Jamski says:
shout when you want crawlers
Jamski says:
(still no farms, only forests as far as the eye can see)
John says:
farms?
John says:
why do you want farms
Jamski says:
if we ever get the PTS each base needs one
John says:
no they don't
Jamski says:
or a nut bonus
Jamski says:
sure?
John says:
or a monolith
Jamski says:
yes
Jamski says:
but at least 6 food for 3 citizens?
John says:
everybase has a monolith, nut, or farm
Jamski says:
every?
Jamski says:
nice
Jamski says:
I didn't check
John says:
kommunizma city has a farm
John says:
all the others have nuts or monoliths
Jamski says:
forget it then
John says:
crawlers
Jamski says:
although without condesners...

Vev has been added to the conversation.

Jamski says:
hey Vev
Jamski says:
How are the crawlers doing John?
John says:
Hrmm just thinking atm
Jamski says:
about?
John says:
I think I lost us 1 EC next turn
Jamski says:
a whole ec
Jamski says:
**** man
John says:
*nod*
Jamski says:
we'd better submit to the Uni
Vev says:
don't you know compounding interest over 300 years is a lot
Jamski says:

John says:
indeed it is
Jamski says:
but... we have a planned economy with 0% intrest
John says:
actually it's more than 1 EC
John says:
because I remembered it affects the rush buying
John says:
oh well
John says:
let me calculate how much I lost us
Jamski says:
what can ya do now?
John says:
nothing really
John says:
unless we want a reload message
John says:
I should have checked for forest growth
Jamski says:
oh well
Jamski says:
don't worry about it now
John says:
we lost 3 ECs in total
Jamski says:
we can live with it
John says:
*nod*
Jamski says:
send a message to the Drones asking to borrow 4
John says:
okay I guess the turn is done now
Jamski says:
k
John says:
lol
Vev says:
how close do you normally cut close to the EC reserve?
John says:
they don't have any money
John says:
this turn 3ECs remaining
John says:
next turn we should have about 21ECs remaining
John says:
following turn about 50ECs
John says:
and following turn about 90ECs
Jamski says:
that's nice
John says:
yeah the cities start building the crawlers faster than we can rush buy them
John says:
and we get stockpile everytime
John says:
darn it I lost us 3 ECs
Vev says:
That is going to haunt you for the rest of your life John.
John says:
very funny
Jamski says:
I'll keep mentioning it
John says:
heh
Jamski says:
John, remember those 3ecs you lost us, and now we're 3ecs short for rushing the cloning vats
Jamski says:
and the Uni get it in a turn
John says:
uh huh
Jamski says:
ITS ALLY OUR FAULT
John says:
okay well nothing to do be done now
Jamski says:
um, put the space in the wrong place
John says:
I guess I should upload the turn
John says:
Jamski can you upload this whole conversation
Jamski says:
yep
Jamski says:
will do
Jamski says:
any last words?
Jamski says:
Johnnie?
Jamski says:
Vevvie?
Vev says:
I'll like a doughnut please
John says:
Jamski isn't getting that little island named after him anymore
John says:
what were you calling it again?
Vev says:
Isle of Subjugation
Jamski says:
Isle of Man
Vev says:
Penisula of Enlightenment
Jamski says:
Penis Fun Whoreville Island Theme Park Land
Vev says:
That's the one!
Vev says:
It was on the tip of my tongue all the time
Jamski says:
OK, boys time to post it up.

-Jam

[Snowflake]

Thanks very much for the creativity Spamski, Kodyfest and Vevovastik!

[Kody]

Buster sighting, and turn is currently in his hands.

Jamski, and anyone else that is on should get online for a turnchat.

[Kody]

Is anyone around at all?

[Snowflake]

