Today I want to tell you how to attract visitors to your city.
At first you will need to gather a list of city's names. To collect the names of cities, you can visit popular cities and find names of there active visitors using msg/refresh.
In order to collect lists of cities personally I use my special tool. It allows to collect so much cities as I need.
When you collect your own list, you can visit all cities using free version of my program MMCVisitor 0.0.0.2. At the next day you can delite from you list all cities that don't visit your city after your visit. So in your list will stay only cities which visit you. Now you can add new cities for test them.
Every day I visit 30-40 cities with my program. It takes less that an hour. At that time I have a dinner. :)

MMCVisitor 0.0.0.2.
The first version of my program will be without visiting my city. I want you to test it and write, how it works.
Maybe it will be difficulties. For example, yesterday I found that when work through a proxy program not saves messages in the cities, although homes, with direct connections to the Internet everything works fine. I think, it's fault of Myminicity.com...
You can download MMCVisitor v.0.0.0.2.
P.S. It will be cool, if you correct my translation of instruction :) Thanks a lot!

Instructions for the use of the MMCVisitor (draft)
It's a program to automate your daily actions and speed up the process of visiting friendly cities. It's a pity only that if a long list of cities, the message in the end of list can not save. It doesn't use a proxy, visits are on your behalf.
0. A brief description.
The program visits the list of friend cities on-site MyMiniCity.com. It's a program for free access. Asking yourself where's the trick?.. Well, that's not a secret. Program visits my city Newyorg.myminicity.com always first of all in any launch.
The program has flexible settings. MMCVisitor visits cities from the list one by one. It checks XML, forms the right message, posts it on a News Bulletin. Then it checks
whether the message survived. If it didn't survive program try to save again (the
number of repeated attempts preserves in the preferences).
Attention! PROGRAM WINDOW SHOULD ALWAYS BE ON TOP to decrypt the kaptcha for reporting on a News Bulletin! Otherwise the prodgam will generate the exception. I use the program when I'm not behind a computer. If you are going to do the same, you should still turn off the screensaver of your PC. After turning off the screensaver and runing the program you can turn off the monitor and borrow useful affairs.:) If there are any questions or suggestions - mail to mmcvisitor@yandex.ru. On my blog http://mmc-blog.blogspot.com/ I will spread the new version.
And one more screen:
Setting up and using the program.
1. The program don't require installation. Just unpack zip and begin to set.
2. The structure of folders:
1) First of all you need to configure options.ini
CitiName - the name, which you will sign on boards.
TimeOfDelay (in seconds) - the time between visits cities. I don't advise set it too small.
CntTryOneCity - the number of attempts to save the message in city, if the message has not saved at first time.
CntCitiesNotSaved - determines after what number of cities in which the message is not survived the program will be stopped. Typically, when communications ceased to persist a row of five-reaching cities - a message will be not saved. If you want to visit all the cities from the list, even if the messages stop persist - put a great importance.
TimeZone - indicates a time zone (imperative that visited the city no more once a day. This option will help to track visits by time). For example, users from Moscow must set 3.
CityNameList - file name, which will used for import your list of cities. The file must be in the same directory as the file MMCVisitor.exe.
2) The next file for configuration - the list of cities (file with the name specified in the parameter CityNameList in the file options.ini). In the next version I plan to embed in the program convenient editor cities, in this version it does not exist yet, so the list would have to edited manually.
The structure of records in the file (for example, the file already enrolled in 3 cities):
String format:
When you add the city - put yesterday's date in the field "Time of last visit" to when the program start the same day new cities was not ignored. After visiting all the cities file will be saved with new dates of recent visits.
3) Files reports.
In the folder "messages" are 5 files.
pop.txt - messages to increase population
ind.txt - to increase the communications industry
tra.txt - messages to improve transport
sec.txt - messages to improve security
env.txt - messages for a better environment
This is the most creative part of settings. You must fill the list with messages for posting on news bulletin.
The messages can indicate the name of your city.
For example:
In a basic kit consists of primitive communication. Be sure to add your own messages in the list.
Message Format
The message, which will remain on the board, will be established at the following format:
In the "quantity" will indicate what value was equivalent figure (set by program). In the "message" - a random message from the appropriate file. The following versions of the program will be able to customize template.
