The Next Person... The aim of the game is to guess something about the person who will post next. Then, the next person answers whether the guess is correct or not. Feel free to add small comments next to your answer. This game is not to be confused with The Guess Who's Next Game! as the aim is not to guess the next username. Or the Ask a forumer anything game because you don't ask a question to anyone. Here is an example of how it works: User 1: The next person had flown an airplane in business class. User 2: No, I haven't. If only I could afford it! The next person likes brussels sprouts. User 3: Yes, I eat them all the time! And so on... As always, please observe the Forum Game Rules. This includes The 2 Post Rule which strictly imposes a two post wait for posters. Let's play! The next person has driven a car.

The Username Above Me Based on The Avatar Above Me game, here is the Username version! The rules are simple. When you post, rate the above person's username on a scale of 1 to 10. With a rating of 1 representing a terrible username, and 10 a most excellent username. Feel free to add constructive comments about it if you wish. You may also give information about your own username, to help others with their rating (i.e. what it means, why you chose it). Here is some background insight about my username: I chose my username because I am a big fan of cricket. An unusual way to get out, is to hit the ball twice (hit twice). I added the number 99 because it would be very unusual for a batsman to get out 'hit twice' for 99 runs! End result = hittwice99 As always, the Forum Game Rules still apply. Let's play...

After weeks of planning and days of lotting, I can finally present you with the Maximum Security Prison! When I first played SimCity 4, the jail really bothered me. It was too small, and there were no walls or fences to keep the prisoners in! So I decided it would be of benefit to see some more added realism to the game by improving this. These are the main changes made: - - I have merged 4 city jails together to form one large building. - At the front, there are two security gates and checkpoints with metal fences. - The walls and surveillance towers fit around the outside. - The car park at the front uses improved car park textures. (By sc4jeeks) - Made a small plant area at the front to screen the prison from a road. - Added guard dogs near the walls - Added a helipad on the roof - Made an outdoor recreational area, where prisoners can take a break and play basketball, and collect food from the vegetable patch! - On the left side, I have made a road where delivery trucks can bring food etc. - Made an area where prisoners do hard labour by bashing rocks. - Transit enabled the first tile on both streets. - Revised costs and capacity. (Details below) Pictures: The Maximum Security Prison at night The outdoor recreational area The main entrance and car park The outdoor recreational area lit up at night The hard labour area with prisoners bashing rocks I think I have succeeded in making a more realistic jail for SimCity. I hope you enjoy using it in your cities. Just a note before you ask, The MSP does not replace the default City Jail. Updates: 21/2/10 - Removed the tennis court and added another basketball court. 4/3/10 - Fixed ingame name problem. 18/4/10 - Updated the link to the PEG Security Prop Pack because of modifications to Pegasus's site. Effects: 19 searchlights come on at night to spot prisoners escaping! Credit: Thanks to all those people who viewed and commented on my lot thread. A special thanks goes to T Wrecks for recommending minor adjustments to this lot. Installation: To install, place the LOT file in your SimCity 4 Plugins folder. (Located in My Documents, SimCity 4, Plugins) Dependencies: There are 6 dependencies that are required for the MSP to look as intended. Notes: You may already have the building as props files.

8/10 A nice happy face.

A loss is a loss, but I'd say losing by a close margin is easier to take. Then at least you kept up with your opposition, but couldn't quite get over the line Type of food: savoury or sweet.

Yes, the weather's been quite good recently. The next person has watched a movie in the last week.

5/10 Nice links to your CJ, but the font is very small and overall it lacks colour.

Count to 1000 with pictures. The sequel. Yes, THAT sequel.

I don't really enjoy cleaning, but jobs have to be done. The next person has ridden a horse before.

Granted, but they're now on for double the time. I wish to be a better golfer.

Open source. Peppermint or spearmint.

8/10 I quite like it. DC and Metro fit well together. It also reminds me of trains (the metro).

Wow that's so cool - what a creative way to showcase the Trixie winners! Now we just need to learn it... -
Did you apply the two game updates listed in the Nightlights and Updates section of this article? First you must install the EP1 Update, followed by the SC4Update4BAT, for nightlights on custom buildings to show. Yes, sorry I didn't check them, they're definitely broken links. Here are the corrected ones: Dependencies for BSC SFBT Street Tree Mod BSC Prop Pack Cycledogg No 1 BSC CP PropPack Vol02 CPTNo8TreeModelsPartOne CPTNo9TreeModelsPartTwo PEG MTP SUPER PACK 1 Two of them have different titles, but don't worry they're definitely the files you require.

Ploppable landmarks shouldn't be the driving force for your city to succeed and grow economically. Not everyone wants world famous landmarks repeatedly dominating their city skylines. Instead, I think they should involve more strategic aspects, rather than the 'build when the money's in the bank' approach from SC4. I agree that landmarks shouldn't be limited to the ones available in the menu. It would be good if certain structures could be developed to have a 'landmark status'. For example, if you invested in zoning high density, a skyscraper could develop and later become a major tourist attraction, boosting your city's economy. The same could apply if you built a city park area, much like Central Park is an attraction in New York. All this would depend on factors, such as the location of the structure in relation to the surrounding area. A structure located in the heart of the city (the CBD) would be in a more desirable area for tourists, than say in an industrial zone. This would then increase the structure's popularity. Note: a structure isn't limited to just skyscrapers or towers, it could be a park, city hall, museum/gallery etc. As jacksunny said, there could be an option to 'promote' a selected structure's status to a landmark, when you think the time is right. This would involve a risk and reward strategy, as you would initially choose how much money to invest in upgrading the structures's facilities (i.e. costs would represent building an observation deck/restaurants on a skyscraper, to attract tourists). There would be no guarantee of success, as it may not generate enough income. But get it right, and the landmark would bring huge economic benefits to your city.
