I know these are really-really stupid questions, especially because I've been playing CIV2 for years, but, here they're:
1. What benefits do you have if people celebrate a "We love ..." day ?
2. The fact that you have a city in the "Top 5 cities" does help in any way?Thanks! |

WL*D - gives Republic trade in Monarchy, Fundy & ?Communism? - gives an extra citizen/turn (subject to there being a food surplus) in Rep & Dem - and I think it gives Monarchy food in Despotism
top 5 cities - no benefit that I know of...

Thanks  By one extra citizen per turn, you mean the city is growing by one, or has one extra citizen only for that turn? |

The city actually grows one size - look at the OCC threads and you will see from our logs that virtually all the city growth is achieved by using WL*D - normally in two bursts one in early Rep upto size 12 and another after building Shakes upto size 21+.You should be warned that it is much harder to handle once you have multiple cities...

So, if I play democracy with a luxury rate of, let's say, 40%, and I have also some happiness wonders, my cities will just grow and grow and grow ...?

Depends on the happiness factors - Happy Wonders, temples, market places, etc. You need more happy citizens than content citizens in a city for it to celebrate WLT*D, and the celebration ceases either when a city's first unhappy citizen appears or the content citizens outnumber the happy citizens. And, of course, there needs to be a food surplus in the city. So if you're aiming to exploit the concept, irrigate! ------------------

When I have happy wonders and 40% luxuries most of my cities or celebrating. As finbar said, irrigate around your city to have enough food. If it's a coastal city you should also build a harbor. And don't forget aqueducts and sewer systems. |

OK, OK, I know I must irrigate, build harbors, aqueducts and the other stuff. My question pointed elsewhere: if you have enough happiness and your people are celebrating "We love ...", is this enough for your city to grow, or there must be also a food surplus also?
I guess I got the answer. Food also. |

Starving citizens aren't happy. No, but the increased growth rate is only effective as long as you have the food supplies to sustain it. |
