Round 1 of 12

kipley: Have fun, everyone

Paladinian: Indeed! Good luck all!

Paladinian: There be one pirate gone.

Round 2 of 12

bsboy: Whoops didn't remember from my C64 days that you couldn't mind on a river bed

Round 3 of 12

Paladinian: Lucky. :)

kipley: But my mule was smashed... so very tragic!

Paladinian: We all shed a tear for its sad demise. :)

Round 4 of 12

Who is Your M.U.L.E.: bsboy, you don't have to line them up nice like on the 64, you can drop them on the fly :)

bsboy: Thanks who is your

kipley: uh oh

kipley: we're breaking up

Paladinian: ...

kipley: and we're back

Round 5 of 12

Round 6 of 12

Round 7 of 12

Paladinian: No more wampus

Paladinian: ARGH

bsboy: Thanks for letting me know so I don't waste everyone's time. Very rusty on this game.

kipley: Yep, always sucks to be in the lead when that event rolls around

Paladinian: There *wasn't* a wampus. Losing the plot means he's back.

Paladinian: So small comfort. :)

kipley: Heh

kipley: The wumpus must have stolen the deed to the plot

Paladinian: Damn, I thought the wampus and I had an *understanding*. :)

kipley: You jumped on him one too many times, and he got annoyed

Round 8 of 12

Paladinian: Double ARGH

Paladinian: Well, if it wasn't certain before, I do believe I'm sunk now. Losing 2 plots, with the minimal crystite I've got, means momentum is certainly not on my side. :(

kipley: That's happened to me so often, I've become a firm believer in NOT being in the lead until the second half of the game.

Paladinian: I haven't perfect the art of artificially "losing" yet. :(

kipley: it's tricky

kipley: But the good thing about the "stay out of the lead" strategy is, that you can blame all your mistakes on the strategy! ;-)

Paladinian: Such is its convenience. :p

Round 9 of 12

Paladinian: bsboy, just a head's up: Smith and Cryst spoils over 50

kipley: bsboy, smithore and crystite both spoil down to 50 at the beginning of the turn

kipley: so you usually don't want to end up with more than that

bsboy: Thanks - been a long time since I played this

Paladinian: Misclicked. :(

kipley: yep, figured

kipley: One more insult to your injury

Round 10 of 12

Paladinian: I'm putting together a collection. :p

kipley: Heh... nice idea!

kipley: You haven't accidentally let a mule loose yet... I recommend that!

Who is Your M.U.L.E.: LOL

kipley: heh

Paladinian: Yup. "Accidentally". Yuppers. :)

kipley: If I'd known I had such power, I'd have wished for something better!

Paladinian: I must have the full set! :)

kipley: How about the ultra-rare "accidentally auction off a plot of your land" error?!

Paladinian: !!!

kipley: HEH! Never seen all four with 50!

kipley: That's awesome!

kipley: (Now watch the price go DOWN next turn...!)

Paladinian: Just wait... Pirates!

bsboy: Definitely pirates

Round 11 of 12

kipley: sweet

Paladinian: I really thought we'd get a good old Pirate smack-down there. :)

kipley: ack! Sold more than I wanted to!

Round 12 of 12

Paladinian: I don't think you need be concerned. :)

kipley: Well, didn't have time to convert all my plots anyways, so no matter

kipley: And now energy will probably be worth more, so no big loss

Who is Your M.U.L.E.: forgot to load him up, lol

kipley: A valiant attempt. I was worried all three of you would work to spike smithore at the end. Don't think you quite made it

Paladinian: No, if we had managed to empty it, it might have done something

bsboy: Nope overestimated my time to release the MULES

Paladinian: Oh well. Desperate times and all that. :)

kipley: You'd have to empty a couple plots of land, too, but yeah.

Paladinian: Congrats, kipley. :)

kipley: At least your crystite gamble was a net gain

kipley: Thanks. Good game, everyone!

bsboy: Yes good game

bsboy: Survived my first on-line game and got trounced in the process

Who is Your M.U.L.E.: thx for the game :)

kipley: Poor Palandian just couldn't survive the onslaught of bad events that come with being in the lead early.

Game Over

Saving score, please wait...

Score saved

Paladinian: GG folks! Have a good one, eh?

kipley: There's a lot of new strategy when you start playing human players. But you'll figure it out with more games.
