Apparently Urist Steel Inc bought licorice stubs from me.  Apparently they don't exist.  I click on their profile, but they don't exist. 

EDIT I think it may have come from bay 12.  Considering its "Urist"...

what I really like is that you can slide up and down production so, say, when you have 8 hours to work you can just build a bigger batch and summon a bigger fish, and you don't need to check against your schedule, unlike other browser games

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

I bought a well and power plant right away. You can make natural gas for the power plant and make water for your other stuff.

A power plant is actually not very lucrative right now. Your margin on electricity is likely to be only a few cents per unit given that electricity sells for around 10 cents on B2B. It's going to take you forever to earn a return on the money you invest in a power plant.

well we had a cartel going for about a day where we raised the price to $12, but then we ran out of money to buy up all the cheap coal coming onto the market, so it kinda fell apart. At this point, just list it at whatever seems to be the going rate, taking into account the quality of your coal.
