LuDucks: C'mon and play and lose for fun! :D
Orv: I'm gonna see if we can attract at least one more player. But if not we can play against A.I.s.
Orv: Let's give it 5 minutes or so.
LuDucks: True. I suspect Ron and Richard would be all over it if they weren't otherwise occupied.
LuDucks: /me gets tea.
Orv: Yeah.
Orv: Dana's gonna play, I think. So it won't be ranked, but it's better than not having another player. :>
Zodi: I'd join, but I need to be getting to bed in shorter time than a game usually takes. =)
Orv: Fair enough.
LuDucks: Back! But I've got no hurries here.

Round 1 of 12
Zodi: Hm. Nice mining spots.
LuDucks: Slow land picker!
Orv: Someone's got a slow connection, I think.
Orv: Each client has to respond for every click.
LuDucks: Huh
LuDucks: Aww low energy.
LuDucks: ...crap.
Zodi: ...Er.
LuDucks: Faaail.
Unicornchild: Dammit.
Orv: Someone's client isn't responding to UDP packets.
LuDucks: I could drop out and see if it's me?
Zodi left the game
Orv: I'm going to let it sit for a bit and see if it times out.
LuDucks: If it's me, I'd like to know so I can do something about it, too.
Orv: What's your ping like?
LuDucks: My ping is... 57ms
Orv: Shouldn't be a problem, then.
LuDucks: FPS: 60 Ping: 57:ms
Orv: The developers said it was due to network issues but I'm not totally convinced that's true.
LuDucks: Try the next round of auction stuff? Even if it does sabotauge your brilliant strategy. :)
LuDucks: Yeah.
LuDucks: I'm guessing both your pings are also low.
Unicornchild: Mine is 16.
Orv: Mine is 1. ;>
LuDucks: Definateyl not a ping thing then unles mine counts
LuDucks: Blat.
LuDucks: Retry the game from the beginning? That sometimes does help
Orv: If it's still doing it in the next round we'll do that.
Round 2 of 12
LuDucks: also got the wrong land, ahem.
LuDucks: ...
Orv: I guess we'll have to start over.
Unicornchild: Blerg.
LuDucks: Go for it
