Pleystowe ~ Adroman's Entry

adroman · November 06, 2009, 04:14:33 PM

Township of Pleystowe

Great Eastern Highway on the way into town... after crossing A. C. Smith Bridge over Pace Creek

Continuing into the Township over the J. Rowan Bridge, again crossing Pace Creek

Finally entering the Town past the St Patrick's Church and Cemetery

The center of Pleystowe, with the War Memorial plaza, Town Hall and Shopping area.

Pace Creek bending through the 'suburbs' (heh, can a town of <1000 people have suburbs?)

The mill. where most of the town's population is employed.

St Patrick's Church and the Town cemetery... with some wealthier houses.

The town's Football pitch, very popular in Pleystowe... (but, not today as it's the middle of the week

)

A shot of the Cane field, after harvesting... With the A.C. Smith Bridge in the top right corner

The shot of the Budget... now, time for some math:

$735 divide by 100 mutliplied by 60 gives us the minimum monthly income: $441
As $441 < $521... the budget meets the criteria

The overview of the Township... with important locations marked.

These pictures show that the town has progressed from a lower wealth community to a richer community... The Mouse Houses have been replaced with Matt325b's housing.

Good luck to all...
Havva good one,

Nice teaser. And I can't wait more pictures.

adroman · November 07, 2009, 07:22:43 PM

Many thanks all!

Your comments are very encouraging...

Now, I've had to restart Pleystowe, as I sorta accidently ruined the budget balance I had going

I'll have some more pictures soon.

Havva good one

Painful isn't it. I haven't had to worry about balancing the books for years. I'm finding that the hardest part of the challenge.

KoV Liberty · November 08, 2009, 06:21:47 AM

Yeah, me too. But THANK GOD this is a small city.

Nardo69 · November 08, 2009, 06:45:19 AM

Well, as I balance out the budgets of all of my cities that wasn't the hardest part for me but for a lot of eyecandy builders at the simforum.

On the other hand: a competition is always a challange, too, and too easy would be boring, wouldn't it?

Hehe, Version 2 already and you still have a few weeks to go

Looks like we are using the same shops

Just make sure you keep those books balanced.

Very cool! However, that litle area in between the house in the bottom left corner could be filled in with trees (hint, hint)

.

adroman · November 17, 2009, 02:25:33 AM

New first post...

I'll post the pictures again here, if they get replaced.

Earth quake · November 18, 2009, 06:17:05 AM

I prefer the second version of this city.
The town center is nice.

kwakelaar · November 18, 2009, 12:06:08 PM

The memorial plaza looks great, nice work on this entry.

adroman · November 30, 2009, 03:25:35 AM

Unfortunately, I will be withdrawing from the competition, due to my less-than-satisfactory behaviour.

Thanks for the comments guys, but... such is life.

Havva good one,
Adrian.

EDIT: Again, I have changed my mind. I will be entering in the Competition...

threestooges · November 30, 2009, 01:01:29 PM

I don't think that's any reason to take yourself out of the competition. It is your decision however. If you decide to change your mind again, you have until the deadline. The choice is yours though.

adroman · November 30, 2009, 03:33:59 PM

I'm back in... My mind changes like... well, I don't have a simile!

Anyway, the first post has been updated with newer, better pictures...
Enjoy!

Havva good one,
Adrian.
