Hello from the U.S.!

Quote:I've done that with the killer coaster too!! Although I make a lot of custom coasters and for some reason the people will never ride them. XD They get to the entrance of the ride, do this weird little jump, and run away. I also didn't know that most roller coasters require a lift hill, so a lot of rides just ended up stuck at the first incline....
Now, on Zoo Tycoon...please tell me the people don't just wander into the enclosures if they're not fenced off properly?
Also, on the Sims 2 I used to amuse Mom by getting all of my characters in a room dancing horribly and without any choreography. xD They looked like they were all just spazzing out to different tunes.

SuperMod: striking fear into the hearts of spammers with her bright pink name!!

Our local Science Centre did a big display on Roller Coasters/G Forces. It was awesome, but it gave me ideas. My cars basically launched from the tracks and traveled a long way before they came down. Naming the roller coaster Crash and Burn was a bit of a mistake as far as public relations go, but it sure described the results. I may have found a new way to put things into orbit.

If you don't finish the fences in Zoo Tycoon the animals get out and eat people. I also did a waterfall between two pens and did not fence it properly and had animals escaping into other pens. The animals can eat each other as well. My lemurs were breeding so fast that I couldn't release them to the wild as fast as they could produce more lemurs. I think these games have built in glitches to get you if you do something wrong. The programmers have a sense of humor.

The Sims are too funny some times. The dancing thing is weird, they do look funny. The baby thing is odd, you never know when you are going to be given a baby option or an adoption option. The timing is often very bad. If you miss two days of work you lose the job. If you leave the baby alone you lose the baby. It takes three days to raise a kid so I figured out that if each parent alternates taking a day off work they can raise the kid and not lose a good job. But some kids are really ugly and are not good at anything and require a lot of work to keep them from being removed. It is a tough game. If you forget to put stairs in your swimming pool the Sim can drown.
We all know about the smoke detector.

Have you ever had the school buses and work cars all stuck because of a cat on the road. And if you forget to water them the flowers all die.

In Ski Resort Tycoon there is a Yeti that eats the Skiers if they end up in the woods.

The Yeti is only slightly less dangerous than Super Mod, the scourge of spammers.
