Well, at this point, I guess I'll wait to see who Tatts gives the free refreshes to before I make any solid commitments for commodities swaps.

That being said, Tatts, I'd really appreciate if you could at least give Twelve the free refresh, otherwise I may have to reconsider Gnaw's offer for the Speaker Chip and just keep it for myself.

You have to give it to someone.

Blend, you like our PN, yes?
Tatts, what do you offer me to have Blend give you the speaker card instead of me?


Free trade secondary, and your choice of Strategy next round. I will agree not to take the one you want.


Fair enough.
Blend, if you give speaker token to Tatts you get my wonderful PN.


Tatts. Throw in a free refresh for Tapper.


Yes

I count as someone. The only person I can't give it to is the person that is currently holding the Speaker chip (aka Khell).

@ blend. I'm defiantly down to trading with you especially since tatts sounds like he is limiting the free refresh this round. Let's see how things play out timing wise but im defiantly down to trade my 4 for what I might need for the tech specialty minimum 4 or if not needed a straight 4 for 4


You mean a commodities swap? You want to do a 4:4?

I currently have a tentative 2:2 deal with both ItWasGnaw and Tapper (if I remember correctly). I'll modify my deals if I have to, but it would be great if you could find someone else to do a bit of swapping with you so that I don't have to.

Well if I can't swap all my commodities then it has to be diplomacy to get the second tech. I'd still do 2 for 2 commodities either way.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

It's looking like the whole thing is going to depend on who Tatts gives the free refreshes to. I'm working on ensuring you're one of those people. We can discuss what to swap at that point, but trust me, it helps me to ensure that you have what you need, so I'll certainly be ensuring that you have it! :p

I should be open to trade

If you have availability then I'm down to do 2 for 2 with you as well or whatever you have available.

Tatts, I think you should do what's best for you. At the moment this deal sounds very favourable to Blend and Twelve. The speaker chip ain't all that, and if Blend keeps it for himself then your turn comes up quite quickly.

Since Khell already has it, he can't give it to Khell.

You negotiated with Blend for it didn't you? I just wanted to have a go at picking strategy near the beginning. They are all good cards

It is a good deal for me, so I am not going to argue against it and will happily agree.

(Even so, I mostly agree with Khell. The Speaker token has value. It can be worth trading for, and the deal above could be worth it. It is for most of those involved.
It could also be worthwhile for you: if you know EXACTLY what you want to do with it, when and why. What I am not sure about, is if this is the case).

Correct, and yes, it may seem nice, but I promise you, there are reasons that benefit the Hacan for this.

So what do you say? 2 TGs to give Khell free commodities refresh as well? (Basically, when I get my free refresh, I'll just give you 2 of my commodities for free if you give Khell a free refresh).

Khell - I figure you probably know why I'm negotiating this with Tatts - are you going to actually refresh your commodities if I pay for him to give you the free refresh?
