Something big is going down. Booyah is drastically reducing the popularity gain from franchising. Disneyland just dropped from over 100k popularity to just about 64k. The current owners all keep the old popularity, but new franchisees are gonna get screwed royally. I have been gradually noticing the downturn, but after the last few hours, it is obvious that Booyah is again sticking its nose in.
 
I had been reading and notice you help out alot of people I really appreciate how fast you helped me out I will add you as a friend and send u stuff all day! THanks again!

I get it guys...Booyah is punishing people for refranchising. Now the refranchiser will lose popularity by doing it. Yet another way to stifle people from sharing bucks. Oh God...
 
Yes you can, I'm using an iPhone 4s.

I change mine at least once a week, and have never deleted my app.

Speculating on Possible Game Changes

#1208, #1210

In addition to lowering the popularity counts, another potential change could be limiting the maximum number of multiple items, most notably, the Stock Exchanges, or perhaps for things like the subway which gives good population for a small footprint.

Booyah's efforts might be focusing on making it easier for newer players and/or for those who just play on their own.
How big of an impact on players who have already accumulated big hoards of coins and bucks will be interesting to see.
 
nyteowl - California Locations

nyteowl: I am so envious of you and how you were able to get all kinds of California businesses.
Way back Thanksgiving, when I was just learning to play MT2, I was curious about the search function and not knowing what I was doing, I turned off my location and inadvertently set my "secondary" location to Paris France. That's why so many of my businesses are French ones that I purchased myself. I've tried to re-set to New York City, but it never worked. So I'm stuck with San Francisco and Paris. SF has almost nothing worthwhile. Whenever I look to franchise anything attractive even in the Bay Area around SF, it's always in Bucks and I don't know why. :( San Jose might even have been better than SF.
But I think I'm almost ready to go back to the original way of playing--creating a town filled with good eateries and pretty to live in. Right now, with only offices and Stock Exchanges, it's boring. ;)

Good afternoon Licat & GraceGirl & Cankiss! [I feel like I'm addressing my "angels" :D]
I've been lucky enough to have purchased almost all of my businesses via coins. I traveled down the California coast during the winter holidays, which gave me access to Los Angeles, Orange County (Disneyland), and San Diego. All the San Francisco area businesses are purchasable via coins right from my house. Then, I discovered that turning off the location services on my phone put me in New York, so those businesses were easily accessed.

Right now, I'm not so interested in getting businesses for popularity only. I'm thinking of places like the Australian Opera House or even the Tuschinski Theater in Amsterdam, where I saw "The Rock" (subtitled in Dutch). Hmm, I'll have to take a look later...

If you love Starbucks you should visit my town. It’s called FedWay and it’s my version of downtown and south Seattle. It’s made up of exclusively Seattle businesses and includes the Pike Place Market and the first Starbucks located at 1912 Pike Place.

Not only is the Starbucks cool, it has 41K popularity (and I think the popularity will continue to go up as people refine their towns.) :)

Check it out! Booyah id 33397986
 
Thanks all

I've been on here for a couple of weeks learning the nuances of this addictive game. Thanks to TheTallet for answering some questions a while back. And a special thanks to MyCamp, Sventown and Candyland for franchising me and sending me bucks. I send you gifts of population daily to show my gratitude. GraceGirl, I franchised Radio City Music Hall from you. Please franchise from me when you get a chance. I am trying to buy all the land so I can then concentrate on fixing up the town and making it look pretty.
I appreciate anyone that wants to come and visit and maybe franchise from me if you'd like.
Thanks for making this game lots of fun.

Question: why it it charging me to build another business the green bucks only, ;)I'm on level 6 with only one business my population is currently at 1400.
 
Argh! Can't get the Angry Birds Rap out of my head... My 7-yr-old son and his YouTube addiction! He memorized the entire chorus.... "Hey dad, just search on YouTube and it'll come right up." Yeah, thanks a lot buddy...

Ok, back on topic....

Oh, that's how you got the French businesses. Nice! You could have done far worse with your location selection. :)

The SF bay area has the tech companies... Google, Apple, Facebook, Yahoo, etc. Haven't tried looking for Netflix, yet. I'll probably head down to L.A. and Orange County in a couple of weeks. See what I can find. When I first started playing MT2, I thought I scored big when I found a 700 popularity business. :)

If you're in SF and turn your location services on, the business around here should be available in coins... hmm. don't know what's going on.

