TheHelper Town - The Official TheHelper.net MyMiniCity City

[The Helper]

Thanks for all your support guys! I would like to announce the grand opening of our 14th skyscaper located conveniently behind downtown where you can barely see it Also, as mentioned by Cilla we have passed the 5000 mark in population. We are also getting the most clicks we have ever gotten with 1500 clicks today.

Ace says we get our first skyscraper at around 12k population so if we go we like we are (about +700 pop a day) we will get that in 10 days.

I thought commercials can bring in skyscrapers. Either that, or I go back to adding pops to it.

The MyMiniCity FAQ has been updated with 2 new sections. These are WIP and are stubs for new sections that I am going to add to the FAQ.

MyMiniCity Dynamic Signatures and Banners

MyMiniCity FAQs: MyMiniCity Tutorials - One time free 200+ Clicks on your city - I am going to add a guide to the CreateMyCity forums which illustrates how to get all there member reward clicks and how to use their VIP Click exchange for members with 75+ posts. A basic guide to navigating that forum as it is a great resource but stuff is harder to find than it should be

If you look at the Daily History Section you can see where I finally fixed my messup with French city and our city. We have a pretty big French city

http://thehelper.miniville.fr/

If I would have not messed up all that city would be in our city now.

 

[tom_mai78101]

That means we're not going to get as many clicks as last time?

No, that means that we are now getting the full force of my efforts at the real city. For a while there, I did not know I was accidently building the French City instead of our City. I made a mistake.

I never wanted a French City, I made it by mistake. Now I have fixed that mistake - we still have the French City (you can't delete them) but I am not going to do anything with it and everything should be all good.

OK, if we get our first Superskycraper at 12000 pop how comes these guys get theres at where we are about to pass them in the ranks - what the heck do they got that we dont. We are ahead of them in about everything except for population and we will be ahead of them there probably in a couple of hours.

It's all about the name of your city. This parameter acts as random seed for all the other parameters and how every population point is placed on the map, somewhat like a game of life.

Try some other names and you'll see that you're getting these supa-cool skyscrapers as early as 8000 population or even 6500.

Think of it as "luck". Or just take the system apart before you create your city.

That is some great inside info that I have not read anywhere else. I guess you can deduce that from the City thing Ace did. Cool info, I am going to add it to the FAQ - eventually.

MyMiniCity FAQ updated with a stub section on the new information from enouwee

What determines what a MyMiniCity will look like as it grows? Answer!

With that said, I now adjust all my signatures and other promotions to population. Thanks enouwee for the info.

What if? - or - The page that couldn't be

What would TheHelper Town look like if it had twice the population? (Bigger)
Half the transport? (Lacks streets)
Double shops? (Well, more shops...)
A decent name, like AceHart? P)
Your own name and (nearly) random values? (No idea)
No people? (Boring, what else...)

Find it out:
The Incredible City Simulator



The time it takes (yep, all on your comp, not here) depends mostly on population.
You may try with 5000000, but don't be surprised if you get a little warning...
I can't possibly be responsible for sudden heat problems, unexplained attraction to your neighbor's cat or similar, related topics.

The other values too, but much less.
Population is clearly the killer.

Suggestion:

In the ""The Helper Town" link above, right beside the User CP and in yellow, can there be links for the population, commercial, industry, transport, and environment?
