US offer to buy; Sachertorte, I’ll buy rules 4 and 7 and letters L and T and D.
19 points?
Rule Sales (4 and 7) are accepted : 4 points
Uncommon Sense, I am limiting players to buying one consonant and one vowel. As I am out of stock for vowels, I will allow you to buy two consonants (10 points). Please pick the two that you would like.
Sales of L T and D are suspended until Uncommon Sense makes his (Her?) choice since sachertorte industries only has one register.
Offer nesta #6: I will show Uncommon Sense rule #11 in exchange for seeing rule #2 and a C card.
Rule #11 is a good one.
I’m approving this much, assuming that Uncommon Sense doesn’t want to be too sticky about purchasing that whole bit at once. PM has been sent.

A somewhat strange peculiarity has come to light.
Back in post 168, Hal Briston and percypercy traded two letters and rule views. In a cosmic fluke, Hal looked at rule slip #6 upside down, and instead of reading the inverted letters correctly, he was visited by a presentiment of rule #9.
This has been confirmed and will be reflected in the updates from here on. If Hal wants to finally know rule 6, he’ll have to trade for it again.
Thank you for your time. Security precautions will be employed to prevent such psychic phenomena from manifesting in the game again, as far as this is possible.
USCDiver Offer #21 for NAF1138, I will trade you my K and P cards for your U and R cards
Sounds lovely, but I can’t. I have no need for a k and I need my U and my R.
But let me know if there is anything else you would like to work out.
Ok, thanks NAF
USCDiver Offer #22: For nesta, in exchange for your Z and H cards, I will let you see Rules 2 and 19
Since I just realized there are proposals of mine floating out there in which players could effectively get rules from me without showing me anything I don’t already know, I think this would be a good time to withdraw all active Hal Offers until I can get things reorganized.
I’d have warning flags on trades like that Hal, but being organized is always good.
To those of you who have played this game before. How does it differ when playing in person?
Are trades made outloud to the group or in a one on one conversation? Is there a public record of what each person has available or is that only available on request?
:eek:
So Hal doesn’t know Rule 6?! HE DOESN’T KNOW RULE 6?
Well, I might be inclined to show it to you, Hal. Make me an offer I can’t refuse!