You can check out my town and see if my bay area businesses are available via coins...

I'm also playing on my iPhone 4s (verizon). It's asked me for my location before, but I really didn't take advantage of it. Now, it's stuck at New York when I turn location services off. Completely closing and opening the app doesn't change the behavior. Oh well....

I also find it interesting that two people in the same location and both using iPhone 4S to play, get different timing schedules for jobs.

What times do you get? I get the usual, 3 mins 39 mins 2 hours 10 hours.

Also, I bought google for 200 green cash :D. Not the greatest pop, but hey at least I can say I have google. Now just need to find a cheap Disneyland.

Yup. Same time schedule. If you look a few pages back, you'll see that some people don't get the 10 hrs. Instead, their max is 4hrs.

My Disneyland should be relatively cheap. Only 2293 popularity, though. I picked it up a couple months ago. Would cost in the neighborhood of about 400 bucks.

Oh yeah, yet another gripe about Booyah. Their constant changing of the game rules whenever they feel like it.
[I had some scenarios, market references, and data points here, but I removed it all to spare all of you from my long-winded rant. :)]

Ok, so the gist of this seems to be that businesses are going to cost the same no matter where you franchise it from. This also means that the respective popularity of the business most likely will not reflect the popularity that the business owner sees (unless the owner had just franchised it him/herself).

Barracuda Bay made some observations in Post 1210 about the popularity problem.

Way to go, Booyah....

Looking for.....

I finally got enough population for my 36th business. I want to make it a good one. I will try to get out to California today. I did some searching in my location and found some business in NYC that looked good. Wondering if anybody has KFC with around 40383 pop.,Celeste diner 26000 or plane image 25232.

Cant believe 5,000,000 anything they do they better give us more land.

Thanks to all for Franshises and gifts.

Update :)

Hey everyone,

So I've managed to get rid of some of my old businesses, and change them into some mega franchises, with a little help from my friends!!!! :D

Thanks to all.

I'm going to get carpel tunnel syndrome from tapping so much.;) But now I can relax a little, and just enjoy life in my mansion. Hahaha.

GraceGirl, I franchised the NYT from you. Chose Begins Cafe instead of Dominos. I notice that the popularity differs on each specific town, and on Booyahtown (or whatever), for most businesses....

I cleaned out a lot of population builders, and rearranged my town a little. My population dropped from like a level 25, to an 18. I notice that only 18 of my 21 remaining businesses are in my Stats menu. And the game did not hold vacancy slots for me, as I lowered the population so many levels....

Does anyone know a mega travel agency (with 6 figure popularity??)?? Would like to swap it.

I really wish that girl who is late for school, 1000 times a day, would throw me a green buck, every once in a while! lol. Also, there is no chance that I'm putting a skate park in my town, so get over it. haha.

Have a great one. Let's hope for a MyTown upgrade soon.

oh, and I put MyTown on my iPod as well, and even though it's under the same ID in game center, it's asking me to build a whole new town from scatch? Anyone know if there's a fix for that? BTW, I'm playing on a iPhone 4S, and the highest time level I have is 4 hrs. I would love a 10 hr. option!!

anyone worried who is doing this, when booyah upgrades the game, that they suddenly will not having enough population to get more businesses greater than their 36?

I'd love to take out pop. fillers, but am worried I'll have to get "tons" more population to get my 37th business (& up)--

hope this makes sense?

also a HUGE thank u for those spreading around their buck wealth. u people r definitely paying it forward!!:D

I'd like to see paint color options for all housing. Blocks of housing start to look ugly since they are all the same (except the Victorians).

I like and agree with all the other items on the master list.

Thanks JenniOR! Feel free to add to that Forum:
http://mytown2.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=wish&action=display&thread=4

I started it, so we can have a forum just for MyTown2. With multiple threads for different purposes. It makes it a LOT easier for people to find answers to their questions.

When I first came to this thread, I had to sift through 30+ pages to find a few tidbits of info. Now we're at 50 pages!

I encourage everyone to start a profile and add content. It's very simple and free.

Let me know if there is a reason anyone does not want to make the switch and I will try to handle it.

Thanks all.
