    Petrovar Ambassador: I wish San Paso had not died, I really enjoyed making that city.  I am using the similar style, of course, because that's the style I use.

    Benedict: The schoolhouse is what I used because it was the most realistic.  And, the empty lots are quite typical for cities in that era- only the downtown has any density.

    1879: Rio Pasa: Slightly less awful

    The town of Rio Pasa has grown in the last 4 years.  Though it still is a terrible little town that I hate, it's now slightly less terrible- I don't wish for God to destroy it with meteors and volcanos anymore, while condemning all of its residents to hell- I just want God to have all the residents leave, then light this town on fire.

    Of course, the area around my house is more annoying now than it was 10 years ago.  With Rio Pasa growing in a northward direction, there are now homes near my house.  Occasionally, somebody walks past my house.  More people come to my house to ask for money (no, get your own money!  I DONT CARE THAT YOU CANT FIND GOLD!!!  MY MONEY, AND I EARNED IT UNFAIR AND SQUARE!!!!), and its generally noisier here.

    Meanwhile, a small downtown has developed in the center of this little town.  It doesn't compare to Stonewall, the commercial center of the region, but at least there's finally something there.

    Some business owners proved to be successful, and have built nicer homes, using the Victorian styles that are popular in the great cities of the east.

    Rio Pasa is mostly growing in a northeastern direction.  This development starts out thick, but, as the roads get further apart, the homes become more sparse.

    This year, a school opened in Rio Pasa.

    Now, keep in mind, I still hate this place with a fiery passion.  Its just that my hatred has cooled down a few degrees.

    Anyways, in the next update, there will be an update.  And, in that update, there will be an update.  And, then, we have to go deeper to have another update.  At that point, I will perform inception on this CJ to update again after that update.

    A fiery passion you say? This sounds like you- m8ogfa.jpg Ah I'm glad Todd is around for me to steal this from him. 3.gif

    Great developments, and nice choice of school.

    I feel sad that you now live in a nosier neighbourhood, though you've got no clue what's left to come. And at last you can buy something in Rio Pasa!

    Regards,

    Sgt Pepper:  A deep-seeded and fiery passion of hatred for Rio Pasa.  Okay, that's what it was- it's more of a dulled down, but still hot hatred.  Yes, Rio Pasa has been developing lately, and I got the schools from the STEX and the LEX.

    Sky Guy: Yep.  Rio Pasa is now almost tolerable.  And, more is coming.

    Muck308: I'm glad to be back at it.  Granted, I won't be able to update as frequently as I did in the early days of San Paso, but I'm still glad to be back at it.

    Korot: Yes, my neighborhood is now very noisy.  And no, I have no clue what's in store for the future.  And yes, there is finally real estate in Rio Pasa.

    Sretamdet: I heard Europe was crowded... but still, Rio Pasa is terrible and I'm not going to be happy in this little dusty dirty town.  And, your curiosity about the next update is about to be satisfied.

    Benedict: Yes.  I'm glad to see some bigger houses.  Small houses are small, but big houses aren't.

    1880: It's a Map!

    Now, you know what Rio Pasa looks like.

    1880: An update within an update

    Don't worry.  It's not like this update has any pictures.

    1880: And update within an update within an update

    Yo dawg, I heard you like updates, so we put an update in an update in an update so you can enjoy an update while enjoying an update while enjoying an update.

    1880: This is just ridiculous

    Seriously, the actual update was a map, then there was an absolutely idiotic sequence of an update within an update within an update.  It has been several days since the last update, and I should have gone to the effort to make an actual update instead of just making a map and then using my incredibly awful sense of humor.  Anyways, next update, I'll have some photos and some actual information instead of a filler update like this.

    Hmm, I'm not very pleased with such a small, ridiculous update. Me and some other unhappy men grab the hayforks and torches...

    But still, a nice map. Now I can see where you live. I keep an eye on your journal ;-)

    Sretamdet: Small and ridiculous was all I had.  This update will be better.

    ComputerGuy890100: Yep.  When used correctly, memes can be very funny.

    Sky Guy: Yeah... it could potentially have traffic issues if these towns stop being so small and stupid.  But what's an automobile?  Is it like a horseless carriage or something?  It's crazy what the steam age comes up with.

    TmiguelT: If there is one thing you must know about me, it's that I cannot come up with original names for anything, and use an electronic translator to come up with some of my city names.

    1881: The update born from boredom

    Fortunately for you guys, I was really bored today, and decided to throw together and update really quick.

    Anyways, the populations of both Stonewall and Rio Pasa are stabilizing at about 2,500-3,000.  Farmland is doing well due to the irrigation system set up by Harvey.  

    Shootings and bank robberies are increasing in frequency because everybody is out to colonize the West.  It's not as bad here as in some of the mining towns in this territory, but it's problematic.  

    It's things like this that make me want to head back to the East.

    Anyways, I'm getting ahead of myself here.  Time for some actual pictures.

    The courthouse square has been lined with trees for shade.

    A church has been built in this town.

    Here's the new civic cemetary.

    Also, brick buildings are finally making their way to downtown.  This building, finished this year, is Stonewall's first brick building.

    Also, some newspaper offices have been set up in that building.  The Stonewall-Rio Pasa Times is what the paper is called.  Expect a newspaper in the next update.
