trst: thanks
BDIV: :)
BDIV: everybody happy/
BDIV: ?
BDIV: i am like you in regards to ping... rather wait 5 minutes for players with low ping than play a three hour long game
trst: it's torture
trst: and then i wanna abandon but cant bring myself to do it
trst: plus there was weirdness when i connected
BDIV: ugh it is torture
BDIV: i got that too
trst: took forever and then the room had "unknowns"
BDIV: had to wait to get in the room
trst: like that was what their handle had been replaced by.
trst: "unknown"
trst: brb
BDIV: fyi... if you play with dotterbust be ready for a long game where cash is low
BDIV: same brb
trst: what does he do?
BDIV: positions himself so that he has one plot of good smithore and constantly sells it to the store when he knows the store will get some
trst: i've seen a lot of that lately
BDIV: for the first 9 rounds we had only 3k between all four of us
BDIV: at most
BDIV: yeah people are getting intimidated by others or something
trst: i sorta hate that
BDIV: no more risk takers
BDIV: personally i think they should rebalance the game to the way it was meant to be on atari and C64
trst: i never played it before this. what should be rebalanced?
BDIV: well in the old game
BDIV: if you were on the same buy or sell line as the store the person bought or sold to the store first REGARDLESS if others were there buying or selling
BDIV: this prevents people from just hanging on the line and makes them pay
trst: they could go one more up or down, though, right?
BDIV: yes
BDIV: that was how you had to do it
BDIV: back then
BDIV: also
BDIV: the store reacted more like a human than a computer back then
BDIV: if someone decided to buy out the store of energy, food, or smith the store dropped it's buy price BIG time the next turn
trst: dropped?
BDIV: yes
trst: if there's none in the store the price went down?
BDIV: the computer reacted more like a fifth player than a direct result of supply demand
BDIV: no... if someone BOUGHT OUT the store during the end phase the computer picked up on the trend and instead of buying it back for a higher price would put in a LOWER buy price
BDIV: this prevented people from making a mint in one turn... the person had to plan ahead for two turns to make a profit on buying out the store
trst: hmm
BDIV: so in essence the store acted more like a fifth player than a calculator of direct supply demand
BDIV: if there was a natural shortage it was different
BDIV: but the store picked up on players deliberately buying out the store if to many units were sold during the end phase
trst: not knowing the other game i quite enjoy this one.
BDIV: i agree
BDIV: this one is fun
