Ask a forumer anything...

[RipRap 4,400]

Yes, I am a student at the University of Manitoba.

 

How many layers of clothing do you wear when you go out on a very cold night?

[The Pennsylvania Turnpike 252]

Not much, a shirt, sweatpants, and a coat.

 

What is your favorite song genre?  

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

Rock \m/ 

 

If you had to choose between engineering and architecture, which would you choose?

[airman15 4,111]

I'm working towards an AA degree in Drafting/Engineering support, which is focused on drafting. I'm not sure what I want to do but I hope that the skills I am learning can be transferred to a wider selection of jobs.

 

Are you living on your own, or are you still living with your parents?

[ausa07 66]

I absolutely hated engineering in uni (except for transport engineering which I loved) and I've taken courses in architecture in high school and liked it but I don't think I'd ever pursue architecture.  So I'd have to say neither 

 

I guess I'll go along with your question and ask:  What do you think about civil engineering and what do you think about urban planning?  Which do you prefer and why?

EDIT:  Seems that airman beat me answering schriefer's question by a split second so I'll answer airman's question and leave my question for the next person.  I've been living on my own since 2010.

[RipRap 4,400]

Civil engineering - applying mathematics and what is possible through science. Urban Planning - always finding new innovative ideas and challenge the possible. So I prefer Urban Planning.

 

Would you rather drag a steamship up a mountain, or would you rather give up on your journey?

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Can I enslave the locals to do it for me?  Because if I can, then I will enslave them (or at least hire them or trade for their labor somehow) to pull it for me, then bring them with me to share in the booty at the end of my journey, because there had BETTER be booty.  If not, I'm finding a different quest.

 

What's the best thing about SC4 for you?

[NielsC007 499]

I love the mods and the community here on Simtropolis,

 

Do you own any pets?

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

No It's hard to own a pet in my apartment, but I love dogs.

 

 

What's the country you would like to live? (can't be your own country).

[timmie 988]

If I really have to leave, it would be Sweden. Beautiful, generally nice people (though they have some strange quirks) and the social security system is excellent. Rather progressive too. It is a bit cold, though.

 

Would you like to live in another country for a few years?

[RipRap 4,400]

I am already living in Canada, and it's been a few years since we left the Philippines, so yes.

 

Do you always open your fridge for no reason at all?

[NielsC007 499]

No, but a lot of my friends do that.

 

Do you build a lot of industrial areas in your cities?

[timmie 988]

Yes, quite a lot actually. I should zone more commercial, methinks.

 

Low density residential, or high density residential?

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

It's not a dichotomy. You need both in my opinion, and both look equally good and fun to build.

A coastal city or mountainous?

[ausa07 66]

Coastal city.  I myself cannot imagine living away from the ocean.  It's what I've grown up to know and love.  So when building in SC4 I always choose coastal maps.

 

What's your favourite board game?

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Risk.  There's no close second.

What movie did you enjoy the most in 2013?

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Risk is amazing!

Always play Australia or South America, you can never lose.

I liked American Hustle. Rather light hearted for a drama.

Album of the Year for 2013?

[Duke87 1,070]

I currently only have four albums from 2013 and all of them are not as good as the previous work of the artists who made them. Ask again in a few years when I get more caught up and that collection has grown some.

 

So, let's see... album of the year for 2009?

 

(not a random choice, that's the most recent year for which I own at least 10 albums)

[airman15 4,111]

No, most of my family's collection dates before the year 2005.

 

Do you have a lot of VHS tapes?

[Ganaram Inukshuk 906]

What's a VHS tape?

 

Do you hail from an era that predates the VHS tape?

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

I was born in 1994, no.

 

How you knew SimCity?

[NielsC007 499]

My friend recommended it to me.

 

What's the worst game you've ever played?

[RipRap 4,400]

I haven't played much, but SimCity 2013 was the worst one so far.

Do you find pinball interesting?

[Mr Saturn64 742]

Yes, and I play it at the shore.

Who will will the Super Bowl?

[UndercoverNinja12 176]

Well....considering who's left, I suppose I have to go with the two teams I like the most (NE & SEA), so flip a coin for one of those two. I guess if I had to choose, NE, why not.

The Schulmanian community in Redwolf will no doubt hold a festival.

Scariest driving experience?
