Shit, this was supposed to be short again!

► TUMBLR:
(Shame? What's that? Sounds like I don't need that.) I've started posting on my sunshinebright tumblr because, well, where else was I going to have a small Gundam Wing revival. Any fanart of the girls would go on the usual tumblr, but it is super hard to find art of them. ;__; Also, Junjou Romantica because I've been kind of dying

There's not going to be a second page for the Pot of Gold?? I am kind of genuinely cranky about that! I know I shouldn't be and I'll probably get right on over it when the English Countryside gets here (WHICH BETTER BE SOON, JEEZ) but I still feel kind of cheated a little! Not that I don't appreciate the lighthouses and fountains but, yeah, I got six fountains without even having to trade any gold in. Honestly. :/

I don't understand what the difference is between being able to store as many as you want and being able to store only 15--it just makes it more of a pain when you're collecting your gifts, to keep track. You'll still get to use all of them? So what's the difference?

Where are you at with your expansions? If I had one complaint about Cityville, it would be that the expansions are getting ridiculously expensive! I'm at 450,000 coins for, what, 12x12 space? Really, Zynga? (On the other hand, I suppose it does keep me playing and playing and playing.)

I really think it was just that her team of normals not being weak to anything but fighting types combined with NOT BEING ABLE TO GET A FIGHTING TYPE UNTIL JUST BEFORE THE GYM made it so that it was a lot tougher than it should have been. The first badge only let you control pokemon up to level 20, right? And my two main ones were both above that when I finally went back in yet they were still defeated. Hers were only, what? Level 18 or so? I think she was just a tricky gym leader. :/

Oh my god, your CityVille city must be absolutely huge! I'm nowhere near as big, only 95,000. And I don't play this game nearly as often or as much as FarmVille so even one expansion is very expensive for me... :\

I don't see the point in limiting the gifts in CityVille frankly... I mean, you can store up to 2000 items in your Inventory, waaaayyy more than FarmVille, yet item limits are imposed? What, are they going to drop that maximum number soon and want us to start clearing our Inventories?

I used a that bunny fighting thing with the second gym and it was whomped. Low kick is incredibly weak! Even with it being at super effective, it still got knocked out really easily. Hopefully the next guy isn't as harsh (even though I spent three hours leveling up just in case).

I probably don't spend as much time on Cityville as I do Farmville, but I do run in there and collect from my businesses every couple of hours just to keep the money rolling in. But it pains me that I didn't really pay attention to the collection bonuses until now--ALL THE EXTRA MONEY I COULD HAVE BEEN MAKING FOR THINGS I WAS ALREADY GOING TO DO--!! T__T

The really frustrating part about the second gym for me was that damn dog's super potion that couldn't be avoided. Even if, by all rights, I should have finally knocked it out, because you have to go through the super potion, there was always a sliver of life left, so, of course, it could still use fucking Take Down. The only good thing about that was when it was used on weaker Pokemon and it was hit with recoil, argh.

I don't even go and collect from the businesses outside of maybe once a day...Which explains why I'm so poor.

And what is this about the collections? I kept up with it in the beginning but then there were just so many that I haven't collected anything in a long time...

You kinda have to figure the Gym leaders will have some sort of potion at the very end though. I was expecting it but it still was really annoying to deal with. For me, it was Retaliate that kept getting me. And I didn't have any weaker Pokemon so maybe that's why Take Down wasn't even used against me.

If you don't care much about design, you can clump them together around some of your bigger decorations to get a bump in payout (especially if you can get it up to 20% to 30%) and go for the businesses that have better payouts, that helps a lot. And I find growing cranberries (which mature in 12 hours, so I just have to remember to go back twice a day) helps because, the more you complete those collections, the more you can turn them in for 3 energy. (Assuming Cityville doesn't put a limit on that, too.)

Oh, I almost forgot! The thing that's frustrating me about the collections that they're limiting those, so I can only get 10 of any given one? WHAT IF I WANT TO DO A DESIGN WITH BLUE HALE BALES, ZYNGA? WHY DO YOU CARE?
