WhoosThis: haha
WhoosThis: its a joke
schmede: i hoped you'd say that
schmede: i got owned in my first game
Daniel: Vodka enjoys the situatuion both games waiting (for him?) :-)
schmede: no need to give anybody more advantages
schmede: he owned me with crystalite -.-
schmede: nice prices for that, and undependent from current supply/demand
WhoosThis: but you have to worry about pirates
schmede: yeah, didn't see that last time
schmede: just earthquakes
WhoosThis: quakes are annoying too
WhoosThis: seems like every game has 2
Daniel: or 3
Daniel: and possbibly none or 1
schmede: i was actually bying crystalite from him, to gamble on the price fluctuation
WhoosThis: do you know if the races have abilities that effect game play daniel?
Daniel: but 2 sounds good to my stats
Daniel: the same as in original
WhoosThis: what were they in original
Daniel: humanoid does have lower time
schmede: than when i wanted to sell all crytalite in the 12th round, the connection failed
schmede: really?
schmede: didn't know that
WhoosThis: legs guy moves faster
WhoosThis: some give you prod bonuses
Daniel: off course, do you even know why playing Humanoid ;-)
WhoosThis: why?
schmede: what is the advantage of human than?
Daniel: because we are (they) too smart ;-) (orginal text!)
Daniel: adv?? yeah, there is one I found out.... getting positive events, even when on 2nd place
Daniel: 1st place seems to be more cursed than any other species
Daniel: :-)
WhoosThis: what is the adv of polly?
Daniel: whoos polly?
WhoosThis: my race
WhoosThis: the walking parrot
Daniel: Aaah, well they have the most time
Daniel: bird.like species....
Daniel: e.g. Rhodan
WhoosThis: ug
WhoosThis: madmax joined rhos game
WhoosThis: rho always likes to have host advantage so he never joins other games
Daniel: we should have called him with german text, sigh... too late
schmede: gotta change my race to packer
Daniel: packer was also favourite by ma
Daniel: but one time I stayed forever...
WhoosThis: packers produce extra food?
Daniel: I havent found out yet, how....
Daniel: maybe a 3plot bonus while having only 2
Daniel: 2 food plots
Daniel: 3 food (anywhere) gives you the first bonus
WhoosThis: http://www.planetmule.com/forum?topic=932.0
WhoosThis: according to this i should receive an extra 600
Daniel: 600 what?
schmede: damn, i can't change the race after register
WhoosThis: $
WhoosThis: Human: descrip = from the Earth systems, start with $400 less because they are too smart ability = -$400 at the beginning of the game; +1 to "Random Variation" rolls for all plots owned by the Humanoid
schmede: i get 400$ less in the beginning
Daniel: in the original, planet mule altered a lot
Daniel: auction system etc
schmede: why is it that at the land auction somebody can drive the price by high bidding, than retreat from that bid, but i still got to overbid the highest bid?
Daniel: hehe
WhoosThis: yeah you shouldnt be able to retreat
Daniel: I know
WhoosThis: in my opinion
Daniel: why
WhoosThis: once you move up you are locked in unless the price scrolls
Daniel: or how ;-)....
WhoosThis: it would force a sell
WhoosThis: if one preson moves up
WhoosThis: which would be good for the game
WhoosThis: also the sell land function
WhoosThis: it would be nice if the person selling could be on top
WhoosThis: it would make the feature actually useable
Daniel: first mover, first buyer. except you are starting from below the buy-line
WhoosThis: anyone can move up at any time
schmede: i just hate it how the last guy could block every aution
WhoosThis: but say you move up
WhoosThis: you cant move down, you are kocked off when the price scrolls upwards
schmede: he just needs enough money, without actually spending it
WhoosThis: you move down then
schmede: lets say i have 1000$ and he has 8000$
