And if he would have paid his treaty we would have less than we have because he didn't.

Nope. Treaty Payment would have been 300 silver or less. we have already made over 320 silver from the peppers. So once again. We have more silver because he didn't pay than we would if he did. Try to keep up.

Well, here it goes. It was 1372s for expansion and 150s for the Writ. Charged it with 80s. Will run out any day now.
IIRC paying the treaty does not mean I'd save any of those. Moving away from that place was imminent anyway.
The treaty payment would cost me just short of 300s... piece of cake.
What I've found and gained from that claim - stored/sold before Coles got in. (roughly ~ 20ish snakeskins, bunch of other hides, 18 leather, 20ish cotton cloth, collection of hats and other apparel, 10 brains, 8 iron stored, rest sold/used for lockets, 2 sleds, 3 backpacks, and God knows what else - took me an army of alts).
I left behind what I couldn't be bothered with, as I figured it wasn't much of value. Apparently, Chief has a soft spot for bellpeppers. But picked just a fraction of 'em.

I took the rest and left it in Boston's Tradeconts for grabs. They were gone in no time.

Long story short, if you made a special exception for me, so that I pay only 10s/year, I'd refuse that as well. Bullies of Plymouth are not welcome in my home and never will be. If no one else feels like standing up against you, then I will do it alone. You may be taking their money, but you've never won their hearts.

P.S. I don't know what you're charging for those peppers, but either you've overpriced them or just blatantly lying. Latter seems more plausible.

Nonono, you can't break logic.

Apparently Chief is not aware of the fact that even more could be earned by just scavenging abandoned claims.
What was left was meant for another wandering hermit as my way of repaying at least a small fraction of debt I owed to that mechanic, but now he ruined that.
That's why we can't have nice things. :(

8s a pepper. A Reasonable price for reasonable people. You placed nothing but green peppers but you have red peppers clearly in the screenshot. I think your either using old screenshots or giving away peppers you already alt-vaulted. I already know that Coles brought me all the peppers from that location.

Both pics taken an hour ago. Not a single bellpepper left now. Seems Coles was too lazy to pick 'em all, as he took less than a half of what was there. Mostly red ones as the ss shows. Either that or he replanted them and used one of the "super-speed-growth" bugs I've invented.

Or its an old screenshot and your trying to pass off the fact that you have run for the hills the minute you were found.

Glad to see there are still some people who some common sense on the server. This treaty is nonsense...

Any chance you still have the other potted plants? I would buy the garlic and devil's wort if you still have it. :P

Or I am dead on my claim. Hope never dies!

EDIT: Wow... never rly thought dying in a game would wake such strong emotions inside me. Well, thank you Chief for such a wonderful experience and another lesson learned.
EDIT #2: It feels like PMS. One second I'm raging, another I'm laughing hysterically, then I almost cry, then go back to laughing... all ending with an evil smirk.
Beautiful! :x :D :cry: :lol: :twisted:
