Argh! Can't get the Angry Birds Rap out of my head... My 7-yr-old son and his YouTube addiction! He memorized the entire chorus.... "Hey dad, just search on YouTube and it'll come right up." Yeah, thanks a lot buddy...
Ok, back on topic....
nyteowl: I am so envious of you and how you were able to get all kinds of California businesses.
Way back Thanksgiving, when I was just learning to play MT2, I was curious about the search function and not knowing what I was doing, I turned off my location and inadvertently set my "secondary" location to Paris France. That's why so many of my businesses are French ones that I purchased myself. I've tried to re-set to New York City, but it never worked.
Oh, that's how you got the French businesses. Nice! You could have done far worse with your location selection.
🙂
So I'm stuck with San Francisco and Paris. SF has almost nothing worthwhile. Whenever I look to franchise anything attractive even in the Bay Area around SF, it's always in Bucks and I don't know why. 🙁 San Jose might even have been better than SF.
But I think I'm almost ready to go back to the original way of playing--creating a town filled with good eateries and pretty to live in. Right now, with only offices and Stock Exchanges, it's boring. 😉
The SF bay area has the tech companies... Google, Apple, Facebook, Yahoo, etc. Haven't tried looking for Netflix, yet. I'll probably head down to L.A. and Orange County in a couple of weeks. See what I can find. When I first started playing MT2, I thought I scored big when I found a 700 popularity business.
🙂
If you're in SF and turn your location services on, the business around here should be available in coins... hmm. don't know what's going on.
You can check out my town and see if my bay area businesses are available via coins...

Yes you can, I'm using an iPhone 4s.
I change mine at least once a week, and have never deleted my app.
I'm also playing on my iPhone 4s (verizon). It's asked me for my location before, but I really didn't take advantage of it. Now, it's stuck at New York when I turn location services off. Completely closing and opening the app doesn't change the behavior. Oh well....
I also find it interesting that two people in the same location and both using iPhone 4S to play, get different timing schedules for jobs.
