Competition - Oppressive, Unhappy 'Show Low'

[Coconut Kid]

Well maybe I really am a tyrant ... these high and mighty university graduates who refused to be generals flocked to it. ...

Very useful hints all around.

I keep forgetting a thing about "screen shots" taken with the keyboard key.

Cafe Dave tells us: Simply press your "print scr/sys rq" key on the top right of your keyboard, usually beside the scroll lock and pause keys.  This saves a copy of the image on screen to the clipboard ... Now I have to try this out for myself, but it seems to mean that you can save the image right-away to an image holding program -- just as you would do for anything you copied to save to another "window." Only if you are doing it in a 'game' do you have to worry with finding it in the game-files somewhere. The "clipboard" should be the general key -- maybe, perhaps??

Bah!

On my second go I only just exceeded 1000. 1067 to be precise. I'm having difficulty creating enough jobs.

I'll have another attempt once I've calmed down.

Belb - you tyrant you! I'll try a bank next time.

So, everyone's playing the bad guy, he?

Well, I've downloaded the map, hopefully I'll get the time (read 'my toddler will give me a break') to play it. Not my style of play, as most of you, but that's the challenge of the map, isn't it?

Stand by, the worst of the meanest will arrive - hopefully.

Oh I really am a b*stard. Had one happy citizen so I jailed him - stayed o/k so I eliminated his wife - that did it

I can't beat you Belb - 1460 is my best.

I tried by being mean all the time but couldn't do it. So my best strategy was to be nice right up until the last few years. With taking off military rule, allowing elections and giving them all the nice stuff. Then at the end putting on military rule, "no-one gets out of here alive", taking off all the nice edicts, lowering salaries, raising rents etc, and firing anyone who stilled dared be happy. It felt like stamping on a kitten.

Good challenge CK but I won't play this one again - sooo sad!

Don't expect to hear anything from me soon, I'm doing a slow recon of Unhappy
