In order to keep things moving at a steady pace, it looks like some rules need to be set for negotiations and transactions, including promissory notes. Basing things off of what is going on in Game 1, how does the following sound to everyone:
Negotiations are, as always, free to be performed at any time.
Instead of transactions being performable only by the active player in the Action Phase, each player can make transaction proposals at any time, but only once per neighbor per turn taken. That is, opportunities to offer a transaction are refreshed after each action taken by a player, and valid neighbors are counted after the resolution of the active player's action.
Possession of all promissory notes is public information.
It's the second bullet point that's the most important. This way, players don't need to wait for transaction proposals to complete before taking a turn, both on the part of the active player and the next player in the order.
Honestly, I'd expect players to propose things early and then stall in their turn if transactions are in doubt.
Otherwise the active player may not know what resources they have.
@Ketar how did 4:3 3:2 at some point into future between me; jakobagger; you sound?
On the one hand, I like trade goods. On the other hand, the two strat cards I wanted to use them for have already been played and one of them was played by you and has left me a little salty that I cannot use trade goods for a CC now. And we are also going to have to talk about Saudor sooner or later. So perhaps we can discuss something agreeable for the future that would make me more inclined to save a token for the neighbor I am most likely to become embroiled in war with.
KetarCome on upstairswe're having a partyRegistered Userregular
We can still potentially make your proposed deal happen. I would just like to work on some additional understanding between our empires that would make saving you that token make sense for me.
I activate the Lirta IV and ... Beeer system and move my junk in consisting of like 2 fighters 2 ground troops and my war sun, (leaving 2 ground troops behind) and start constructing solar panels on both planets

KetarCome on upstairswe're having a partyRegistered Userregular
I think the L1z1x are actually up next. And we would like to get Trade out of the way so as not to miss any further spending opportunities.
So, @jakobagger we'd be willing to trade you 2 commodities for 3 of yours. Or to trade 2 + our Trade Agreement for 6 of yours, which would end up with 4 trade goods total for you right away.
Further clarity requested: Does the Hacan ability allow other Active players to resolve a transaction with the Hacan on the Active player's turn?
I only ask because I read the directionality into it originally, even if two-way makes more sense now. But it also says negotiating instead of resolving transactions, so I guess they just only talk a lot too.

It makes sense to allow the Hacan racial ability to be two-way. That is, any active player should be able to perform transactions with the Hacan, even if they are not the Hacan's neighbors. This is more a common sense thing than a literal reading of the text.
The telepathic snake people are, however, very friendly and willing to trade any time!
Are you guys absolutely sure we have commodities to trade right now? We won't until Lizix triggers trade right?

Play Trade. Collect 3 trade goods and replenish my commodities (2).
@Lykouragh@MrBody@Phyphor@discrider to Pass or spend 1 strategy token to replenish their commodities. I'm sure we can safely assume Hacan replenishes theirs.

Not sure how this speeds things up.
@Ketar how did 4:3 3:2 at some point into future between me; jakobagger; you sound?
Otherwise the active player may not know what resources they have.
We do not like inconstant stars.
And so our auraers have advised a Pass @Lykouragh
So in this model I am giving away and receiving 6 total? Just uh, pretend I'm an idiot.
On the one hand, I like trade goods.

We conflated the carry capacity with the 3/3/3 thing
So, @jakobagger we'd be willing to trade you 2 commodities for 3 of yours. Or to trade 2 + our Trade Agreement for 6 of yours, which would end up with 4 trade goods total for you right away.
But then we have to ask, what exactly is the point of owning one?

Are you guys absolutely sure we have commodities to trade right now? We won't until Lizix triggers trade right?

The N'orr will offer 1 commodity payable as soon as possible (neighbors or first agenda phase) if you let us.
