Conform o meter

I had to buy 5-6 Kwik E Marts and a couple Krusty Burgers to get to 5 stars. Didn't want to but it was the only way.

100th post!!!

So I really do need to buy more of the regular restaurants?
:? :?:

I have two each of Krusty Burger, Kwik-e-Mart, and Gulp and Blow. I also have all premium buildings. My gluttony and consumerism are each 4.5 stars. I still have an overall 4.5 on my conform-o-meter. I refuse to buy more restaurants for aesthetic reasons until I buy more land.

Seems to me if you buy so many restaurants just to get that extra one percent, it's still hard to maintain 5 star because how much righteousness fluctuates. Very few of us have 5 stars, so I'd recommend you do what's best for your Springfield and not worry about the extra one percent :)

That's exactly right. The only reason I stay mostly at 5 is that I have a second account that my wife mostly manages and can spray paint my town if stars drop and vice versa. Doesn't really bring in too muchextra money though.

Sending Snake to prison also gives an immediate boost to righteousness.

I grew up in a crappy small town near Philly so I feel quite comfortable with multiple fast food joints and kwik-e-marts... Helps to have plenty of land though so it doesn't feel too cramped.

Ha! No wawas out here in Chicago. Grew up in Pottstown. Plenty of wawas and turkey hills:) and four fast food joints essentially across the street from each other.
