Preppie Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 This game went horribly wrong. I actualy missed out on on a land plot then the pirates came in month 8 after I'd save my previous months crystite, and to my horror those damn pirates came back on month 11 - aaarrgghhh! score = 25477 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played as Red Mechtron yesterday, decided to again try and do something with Smithore - failed as usual (stupid Mechtrons as usual) but still a respectable 28,612 in the end, colony 86,279.

carlsson Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 You'll have to play some Hunt the Wumpus with the spider, perhaps it will pay you money for letting it go. Or it will summon a bat lizard to bite you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Second last game for me, this time playing as the spheroid. For a long while I was the only crystite miner, and although things didn't go great, it looked like a round with some potential. In round 7 I lost two crystite mules, first from a delicate three plot switch action where I missed the target, and then a planetquake following.

carlsson Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I conclude this M.U.L.E. tournament with a humanoid game that I was almost certain I had lost before the last round without any trading, but somehow I managed to defeat green mechtron by 57 points. The total score is not that great, but at least I ended with a win. Worth noticing is this is my second game in a row without crystite pirates!

zzip Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 These scores are distressing me! I hope I'm not losing my Mule mojo. In the Packer game, the Wampus wouldn't settle down and I kept missing him. Yeah Yeah, that's it, I blame the Wampus! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzip Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 And my last two games. I don't think I ever even played the Humanoid before, but I managed to get the best colony score out of the bunch, and miss being First Founder by less than 100! Every wampus counts! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Yeah. TRBB's result tables seem to have collapsed due to the forum upgrade but he'll certainly rebuild them in no time once he gets to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to look into installing a proper table plugin for the editor, which should make managing High Score Clubs much easier. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Not sure what he did. My code blocks from before the forum upgrade remained proper so it could be a PEBCAK issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Wrong thread to speculate, but I wonder if it could be something with CR vs CR + LF during input though I would assume both the old and new forum software translated such linefeeds into an uniform format before storing the posts in the database.

+therealbountybob Posted June 28, 2019 Author Share Posted June 28, 2019 OK the tables are back (I went back to text in courier font so all is well, I'm fine with this way) I've added bluecat's latest score 37,000 and some change to follow! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecat Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I had a good go as a purple Mechtron on Wednesday. Scored 37,974 and it was a good colony too at 91,208. For once I was pleased with my grouping of plots ??? Then today I played as a purple Packer, a character I never choose, and didn't do so well. Scored 29,118 and the colony was 75,690. My plots were awful and I was short of energy, which never normally happens. Oh well - Spheroid next. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 Tables UPDATED I will get another game in soon. It looks like Preppie needs too great goes to have a chance of pipping the leader, I think the battle is for 2nd and 3rd places between the rest of us!

Preppie Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Hope I'm not too late. I rarely played human back in the eighties, now I know why. Got a free plot on turn 1 then bought 2 more on turn 4 for under 200 each, but that timer goes fast and I was chasing the game all the way.

bluecat Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Played as a purple Spheroid & had quite a good go & a good colony - elegant estates! 2 pirates on consecutive goes & 2 fires. Scored 33,346 & colony was 100,318. Just Humanoid to go now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecat Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 That was really hard! So little time as a purple Humanoid! I managed to win wirh 28,302 and the colony was OK at 86,313. Thought I'd done well getting both the meteorite plots only to lose one ? Really enjoyed playing this tournament. Definitely prefer playing 3 Mechtrons rather than 2 and TRBB ? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+therealbountybob Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Played as Packer tonight, my usual favourite if I'm not playing as Humanoid, reasonably good game with a few mistakes: keeping the crystite at 48 after selling it at 60, the pirates of course then showed up, should have got another plot, kept energy empire too long etc Red Packer 32,150 Colony 101,687 "Elegant Estates " no less Better do those tables now...
