I am gaining in proficiency! My citizens are no longer wallowing in their own excrement! Biggrin

I learned a lot from mucking about in my first town, Test Tube (the one with the sewage difficulties), followed by my second attempt, Petri Dish (which got totally out of control and was mostly on fire at one point). My current town, Greenville, so called because I am trying to use only green energy and have environmentally-friendly policies, is doing quite well and has reached "boom town" status!

I'm sorry if the pictures look a bit dark - I've enabled some kind of temperate climate lighting for the sake of my eyeballs.

Very humble beginnings:

Somewhat sprawling but generally environmentally-friendly town:

Success:

The problem in Greenville currently is that I'm so distressed at the sight of virtual pollution on my virtual land that I can't stand introducing any more industry and so my town is in the red financially. For a while it was making money (not sure how) but this happy phase has come to an end. I took out loans to build infrastructure and parks but am now having trouble paying them back. I can't afford to introduce public transport, although this would be in keeping with the town's aims, and I can't afford a cemetery so there may be a slight corpse crisis soon. The challenges for this Mayor are many but perseverance is my middle name (it isn't really).
