Yeah,found that thanks! Not sure it's the best use of resouces though.

You could have an increased maximum number of turns. Wouldn't giver 2 a min though, far too big an advantage

Moral of the story appears to be - don't piss off Spayed ;)

I'm more interested in working out how in hell he got that many credits and workers in the first place but I guess it'll take me a few more rounds......

Thank you  

I was beginning to wonder if I was just really dumb......

Just checked and for example Hydrogen batteries are being sold by CHOAM at around 70k/unit and the buy price is only 48k/unit

Yes, that's what I thought (and certainly when I discvered the market at the end of last round that was the case) but it seems not.....

Now as I have a degree in Economics you would think I could work out how to turn a profit in the market...either there is a bug or I'm being incredibly dumb - I'd say about 50/50 probability for each

Any yes, I have looked at the research for improving prices but there is such a big difference that I'd need to use all my CP's just for that and that just doesn't seem a good idea.

so how the hell do I make a profit?

I might just be getting confused but it seems to me that the market is bugged on SO:Main. CHOAM buy proces are always higher than their Sell prices so that even if I buy at the minimum bid there is no way of not making a huge loss.

If this is not a bug and I'm being an idiot feel free to give me the abuse deserved
