I've always considered myself an excellent Sim person, I've only ever played the original Sim town, city 2000/3000 and a little of 4, but once I got really into it, I could do anything they asked of me. And finally got good enough to make money in a couple no matter what, saved some desperate towns and rebuilt massive cities. But I may just not know anyone who plays the Simcity games so much as I.
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.
People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....
