"I Woke Up From The Strangest Dream
Whence all but I had fled
When I woke up I found out why:
I was already dead."

Just something that came to me.

[Raak] Very nice!
The game in fact shares its title with a song by the band "Liam Frost and the Slowdown Family", who I saw earlier this year supporting the wonderful Elbow. It's not my favourite of their songs, but it inspired the recursive dream game.

The next game to be started shall be Game 100 here at MC5! Any ideas how we should mark such an occasion?

[Tuj] Sorry, that's what happens when I browse but not visit the Chat Game.

[Inkspot] Took me a while to figure out what you meant :P and there was I thinking I was being premature suggesting that!

It looks like we've just bought a flat. The much-vaunted Scottish system is enormously frustrating at the early stages, as each property is essentially sold via blind auction. But now we're in a good position because we can pull out if the survey reveals anything unpleasant, or we can reduce our offer, or whatever, but the seller can't sell to anyone else, or decide they're not selling after all. Whee!

[rab] How exactly does that system work from the seller's point of view, then? Is there something that could stop you from dropping your offer down to £10, for instance?
