Talk about a waste of time...

Well, in one of the circles I frequent, a rather dumb internet game has become something of a fad.  The point of it is to populate a city by getting people to go to your city's page.  Despite peer presure to participate, I didn't really see a point, considering how many cities there were already in the U.S.  Then, it hit me: I could just build in another city and get a high number!  So, I built a city in Tuvalu, and am already 15th.  So please, click my stupid link and populate my stupid city so it can be #1 in it's stupid little country!

Click, and conquer Tuvalu!

No trick, I'm very straightforward about it.  It may be dumb, but it's already the 7th largest city on Tuvalu!

Click and populate!

Sweet, party.  I'm proud to report that my city's roads resemble something of a swastika. 

Gimme industry! http://x-island.myminicity.com/ind
And population! http://x-island.myminicity.com/

I can't believe this city-building thing has picked up so quickly

I wonder if you can cheat by pinging your page with fake IPs?

posted on December 22nd, 2007, 5:18 pm

Probably... but is the game worth it (is it worth it to spend any time whatsoever trying to make your city bigger...)?

Is it worth your time associating with it at all? RedShirt...you've lost the plot

Yup, no swastika for you, Red!
