BUMP so we don’t fall off the first page.

Welcome back from the Holiday those of you who were out of town. There was a flurry of deals initially which seems to have tapered off some in the last 24hrs.

Let’s get back to it!

Since 8B was accpepted, I’m going to have to rescind Hal Offer #7.

Sorry for the lapse fellas, busy weekend.
US offer #3; I would like to see Rule 20. Sachertorte, you may see rule slip 2, 10, or 17 (pick one) in exchange.

Us offer #4; I would like to see Rule 3. percypercy, you may see rule slip 2, 10, or 17 (pick one) in exchange.

US offer #5; Doctor Who, I’m in need of an O. You may chose a rule (possibly rule 10?) to view in exchange for that letter.

(Bolding mine)
Heh…if this were a sci-fi movie board, I might pick up some points there.

Hal, are you interested in making a deal for your U Card? We don’t have any rules to offer each other. How about…

For Hal Briston, You get my T card in exchange for your U card.

percypercy, since the thread is moving and you might miss it, my offer to you still stands:

Priceguy offer #9: I offer percypercy two F cards and a look at rule 7 for an I card and a U card.

Oh, now we’re going to battle for stuff… a new level of complexity to the game:

Yoohoo! percypercy I also have an offer on the table for you. And it’s way better than dumb old Priceguy’s as you already know from your rules knowledge.

USCDiver Offer #18: for percypercy; I will give you a P card and a look at Rule 8 in exchange for a U card and a look at Rule 14

Sorry… I already have U in my “do not trade” file, so it’ll take a lot more than a consonent that I already hold to get me to part with the rarest vowel in the game.

I can see what you’re going for so I know what you don’t want to give up. So, let me make a pair of proposals. They’re admittedly steep, but that U Card is a valuable commodity:

Hal Offer #9A, for USCDiver: My U Card in exchange for your C, J, K and Y Cards.
Hal Offer #9B, for USCDiver: My U Card in exchange for any two of the C, J, K or Y Cards (your choice) and either Rule Slip #2 or #8 (your choice – and to clarify, that would be for the slip itself, NOT a look at the slip).

Uncommon Sense, I notice you’re trying to get some rules. I have several that you haven’t seen yet. How’s about:

USCDiver offer #20: for Uncommon Sense You get a look at Rules #8 and Rule #19 in exchange for your Z card

Ouch those are steep! Ok, I got another couple of deals pending with looks at Rule 8 involved, so let me see if I get a bite on those before I trade it away…

I’m also not sure how the trade of a Rule card (as opposed to a look) will affect the game in the long run…

I need to contemplate a bit.

Understood…lemme know.

Now then, I see that percypercy is online. Care to make a deal?
Hal Offer #10 for percypercy: I’ll give you a B Card and a look at Rule #5 in exchange for an H Card and a look at Rule #14.

I’m open for counteroffers, percypercy. If you want a P card, I’ve got one.

Highly unlikely,
(US Offer/Counter #6) unless you can get your hands on the Rule 20 slip, then I might trade looks at Rules 8, 15, 19, and 20 for the Z card.
It’s the only thing I’ve got man!

US offer #7; NAF1138, A look at Rule 20 in exchange for a look at a Rule of mine (your choice, one).

So it’s rules you’re looking for, Uncommon Sense? Well, how’s this sound –

Hal Offer #10 for Uncommon Sense: I’ll give up a peek at Rule Slips #5, #11 and #15 in exchange for a look at Rule Slip #14 and an N Card.

unfortunately, I can’t do that at this point.

US offer #8; Billyb0b, For one of your A’s, a look at two of the Rules you have not seen yet, namely 10 and 14.

Okay, I’m curious about something.

We’re maybe five and a half days in, many of those being the memorial day weekend.

Do a majority of players still want to stick to my original schedule? Or is there any sort of unspoken feelings that setting an earlier deadline might make the game more fun? I just sort of figured that this was a good time to be asking.

To refresh your memory, from the kickoff:
