    I called in sick today because I've been working the last five days straight and have a bad sore throat for the last four. I work a night shift tomorrow so I can play during the day and Wednesday I have off.

    There are rarely times that it's good to be unemployed...but there are times it's advantageous. This is one of those times.

    Hey, can you throw me on the list in Discovery Delta? I'd like to play with Delph and everyone.
    Well, here's the problem. We have 22 people that indicated that they'd like to play on Discovery Delta, and that region only has 16 slots. So I'm currently looking at having to bounce out 5-6 people already. If you could find somebody to switch with you, maybe?

    I only have one or two slots remaining in Discovery Delta #1. We have slots in Viridian Woods (3) and Titan Gorge (5) - which would you prefer?

    I am fine anywhere if someone else wants the Delta

    Man, Amazon canceled my preoder (sorry if this has been posted recently, didn't see it in the last 3 pages), so good bye 45 price. Are there any deals going on right now for it? I'm super pissed off about this, I was saving like 10 bucks or more.

    By mistake? There was a problem where a bunch of preorders were canceled. Call Amazon up, tell them you were using a promotional code, and they'll credit your account that amount.

    For the people wondering about the region outside of your cluster, you guys still interact. So, if I have a Department of Education, then everyone gains access to Universities. The clusters just limit police/fire/sewage/garbage/water/power. Freight, tourists, and even commuters an still happen because all the clusters are connected via rail and/or ferry (potentially. They still have to be built). But commuters specifically will only travel so far.

    Edit: Another note, if you feel like dropping your residential taxes a ton, you will siphon off a decent chunk of sims from your surrounding cities.
