it makes me laugh the stuff that GI does. I have been playing since July go 2012 and have only spent $10 the first couple of months. I am at level 70 and rank 40th in experience. This game is for people with patience or deep pockets. I will be able to purchase a big power plant this weekend with al the free city credits being thrown at us. This will allow me to get happiness points that I need to get more factories. A couple of months ago after the change in game play I destroyed 11 factories and was able to purchase more of the normal factories which in the long run will be more useful. I am at 447k in happiness so I need to get to 484k. That's why I need the big power plant. A note to newbies, don't be so hasty to use the hammer. Save your silver medals for when they offer happiness buildings for 12 silver medals. I have stockpiled 60 so far. With a 5000 happiness building, I ca get 25k in happiness for relatively low energy. Also, maximize the baseball and merry go round and scrap the other low happiness buildings even if the are upgraded. You also need only 6 of the cheapest houses, scrap all the others because you always want to run in a deficit of population so you get all the items from the walkers and such. Good luck to all.

The really strange thing with this game is that you can have a population of around 1/2 million and only 6 houses, seems a bit overcrowded to me.

i had 5 basic houses in storage so they are placed on the city. I have 10k of population to increase. They will go back to storage when I am done.

This does not work if you run transport. I run 12 double deckers all the time, this gives me 60,000 coins every run. But I need to replace 1200 population, so houses are very important We all played differently, which I suppose is one of the attractions of this frustrating (thanks to GI) game. user : Must b Daft - town : Trashville2 - level : 66 (gifts stay in my queue until I can return it)

how much real money did you pay for the double decker busses? My policy is not to spend real money. Earned city credits go to energy needs.

was thinking abt the Home Sweet Home achievement and wondered would if EVERY building had zzz's over it and there was no construction of buildings or land and all the terminals were not working. So this morning I happened to have it were I could do it. NOPE. Didnt work.

I hate how the items in my Warehouse are not organized in any sort of way. Not alphabetically, not based on cost of the items, not based on how many of each item you have. And not only that, but they are constantly moving their location in my Warehouse. One day Coal is on the first page...the next day it's all the way on page 3. I can never find what I'm looking for! Does this seem to bother any one else? Are you with me on this one, GAB?

Hello guys, just wanted to share some news with you. Some of you might remember that I was complaining about being overcharged when we had that buy 3 get one free deal a few weeks ago. After getting numerous ridiculous "answers" from the Customer Service I just gave up and quit playing. Today I got an email from Dina... Wow, imagine that, they refunded 74 credits. FINALLY.

Wow! Good for you!

And Meg, I also don't like the way the storage is arranged. And I have also noticed the huge increase in number of spaces possible in the warehouse, sometimes 100 more spaces than I really have. It is a mystery!

I need help! I got a port and need 2 puzzles for my shipment. I dont have a toy factory yet cuz my ppl are leaving town in droves for my achievemnt to population to 0. I dont have credits to pay for the 2 puzzles. Anyone can you help me? I have 8 hrs left as of 3 pm eastern time to fill my shipment. Anyone have any puzzles? I have friended lots of you already but if you can help me I really appreciate it! Thanks in advance. P.S. my population is down to abt to 18K!!!!

We have a special thread for the requests if you need help with filling your containers. Check it out if you haven't yet.
Also, in one of your previous posts you mentioned how easy it was to accidentally store buildings. There is a simple solution to this problem: fill all your free storage spaces with the structures you don't need, like, for example, decorations -- trees, fountains etc. Then if you accidentally hit "store", the game would just tell you that you don't have room.

Can anyone help me on the achievements please... Where it says destroy 300 gifts and 500 decorations, do I have to physically place these in the city and then demolish them. And are gifts of billboards etc counted as decorations? I only ask because i feel as though I have been doing this for ages and getting nowhere, there isn't a tally of how many I have destroyed so I just wanted to check I am doing this correctly before I continue to waste £500 per demolish.
Thanks.
