I didn't find a game like this- I was surprised it hadn't been done before. Let me know if the time is alright.

You need to make the mine space fill in along the way to getting 25/25.

I'd love a metro population companion to this, since city lines are so arbitrary.

@pita: I think what Dralcoffin means is that some cities, such as Hartford and Atlanta, have small city populations but many people living around them. Metro populations vary a lot, but I'll release that next weekend.

@pita: Metro populations are a lot less arbitrary than "Oh, that block's identical, but it's in West Suburbville instead of the city proper which is across the street."
