Dear Settlers,

2015 starts with another nice love story from the heart of the Community: 
loulou200 and padawan7060 have been settling in the French version since the beginning of 2012. They met each other in the game which nullified the distance of 800 km. They fell in love and recently exchanged vows.

"Thanks to TSO, our love was born on screen before it crossed borders."

Dear Settlers,

Recent archaeological excavations uncovered a construction plan for a so far unknown building. Your architects drew an egg-tastic sketch.
What in the name of the Easter Bunny could that be?!

Guess & discuss in the > feedback thread <.

Happy settling!