John says:
hi
John says:
do you want to do the turn chat with me?
John says:
Honghu?
HongHu says:
hello
John says:
hi there
John says:
turn chat?
HongHu says:
oh no ! lol
HongHu says:
where was spamski
John says:
huh?
John says:
he's asleep
HongHu says:
I know I mean before
John says:
he wasn't online
HongHu says:
hmmm
HongHu says:
We could try if you think I can help in anything
John says:
well I'm considering building the PTS this turn
John says:
and gaining the bonus workers
HongHu says:
pts?!
HongHu says:
I didn't know that it is the plan
John says:
well considering
HongHu says:
did we already got the other two?
John says:
nope
HongHu says:
so why are you considering pts now?
John says:
basically the current plan is PTS HGP next turn
HongHu says:
oh
John says:
then VW either in 2136 or 2137
HongHu says:
so both sp in one turn
HongHu says:
hold
John says:
I was considering PTS this turn
HongHu says:
baby
HongHu says:
ok now
John says:
but I've realised I haven't set it up correctly
HongHu says:
why?
John says:
I needed at least 1 turn previous to do that.
HongHu says:
why?
John says:
because it takes time to move the crawlers into position
HongHu says:
crawlers for nut?
John says:
crawlers for rushing
John says:
and for minerals
HongHu says:
oh i got it
HongHu says:
so they are not in position
HongHu says:
but we could build hgp?
John says:
we're not in optimal position
HongHu says:
hmmm
John says:
we can build the PTS this turn
John says:
but we lose out I think.
HongHu says:
well I think we may want to build hgp before we want to do pts
John says:
I should have thought about building the PTS earlier
HongHu says:
?
John says:
it gives us more energy definitely
HongHu says:
let me make sure I understand you
John says:
we also might have gotten biogenetics 1 turn earlier.
HongHu says:
you were not considering get pts prior to get hgp?
John says:
yeah
HongHu says:
you were?
John says:
PTS gives us more workers
John says:
I was considering that
HongHu says:
you know that hgp is needed for the drones?
John says:
we only get 2 drones
HongHu says:
for each new base
John says:
and I could have set two doctors
John says:
*shake*
John says:
nope only 2 drones
HongHu says:
do we have enough police and enough food
John says:
overall
John says:
*nod*
John says:
just the crawlers aren't in the right positions
HongHu says:
hmmm
John says:
I should have thought about it last turn.
John says:
If I had we would have had a nice bonus
HongHu says:
what's the different bt pts now hgp next and hgp now pts next
John says:
at the moment it would probably be losing a few minerals and gaining a few energy
John says:
HGP doesn't do anything for us.
John says:
not until we build the PTS
John says:
after we build the PTS the HGP frees up two doctors.
HongHu says:
what are pop in each base/
HongHu says:
2?
HongHu says:
3?
John says:
mostly 2
John says:
there's two bases with pop 1
HongHu says:
so if we build pts they'll all become 3
HongHu says:
are we ready?
HongHu says:
police, nut?
John says:
nope
John says:
need two doctors in the size 1 bases
HongHu says:
that's why I said hgp is needed before pts
John says:
and crawlers aren't in optimal positions
John says:
why?
John says:
PTS gives a better bonus than the HGP
HongHu says:
with hgp you could use one more worker
HongHu says:
when you build pts
HongHu says:
in everybase
John says:
when you build PTS all size 3 bases and smaller get -1 drone
HongHu says:
that's true too
John says:
so it's only the size 1 bases that might riot
HongHu says:
that would mean -2 with pts and hgp
John says:
if we don't look after them.
HongHu says:
and nobody should riot
HongHu says:
if we don't have 2 police
John says:
we only need 1 police
HongHu says:
and after the 8th base
HongHu says:
and after we build more bases
John says:
have you run the simulator?
HongHu says:
new base will start with a drone
John says:
it's all in there
HongHu says:
no haven't got time
John says:
after the 13th base all new bases will start with a drone
HongHu says:
are you saying that pts this turn hgp next
HongHu says:
exactly
John says:
between 8-14th
HongHu says:
yes
HongHu says:
phone
John says:
there's a probability
John says:
well I'm saying I should have planned for the PTS this turn, and the HGP next turn
HongHu says:
so what's the current situation
HongHu says:
pts and hgp both together next turn?
HongHu says:
in two bases?
John says:
yeah probably
John says:
unless we go for PTS this turn
HongHu says:
ok it's trade off then
HongHu says:
if we get it now and lose some min
John says:
but we get more energy
HongHu says:
or get it next turn and lose some new pop
John says:
if we get it next turn we lose some energy
John says:
we don't lose any new pop
HongHu says:
only energy?
HongHu says:
well we lose the instant growth to 3 this turn
John says:
yeah
John says:
PTS gives us some nice energy
John says:
but the instant growth only effects energy and minerals
HongHu says:
population I mean
John says:
but we lose some minerals from rushing it now
HongHu says:
I know
John says:
but population is only really minerals and energy for us.
HongHu says:
well isn't that all that it is/
HongHu says:
nut is for growth and growth is for min and energy
John says:
uh huh
HongHu says:
so compare the two possibilities
HongHu says:
which loses us more?
John says:
but what is the balance for minerals and energy
HongHu says:
and I don't think we have any risk losing pts if we don't build it now right
John says:
nope I doubt we do
HongHu says:
depend on which is our emphasis now
HongHu says:
do we need research faster?
John says:
I think we lose about 7 minerals if we build it now
HongHu says:
which I thought I do
John says:
hrmm
John says:
let me check the research difference
HongHu says:
ok
John says:
difference is about 3-5 research points I think
John says:
we're getting 25 per turn
HongHu says:
each year or only one year
John says:
if I had planned for PTS this turn.
John says:
we would have gotten a mineral and energy bonus
John says:
for one year, because we're building PTS next turn anyway
HongHu says:
then it may not be that important I guess
John says:
yeah but if I had planned correctly
HongHu says:
I wouldn't mind much either way
John says:
we would be looking at more minerals and more energy overall.
HongHu says:
don't be too hard to yourself
HongHu says:
I don't think the 7 minerals are that important any way
HongHu says:
I mean they are important
HongHu says:
but if we have to lose it
HongHu says:
it's ok
John says:
for now it's better to continue with our current plans I think
HongHu says:
ok
HongHu says:
I would agree
John says:
so I'll post the turn
HongHu says:
ok
John says:
can you copy this into the turn chat?
HongHu says:
ok I will
HongHu says:
not much new info any way
HongHu says:
ttyl then
John says:
okay

