This Game makes my brain hurt.

It’s a good hurt though.  
Apparently Rot 13 isnt going to work. 😉

That being said. I offer the following. I trust all parties that read it will figure out what to do with it.

Oh, and don’t Kill the messenger.

1. Collecting more than 30 copper pieces will make all your copper (including jewelry) as valuable as silver.

Oh. Heh. I didn’t know you had already seen 10 Oredigger. I thought that it was still a secret between T-fish, Chrisk, and I.

But yes, since you ask, I will spell it out.

You are still free to trade copper. Just, now you have a bigger reason not to.

Buy my scroll then. But then, You’ve already seen it. Right?

Copper equals Silver for me, yes. Not you.  
This trade would make the copper equal to silver for you, for the trade.

Meeko Offer S13 – Open offer: Look at my 10 for 3 copper.  
All players may accept this offer untill withdrawn.

I didn’t think I would need to make this move. This game goes sideways, even while it’s going sideways.
