Ben's Top Ten +10 @ SC4D

[benedict]

Hi, Kergelen. Thank you, and happy new year!

Hi, APSMS. I think you can be both... it isn't uncommon in any year to do well on the year-end chart with what feels like not many updates. RL is getting more under control, so even though there will be a few catch up weeks to go, I'm able to stay on top of the stats. Happy new year!

Hi, Schulmanator. Well done. In a few days time you'll be able to see if you pulled off a top ten sweep for 2015. Happy new year!

District of Wenzel holds on to the top spot again.

Japan Recreation returns, and Teiko is new.

Happy new year, Ben. Thank you for working as hard as ever on the BTT.

Congrats packersfan for being first and everyone else for making it on the list.

Finally on that list! Whew. Thanks everyone.

Hi, art128. Thank you, and thanks for all the great MD updates you've brought us in 2014, and now 2015.

Hi, jmsepe. Bear with me while we get caught up.

To be honest: it feels totally strange to sit on the first place with a NonSimCity-MD. 

Thanks a lot for your work! 

[benedict]

Hi, carlfatal. A bit unusual, yes. The versions of BTT over at ST have had a few non-SC4 images as headliners over the years.

Almost there. . thanks for diligent tallying Ben!

And of course congrats Carl! 

[carlfatal]

Thank you both, Benedict for the work, that is a real big advertisement for our work here, and also Eric for the congrats! I am still surprized, that Sims 3 could become such an interesting thing here. 

I am not sure, if any city simulation game could give me the feeling, that I have, if I plan a town house after house, inside and outside. I mean, it is liveless most of the time, and there is nothing I "have" to do to build (although there are the usual limitations, but is there a game without?). Sadly this series is one of the most expensive ones, you can buy, and so I can´t advise anyone to try it out. The prize is much too high, even if you love this game like I do now (with most of the addons).

And it is no alternative to a good City simulation game, like SC4 was and does become ever more by community made content.

Last but not least I am not sure, if I should change the game and the engine for my next project again... 

[noahclem]

Congratulations Carl and excellent work Ben 

[benedict]

Hi, vortext. Thanks for your patience

Hi, carlfatal. In my experience, non-SC4 MDs do well because the author shows us something interesting - not necessarily just an interest in the game itself, although that can play a role.

Hi, noahclem. Thanks!

Good to see Eloaria for the first time number one. 

And thanks for your work and your perseverance in the list again. A work that unites the community. 

[benedict]

Hi, Kergelen. Yes, I thought so, too. And I love the image I used as background - thanks for creating that. Happy to do something for the community.