John says:
Feckin and "The hive" has been set to colony pods.
John says:
I mean Feckin and Jamski Clove has been set to colony pods
John says:
Alternative Personality John say: when are those colony pods going to be planted
John says:
The feckin colony pod is going to be planted in turn 2136
John says:
The Jamski clove colony pod gets planted in turn 2138

[Kody]

We had a nice turn chat for 2136, but nobody saved it.

[Kody]

Prepare for turnchat. Buster usually gets his turns done pretty fast.

[Kody]

John says:
hello

Vev has been added to the conversation.

John says:
turn chat?
Vev says:
me mark and prepare
John says:
chairman?
Voltaire says:
Sorry I was AFK
Voltaire says:
I am indeed here
Vev says:
hi
Voltaire says:
Alright we'll get started with the turnchat whenever everyone's ready
John says:
okay
John says:
well vev isn't going to particiate
John says:
there appears to be a problem
John says:
hello?
Voltaire says:
Problem?
John says:
cycon began construction of the VW
John says:
the question is whether they have finished it via an instant build or not
Voltaire says:
Hmm
Voltaire says:
Assuming they have not...
Voltaire says:
How soon can we get the VW?
John says:
now
John says:
this was the planned turn
Voltaire says:
Now assuming they have completed it via an instant build
Voltaire says:
if we build it, how many minerals do we lose
Voltaire says:
?
John says:
hrmm let me check
Voltaire says:
and what other SP's can we switch to?
John says:
CN
John says:
or ME
John says:
drones said they'll gift us the ME if we fail the VW build
Voltaire says:
Go for it, I don't think we have too much to lose, if we fail in the VW we at least get the ME as compensation
John says:
okay
John says:
another thing
Voltaire says:
and the CyCon may have not completed
Voltaire says:
it
Voltaire says:
yes?
John says:
apparently pirates have met the drones
John says:
although it seems strange
John says:
because it wasn't the same scout that is going around our shores
Voltaire says:
Hmm
Voltaire says:
Well this gives us less leverage with the pirates
John says:
in what way?
Voltaire says:
now getting the comunication frequencies of the CyCon or another faction will be more difficult
John says:
buster has a pending treaty
John says:
hrmm okay
Voltaire says:
Speaking of Buster
Voltaire says:
Any word on the permipact?
John says:
it's finalised
Voltaire says:
Alright
Voltaire says:
perfect
John says:
hrmm okay
John says:
anyway looks like hook will be difficult to negotiate with
John says:
have you had any word from the pirates
Voltaire says:
None
Voltaire says:
And I've sent small reminders over PM that we have negotiations pending
Voltaire says:
brb keep talking
John says:
and the party RSVP
John says:
there's nobody else to talk with
Voltaire says:
back
Voltaire says:
I wonder where all the Pirates are
Voltaire says:
I've PMed both Flubber and Herculese
Voltaire says:
no response yet
John says:
read pirate negotiations in CGN
John says:
I still can't figure out how their schooner got all the way around our shore so fast
John says:
it's not possible
John says:
unless they had a 2nd ship
Voltaire says:
That is entirely possible, the 2nd ship
John says:
probably
John says:
oh well it doesn't matter
John says:
oh yeah better change Xenobanana back to Voltaire again
Voltaire says:
lol
John says:
interesting thing
Voltaire says:
Well I've read the CGN posts
John says:
apparently the pirates did a reload
Voltaire says:
the problem is if CyCon-Pirate relations are any inidication
Voltaire says:
