Trade Algorithm: Kayvon's Trade Genie


SPECIAL RULES

In order to qualify for this math trade, games must have at least 25 more people wanting them than trading them. To calculate how many copies of a game can be added, please use the following formula:

# of copies of a given game = (# of people wanting - # of people trading) / 25

Fractions should be rounded down. For example, Caylus has 306 people wanting it and 18 people trading it, so 11 copies of Caylus will be permitted on this list (288/25 = 11.52). Downtown: Air War Over Hanoi can only have one copy since 36 people want it and 5 are trading (31/25 = 1.24). Knizia's cooperative Lord of the Rings is NOT eligible for this math trade, despite having 79 people wanting it, because there are 122 people trading it!

** THESE RESTRICTIONS APPLY BOTH TO THE PRIMARY GAME AND ANY SWEETENERS! ** Yes, really, to sweeteners too! I know this is somewhat unusual, but please do not get cheesed off when I enforce these restrictions.

Edit: I'm going to allow an exception to the want/trade criteria for expansions offered as sweeteners to their base game. We'll call it the Sterling Babcock PR expansion rule!

Expansions are welcome as long as they meet the qualifying criteria.

It would be helpful to list the # wanting and # trading in your description.


GENERAL TRADE RULES

- You must accurately describe your game's condition, language, edition, etc.

- Traders from all countries are allowed. Specify your restrictions on shipping in your listing. Be prepared to have those same restricitions applied to you.

- You MUST communicate with your trading partners and ship your game(s) in a timely manner.

- You must submit a want list for each game you are offering. If you don't want to trade, submit a blank list.

- I reserve the right to remove games from the list for whatever reason. If you are on the bad traders list, your games will be removed.

- If you are unfamiliar with math trades, please read Lindey's Math Trade Guide at http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/93555. By posting an entry on this list, you agree to abide both by the general math trade guidelines and by those specific to this math trade.


DATES

List will close (both to main entries and sweeteners): Thursday, May 25th, 18:00 CST (or at 250 entries, whichever comes first)
Summary will be posted: Friday, May 26th, 12:00 CST (or 18 hours after list closes)
Want lists will be due: Sunday, May 28th, 12:00 CST (or 48 hours after summary posted)
Results Posted: Monday, May 29th, 18:00 CST


If you have any questions, please GeekMail me or post them in the forum thread. Happy trading!

Brand new, opened only to test both lasers (and yes, they both worked). Box has a slight crease along the lower edge of the box top.

Due to the extremely large box size, I will expect assistance with shipping outside the US if the difference is more than a couple of dollars.

Like New. Stickers have been applied to blocks and then blocks clear-coated w/ Krylon Spray (Matte) to protect them.

Games has only been played a few times using plexiglass to protect the map.

Clarification - rules/variants are in German w/ translations available on the Geek. Play components (dice, hedgehog markers) are language neutral. The only German on the board is ZIEL (Goal) at one end of the course. The other end says START so board is fairly obvious.
