Planet Baen: Web Game for free eBooks

[ghostyjack]

I'm about to go on holiday for a week, so will start up my freehold again then. Probably revert my name to the same as I use here, i.e. Ghostyjack.

[travger]

I need several months rest from the intensive playing. To sleep again... perchance to dream... at least visit the beach before the summer ends. But I'm afraid it's too time-consuming to get hooked again (though I want to! Need to!)
Oh, well, it was fun. Good luck to yall and happy gifting!

[weedfreak]

Weedfreak is back in again with the same glove puppets, not sure how long I'll stay active as I have yet to find the fun in the 'game.'

[Ekaros]

I'm not sure if I really understand this game...

[orlok]

I'm back with orlok. Not sure if there is going to be enough going on to make it worthwhile going throug it all again. But then what else would i do with my time...?

[DHNightshadow]

They gifted me a city core. The next round will be good, if I get all the nice things from the core. You can't buy it. Look out for it on level 2

[tilia]

I'm Ululani Nui this time (tilia and Kark in the beta). I wish I could have kept the Kark-freehold, it started getting double surge points before the reset

You need it for the bucks to complete that level... but, beware those who have freeholds of free spirits, as the energy/food deficit will haunt you for several cycles (if not days).

Totalitarians, OTOH, make out better (and had energy projects in level 1, so were already sitting in better shape, if surges were used wisely).

[orlok]

I've gone extreme free-spirit this time. It's because this is supposedly best for the bucks, and when all is said and done, bucks are surely the only thing that counts? You can't do anything without them.

It landed on the wrong grid for me :/

Kaleissin again, energy red. All the assets I can see are "centrist", what about yours?

[mnfe]

Yeah, I'm a free spirit. And now I am in the red for food and energy. A lot in the red. Not an auspicious start.

[cromag]

Unfortunate timing, with my daughter graduating from high school this week, having her final dance school recitals, etc. My people will be neglected, on and off, for a while.

Once the game is back up, I'll send you a bunch of food and stuff to help tide you over.

Staying centrist this time around, but moving the sliders horizontally to dump Bliss and increase Bucks yield every so often. Dug myself a cash hole yesterday evening by unwise spending (14 Bucks left, and an 80% low food Bliss penalty), but that's been straightened out and my people are very happy with 11 Houses of Ill Repute to bring in the money.

But I'm not even touching that 4th Level Pub Row city core unless there are sufficient Pop-absorbing assets to surround it with. The highest I can lay hands upon now are those 2000-Pop Bio Trap factories, and I'd need 12 of them to get the Pub Row to produce 0 and there are only 8 spaces surrounding (and why are people reproducing in a Pub anyway?).

[Crusader]

I'm also starting again, this time as Crusader. I don't know if I'll stick with it though since I got a bit bored with the beta.

Bob did say in the bar, they are all in the moment centrist, they try to figure out the right procent for each team.
