Mean Jim: my dude is drunk

dggrj: doesn't explain why my auction bid wasn't taken :(

[TIG]moi: dggrj, I didn't see you go over the line, that's why

Mean Jim: a slow ping will mean that you'll perhaps see more movement than the server recognizes. happens a lot

Round 12 of 12

[TIG]moi: ,np

dggrj: big gap to close... don't think i can do it

dggrj: ah damn

dggrj: man Moag got a TON of crystite

dggrj: i guess you too again, huh OJ

dggrj: i do a bad job of getting crystite plots I've noticed

Mean Jim: crystite tends to be the key to the game

dggrj: yeah

dggrj: and manipulating ore prices

dggrj: hooooooooooly crap

dggrj: you win handily

[TIG]moi: o wow

Mean Jim: i've seen folks succesfully manipulate ore 3 times per game - that guy'll probably win...

Mean Jim: but unless multiple pirates or deflated cyrstite prices, the crystite guy normally wins

dggrj: seems that way

Game Over

Saving score, please wait...

Score saved

dggrj: but i'm only on game #4 or 5 granted

dggrj: goddamn moag, how'd he do that?

dggrj: thought assets were price + 5%

dggrj: hence converting my money, looks like it was a bad idea :-/

Mean Jim: maybe the key to moag's #63 ranking is letting the AI take over half way through :)

dggrj: hah

dggrj: well, GG

dggrj: later folks
