    Magical fire wiped out all my chickens, left everything else unscathed. Unable to recover. Thinking of eating children.

    12th turn in and I have $1624. (Why the heck do they measure it in dollars?)

    Peanuts are less risky than they make it out to be.

    Between turn 12 and turn 20 I managed to get all projects except one.

    By turn 30 I had $100,326, 4 harvesters, 5 barns and 8 cows.

    I'm going to end this game at turn 35. I have $82,918. Between turn 30 till here I got hit by sickness and all my cattle dying. Boo hiss!

    I ended my game and I've got a score of 1755. You get 800 points for constructing all projects. 10 points per turn, 10 points per year in school, 25 per baby born and 25 per marriage. My suggestion for projects would be to get representation asap so you can get the crop insurance. Reps also protect against life saving drain so that is good too. Hospital and edumacation should be the next if you want to go for points, just keep making babies and educating them. Too bad the money you've saved doesn't seem to have any bearing on your final score.

    Oh, and what have I learned from this game? "Girls are in ur 3rd world county, NOT doing it with ur d00dz". I couldn't get anyone to marry my new head of the house until the 30th turn, even with all his bling. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    not ONLY babies, silly <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />. Their diet consists of a variety of food. Including babies.

    Which project do you guys recommend we leave for last? I left crop insurance for last because I couldn't bear to do without the others, but I guess I could ignore the road system one instead? I only ended the game with $22k, so I'm sure if I had crop insurance I could have planted whatever the hell I wanted instead of diversifying like I had to. Or maybe I could go without the clinic, because regardless, I'd have enough cash to pay for medicine... I dunno.

    What? I thought this game was supposed to be impossible to win, like some sort of teaching program. I guess I just suck. Good thing I didn't try my hand at agriculture school..

    I didn't bother with the school place. The crop insurance was very useful one year when I planted all peanuts and bam, peanut famine. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad-fix.gif" />

    Still came out on top with over $10,000 in 15 turns, though.
