Little bit about me
1. My name is Judy. 2. I was born, raised and remain in Atlanta, Georgia. 3. I, like many others, became addicted early to mid November 2011. 4. Discovered this wonderful game browsing iTunes after receiving my first iphone. The tons of positive reviews peek my curiosity. 5. I love everything about this game from building a local business, making it grow, and especially making money from my little citizens. 6. Crazy little random facts: I'm a natural blonde, over fifty, and retired. Also addicted to the pc, online flash games, and an avid ebook reader.

1. My name is Jennifer. 2. I was born in Oregon, raised in Seattle. 3. I started playing MT2 in early January. About a week into playing, there was a large snowstorm and I was trapped in the house for 3 days. Let me just say I spent the entire 3 days glued to my iphone…. tap tap tapping!! 4. I downloaded MT2 because it was in the top free games list and looked right up my alley. My favorite types of games are time management and building. One of my all-time favorite games is Civilization. I’ve been an avid gamer for 15+ years. 5. MT2 is the best app I’ve downloaded over the past 3 years. I cannot believe it is free. What are my favorite things about the game? 1st off – I love the look of the game. It is just so cute. I really like looking at different people’s towns and sending them gifts. We have a great community and I love reading the boards. That’s my favorite part of the game. 6. Random fact – I love roller coasters and go to amusement parks several times a year.

1. First name? 2. Where do you live? 3. When did you start playing MT2? 4. How did you find out about MT2? 5. Favorite thing about MT2? 6. One or two random facts about you
1. Chrissie 2. Near Auckland, New Zealand 3. About 3 weeks ago 4. It was on iTunes top 50 list 5. The forums. Seriously. They are full of people who actually want to help each other. How cool is that? 6. I tripped over Bob Geldof's dog leash once in London. Dog was fine. I was fine. Bob was apologetic. And I have flown over the South Pole. It's white and you can't see the pole - just flags.

Hello everyone, My name is Jenny, but many people call me Water (hence the City of H2O). I physically located in Toronto, but thanks to the tips from this forum, my town is now in NYC. I started playing MT2 in November 2011. And I started reading this forum around the same time (Macrumors). My hubby downloaded MT2 for me. It’s hard to control things in real life, and that’s why I love having my little town where I can control everything. Random facts about me: - I bought my hubby the iPad for our anniversary, 2 years ago.
- Then I got addicted to Harbour Master and Bakery Story on the iPad. He could never use his iPad.
- Then he downloaded MT2, hoping to get rid of my additions to Harbour Master and Bakery Story. Unfortunately, I’m now addicted to MT2, and he still can not use his iPad.

I love this thread! Sols: can you post a pic of your town in the original game? I’m interested to see what it looks like. Kechibam: I know what you mean. I’ve never joined and participated in a forum before. Syno: I had no idea MT2 was the app that Alec Baldwin was playing when he threw his airplane fit! Now I better understand why he did what he did. It’s also neat to hear about you building houses in Second Life. I’ve always been very intrigued by that game and wanted to play. Russellville: no one could explain better than you, what they like about MT2. You cracked me up when you said, “At first it was building a cool neighborhood, that quickly turned to the best properties, then it shifted to greed and collecting coins and green bucks, now i have settled into the forum and the interaction of the game.” Aatthew: I had to post this because Charmander is the best Pokemon of all time.

There are 12x12 land in my "future version of MT2!" (you can't blame a girl for dreaming big!) Hubby's B-day is coming up, I guess I'll have to buy him his own Ipad at this point.

