New Sim Nation Region: Green is the new Orange

[MagicChicken19 43]

Welcome to the SimNation Region of the Week. Every week our group will start a new region with a theme, and hoping for activity, design, and style!
 

Green is the New Orange



The rapid expanse of similization has put a strain on the sims. On one hand, land of value is becoming more and more difficult to find, and land of “Value” is quickly being swallowed up by corporations, mining interests, and the likes. On the other hand, cities of the past have become so overcrowded and dulled by the sights of concrete, brick, and orange or purple haze, that any land outside the city is considered valuable. So when SimNation opened up the delta of the Discovery River for development, a group of forward-thinking mayor were selected to build cities unlike any other … cities of green!

Some mayors set their sights on the basics, building intelligent communities designed around parks, nature, and a community mindfulness of mother earth. Other mayors realize the future relies on a balance between eco-friendly “green” technologies and the powerful ideologies of the Academy. Yet other more silver-tongued mayors have a different “green” in mind, instead focusing on the green made from the mulch of trees ($), rather than the trees themselves. Whatever the case may be, this groups is setting forth to create a new, green-minded place to help Sims escape from the drudgery of the concrete jungle, the brick towers, and the orange skies. Say goodbye to the orange of old, and say hello to a green future!

I have been doing a few regions with Magic Chicken. He started the region of the week about a month ago and I am hoping to stay in every region he makes. I am actually learning a lot and he is encouraging me and helping me to think outside the "square." By the square I mean square grids.

 

This time I am keeping a Journal. If you enjoy following stories I am going to try to make this a story. If not just skip my first post and if you want to follow me check out the screen shots throughout the development of this city. This will also be my first city to focus mainly on crime prevention/education (I am sure Panos will thank me for this and mjohnson sorry about that last city guys, I tried to blend it in by making the city "Mafia based" from the 20s' ...sucks though when the city has a population of 2,200 and 700 of them are crims at large!!), pollution prevention (theme of the new region), and also my first attempts at interchanges. I sincerely invite advice and constructive criticism. Thanks for reading, and taking your time to check this city out! I have lately started to like the way Latin words sound with the city names, so I have been incorporating them into my Cities for something unique and fun. 

 

The name of the city is: Viridis Viculus - Meaning 'Green Hamlet.'

LawnPhysics, be careful with your crime rate Your Appalachian Mafia town, had 2000 population and 800 criminals...... a true Mafia driven town.

 

(how you managed it is a miracle of it's own......)

It was sort of part of the plan I had. I wanted to go with the Mafia and Prohibition, So I made crims by doing everything you are Not  suppose to do to prevent them. So no education, and small police stations with no cars and one jail, had them crims at large rolling of there. It really was intentional. I think the most crims, before this region, that I have ever had was 160 or so at large. It got way out of had though when it hit 700. Thanks Panos for taking it for what I was trying to make out of it. Just was doing something different. I had an entire city journal set up I should post so you can understand how I got there and why. I Will edit it and get it up here if you want to see it.

OK. Found bit time to grow the mushroom city. I have plenty of jobs atm, and is turning a small but healthy positive budget. Kept most of the map natural forests intact  and going to see how I can improve happiness with parks, without crashing the bank.

I just posted a issue with the big lizard getting stuck in my city.  He won't go away even on a reboot.  Can I get anyone here to visit my city.

Is this one still going/available space? I'd love to join if possible. 

[MagicChicken19 43]

Unfortunately, its full, but we'll be starting a new region tomorrow!

By the way, anyone have a good idea for a theme they want to try for this next week's region?

[ZoePurls 0]

Okay, I'll stick around

[Redskull 0]

I'm not that experienced, but I'd like to join the next region if possible.  Always more fun with active people.