the Pirates will not give a damn if we're annoyed with them
Voltaire says:
but i agree
Voltaire says:
we should distunctly express displeasure with their actions
Voltaire says:
furthermore
Voltaire says:
actually
Voltaire says:
why not let them trade with the Drones?
Voltaire says:
let us play with their minds a little bit
Voltaire says:
they're unaware of the permipact
Voltaire says:
and it really doesn't matter which one of us gets the tech
John says:
well we can't really stop them
John says:
it does kindof matter
John says:
if we can mobility
John says:
then we can get flexibility faster
John says:
and the drones will have less problems with tech availability
Voltaire says:
One suggestion I have if the Pirates in the end refuse to trade at all
Voltaire says:
Once we meet the other factions
Voltaire says:
Propose a embargo on trade with the Pirates
John says:
that sounds rather evil
Voltaire says:
lol
John says:
and probably won't happen
Voltaire says:
Don't discount it
Voltaire says:
but you're right
Voltaire says:
no way of enforcing it
John says:
proposing an embargo would make us seem evil too
John says:
and it won't work
John says:
so there's no point
Voltaire says:
what about joint military action against the pirates? they pose a threat to our sea traffic as well as that of all other land factions
John says:
it would only work if we're already on pact or better relations with other factions
John says:
you see if someone goes aggressive on them
Voltaire says:
well our relations with the CyCon look promising
Voltaire says:
and as you pointed out, if Archaic is out of the picture in the University
Voltaire says:
we may well be able to work something out with them
John says:
well I don't know yet
John says:
but I think the university decided it's better not to have archaic as leader
John says:
I think we should ask them in the private forum.
John says:
basically innocently say "is archaic still leader of the university?"
John says:
honghu should do it, cause she's the kind of person that speaks her mind
John says:
it basically says we might be interested in some kind of alliance, or at least we don't intend to attack
John says:
hrmm too risky maybe?
Voltaire says:
I think not
Voltaire says:
it would seem but a simple question coming from honghu
Voltaire says:
besides
John says:
but it would make the university think
Voltaire says:
the other factions have stated who their leaders are in public
John says:
If the answer is GT is running the show
John says:
then we should get HongHu to congratulate GT
John says:
make it a private thingy with just one hive member so it doesn't attract too much attention
Voltaire says:
yes
John says:
but HongHu congratulating GT will hopefully make them realise we don't have ill-will
John says:
with archiac out of the picture
Voltaire says:
lol, let us hope so
Voltaire says:
Tass has done wonders for relations between our factions
John says:
uh huh
John says:
hrmm so post the preturn update
Voltaire says:
yup
Voltaire says:
we're going ahead with the VW
Voltaire says:
and the Drones have met the Pirates
Voltaire says:
not many other segnificant updates
John says:
can you copy and paste the first set of instructions from the preturn
Voltaire says:
Where is it?
John says:
in turn update thread

Voltaire says:

John says:

Voltaire says:
the Preturn moves 2137
John says:
the reason I'm asking is because I don't want to constantly switch windows
Voltaire says:
ah
Voltaire says:
alright
Voltaire says:
my mistake
John says:
MSN has always on top
John says:
which is useful

