Organization: Participate in the generic contest. (Airsoft war?)

NO.  It must remain generic!

[Mephansteras]

The Generic Contest kicks off! Entrants from four of the settlements participated to see who could show off the most generic Colonist of all!

GreatWyrmGold - 1 (Catastrophic Failure) - A stunningly gorgeous woman comes out on stage! She is not in the least generic! (Bribery of some sort is suspected)
evilcherry -2 ( Mild Failure ) - The colonist is kind of generic, but shows just a bit too much personality.
Toaster - 3 ( Neutral ) - Utterly boring. Well, there's some personality, but compared the competition this average Joe is just average enough! Victory! (Spoiled a little by a victory speech that was a bit too specific)
PyroDesu - 1 (Catastrophic Failure) - Pyro's contestant shows up in military fatigues with an airsoft rifle. This is not generic enough! When booed off stage he shoots the Judge and is disqualified.

If anyone picks Colonization I will walk my space dog in the front yard of your colonial center.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Which reminds me.

Is there some way we could balance out the number of people we get from colonization with the number of people we can employ? Everyone has 4-5 unemployed people, somewhere around a third of the total population. Unemployment was better in the Great Depression!

That is one of the things Markets are for. They're cheap and they give unskilled colonists a place to work.

[GreatWyrmGold]

That would mean that a solid third of each colony would need to be occupied by markets, which would almost never be used since their effect is kinda...lackluster, unless you need lots of wealth for something and have enough sellable goods.

It may also be an issue with 6 player games. My 3-4 player games generally have only 1-2 unused colonists for most players at the end, and markets are only occasionally used even then. I'll have to ponder it.

Phase choices are in:

Player	Phase
GreatWyrmGold	Build
Kashyyk	Trade
PyroDesu	Build
Toaster	Build
evilcherry	Production

[GreatWyrmGold]

Colonization: Take a crook. Unless everyone else wants one, in which case take an unskilled hobo.

Build: Build one of those basic goods factories. Staff it with as many unskilled hobos as I can.

Production: Farms, plus a harvester-goodsfactory-chain to make a nice new Basic Goods, plus the CC for a VP.

Trade: Sell my Basic Machines and Basic Raw for 8 Wealth, bringing me up to 11. Buy 2 Basic Goodses, bringing me up to 4.

[Dariush]

Prod: +2 VP, -1 BG, -1 RRR, +1 AM;

[Toaster]

Colonization:  Best available, assuming for some insane reason a non-crook is available
Build:  Market.  Instastaff with Unskilled.
Production:  3x Farm, Harvester, Basic Goods Factory, CC.
Trade:  Attempt to foist off "holistic space crystals" (aka rocks I found out back) off on the traders for massive wealth.

[PyroDesu]

Build: Farm, instant staff: Unskilled

Production: (Much obliged, Evil. You just reduced this cycle time by a turn.)
Farms produce: +5 Food
Harvesters produce: -2 Food, +2 Basic Raw
Good Factories produce: -2 Food, -2 Basic Raw, +2 Basic Good
Machine Factory lays idle

Trade: Send some cool-looking geodes back with the traders for their troubles, but not selling or buying anything.

[evilcherry]

Lets see.
Build: warehouse complex
Prod: 3vp, br, rr, 1w net.
Trade: sell 2br, 2rr, buy as much basic machine as possible

Damn. Sorry, everyone, internet ate my post and I didn't realize that it never went out. Toaster, you only have 1 Basic Goods, so you don't have enough for a Factory. Did you want to build something else instead?

Evilcherry: You only have 1 Basic Raw and 2 Rare Raws to sell. That puts you at 15 wealth which can buy 2 Basic Machines. You good with that?
