tongue.gif Minimoose, aren't you the one who came up with the idea of SEN Lots in the first place?

Yeah, but I was slow in coding it... I was doing it manually until isolated took over. Isolated offered to code it, so naturally I accepted. tongue.gif

was the original thread.

Edit: Wow, I just read the rules. Who killed my grammar? tongue.gif

Take a look at lot #2. Either he has the wrong special or the wrong icon is showing.

No, i'm pretty sure thats the right symbol. should mean that he can buy a second lot.

You had no icon for a free second lot, so, I just used your backrupty one happy.gif.
How can you iconize "second lot" ?

Perhaps freelot.gif would be better... even though that one is also used.

Jesus crist, stop complaining. You people read the rules and you signed up for it. I didn't because I read the rules and realized the chance of profit would be:

Landing on my own lot.
0: 150 Mineral Bonus
21-30: 35 Minerals
31-40: Store item: Random Money
66-70: Your lot collects double for the remainder of the round
(and that doesn't even mean I will end up getting anything)
71-80: 35 Minerals
99: 150 Mineral Bonus

33% chance of gaining minerals, but a 75% chance of losing them (at this time). And that number only increases with the number of people in the game. And then I have a small % chance of landing on a lot which will give me something but not be some other players lot.

I know, I calculated that if you land on someone elses lot and land on a -minerals lot as two different things. Since its subtracting minerals two times, why shouldn't it be counted twice?

I guess you could say that you also have a chance of gaining minerals from other people landing on your lot, but the chances of that are like 1% per roll.

EDIT: You know what, I misread the description of the game. Let me put it this way:

You have a 1% chance of gaining minerals by landing on your own lot. You have a 1% chance of gaining minerals per person from other people landing on your own lot. You have a 2% chance of getting that additional roll and then only a 32% chance of gaining minerals after that 2% chance. Thats even less than I had originally thought.

Can anyone explain why some people rolled the 21st, and I didn't? (as well as many other people).

Buggy coding.

Yeah chuiu, I kinda realized it... but the way your phrased it was 33% and 75% OVERALL. However, I don't think ANY of those special rolls have been implemented into the coding... yet.

you could do the free lot icon but instead make the houses smaller and have two of em instead of just one.
