My city would be technologically advanced. Also, it would follow some of the basic principles of communism, like one person grows grain, another raises meat, another does sewing, but they share it all equally and without charging. People would be free to choose what they want to do, and any extra grains or textiles or such would be exported to purchase things that weren't made in the community, so they could be free of cost.

No one would go hungry. There would be all the basic nessecities and so much more for the inhabitants, and all they would need to do is contribute their bit. The old, the sick, the little kids, all of them would be held in the highest regard and taken care of as such. There would be no dying at home alone because someone would always be around to help.

Course... this is in a perfect world!

I would love to built my own City. Probly not to many ppl in my City, not like NY or LA. I dont want it to big. And there wouldnt be ne roads in my City, becoz I Hate cars. No roads but lots of Bike paths everywere and like sidewalks that move for old ppl or ppl that are to tired to walk or bike. Thered be lots of parks and Trees and lakes so every thing is green and nice so ppl want to be outside all the time. And thered be lots to do. Water Parks, Skate Parks, Sports Fields, that kind of stuff. Thered be Concerts and stuff outside all the time to so ppl will hang out outside with other ppl istead of always bein at home alone all the time on their PC.

No aliens uless they come down to earth and want to live there. Ya thered be lots of Animals all over the place and a great Zoo but not one with cages becoz I Hate seein animals in cage. PPl in my City woldnt live Undergound unless they want to like live in their basement or sumpthin. No there wouldnt be a Presdent in my City but Id be King of it if the ppl wanted me to. I wouldnt battle other citys unless they attack me frist. But if they did then my Army and Air Force would Punk em. No everything wouldnt be blue in my city unless ppl want to paint their stuff blue. They can have it whut ever color they want it. Like my faverite colors green and brown so thats probly whut Id paint my house. Children wouldnt have to go to school unless they want to but They can if they want and if if they want to learn other stuff like how to fix Engines or make Art then that sok w. me. Ppl wouldnt have to ride Horses unless they want to. Horses are coo but Id rather ride my bike I think. No there wouldtn be Asperger's village every body would live Together like freinds becoz we are all in Peace in my City! :lol:

Parents would be responsible for their children's education, textbooks and supplies would be tax deductible, standardized testing required by the state but no state taught education.

Above ground walking, hiking, jogging, biking, or horses would be the main transportation; their would be no use of fossil fuels and the above ground land would look similar to a national park.

Below ground their would be tunnels, stairs, elevators, and subways.

Most of them would be Pokémon trainers, relaxing in my resort city.
Would their be aliens there?
Are Pokémon considered alien?
Would their be animals walking everywhere?
Replace alien with Animals and see above.
Would people live underground? would there be a President?
Both abaove and below. More or less, self governing.
Would people battle other city's ?
War? Are you mad?
Would everything be blue in your city?
By requirement of the laws of variety, NO!
Would children not have to go to school?
Well, the type of schooling ultimately depends if they want to train Pokemon or not, but the basics would be taught.
Would you ride horses everywhere?
Horses? Only if you can handle a Rapidash or Poneta.
Would their be no transport ?
No, there would be transport for those who don't train Pokémon, nonpolluting of course.
Would their be a aspergers village?
Would asperger's exist?

The city would be like the old London.

Most of them would be Mods and Punk Rockers, in my city.

Yes. Green ones with red eyes, and white wings.

Quote:

There be cats, dogs and rats walking all over.

Pokemon are cute little animals, to me. :O)

People would live both under and above ground. Boris Johnson would be the president of my city.

Bobbies and blue boxes.

The commoners wouldn't ride horses. Only some of the guards would.

My city would have Routemasters, black cabs and a subway system.

There would be one, right in the centre of the city.

I hope so.

All the buildings in the city would be smaller than five stories. They would be fairly simplistic and practical in design. The city would be designed to allow fresh water to flow in for drinking and for plants. There would be room set up for plants to grow. Many trees grow alongside the buildings, and flowers bloom everywhere. Wildlife would be welcome throughout the city, provided it didn't prove dangerous.

