Sweet still plenty of time to get those last minute deals in.

303

To be clear, this was the posted end time. I was re-posting because you didn’t know when it was. I’m not extending the time or anything like that. No special treatment for you. [Don’t take that the wrong way, but something tells me you will. :wink: ]

304

**Digger offer30; Antinor I’ll trade you 1 pink conversation heart and one red conversation heart for you pink rose and 2 white roses **

305

ok, I have a deal for you pede, one that is highly mutually beneficial. I know you have no reason to trust me per se, but I haven’t screwed anyone over in the game yet, and I don’t plan to start now.

NAF offer pedescribe1: I will give you rule six and my forever yours heart, in exchange for your red rose and immunity from the forever yours heart.

Let me explain fully what this offer is before you respond. The forever yours heart is a weapon, but by itself isn’t worth anything. For it to be of any value, you have to have either rule 6 OR the box of chocolates. Because you would have both (after the trade), it will give you the ability to take 12 points off any other player’s score, while simultaneously adding six points to your own score. Right now you are the only person in the game who can actually gain points while at the same time using the heart as a weapon to take 12 off someone else.

The rose is worth exactly 8 points to me, has no value for you and the immunity keeps me in the game because I would hope you use the heart on Oredigger as he is currently far and away the points leader in the game. I think this is not only a fair trade, it is actually slanted slightly in your favor, but only slightly.

What do you say?

306

Yeah, I think pede and I overbid for our items. Haggle veterans, how am I doing for my first try at this game?

pede, there’s not a whole lot I can do about you holding rule 10 hostage, but I can try:
Ben 15: Will show pedescribe rule 3 in exchange for pede giving me one copy of rule 10.

307

Wow.

NAF is just completely throwing aside discretion there, ain’t he?

I mean wow. What other game can you explain your moves, 3 moves out?

Here I was, thinking the game was going sideways. Looks like we are going Zig Zag.

308

A comment in general, the game is better when the timing [by the Mod :frowning: ] is better, and all players are fully active.

However, I think you are getting the “good hurt” that haggle brings. :smiley:

*And that’s why you **WILL **come back for more. *It’s why I decided to not wait for Chrisk anymore.

309

Just as a quick note to everyone before they jump all over helping NAF to screw me over. I just reran the numbers and without seeing rule 10 NAF and I are currently tied and he’s go a 12 point swing coming his was at the end of the game.

Maybe someone with rule 10, hi Pede, can clarify but I don’t see how I’m any where near the unapproachable lead that NAF has been claiming.

310

You aren’t giving yourself the rule 18 bonus.

At least that is my guess. The last time I did a calculation was right after the auction, but unless things have changed very drastically and I haven’t noticed, you are a good 20 points or more ahead of over half the game, and at the time the auction ended you were 15 ahead of me.

311

Antinor, are you in this game? Please accept my offer!

312

I’m not jumping on NAF’s bandwagon. Yet.

If it comes down to you vs. NAF, I might simply sell out to the highest bidder. I’m a mercenary and proud of it.

313

Out of curiosity, is there anything I have that you want? The reality is, you are in the hole by about 20 points, I don’t know that there is any business that I can do with you.

314

Maybe but I haven’t seen the definition of what a set is so that could be the difference but you still have a 12 point swing coming.

315

which still puts me behind you

316

At the moment, I can’t think of anything useful. I started to think of something, but I realized it would be useless.

317

Are you sure of that? If my list of what the rules say is numbered correctly, you have seen that info.

318

Well let me know. I am happy to try to help you out. I was thinking maybe some multi people trades with you me and someone else, but it would take some negotiating to get there.

Obviously I would like rule 3 from you, and roses from other people, as these things have 0 value to you guys I would be happy to get rid of other stuff to get them from you.

319

Well, no-one took me up on my offer, so…

I burn both my slips of Rule 10

320

I’ve seen the three of a kind rule but not a set rule. I figure that’s what was in rule 10 but I guess we’ll never know.

So Pede do you want to do some trading? I’m very interested in your roses.
