don't expand quickly, let people bitch for education/entertainment till you're making a decent amount, turn on the recreational drugs policy for a huge income boost with a negligible increase in crime rates and turn all your tax rates up to 11 or 12%.

also is this a safe space to lol @ goons who are hoppin' mad about star citizen, to the point where derek smart is lauding them
Well if you look at the amount goons have SPENT on Star Citizen it's no surprise.

Anyway Smart's trying to use us but I can't imagine what he thinks he's actually getting out of it at this point.

I do appreciate that SA has been drawn into an internet rivalry older than SA itself.

as long as they have water, sewage and electricity they'll survive. getting all your initial services set up can be expensive, don't be afraid to take loans or run on autopilot for a few in-game months while in the black to make enough money to get the basics built. each milestone also gives a cash injection which helps. also remember you can fine tune budgets if you're way overproducing water or electricity.

back to the days of letting simcity run while you gently caress off to do something else eh? :getin:

it didn't have anders bitching and moaning in the background, and if not anders, fenris bitching and moaning in the background.

i'd call it a good day. plus, cassandra was amazing to look at and listen to.

i paid no interest to the storyline. then again, i didn't finish it. i think i stopped when the "champion of kirkwall" showed up and my save (for the third time) didn't import properly, and some strange dude showed up bullshitting at whereeverthefuck castle i was at.

Well, I don't know if there is really a right way to tell people this, so I guess here goes. The CT did not come back negative. The cancer in the bowel is gone, but spots have appeared in my liver. They're not operable and there's no cure. Average life expectancy is 2-3 years, though there are outliers that live much longer. I'll be back on chemo in a few weeks, with the goal of pushing it back and keeping it there for as long as possible. I fully intend to be the outlier, the average is this way because most people that get this are old and not strong anymore. Who knows what they'll come up with in the next decade? I intend to beat it for as long as possible. Gonna need some time to process all of this. I don't really feel anything right now. Thanks.
