<B.I.L.L.> was kicked

kipley: Sorry, didn't see your comment yet

BDIV: i just posted it

BRAD1867: qrem just got in lobby

BDIV: so anyways... i recently left a game of whiners saying that this game is fair

BDIV: sorry... is NOT fair

BDIV: SoooOOOOooo nice to be with pros

kipley: Well, yeah. They're right. It's a game... there's luck involved... luck by nature isn't going to be fair.

BDIV: i can't think of a single factor in life that is fair

BDIV: so as far as i am concerned fairness is a myth created by losers that can't adapt to change

kipley: Not to mention parents who believe every child should get a trophy

BDIV: like where are we people... lake-woe-be-gone

qrem visits

BRAD1867: ahh

kipley: Howdy, qrem

BRAD1867: Come on Qrem

BDIV: hi

qrem joined the game in slot 4

kipley: Yay

BDIV: worth the wait

BRAD1867: gle

kipley: Have fun, everyone

Round 1 of 12

kipley: oh, boy

BDIV: i need to get a book

BRAD1867: Is this going real slow

BDIV: yes

kipley: yep.

kipley: But I've seen it go slow for just a single land grant round, and then speed back up to normal again afterwards, so let's hope that's what we'll get this time

BDIV: true

BRAD1867: Ya, or this is about to crash

kipley: Doubt it'll crash altogether. Maybe it'll kick one player, but the server should be solid.

BDIV: wow i had enough time to go to the bathroom and get a book

BDIV: and that changes the game

kipley: Oh boy, here we go

BDIV: oh boy

Round 2 of 12

BDIV: you realise you help us all when you do that right?

kipley: Sure, but I take better crystite notes than most, so it winds up being a net advantage for me.

BDIV: qrem do you speak english?

qrem: sometimes

kipley: Heh!

BDIV: :)

Round 3 of 12

Round 4 of 12

BDIV: keep going

BDIV: you are the leader

kipley: I was actually pretty generous to give you food at the price... with no food plot yourself, we could starve you indefinitely and you'd never be able to do anything!

Round 5 of 12

BDIV: i concur with kip

BRAD1867: Yep

kipley: If it was BDIV, I'd have starved him... but you're still new here! ;-)

BDIV: lol he isn't that new

BRAD1867: I fail

BDIV: and i have played enough games that i would expect no less from kip

BRAD1867: i have only played like 4 games:)

BDIV: you lost a mule not your life

BDIV: if you have a shortage and no plots of your own to produce you WILL pay top dollar for our stock

kipley: The important thing is, you got a food plot going

BDIV: just the way the game goes

BDIV: exactly as kip said

BDIV: nifty

kipley: Yeah, right in the middle of surrounding claimed plots

BDIV: hence the irony of the situation

BDIV: ouch

BRAD1867: lol

kipley: Speaking of irony

BDIV: i need to sell a few

BDIV: fine

BDIV: sheesh

kipley: Couldn't compute in my head whether we'd be able to buy out the store or not with you selling tooo

BDIV: i wasn't going to sell all

BDIV: i needed money for a mule

kipley: Took me too long to realize that was your intention

BDIV: well now you understand

kipley: Now that it's a little too late! ;-)

BDIV: by time we come around again there will be to few in the store to worry about

Round 6 of 12

BDIV: lol

BDIV: how is that for irony

BDIV: a great game so far

BDIV: the irony and laughs are through the roof

BRAD1867: That one sucks the most

BDIV: ouch

BDIV: sorry kip

kipley: Yeah, I always hope that event comes out when I'm not in the lead.

kipley: Well, at least I won't be in the lead anymore

BDIV: or second

BDIV: though it seems to be hitting only 1st place lately

kipley: Twice as likely to hit first... since second can get either good or bad events, while first can only get bad.

BRAD1867: It hit me on turn 2 in second place yesterday

BDIV: bad or none at all you men

BDIV: *mean

kipley: Yep

BDIV: same as me

kipley: Wouldn't have been in first anymore next turn anyways... it hit one turn too soon

BDIV: that resolves that

BDIV: that river plot will really help you brad

BRAD1867: yep

Round 7 of 12

BDIV: *sigh* you try to help people... but no

kipley: I may take it... foods been worth a lot lately!

BDIV: sounds like a plan

BDIV: you would get the most out of it

BDIV: i will let you have it

kipley: yeah, adjaceny and everything

kipley: Oh, I'm sure you have other plots that you're eying

BDIV: i will not be trying to get it so you have to fight the other two for it

BDIV: OUCH

kipley: huh

kipley: ruined my 6 smithore

BDIV: it took out your mountains

BDIV: hang tight or sell

BDIV: ?

