This is ridiculous, I'm being priced out from the commodity market. Damm profiteers, and so much for the Bots being a cure all.

At my current level and excluding taxes etc: If I buy Oil at $200, then I'd need to sell TP >=$2061, but If I buy Food at $60, then I'd need to sell TP >=$2549.

Oil I can handle, but not Food: only way I can sell TP =<$2000 is if Food prices start dropping pronto.

I don't mind playing Fascists next round and supplying everyone with Food and Oil at low prices, but I'm going to need legal aid.

N.B: TP = Technology Points.

I based mine on land usage, so if I had say 1000 acres of land and excluding taxes etc:

a) 900 RL = ~294 TP
b) 900 Farms = 630833 Food (Fascist Farmer + Maximum Agriculture Technology)
c) 900 OR = 61200 Oil (Fascist Oiler)

So, if Food was at $50, then Food x Food Price / TP = 630833 x 50 / 294 = ~$2146
And, if Oil was at $200, then Oil x Oil Price / TP = 61200 x 200 / 294 = ~$2082

There are a lot of other missing variables, but it gives me a rough idea at what prices I have to sell TP as a Technocrat.

Playing with the market based on another commodity is probably the worst way you could play

Patience: Yep, I'm with ELK and Marshal.

ELKronos: Patty is more hairy.

Gallery: K at least I am to my expectations now.

LadyGrizz boobies is fine

NOW3P: Morwen is a much harsher mistress than boredom....

no human player sells bushels at 25-28 in the beginning of set on public market.

i got ~100k total of those extra cheap bushels and few days ago thx to standing order ~15m bushels at 29 (bit under 31 bucks after taxes).
