Round 1 of 12

bigheadzach: Should be 1.2.3

jonpublic: the music always reminds me of old luna

jonpublic: i must have missed the strategy session

jonpublic: everyone else went for ore

bigheadzach: you went for Food...when the Store runs out, charge a lot for your surplus

bigheadzach: When they go for Food, you go for Smithore...or Energy

bigheadzach: I'll be quiet if the others don't want me advising

jonpublic: i think it's fine

jonpublic: a couple of us are noobs

steyt: I've been playing this since I was 4

steyt: in 1984

jonpublic: and steyt destroys

steyt: nonzero won the last one

nonzero: Just barely =D if you hadn't lost that mule...

steyt: man I hate having to watch this fucking puppy

jonpublic: i hear that

jonpublic: i'm watching drunk suz here

for_fraks_sake: you honkies

bigheadzach: 4 more MULEs will get produced for next turn.

jonpublic: frak is an ass

bigheadzach: Here's where you sell, Jon :)

jonpublic: doh

bigheadzach: No worries...they'll have less time to act next turn...and they'll either have to start their own Food prod, or buy from you ;)

Round 2 of 12

jonpublic: doh

bigheadzach: Land is worth a minimum $500 at the end

jonpublic: whoops

jonpublic: i thought you could get crystal out of the barren land

for_fraks_sake: you can

for_fraks_sake: just unknown how much

bigheadzach: Crystite is underground

bigheadzach: There are 3 "High" spaces, surrounded by Mediums, which are surrounded by Lows

bigheadzach: Correction...4 High spaces

steyt: and a meteor makes super-high

steyt: inb4 nonzero driving up smithore

bigheadzach: State your price here...see if they'll nibble

steyt: DEMAND A HIGH PRICE MARTIN

steyt: HE'S GOING TO KILL US WITH SMITHORE

nonzero: me? Look at fraks with his 2 plots! =D

Round 3 of 12

bigheadzach: If you want to stop a smithore spike...keep people from producing more, or ensure the demand for MULEs is met

steyt: we can't sell it to the store.

bigheadzach: Demand for MULEs is always the number of owned but unused plots + 4 (max of 8)

bigheadzach: If there are less MULEs than the demand, Smithore price goes up

bigheadzach: Demand = 5, Supply =5. Price is stable

bigheadzach: Hmmm..both Fires are already gone.

jonpublic: let's be a monopoly

jonpublic: yay

for_fraks_sake: i know...but could use cash

Round 4 of 12

bigheadzach: With such an Energy shortage, soon the Store will come begging with better prices!

bigheadzach: One could try and setup their own Energy MULEs, but is there enough cash to do so with MULE prices soon to skyrocket?

steyt: we are heading fast toward a failed economy

jonpublic: let's get a bailout

steyt: too many assholes on this planet

steyt: heh

jonpublic: that's your new favorite word

jonpublic: asshole

jonpublic: stoned suz here

jonpublic: she definitely seems stoned, she just stares out into space

steyt: I'm sure that lula is chewing on something or peeing somewhere

bigheadzach: Produce what Smithore you can...

steyt: GUYS WE NEED TO SELL SMITHORE OR MULES ARE GOING TO GET OUT OF CONTROL

jonpublic: lula is probably cleanign the floor

bigheadzach: Price is going go up this turn already - Demand = 7, Supply = 2

steyt: button here jonpublic

steyt: skips the production

steyt: ouch

jonpublic: bunch of jerks playing this game

steyt: indeed

for_fraks_sake: no food

for_fraks_sake: for the suckers

jonpublic: frak those guys

jonpublic: i woulda sold to not asshole

steyt: heh

bigheadzach: Let em starve, while you continue to advance. You can't eat Smithore ;)

jonpublic: i think you can eat piles of mone

jonpublic: money

Round 5 of 12

nonzero: hahah

steyt: that is kind of broken

jonpublic: very

jonpublic: i can't believe i paid for this game

steyt: ??

jonpublic: asshole joke

jonpublic: asshole sarcasm

for_fraks_sake: haha!

steyt: word

jonpublic: oh shit

jonpublic: dude

steyt: karma bitches

jonpublic: that sucks

for_fraks_sake: no doubt

steyt: !@#$

steyt: press your button jon

for_fraks_sake: martin bouton

jonpublic: sorry

bigheadzach: If you want another price spike, you'll need to get rid of all that in the store - or at least hide it somewhere else ;)

bigheadzach: That price only goes to $148...$128 is a decent selling price

jonpublic: doh

steyt: next time sell me food

nonzero: I was offering a good price ;)

for_fraks_sake: no

Round 6 of 12

jonpublic: frak

steyt: dude, the store has so much smithore

jonpublic: i suck at this game

Round 7 of 12

nonzero: shit was in the wrong window

nonzero: hammering space, and nothing was happening

jonpublic: and i couldn't buy

jonpublic: that down thing is kinda broken

steyt: how is snowboarding "anti-establishment"

jonpublic: well they can't get sponsers

steyt: jonpublic: you do have to have enough money to make the bid

jonpublic: or anything

steyt: epic turn nonzero

nonzero: hahah so much done!

steyt: that wumpus hunting was super effective

nonzero: that little blue dude must love me, that was lucky

bigheadzach: 19 unMULEd spots remain...

