I launched it in the Cafe yesterday, but thought I would mention it here as well because some of you do not frequent the Cafe. We are already up to a population of 58! Please visit if you would like, and stop by once a day to add to our city..... Here is the doorway to Seti City... The gates are open. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

I don't get it??? What is it? and how does it work? I don't see anything happening when i visit the city. Is something suppose to happen? As far as i can make out, every time i visit, there is one new building or something like that. So if i am correct, its really just a type of "Hit Counter" that just counts people visiting the page each day. Is that what it is? ....It seems a bit lame, or maybe i'm just missing something.

It's just a game to see how many people will work together towards a common goal...not unlike crunching Seti. Each person can only add one thing to the city per day, so to build up the city, a lot of people have to participate and visit the city each day to keep it growing. A community project.... And once the population is large enough, different things have to be added and built up to keep things in balance with the population, so it should become a little more of a game at that point. I see that since this morning, our population has risen to 82, and enough factories have been built to keep everybody employed. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

No, you do not have to register. I think the map will get larger as more things are added, in the lower right corner is a control that will allow you to pan around within the map. To build a factory, you click on the link on the left hand side. Remember, you can only do this once each day. As the population grows, more of the links will become active.

Its a poorly animated hit counter that just leaves people like me wondering why i visited the website in the first place. I will try to hit the website every day if i can! ID: 704640 ·

Agreed, it is nothing fancy..just a game of a cooperative effort, not a website to spend hours on. It will be nice to have you visit. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."

I just wanted to set one up not as 'my' city, but as a group effort by the Seti community. Our city. And I visited yours as well. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting."
