Show us your games oddities

I noticed that sometimes odd things happen in our games and thought it might be interesting to see some of the things the game can do.

Take a look at these for example

If you find some more odd stuff lets see it here

hehe, that is funny bug (?).

Brings a new meaning to land and sea

Now all i gotta do is find a floating lorry. hehe

I've noticed that it only happens if your working port is too close to a coner of the map

I have seen that happen before. Great idea TheTeaCat

TheTeaCat · November 27, 2006, 04:17:53 PM

Thanks Alfred.

I seen lots of other stuff as well, just got to find it happening at the right time and get a pic. As they say keep your eyes peeled you never know what we going to fnd.

How about trying to find all the gnomes and get pics of them. You know since getting the game, long time ago now it seems, I have never actually seen one of them. I know they are there but no matter what I do I can't find them.

PS I AM A MAYOR WOHOOOOOOOOO

Thanks Alfred, Bat

Noticed my new chain of office on Avatar? lol

bat · November 28, 2006, 11:19:59 AM

no, I didn't notice it, but it looks nice

NikNik · November 29, 2006, 04:00:14 AM

Congrats on becoming a mayor TheTeacat!

Yeah, I would like to see some gnomes too. I also never ever seen them and they should be around somewhere or are they scared off by the massive non-EA material I grow in my cities?

TheTeaCat · December 07, 2006, 04:15:57 PM

I found a Gnome!!

look CLOSELY in the first o and you'll see a Blue red and white "Thing"
This is the Gnome

He 's a bit clearer in this pic

Just so you know he doesn't do anything except blink on and off for a few seconds once a month.

The location for him differs with each landmark and some he doesn't appear at all. I've got half way through the landmark menu but i believe that there are something different with the rewards buildings(only origional Maxis stuff)

I shall try and catch a few more of them if I can.

That is verry weird

Haven't seen that before or atleast, I didn't notice

Alfred.Jones · December 07, 2006, 10:49:23 PM

That is wicked!! I will keep my eye out for some

bat · December 08, 2006, 05:24:03 AM

very funny! (or have you added this on the pictures???)

NikNik · December 08, 2006, 07:57:42 AM

YES! That's a gnome for sure!

Now we need a and a gnomics laboratory to produce some gnome-clones.

Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Travelocity is everywhere now-a-days. That damn travelling Gnome!!

bat · December 10, 2006, 01:54:57 AM

Alfred.Jones · December 11, 2006, 08:42:30 PM

That is very cool! A gnome on the sphinx

Rayden · December 12, 2006, 01:34:17 PM

It's not only the game that does odd things, we do it as well, and more often, that's for sure. This is what happens when you overdue something.

This is what happened on one of my first atempts to build a land bridge

Luckilly I had this little water vacuum cleaner handy and problem solved