BDIV: well brad determined we are selling at 122 instead of 230

kipley: The people have spoken

BRAD1867: Sorry

kipley: Not a bad move on Brad's part... it would have helped you the most to spike it higher

BDIV: actually i had alot of spoilage

BDIV: i was trying to weight the cost to loss

BRAD1867: Yea, he was over 50

BDIV: *weigh

BDIV: with that much stock in the store it is beginning for a nice inferno

BDIV: *begging

BDIV: yeah i am not tired...

kipley: that would make 3... don't think it'll happen

Round 8 of 12

BDIV: thought we only had one

BDIV: right at the beginning and that was it

kipley: one first turn, and I'm pretty sure there was a second

kipley: But not positive

kipley: No, there was, because I remember we sold food back to the store, then it burned again

BDIV: lol

BDIV: we bought it out

BDIV: oh wait yeah there was 5 smithore

BDIV: lol

kipley: Then we sold food back when it was real expensive

BDIV: wow i am out of it

kipley: Cause I had two food plots, and sold the excess for profit

BDIV: where as i have two food plots for fear of insane radiation and bugs

kipley: LOL

Round 9 of 12

kipley: ah, thought you were gonna make it

qrem: me too oh well

BRAD1867: Nice try

BDIV: lol

kipley: gettin lucky with the crystite

kipley: good prices, no pirates (oops, jinxed it)

BDIV: lol

kipley: hold spacebars down!

Round 10 of 12

BRAD1867: I fail

kipley: Were you holding down the spacebar?

BRAD1867: Yep

kipley: That sucks... BDIV must have won it by lag... you should have got it

BRAD1867: i am in last, i thought it would have given me the first plot

BRAD1867: Dont matter:)

kipley: There's a know bug where the lag factors in

kipley: It matters to me... I didn't want BDIV to get that plot, it makes him that much harder for me to catch!

kipley: Silly bug.

BRAD1867: Good point

kipley: Run! Be FREE!

BDIV: lol

BDIV: quick shoot while it runs

BDIV: open mule season

kipley: heh!

kipley: Wabbit season!

BDIV: lol

BDIV: i should not be in first THIS time

BRAD1867: Firggin Pirates lost our address

kipley: Yep, the only reason I'm catching up is the great crystite/pirates luck, here

BDIV: lol

kipley: Awesome! You're my hero, Brad!

BDIV: lol

BRAD1867: Food revenge at last

Round 11 of 12

BDIV: lol

BDIV: wow

kipley: So... who's bettin' on the pirates finally showing up?

BDIV: it's about certain now

BDIV: :)

kipley: Wampus wont come

kipley: Once all the mountain plots are out

BRAD1867: ahhh

kipley: There they are

BRAD1867: lol

BDIV: and that was about as certain as the sun rising

kipley: I've been in a couple games where they never came

BDIV: i haven't been in a single game where the have NOT come out

BDIV: i was in a game where the came out three times

kipley: Happened to me at least twice. But then, I've played a lot

BDIV: smithore was the ONLY commodity that turn

kipley: 3 times for pirates? Should never happen with the current MULE code

BDIV: it's about as rare as three fires

Round 12 of 12

kipley: It'll be funny if the lost mule / pub makes the difference

BDIV: hmmmm this is going to be close

kipley: Same number of plots

kipley: Same number producing crystite

BDIV: let's see what happens

kipley: We finally got rid of our smithore, that makes the math easier

BDIV: waiting till 60 helped

kipley: You forgot to sell off your excess energy last turn when it was priced higher, that'll help me

BDIV: it was only at 23

kipley: It'll be 10 now

kipley: And you'll spoil one

BDIV: that's fine

BDIV: space

BDIV: qrem?

BDIV: looks like you want a low cry price

kipley: Of course!

kipley: uh oh

BDIV: CHA-CHING

BDIV: lol ok how many DO i have

BDIV: no enough

BDIV: lol

kipley: um, very close

kipley: 11 * 148

BDIV: *not enough

kipley: 1628

BDIV: it will be close

kipley: I've got you winning by about 300

Game Over

Saving score, please wait...

Score saved

BDIV: wow

BDIV: yeah about 300

kipley: Told ya!

BDIV: great game

kipley: Good game, BDIV

BDIV: good game kip

BRAD1867: gg u2

qrem: gg

qrem left the game

BDIV: it is ALWAYS a pleasure to play with you

qrem was disconnected

kipley: Great game, everyone

BDIV: gg brad

kipley: Likewise

BRAD1867: I failed, you guys played well

BDIV: more experience will help you

kipley: You're doing fine, Brad

kipley: There's subtle things you learn after you play as much as we have!

BDIV: just remember to start off with a balanced economy the first couple rounds

BDIV: no kidding

kipley: Yes, no food plots leave you at the mercy of your opponents

BRAD1867: yep

BDIV: the first time i played kip he wamped me with a cry strategy

BDIV: never forgot that lesson

BRAD1867: I am down for another if either of you guys start one

kipley: It's hard to tell if crystite or smithore will make the game... depends on your opponents

BDIV: you will learn to adjust to random events with more games

kipley: Too late for me, I'm heading to bed.

BRAD1867: k, gn

kipley: Cyas later!

BDIV: same here

BDIV: it is late

BRAD1867 left the game

BDIV: goodnight

BRAD1867 was disconnected

kipley: night

BDIV left the game
