Can I do it? :D
[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6643010/FP.png[/img] This is the current State of Facepunch. Amazing how fast it grew.
[QUOTE=Binladen34;30875156]Okay guys, I need a list of new information compiled so I can put it in the OP. I've been busy for the weekend, and I need you guys to help. Regarding the new invitees; Oicani Gonzales MeDzRoNmE Fhenexx Ghost394 Due to the high volume of people in this project (30, not including you guys, or the newly invited ones who I didn't go over yet, so 60 total people including the new guys, and you) Land plots maybe scarce if at all viable. A second region may need to be created, if that becomes a factor, you guys will be in charge of it. This also includes some people who have not yet been invited due to them not giving me emails. Facepunch will eventually become a country instead of a State :v:[/QUOTE] In that case we need to screenshot-stitch-together the multiple regions that come out of this thing!

I'm tempted to ask to join in, but I was never horribly good at making money in the game, and when I did figure out how to make money, it fucked up traffic and my mayoral rating (toll booths everywhere and large ghettos). I could never get above a mayoral rating of 30, and my cities would be massive slums full of oppressive tolls just to earn money. I'd toll people twice to get to work by segregating zoning districts and toll the exporters 4 times to access a port/way out of the city. Tolls ended up accounting for more than 50% of my cities' incomes, without them I'd never be in the green. Capitalism ho~!
Where did Elmwood go?
Wow, ThePoliticalGamer, your city is horribly polluted :v:

What you need is a larger region, which is possible to make using an external region editor, like SC4 Terraform. Once you create the larger region, you can import all the cities as they are now and then BOOM! New, larger region.
Da fuck, what HAPPENED to my CITY!

All I need is a half hour and I should be able to get it done, but it'd be up to you to upload it, I guess. How does 64 x 64 (in terms of small cities) sound to you?
Eh, sure why not. My city was destroyed anyways. [editline]3rd July 2011[/editline] And I may sound like an idiot, but how do I install the lottery mod?
[QUOTE=Fhenexx;30875957]I could do that right now if you want. How does 64 x 64 (in terms of small cities) sound to you?[/QUOTE] I don't know, I don't actually have the time to play. All my time regarding this project is actually keeping it running, and getting people inside it. If you could just make the entire region as big as possible, with varying sizes in cities, go ahead.

Besides, I'm not sure if we can even fill it up. Still, better to have more than enough than not enough. Also, should I make varying small, medium, and large or just small and medium?

I will join you all in due time, as soon as I find my discs and reinstall the game. Glorious days were had on Sim City 4.
I was just thinking of putting one large city in the middle of the region to serve as the "capitol" of sorts, ran by one of the more experienced members of the project. Think I should go along with it? If not, that's fine.
Should I have expectations to have an easier start with all the other cities, or am I still going to crash and burn?
I think I'd like to get in on this new region.
[QUOTE=Zovox;30858243]Alright its working now, but how the hell do i spin buildings before i build them?[/QUOTE] How did you get it to work? Edit: Ah I got it!
I would LOVE to get in on this! Any slots open? Let me find my ole disc
Can anyone confirm my city? [editline]3rd July 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Swebonny;30876483]How did you get it to work? Edit: Ah I got it![/QUOTE] The TAB, HOME and END key's are your bestest best friends in the whole world!
Hey guys, can I claim this little lot right here? [img]http://i.imgur.com/YrNkb.png[/img] I'm not that great with city building, so it's probably best if I have a tiny one :v:

I'm almost half-way done with the new region. Doing these region configurations by hand is a bitch. :v:
[QUOTE=Fhenexx;30877168]Well size isn't going to be a problem pretty soon. I'm almost half-way done with the new region. Doing these region configurations by hand is a bitch. :v:[/QUOTE] Should I just wait then?
[QUOTE=Lyoko774;30877185]Should I just wait then?[/QUOTE] No, no. I'll still need to import these new cities to the new region anyhow. So, go ahead and make another city there.
Ok, I know where I want to build. Now it's a matter of actually not sucking at the game, which I can't do.
