
AJ: ok.........
Sniper: Well, you get the bonus bars
RexRabbit: It was good playing with you
Sniper: and a small possibility of 1 extra or so
Sgt York: i mean, who digs for oil... there is no oil ther.e. but yet you get oil?
AJ: i come in last and that's final!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sniper: but something weird happened and I don't know why. I got screwed though I was going to lose anyway.
Sgt York: u guys let me buy 3 plots.was one mistake.. never let someone get 12 outside of the river
Sgt York: that gives them the extra 4th x3 bonus - that is worth an extra 10 bars
Sniper: it helps when all 4 people know how to play
Sgt York: AJ was only hurting himself
Sniper: If one person takes it upon himself to stop another, he won't win. He'll only help that other person lose
AJ: i know i was
Game Over
Saving score, please wait...
Score saved
Sniper: The best game I had I lost and stuck it to someone by selling mules to the store
AJ: told you i was last
RexRabbit: ok um
Sgt York: rex in 3rd
AJ: bye
RexRabbit: yeah...
Sgt York: lol
Sgt York: i've done the same sniper - lol
RexRabbit: Stating the obvious again, are we?
AJ left the game
Sgt York: anytime u go against someone - you always lose - LOL
AJ was disconnected
Sgt York: but.. often u can bring him down too
Sniper: GG except for AJ which is one letter away from AI oddly enough
Sgt York: my biggest thing is - if someone doesn't invest in food by rnd 2 - i won't sell to them at all
Sgt York: whylet someone go 2-3 rounds of ore/crist - while we supply them??
RexRabbit: ok, gg, bye.
Sniper: Buying out the store of energy in round 1 is tops
Sgt York: yep
RexRabbit left the game
Sgt York: i let someone else buy th eore and food
RexRabbit was disconnected
Sgt York: and i go for the energy
Sgt York: then i can invest food first.. then ore
Sniper: I do too but if others beat you to it, can't do it.
Sgt York: someone who buys food.. can go to round 3 to get food.. so he can go ore/ore/food
Sniper: I gambled and lost big because the lousy crystite placement on the map
Sgt York: i use to always buy ore out..but i've learned the loss of cash flow in th eearly game made me lose everytime
Sgt York: don't worry about the placemente
Sgt York: i got really good at getting the right placements
Sniper: Yeah, but I still produced for crap.
Sgt York: i played a game last week.. i had 3 x3; 5 x3 and a x1 and STILL LOSE the crist battle
Sgt York: consider this....
Sgt York: if u get all 3 x3 and 4 x2.. that is a bonus of 13
Sgt York: however, u get 10 for each 3 plots u mine
Sgt York: thus if they have 8 and u have 9 - you get a 10 bonus
Sgt York: that 1 plot - even if all of ur plots are x0 - is totally countered
Sniper: Ah. ok. I will be trying that next one
Sgt York: i've begun to learn that proximity of closeness to the base is more important
Sniper: Yes...that left side is so much better
Sgt York: jsut something i've learned in the past few days.. i'm still experimenting w/it..but it's been working
Sgt York: if i get plots on the right side.. i put crist on em and forget about it and try to work the left side instead
Sniper: and the standard ditching of the energy plot at the end of the game when you have the energy to carry through
Sgt York: u can switch between food/energy/ore or crist really fast.. usually 3-4 plots
Sniper: replacing food plot with your last energy
Sniper: I see more people catching on to the trick
Sniper: I played poorly about that.
Sgt York: yep.. i started doing that a month ago
Sgt York: just b/c u don't need food anymore
Sgt York: key is...
Sgt York: get at least 10 plots... 1 in river.. and 9 for crist.. and if at all possible.. go for 12
Sgt York: 13 total.. 14th doesn't matter.. but OPTIMUM is 13
Sgt York: 1 for river + 12 land plots
Sgt York: i often come up 1 short
Sniper: I have a hard time focusing when some non-player throws a wrench into play
Sgt York: but u guys let me buy 2 plots for about 1300
Sniper: like AJ
Sgt York: i would paid 2000 for a piece of land if it got me to 12
Sniper: I didn't know it was you going for the last one. I would have done something. lol. That's what I get for leaving it to those guys
Sgt York: lol
Sniper: I ignored that 2nd land sale.
Sgt York: AJ had money
Sgt York: and he wouldn't buy food.. start producing it.. or anything.. he was colluding with Rex - and they were just not ggood at it
Sniper: Yeah. Terrible.
Sniper: I like the trick of selling one unit...that is fun in some games
Sgt York: yes, that drives th eprice up
Sniper: Does it work when demand isn't high ?
Sgt York: sometimes i'll buy one real high if i don't need it "IF" everyone else does... so i can invest in it next round
Sniper: like everyone has food and someone buys one real high?
Sniper: Like in round 11 of this game (nobody bought though)
Sgt York: i tell you also.. i was VERY vulnerable at one point... u guys could have squashed me...
Sgt York: well - food always suppressed in round 12 no matter what
Sgt York: last game... i bought food for 400 - two of us did - none in store.. and it dropped from150 to only 40
Sgt York: never trust food/energy in final 2 rounds
Sniper: True. Now I want to try out the game again. But I have to go to the store and buy some 2.5" hard drives. UGh. What to do!?!
Sgt York: do u know where u guys had me??
Sgt York: about round 9 when i wente up and bought the store out to 50
Sgt York: instead of joining me... and buying the last 30
Sgt York: u coulda stuck me w/it
Sgt York: then mined ore and sold it th enext round.. driving prices DOWN
Sgt York: and i woulda lost a ton of money instead of making it
Sgt York: and i couldn't stop u because i already had 50
Sniper: Yeah. I do recall that. I love cutthroat games.
Sgt York: been fun sniper
Sniper: L8r dude
Sgt York: i'm going to take off.. good luck :)