John says:
okay I've finished doing everything and double checking
John says:
I post the turn now?
Voltaire says:
Indeed do so
Voltaire says:
And let us hope the CyCon have not completed the VW.
John says:
so is rokossovky still around?
John says:
or he's just here in spirit?
Voltaire says:
He's still around, he told me he would be 'back' toward the end of this month after he settles into university life.
Voltaire says:
Though I don't know why he is so busy
Voltaire says:
I mean he's only doing History and Sociology
Voltaire says:
It's not like he's in anything hard
John says:
heh
John says:
it's all the extra activites
John says:
like the table tenis club, and gun rights club etc.
Voltaire says:
lol
John says:
about the turn chats
Voltaire says:
Yes?
John says:
without Jamski and without Rokossovky
John says:
it's getting harder to find people to do the turn chats with.
John says:
HongHu is usually busy and doesn't get on MSN when the turns are around.
John says:
it's just her timetable I think
John says:
Also Micha and EZhino seem to have lost interest in the game again
Voltaire says:
Well I hope I'm around usualy, though it depends on the day and time when the turn is posted.
John says:
*nod*
John says:
you're usually on in the morning after the turn is posted.
John says:
If buster posts before I go to bed....
John says:
so have you considered anything to write for hive description
John says:
lets see 12 hour policy, where after 12 hours I don't need to find a 2nd person for the turnchat?
Voltaire says:
That seems perfectly fine
John says:
About the hive description
Voltaire says:
And not yet, I know what I want to do, except I haven't had the time to do it yet... i've been out of the house all weekend
John says:
do you have any idea on either section
John says:
I'm thinking for the roleplay part you should do a section definiately.
Voltaire says:
I intend to make it in character.
John says:
*nod*
Voltaire says:
I will also see if I can get the other factions to contribute
John says:
the 2nd part explaining the real stuff that happens I haven't figured out really
John says:
they've said they will
John says:
well all except for the drones
Voltaire says:
I want to make it into a sort of CIA world factbook with in character information about all the factions
John says:
are you sure you want to organise that?
John says:
it'll be difficult co-ordinating several factions to confirm to a similar style
John says:
conform rather
John says:
that's why I just suggested they write what they want, and we write or own description
Voltaire says:
Indeed I would want to
Voltaire says:
I know the stuff about the Hive already (I'm the one that wrote the damn constitution)
Voltaire says:
I'll talk to the other faction leaders about bits of information like that
Voltaire says:
I know the CyCon will cooperate
Voltaire says:
As for the others
Voltaire says:
they all seem farely inactive
Voltaire says:
if i cannot get anything out of them
Voltaire says:
i'll leave their profiles blank
John says:
okay then
John says:
I'll leave that up to you
John says:
although a CIA sort of profile is distinctly hive
John says:
and the other factions may decide they want to put something closer to their kind of roleplay
Voltaire says:
true
Voltaire says:
Well if nothing else we can complie our own CIA profile of the other factions
Voltaire says:
and they can do likewise for themselves
Voltaire says:
DFI Planet Factbook
Voltaire says:
I'll think of a more creative name later
Voltaire says:
for now that will be the working title
John says:
okay
John says:
be careful
John says:
because other factions may decide we're trying to assert our will on them
John says:
like what happened with the one faction one vote polls that jamski did
Voltaire says:
well it's all fun and games
Voltaire says:
i will try to be sensitive
Voltaire says:
i'll consult them beforehand
John says:
if there's resistance
John says:
we'll go for my original plan?
Voltaire says:
original plan?
John says:
yeah
John says:
well what I had planned was, we write a roleplay section on ourselves, and also a description of ourselves as we really are.
John says:
the roleplay section will give a glimpse of the IC story, and show people possibly what kind of characters would fit in.
John says:
so far on the roleplay story we have, most of our members are doing alot of conspircy

Couch Commander has left the conversation.

John says:
I'm doing my own little thing which is more human condition and drama
Voltaire says:
alright we can do that as well
Voltaire says:
except
Voltaire says:
we run into the same problem as with the factbook
John says:
what is that?
Voltaire says:
since the other factions may not participate
Voltaire says:
granted that is not our problem in such a case
John says:
then it's their problem
John says:
they lose out on the new members
John says:
we'll write a really brief summary of what we know of them
Voltaire says:
Is Googlie still around?
John says:
yeah
John says:
but he's gone into stealth mode
Voltaire says:
I'd like him to do the factbook enteries for the AI
John says:
Ahh okay
John says:
try and do a public forum vote on the issue
John says:
it'll be good for ACDG activity
Vev says:
anyone noticed the strategic observations?
Voltaire says:
Alright I'll do a public forum vote on it, but frankly we vote on too many things on the public forum, I will go ahead with the Hive portion of it regardless of everyone's opinion (though I cannot imagine why people would be opposed, except maybe perhaps because they do not want to do the work)

[Kody]

Turnchat in 9 hours time.

Be there, or you will be put to use for pop booming purposes.

Next turn we find out what exactly is the status of the SPs.

[Jamski]

I'll be there.

And isn't pop-booming purposes basically being fprced to have masses of sex?

-Jam

[Snowflake]

You mean like more than three sexes?

[Jamski]

Male sex
Female sex
Insects
