Maybe cuz i added you and was waiting for reply you got the error but I have changed to ForresttheCat (no spaces but note two t's and the town is still Grayson) for anyone else reading this.
 
I was able to upgrade the ice castle to level 3 with one day left so I am storing more items for next year. I have 22/42 bananas with 2 days to go. If I get my 1 banana per hour, it should be no problem. Does anyone have a guess as to the prize at the end of the month? I get either 1 or 2 city credits per day from that event. I need to hoard my city credits for the big power plant if I want to add happiness. A note to others, save your contest medals for when you can buy pretty decent happiness buildings. I have 52 right now and they are usually 12 city credits each.

Reading the wording I am very wary that you actually get anything apart from a 'certificate' at the end. You get cc and experience every day :-(

that would be very disappointing.
 
ok going slow on getting from 52k to 0 but working on it. training drivers while i wait to upgrade so i dont have down time. need to get to lvl 10 to get a better move on the ppl! Trying to get my mean streak on and decline things from the ppl to get to I think is 500 declines to get that award. I am only accepting things if I get something like a lens parts etc or a gold key. This is hard to decline (for me) cuz I want to help and get the xp or coins LOL. but this is for the good of my city.

Does anyone know how many drivers you need for advancing lvl8 lvl 9 and lvl 10 for the terminal? So I can get the drivers preped for each lvl?

Can anyone send me trowels? I need 8 more ForresttheCat (note 2 t's) my game name and my city is Grayson. I am adding ppl as I go through the the older thread. On page 72 (yeah like my ppl it is going slow!)

Thanks in advance

Level 8: 90,000 + 6 drivers
Level 9: 110,000 + 6 drivers
Level 10: 130,000 + 7 drivers

Check out the Big Business Wiki page. Lots of great information there!
 
I finally got my ice castle completed last night and finished the level 2 upgrade this afternoon. Now its on to level 3 with 2 days to go! I also have one stinkin milkshake left to complete the special event! Hopefully I can complete that this evening. Hello happiness level increase :)
 
I managed to get 27 bananas (out of needed 36) so far. Later tonight I will buy the remainder and shelve BB once again. Maybe I will log in once a day to get free credits. The holiday events drained my stamina and the never-ending fire alarm made the game totally unbearable. Also, I don't know if you have this glitch too, but sometimes the sound of fire or water gets looped or something and I have to restart the game to get rid of the noise. It started right after the Thanksgiving update.

I keep the sound turned off on my game.

I turned the sounds off. I can't deal with all the noise
 
I am down to 49k from 59k! I accidently stored one of my farms. UGH! Now I cant get it out until 61 or 63k but I am going to live with it. But even with that my cash is now up over 200k from average of 89k. So things are great.

I am looking for info on what xp is needed for lvl up. I have looked on that w!k! site and although I am only up to reviewing prior post abt page 100 I haven't seen anything like it. Any known sources....?

As far as I know there is no info of this kind. Easy enough to work out though. Make a note of how many it takes to go up by 1%and multiply by 100. Each level increases the number of Xp required.

Well, Started declining almost all citizens and just got my dictator badge! made croissants at the bakery and got the 10 for the war and made lots of money. Workign on cheese and some cookies and should get those done today. I just hit 500k in cash. and I am gonna upgrade my terminal to lvl 9 cuz i finished 6 drivers and they are ready to go. And getting 130 more gingerbread men

After reading this forum I feel more in control. Rephrase, after getting through the first 150 pages! LOL

I appreciate all who are contributing to this place!

O and I just kept my bakery going or any of my places that makes things - even if a small belt and the cash is starting to add up. Next to stop looking at the citizen count in my town every time I send out a bus! It will go much faster if I dont look all the time.

I went through a lot of the assorted contracts that are available and found a combination that gets me cash at a pretty decent clip. On days that I am off (with no plans besides laying on the couch watching football), or if I can manage to multitask BB alongside work, here's what I try to keep going:

Apple Pies at the Bakery: Profit of 8,520 per hour
Muffins at the Confectionery: Profit of 6,570 per hour
Chairs at the Furniture Factory: Profit of 5,940 per hour
Belts at Weaving Factory: Profit of 4,680 per hour
Oil at Oil Refinery: Profit of 1,310 per hour
Baking Soda at Chemical Plant: Profit of 1,490 per hour
Salt at Mine: Profit of 1,440 per hour

The above numbers take into account raw material costs but do not take into account raw material production time. But a lot of them you can produce while the good are being produced simultaneously (if you have enough factories for it though). For the fruit and flax, I have 5 farms so I have 3 fruits and 2 flax going at the same time. Grains are such a short crop that I just bust out 20-30 and then keep the milling plant running. I have two ranches so the leather is not a problem either.

I also make some longer duration raw materials overnight - vegetables/cacao beans, meat etc... that I can use to produce high profit goods during the day at the food plant, toy store, radio factory etc...

If you want to take it up a notch, you find some shorter contracts that might be more profitable on an hourly basis.

This plan gives me a total of ~30,000 profit per hour. On a good day, working the game for about 10 hours or so can easily net me about 300k in a day. A lot of this might be overkill to some. I am trying to get some cash built generated to purchase and upgrade the last remaining factories (cosmetics & electronics). Also want to buy lots of land so I can spread all my factories out to make it look a little cleaner.

Now I certainly don't have the time to do this everyday, though with winter not allowing much outdoor stuff to do, I find myself keeping my factories humming on the weekend to get me some quick cash :)

If anyone else has similar strategies they would like to share, or suggestions I'd love to hear!
