Round 1 of 12

dynadan: big casino on the strip

Chuckie Chuck: Who is running Torrent? Someone is lagging a lot

dynadan: teth i think...but it should improve as game progresses....1st round selection is always the slowest

Round 2 of 12

dynadan: so do you guys like the new land auction change?

Paulie 64: this will be my 1st game with it

Paulie 64: does it work?

Chuckie Chuck: it is beneficial

dynadan: i like it a lot but some people are trying to defend old running up way

Round 3 of 12

Paulie 64: those max outs were lame...

Paulie 64: when everyone had cash too

Round 4 of 12

dynadan: ya i know

dynadan: but people like rhodan and brad are defending them

dynadan: saying its some sort of strategu instead of just a waste of time

dynadan: i think the way it is now it may be worth is to sell land late in game now

Chuckie Chuck: Can't say it didn't have ups along with the downsides, but the problem is, someone gets a few decent buys at the beginning, and no one else has a change to even the score.

Chuckie Chuck: This definately does help in that respect

dynadan: requires a lot of thinking to come up with what is right price to pay when everyone gets money

Paulie 64: well then it's better now. periord. no brainer...

dynadan: plus have to add in keeping a plot away from someone else also to keep them from getting 12 bonus by paying more than it is worth to you

dynadan: seems to be split opinions between the night players and day players heh

Chuckie Chuck: Trick is to know how much it will earn you buy the end of the game when you decide how much to pay for it, logically, each round the land becomes worth less in terms of what it will bring in.

Paulie 64: those guys are total land whores, so that makes sense

dynadan: they just have their set early game strategies and are afraid of change

dynadan: they all want exact duplicates of original....and while i think the original was great...i would like the best possible game they can make it

Paulie 64: there were already 3 versions of this game though, lol

Paulie 64: brb

Paulie 64: okak, sry

Round 5 of 12

dynadan: if you mean atari c64 nintendo then ya no wonder no one agrees about how original played heh

dynadan: lol

dynadan: you nuts

Paulie 64: dude that was cool as shit!

Paulie 64: love the change!!!

Paulie 64: much much better

Chuckie Chuck: Yeah, you have to back down clear to the starting price to get out of it

dynadan: only bad thing that i see is that everyone should start running up at beginning so they can be relevant to price if people don't do what they expect...but is a lot better i think

Paulie 64: keeps it honest, no doubt about it

dynadan: make sure to visit forums and vote on it

Paulie 64: yeah, but you can play games now. before it was a wash with everyone having cash

dynadan: rhodan is pushing a change that will end up making the price move up slower....but it will end up letting the host or the people with the lowest ping win land auctions

Round 6 of 12

Paulie 64: i'll check out the forums, really it's so much more honest now

Teth: fuck you RND

Teth: fuck you

Teth: sorry. RND()

dynadan: haha ya

Teth: I used to write C64 BASIC

dynadan: i sacrificed like you did for that round too teth

Round 7 of 12

Teth: MAKE HIM PAY

dynadan: damn you paulie :P

Chuckie Chuck: figures

Paulie 64: your fault for bringing the fight out in me Dan

dynadan: haha question is did it help me or hurt me? :P

Chuckie Chuck: I expected that

Paulie 64: still all good for you

Chuckie Chuck: Dynadan got the lead, for now

dynadan: ok so it hurt me then lol

dynadan: now land auctions will be fun instead of over for the game

Round 8 of 12

Chuckie Chuck: So no we have people that just pay to much to begin with

Chuckie Chuck: lol

Paulie 64: damn that turn

dynadan: ya i played bad that turn as well

Paulie 64: awesome game right now though

Chuckie Chuck: close game so far

dynadan: how many plot are left?

dynadan: i want to make sure i don't press button if i am in 1st and only 3 plots left

Paulie 64: not sure

dynadan: thats a crazy move teth

dynadan: anybody remember how many plots?

dynadan: nm

dynadan: i can count

dynadan: hehe

Round 9 of 12

Chuckie Chuck: eh

Chuckie Chuck: I didn't get mine

Chuckie Chuck: I hit the button

Chuckie Chuck: oh well

dynadan: hmm i don't know thats weird

dynadan: i say we all don't press button next turn so he gets it

Chuckie Chuck: maybe I get lucky and get the free plot, they took that one away from me earlier, lol

Paulie 64: you must have lifted up off the spacebar at the end

Paulie 64: always hold it on the last land plot grabs

dynadan: oh ya always hold down space button on all land choice if you don't

Paulie 64: brb

dynadan: its sort of an art form in earlier rounds to hold it down but then let go right when you see land has been chosen

dynadan: so you don't acciidentally choose next land if you don't get it

Chuckie Chuck: yeah, just butterfingered it I think

Paulie 64: k

dynadan: r