for_fraks_sake: the play order should be like power grid

bigheadzach: It is how it is for good reasons :)

nonzero: i just played power grid the other day, that game is pretty fun

steyt: !@#$

nonzero: jackled

nonzero: and jacked

for_fraks_sake: WTF!!!

steyt: that's two pirate ships

bigheadzach: Then there's no more pirates.

steyt: chance of that is somewhere around 17%

bigheadzach: Sell your Crystite now, it will not get any better

steyt: is that true? I don't know about that.

steyt: besides they stole it all

bigheadzach: Store price ain't sell-worthy at all

jonpublic: they should send the marines to detroit instead of other countries

bigheadzach: I meant Smithore. Sorry about that. Smithore is now tanked

bigheadzach: Energy surplus...someone's looking to stockpile and do some early Crystite conversion :)

for_fraks_sake: wow, i got F'd on that round

Round 8 of 12

bigheadzach: $32,000 in round 8...I smell tentville!

jonpublic: how do you convert?

steyt: yeah we suck

bigheadzach: Go out to a plot, press button to pick up the MULE, take it back to town to refit it, then take it back to plot

steyt: I can

bigheadzach: Start installing Crystite MULEs wherever you can (the better places if you can)...and begin to convert the other types into Crystite, if you can afford producing less energy

steyt: I can't decide if running through the store or out through the river is faster

for_fraks_sake: just look out for the Reavers

bigheadzach: Both pirates are already used up, so now just wait for the right price to sell

for_fraks_sake: is there always two fires and two pirates?

steyt: max

steyt: not always

bigheadzach: If you check the How-To-Play, you see how many of each event can happen. Think of it like a deck of cards with so many copies of each

bigheadzach: Each turn, you draw one from the deck.

steyt: and the deck size > 12

nonzero: yeah it did

steyt: that's a bug

steyt: that's supposed to happen before production

bigheadzach: the same effect nonetheless

steyt: yeah but they should fix that

steyt: it is... inelegant

jonpublic: yer inelegent

bigheadzach: daaaaaaaaaang

steyt: your mom's inelegant

jonpublic: fer $50

Round 9 of 12

for_fraks_sake: higher!

for_fraks_sake: higher

for_fraks_sake: take it like you mean it

steyt: wow

steyt: !

jonpublic: drives up subsequent prices

steyt: you know planetmule logs everything?

steyt: incl. chats

nonzero: rut roh

bigheadzach: That's correct

jonpublic: oh noes

for_fraks_sake: bye bye!

steyt: woo! charity!

for_fraks_sake: were's my charity?

steyt: I just blew the charity money not making it to the casino

nonzero: dick

for_fraks_sake: that's she said

steyt: what an asshole mule

steyt: dollar bills

steyt: your charity was not selling last turn

for_fraks_sake: that was a mistake actually

steyt: I know

steyt: that's why I say charity

Round 10 of 12

jonpublic: i dunno why the olympics seems less olympicy now

steyt: they seem plenty olympic-y to me i guess

steyt: dvr ftw btw

steyt: so many commercials

steyt: it is worse than the nfl

nonzero: wow

nonzero: it's like the game hates me

steyt: first place gets picked on

bigheadzach: 1st place curse...beware!

jonpublic: cnbc isn't bad

nonzero: I won't win, I'm pretty sure now, not enough land

steyt: not sure about that

Round 11 of 12

jonpublic: i'm out after this game

for_fraks_sake: what are you still doing with ore?

steyt: dollar bills

bigheadzach: SELL

steyt: careful

for_fraks_sake: shhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttttttttttttttt

steyt: well that went well

nonzero: fuck yeah it did ;)

steyt: I think we just saved our colony score

bigheadzach: That's why you pray for early double pirates

jonpublic: assholes

nonzero: puts you well above me =D

Round 12 of 12

steyt: nice

steyt: I voted for your mule at that fair

jonpublic: i didn't

jonpublic: it was a a-hole

nonzero: my mule is the shit

steyt: it's freaking unbelievable

nonzero: I'm not normally attracted to that sorta thing...but damn

bigheadzach: Frak lucked out with his unpowered plots

nonzero: what happened to my energy ;P

steyt: I think you need a bit more since you trashed energy mules

steyt: energy mules consume no energy

nonzero: oh hax

steyt: so they don't count toward your quota

nonzero: didn't know that

bigheadzach: No need to sell in round 12

steyt: yeah it's in the docs somewhere

jonpublic: sounds like a trap

nonzero: it is a trapped, and it totally got me

bigheadzach: Actually, if you sell Food or Energy in round 12 you actually LOSE money

steyt: that is interesting

steyt: how does that work

bigheadzach: So just everyone move to BUY, it saves time

steyt: this was different on the atari

bigheadzach: Any goods you keep at the end just get sold for market value - Food and Energy are sold BELOW market value by the Store - so don't sell to them

steyt: lol 215

Game Over

Saving score, please wait...

Score saved

steyt: woohoo! call me the comeback kid

nonzero: Need to buy more land...

nonzero: nicely played, sir!

steyt: wow we really kicked colony ass

steyt: over 100000

steyt: did not see that coming

for_fraks_sake: land is key

jonpublic: >9000

bigheadzach: $120,000 is the best ending

steyt: over nine-thousand indeed
