ECONOMICS CLASS

Sunday, May 25
by Catspaws with Guest Instructor Oddball

I started my report last week by mentioning how brave a kitty I am. I say this not only because I like to battle shadows on the wall and torment Hazed (kitties truly -are- superiors to goddesses, demi-, semi-, or otherwise), but because I invited Oddball to be our guest instructor this week! He proved I made the right decision, by covering some points that had had the kitty scratching her ear in confusion.

His method of exchange management, while similar to Smitty's, is also a bit different, as he focuses on skimming the top of the stockpiles for his producers and hauls them out. He also gave instruction in walking up an exchange, and in setting the spreads. At the end of his lesson, I for one was much less confused.

I want to give a special thank you to Oddball for clearing up some vague points some of the other instructors haven't covered, and to all who attended, who were attentive and active in the class.


Hostess' Disclaimer: The ideas and suggestions presented by the instructors are their own, and are not necessarily accurate, nor represent those of IBGames or their staff.

This said, go on over to the Class Log and see for yourself what Oddball had to say about the skimming method of trading. Next week, June 1, I will do a Planet Building class on "Developing Ideas for Your New Planet". Be sure not to miss this exciting class.
