This is REALLY weird, but my 10-year old brother, who recently purchased SimCity Supreme, has created a very succesful city by building a Stadium with a surrounding park when initially zoning, then building commercial zones around it and residential zones around that, then shunting industries off into the nether regions somewhere. Weird. But he does have "No Disasters" set, so I suppose it works.... Neat idea for an addition to the game: A city council determined to block everything the mayor does..... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Do you hear the people sing?