1. My first name is AJ 2. I live in San Diego 3. I started playing in oct/nov '11 4. I have no idea how I found out about MT2! Lol I guess maybe I did 'genius' and it popped up...? 5. My favorite thing about MT2 was that working towards the goal of having my town look and be the way it is now. Land complete, houses just-so. I made a town I think it'd be fun to live in.... But now, there's kinda no where to go with it!? Lol so now, I just like having found the forum. And the holiday content, and being able to renovate when inspiration strikes. 6. Random facts about me.... I LOVE to garden and especially love to raise orchids. I love to cook and am terrified of lizards. ;D

1. First name? Krystal 2. Where do you live? Madison, Wisconsin. A little story. I used to live in Alabama, but in the beginning of 2008, I met a guy through.. you won't believe this.. FORUMS!! They were some fan forums dedicated to a MMO game. We dated online (sadly, I tried this many times with failure, but I knew this guy was different) and talked on voice chat for hours every single day. In 2009, he came to visit me in Alabama. We connected instantly. A couple months later, I visited him in Wisconsin. I fell in love with the city and was dying to leave my horrible life (drugs/alcohol/abuse littered my family) to be with him. So in March 2010, I moved up to Wisconsin to live with him happily ever after. <3 This was by far the biggest, riskiest, and best decision I've ever made. Needless to say, the administrator that I sent my 2-weeks notice to was in SHOCK at my "reason for leaving" LOL. "I think you're crazy, but good luck!" 3. When did you start playing MT2? January 2012. 4. How did you find out about MT2? Was bored of my current games, so I browsed the App store for top games. 5. Favorite thing about MT2? I love games with a creative aspect. It's fun to see what people do with their towns. 6. One or two random facts about you. Well, aside from being crazy and moving to the North to be with my boyfriend.. I was a Nursing major in college, fresh out of high school. I didn't feel it was for me, so I dropped out. I've been lashed at by many people for this decision, but I don't like Nursing. Nurses get a lot of beef that people don't realize. They have so much on their shoulders. I've been working as a CNA for 4 years now (2 in Assisted Living & 2 on Skilled Nursing). I am thinking about getting a 2nd job and throwing that money straight into savings to get a nice pool going for when I hopefully return to college to study Respiratory Therapy. If THAT works out, then I can further specialize into sleep study. (polysomnography) Also! I love to draw. If anyone has the app DrawSomething, then hit me up (username cookiekrysp) and we can draw stuff to each other. Yay!

AJ, I'm thinking you wouldn't want to live in Florida. We have millions of lizards running all over the place. I wouldn't last a week. I've had my fair share of "run ins" on vacations in tropical places.... And there's just no way. I've got about 4-5 resident lizards in my backyard. We agree to keep our distance. But the little tropical ones are sneaky. And slimy looking. nope. Not having it. They make my palms sweat. And my heart race. Yikes.

OH.MY.GAWD. You must be my long-lost sibling! I am terrified with those lizards too. And I am originally from the tropical islands --- we had lizards INSIDE OUR HOUSE! When I would see a lizard in the room... I could never sleep. I'd follow it with my eyes to make sure I always knew where it was at. I remember punching someone in the face when he scared me with a lizard! Seriously. Glad they didn't follow me here in Cali! AJ, I'm thinking you wouldn't want to live in Florida.

IN the house would be a deal breaker and all it would take for me to call a real estate agent. All jokes aside, that's a no go. We once looked at a resort on an island, I think it was in the Maldives (i may be wrong on this location exactly, but was in that region). Many reviewers talked about lizards IN their rooms. We did not go. I'd never be able to sleep! I don't know how you did this?! Kudos to you for bravery on living with while you did. Facing fear head on, my friend is the adventure of life.

Are talking geckos. Like on the geico commercial? Sort of. But the gecko in the geico commercial is animated and has some quirky personality. I'm talking house lizards --- like the plain brown ones you see on ceilings and walls! (Not the green ones outside on the grass, or field, or garden.) I was going to post a picture, but as I googled it and saw the images --- my hair started raising on my arms! Couldn't do it. Now I couldn't remove the images from my head. Dang. (Sorry, we've turned the mayoral survey into a lizard discussion.) Moving on...

Here's what I'm talking about: These two little guys hang out on the window ledge outside of my office EVERY day: This one "fights" his reflection. Every day! This one I took outside in my backyard. LOL. Holy crap! As I was writing this, another little guy started climbing up my window. Just took this pic. ENJOY!
