In my city the game says: * I need more shops. AND * I need fewer jobs. I don't understand how to do both at once. If I increase the number of shops, there will be no one to work there. My buildings are occasionally abandoning due to lack of shops, workers, and jobs. I zoned 80% residential and 20% commercial. My population details are: 62,371 population 2800 $ workers 3170 $$ workers 0929 $$$ workers ==== 6889 total workers 9119 (6319 unfilled) $ jobs 6358 (3188 unfilled) $$ jobs 2260 (1331 unfilled) $$$ jobs ==== 17737 total jobs (10838 unfilled) 1400 (387 unsatisfied) $ shoppers 1585 (466 unsatisfied) $$ shoppers 0454 (87 unsatisfied) $$$ shoppers ==== 3439 shoppers (940 unsatisfied) Traffic remains clear or green, with no red-level wait delays on my mass transit.

The game halted - it won't let me progress time.

My brother and I are playing an awesome region we've invested lots of time into. Our initial two cities filled up on space, so we expanded to new ones. My new city is going to focus on education and technology. I took out three bonds to get my new city up and running as quickly as possible. The whole place is zoned, so it will be profitable in about 2 hours of game time. I sent a gift of $1 million to the city. The problem is, I got so excited I forgot to pay attention to my current city funds before accepting the gift. I need that money gift from my other city to continue. How do I accept it?

It finally showed up for me as available 3 hours 55 minutes after the release time. I had pre-ordered the limited edition several weeks ago.

Will delete this post within a few minutes.

SkiGeek's custom title is going to topple over from the weight of all the ribbons

[/delurks] Congratulations everyone! I give you bunnies! And duckies!

I'm going to buy the retail tomorrow, it should be pretty cool I didn't get picked for the closed beta, and was too late for the signups for the open betas (who knew half a million people could sign up in 1 day!?!?) I expect to play a Priest or Druid, possibly a Mage. Blizzard always makes excellent games, I'm looking forward to it

Also, Our children to decide? How are we to have a say when our elders are pushing it over the edge before we're even in our 20s!quote> It isn't winter until the middle of winter? Lol After all, the solstice markes the middle of the time of year when the days are longest (winter)...

You wouldn't want Cuba. It's a huge burden (both financially and internationally) having a presence in another country or being involved in their affairs (case in point: Iraq).

Hey, I just relized you can click on the award icon to see what they are...nifty

Cars, politics, and the weather. Maybe we should throw in the kitchen sink, too? The worst I've ever had it is a few times in East Texas. 80
