To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.
I'd be up for a game if you don't have enough from Discord AND you don't mind a newbie.

I don't mind trading if this is a pro game or if you had called dibs in Discord. I'm just reading the rules now and plan to bankrupt every company I touch. :shobon:

I am by no means a pro. I've played one game of this that went on for 8 hours or so once as we struggled through the rules. Go ahead - I'm fine spectating.

Right, let's get going with the ISR.

Turn Order -

Tekopo -> taser rates -> Fat Samurai -> MisterBear -> Dancer

Rules Available HERE. We'll be following the Classic rules.

For the unfamiliar - in the ISR you can either buy the private with the lowest face value, as long as it has no bids, or bid on another private (bidding it's current value plus $5). If the lowest valued company has bids on it already then an auction occurs between the bidders for that company. Simples!

I'll be tracking bids and buys in the below chart.



To make (my) life easier, please bold your post if it contains game orders.

Have fun! Tekopo to start...

As an aside - are tables like the above useful? ugly? could be better? just fine?

They may not be particularly attractive, but they make the information as dense and clear as possible, and that's what we need in this game.

Buy the SVNRR

Dancer

Unless I'm mistaken, this basically ends the round right? After you buy it, all those auctions will happen, and then the B&O is left. And then taser rates has first dibs on that one?

Yep, we just need to do the auctions now.

Isn't that yours by default? Or am reading the rules wrong?

Pass on D&H

And another question: What's an SV? A Private Company? (As per C-2.2.3)

It's SVNRR - the Mayfair version likes shorter initials.

I bid on C&StL in the time since the last table, so I take it now for 50.

Current state -



Auction for M&H between taser rates, myself and Dancer.

I've got the highest bid at current, so I pass and it's up to Dancer to increase bid, or pass.
