User:Zanygenius
Welcome to my userpage, I joined in 2017. I have been on various wikis since 2015, and I have been a confirmed user on | WikiVoyage (see my page here), where I do the majority of my wiki work.
BUT: WHAT CREDITENTIALS DO I HAVE TO BE HERE? Find out below.

My History and affiliation
SimCity
I was introduced to the SimCity franchise via the mobile game in 2016, and my (first) city got up to 165K, then I lost it. Since then, I started a new city and empire.
Buildit
I used a neat trick to control multiple cities, and I really leaned how to run a city. Now Zachoville is above 580K, and is 100% happy!
Computer
After months of research, (and lots of youtube vids), I downloaded a free trial version (short of money), and made lots of progress, and learned a lot. City: Zachoopolis.
On October 28, my b-day, I'll get to play the game full, and I'll help you even more then!

Well, I named it that, I claimed Viridain Woods, and got to work in Wessex Bend, my first city. It is still a small city, but I'm working. As of October 29th, it has about 650 sims, all proud of their city. They taught me a lot though, abouthow to expand based on demands, and how to meet them. Best advice I could pull was "Simoleons are the life-blood of a well-run city (actual quotation)"; Always have extras, and be ready to supply that (paraphrase)|author=The-Sims|. Well, I renamed [{Wessex Bend]] into Traffic Inhabital, a direct citation of SimCity's design for lots of cars in small towns.
Then, I went to conquer a new city, which I named Wayterference City, because I wasn't sure, and that confusion was interfereing me. Also, a highway literally went all the way through the area, and thus: Way Highway terference Interference! And by the way, thr main highway has very little traffic. But the road that hooks up is a nightmare, and some of the other roads are a mess!!! (Pics coming soon!) That city has about 5.5K people in.
Well, now I have a third city, Pleasntstonship, currently with 135 sims. It's a small town, and will forever be small, as sims need a peaceful place to be in the region.
I soon hope to expand into the other 13 cities to make it a sweet 16 total. But, also I am thinking about Great Works. Currently, I have a strategically placed international airport in-between the cities so they can connect, and I'm working on municipal airports to hook up the whole system!
Hopefully by 1 November 2017 (this is not a promise, I flunk promises) I'll have pictures up of my cities!

I find Sandboxes to be useful when working on a wiki, so I have just that here, and I recommend getting you one too. But how: Type in [[User:(You)/Sandbox]] to get a page going. ☺ Also, Before I submit articles here, I use my namespace to perfect them. You can visit User:Zanygenius/Pages Index to find all of them.

Have a nice day, and a
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! (October 31, 2017)
You can ask me for help on My Converstaion and Help Page. But chances are, that your answer could be on the Main Page! But, I'll try to do my best for you in SimCity.
