bigbridge59: You asked a few questions in post #206. My replies are from what I've observed while playing. I believe they are correct, but I welcome anyone to share their observations too.

Q- All my other business that I built up from scratch are BLUE. Will eventually my blue backgrounds change over to another color after I complete so many check-ins which go to jobs being completed ?
- Blue indicates businesses you bought on your own.
- Purple indicates businesses that you franchised.
- As far as I know there is no color to indicate which of your businesses were franchised by others.
Q-how many levels are there in the BLUE screen and then what happens?
- I don't think there are levels per se. Blue just shows they are businesses you bought.
Q-How many levels in the franchised levels them what happens if those levels Are reached?
Prior to the Jan 19 update, the top level of a business was 5.
After Jan 19, the highest I've seen for any business is 9. (Hopefully there are or will be more.)
A business' level is increased after completing X number of jobs.
From what I can figure:
from level 1 to level 2, requires 3 jobs
2 to 3, 15
3 to 4, 30
4 to 5, 60
5 to 6, 120
6 to 7, 240
7 to 8, 480
8 to 9, 960
9 to 10, unknown
Q-I gone to the game center page and that only page shows me what job% I have accomplished. Is there some other page in the game center to go to look up other players achievements/ or whatever else? Domineer to go app store and download something to go along with this question?
Sorry, I know almost nothing about Game Center.
To Everyone: I am very interested to hear what folks can say about using Game Center. Any advantages? Any disadvantages? Do you like GC? Any tips and tricks on using GC? Thanks for sharing!
Bowman88 and to the other poster who suggested it too: An ATM to convert coins into Booyah Bucks is a good idea. I wonder what the conversion might be? 1,000 coins for 1 buck? Less? More? It could still be expensive.
OnlyLifted: I found your new town. You are moving along. I sent a few coins your way.
Snoopy1967: Buying many multiples of the Stock Exchange is exactly what other players have done to generate lots of coins.
Have you seen the towns with huge numbers of the Subway Station to boost population?
There are many ways to play MT2.
Even so, you have managed to accumulate 450 million coins and it looks like without using a jailbroken iphone. My little town is slow compared to you, you Business Mogul!
I've leaned towards restaurants, cafes, and clothing so I bought 2 Eiffel Towers and as a result, my town progresses at a slower pace, but over time it still has progressed.
Personally, it really "hurts" me to sell off anything at a fraction of their original cost. I hate wasting money--even virtual money.
Kevinator: I think that happened to me, they were the koi pond and the ice cream truck. Were these what you received? If not, what were yours?
Ashley2021: I agree, the first 2 months were a grind. The game is faster now for me too.
Way back in November, I wanted to test out the game's search function on international locations. My secondary location was set purely by accident and I've never changed it. If I had known what I know now, I would have chosen New York City. oh well.
Many thanks for the gifts received from so many folks. I wish I could return gifts to everyone that gifted me.
Booyah: 10 gifts each day to give away would be better!
