CJ Dago

As usual very creative and imaginative city. The overview images look like a real city. The university campus is a highlight. Personally i like the mountainresort with the city as background a lot, i looked at it really long.

Good luck for your family. I hope you find time to build a new city. You have to complete your country ;)

This is probably your most realistic city. When I first scrolled through the pictures, I thought those were googlemaps screenshots :D I love the looks of this city... it's not too flashy but still has lots of details.

The most striking one for me is that dam. This alone would be 5 stars!

Like most others I wish you all the best for your new family. But I also hope you'll be back from time to time :)

Always love your Cjs, just don't forget to come back here when you have time!

Wow, this is impressive! I really love the level of creativity you show within Dago and it's surrounding area! The mining hole (I guess it's the tower of the nuclear power plant in no-collision mode?), the park in the centre of the city, the ski resort, and of course the powerful Maglev running right along the interstate highway :)

I have to say though that the Maglev line bugs me a bit, as it's running close to the drill hole, meaning that the line is quite exposed towards micro-earthquakes caused by drilling. Also, I can imagine future Maglev lines to be even faster, but the world record right now is at 600 km/h. And the forecasted average speed for the Japanese line lies in the 400-500 km/h range. So your numbers are excessively high :p

But that's nothing compared to the gloriousity you demonstrate within Dago. I really love the idea of the city being centered around the two hills. It matches with Dago's history as a mining town (nice idea with the old screenshots by the way).

I further think that you did an outstanding job by putting the highway right through the city, and by placing the Maglev line right next to it. I mean, the city's resources have been part of its hills, so everything else (streets, buildings, and other infrastructure) had to be put into the narrow valleys.

I also quite like your train station, although I would have wished for some more connections to the other buildings. I mean, it's a hub there, you have a bus station next to it, you have the local busses. So some more connections (skyway etc.) would make it look more like a real hub :) Also, some large parking lots are missing in my opinion (e.g. the airport parking garage).

What I really adore are your natural and garden-like structures, as well as the civic structures therein. For example the park itself, but also the golf course in there. And the ski resort within the snowy mountain. Or of course the dam within that beautifully designed gorge!

I wish you all the best in the near future, and I'm still hopeful to see some more towns by you (you never know)! And I would love to see the Maglev station in the other cities :)

First of all, congratulations on becoming a father. I wish you all the best in the world for you and your family and i understand that you will have no more time for the game but I hope you will find some time to build more. It doesn't have to be as big as a CJ. Just post a new idea.

If you won't be able to play again, I thank you for your contribution here. Your cities have had a huge impact on the way I build.

As for Dago, unfortunately I can't give you 6 stars, so I'll only give you 5.
I really liked how you made the waterfalls. I tried something similar, but you made a masterpiece. I also like how you built the mine. She is not perfect but I understand you. I've been struggling for some time to build a surface mine and an industrial area, but unfortunately I haven't found the necessary mods. The city itself is typical you, but I like it very much. I always admired the way you built the road network and the way you made the transition at the edge of the city. The port/moorings turned out again very well. About the custom buildings, there are too many to describe them all, but I only have words of praise.
The only thing I don't like are the bridges that enter the city. I also noticed in the other cities and I think I wrote to you in one. It gives me the feeling that there are some threads hanging from the city or you choose to build on the longest surface of water and I think it should be on the shortest road.

I forget the dam. I'm glad to see other building a dam, but in my opinion you built the middle part too big and the power line is not a very good choice. But otherwise I like it.
