oh, and ella: you can name kids in the detail screen. click on the name and then type when the cursor blinks. and if you've opened the school, you can get a clue to whose kid is whose by comparing the skills level of each kid to the skills level of each mom.



THANKS! I just opened a third village b/c my second is SO stupid. (It took them over two days with four researchers to come up with 3000 points -- they'll be dead soon enough I figure...) Anyway, so this one came with three men and three women and one girl, and I'm using this sceme.

I paired them off in tasks: one man and one woman to each.

Researchers: Oxygen and Hydrogen
(The kid was one of those "problem kids" so she is now called Nucleus)
Farmers: Corn and Wheat
Builders happened to come with a female pre-named "Soda" so her coworker is "Pop."

Then I'll figure out how to combine if I'm there to see the breeding, which I sometimes miss completely. My first village, with only level one of breeding, made 5 babies while I was out for an afternoon!!!! I was afraid to buy level two.

I can't wait to get the school opened. I trashed my first game, which was doing so well, just because I'm stupid and didn't realize I could have more than one at a time...duh!!!!!

Thanks again -- Ella
