Title: VALTIO
Post by: Krio on May 14, 2007, 01:32:52 AM
VALTIO

A long time ago, after Earth was formed, unknown mapper created map, which looks like Ireland to game called SimCity 4! And then..something BIG happened!

KRIO BENGT DOWNLOADED THE MAP AND STARTED A NEW REGION!

It's now here in Devotion! Only Krio knows, what this MD will bring to folks! Maybe more exclamation marks! A story perhaps! Politics! But one thing is sure..VALTIO (the state) will make Shadow Assasin's Ensenada burn in trash bin, VALTIO will demolish Glenni's Vandals Fjella, eat imgoingtoeatyou's EYECANDY, VALTIO will bring revolution to Osturland, VALTIO will fill the Grand Canyon of jeronji! And much, much more!

Bengt, glad to see you brought Valtio over here.  That teaser shot there really is award worthy! :thumbsup:  I really like your usage of Diagonal Streets and the seawalls, as well as the general Euro ambience of it.

I rather enjoyed Qaddro while you had it going, and I'm glad to see you have a new MD here.  And that flag is truly awesome. 

Looking forward to seeing more of Valtio!

Silence in the church, or the invisible pink unicorn will throw meteors from heaven.

REPLIES

Tarkus: Of course you like it! Anyone likes VALTIO! Or if they don't..then..the police will have some questions.
And the flag is awesome in my opinion too, it was "fun" to make it. Unique flag in CJ/MD history perhaps?

Yoder7652: VALTIO will serve you. Now watch them.

THE GREATEST BESTEST BIGGEST
SUPERIOR UPDATE PROJECT WHAT
DEVOTION HAVE EVER SEEN!

You may have seen my previous update called "I'm not dead yet!" - and to be frank it was just superior, no lethal. I just didn't put enough effort into it so I have decided to start THE GREATEST  BESTEST BIGGEST DEVOTION UPDATE PROJCET WHAT SIMTROPOLIS HAVE EVER SEEN! I DO NOT FAIL! I DO NOT!

________

Before it was simple 6 pictures "mocking / promoting" Osturland, but where is fun in that when we can mock some naabs! But now I have THE GREATEST  BESTEST BIGGEST SUPERIOR UPDATE PROJCET WHAT DEVOTION HAVE EVER SEEN! It will spam several updates without pictures. naabish? I know it's naabish and I probably laugh for it several days.

_______

No one dosen't read these texts, so weather here in Helsinki is beautiful, sunny +15C and little windy. I cleaned my room tonight, oh boy it was hard work to remove those furnitures. And I made a BAT ready, will be in STEX soon.

______

So far myTHE GREATEST  BESTEST BIGGEST SUPERIOR UPDATE PROJCET WHAT DEVOTION HAVE EVER SEEN has not shown any pictures, but I it will show +100 region pictures and +1000 city pictures in one update! AAARGGH! I'm now forming my playing cards to make a pyramid. Of course it will fail like that one CJ. And because I'm good in batting, I show much my buildings in my THE GREATEST  BESTEST BIGGEST SUPERIOR UPDATE PROJCET WHAT DEVOTION HAVE EVER SEEN.

Very nice (sometimes humorous updates). I really like your CBD, but it could be zoomed out more to get a sense of location, because then you're just showing a bunch of random skyscrapers.

I can spot a few U2 quotes here and there, as well.  ;) If you want to be funny, use YOUR OWN song lyrics. Hehe. I just read your comment on my CJ--but don't worry I can accept criticism.  :)

Good luck.