There would be no automobiles in the city. There are parks for leisure, gardens with fresh food, and markets selling various crafts. People may also display art or perform in the streets. Generally people would travel by walking or bike riding. For longer trips, there would be electric trains.

The people are self-sufficient and trained to defend themselves. The people collectively manage the government. Generally, the people are friendly and outgoing. People are free to do anything as long as it doesn't pose a threat to anyone else.

Definitely not like my current city in Sim City 3000 which is pretty much bankrupt and has no Police, but it has twelve museums (Insomnia + Sim City 3000 = Bad City Planning)

I've been playing them for years (since the SNES port of the original, with it's fantastic music) and have done several very good cities, but that gets boring after a while so now I like to create cities solely for catastrophe/bad planning purposes.

I think I would have all my WP friends and my family and friends from the "real" world come live with me. I would have many different worlds within my world. My biggest one is my dream forest, the rich green trees hovering over me :D I would have a lot of waterfalls and beautiful sunsets and sunrises everyday :D I would also have a shopping mall world, without as much of the noisy people. I would have a button that would turn off the simulated lights (well, not COMPLETELY, but to a reasonable level) for the WP people who don't like lights. I love them for some reason though - they simulate me! I would have to earn my money (otherwise I wouldn't apperiate the stuff I get), but it would be through fun minigames :D
Then I would have a pond, with frogs, lilypads, and a lot of beautiful flowers (especially ORANGE LILIES!)
I would also have an anime world, where you would change into an anime character of your choice (It doesn't have to be from a television show - I would pick something like my avatar) :D
I would be happy in my worlds :D

I also would have POKEMON :D Heehee
Maybe I would have a section where I didn't have to battle though (because if the pokemon were real, I couldn't stand them getting hurt) and just do contests :D

I also would not have too many buildings, as that would ruin the effect of my beautiful nature worlds. For those ones, there would be some study log cabins that you could build to your pleasure and have as many bedrooms as you want!

The SNES one was the best!

I like the parakeet's idea of an underground city... but mine would have to be:

What would the people be like? They would be nice and considerate. I'm not a believer in human nature, so I think - given the proper environment - there can be a utopia.
Would there be aliens? Ianno, why not? So long as they abide by the law.
Would there be animals walking everywhere? Indeed there would be, though often lead by their human counterparts. Paths would be dirt, no cars.
Would people live underground? No, but surplus food and supplies in case of emergency would be stored underground.
Would there be a President? Naw, government would not extend beyond the city limits, and the city government would consist of elders and elected leaders, ALL decisions made by the council. Every member of the city above age 14 would vote for council members, not on a regular basis, but only when someone's job in the council comes into question (they could be voted out).
Would people battle other city's ? There would possibly be cities far away that desire to initiate hostilities against my city, however my city would never initiate hostilities against another. Isolationism for the win.
Would everything be blue in your city? No, but buildings would be made of wood and stone, plant life would be plentiful.
Would children not have to go to school? School would consist of children hanging out with the elders of the city while the adults go about their work. Children can learn more from one old man or woman in a month than a year in school. Of course, I'm leaning toward a non-technological city, though mathematic and scientific principles would exist - just not advanced sciences like genetics, computers, etc. The children would be taught math and basic world sciences by their community (elders, parents, etc.). Books would also be plentiful.
Would you ride horses everywhere? Oh, yes.
Would their be no transport ? Modern transport? Definetly not. You walk or ride a horse\mule everywhere.
Would their be an asperger's villiage? Naw, though Aspies would be treated as equals socially. My city is not shallow, and has very little social pressure on a person at all.

Perhaps this stems from a desire of mine to go back to simpler times, without the constraints of medieval war and kings and lords. Also, there would be no theistic religion in my city, though perhaps a measure of pantheism and divine respect for nature would exist without the deluded personification of a diety. People would act on the golden rule and cooperate with each other.
