I was doing chores near Mark's place today, so after I was done, I went over there and played some Zoo Tycoon while he played more Borderlands 2. Who knew keeping a zoo would involve picking up so much poo. That should be a poem. 

Yes there's an achievement for picking up 1000 poos. In each biome, there inevitably accumulates poo and sometimes visitors complain about it. So it's become my routine to just pick up the poo every time I enter a biome to check on the animals. You'd think the janitors I hired would do this stuff, but apparently they just pick up the human waste. 

I'm nearly done with campaign mode. There might be three more missions to do. Each one now is taking a considerable amount of time. The time limits on most of them are an hour. The objectives are fun, though. In one, I had to clear an entire zoo of its animals by releasing them into the wild and then replacing them with different ones. I had to wait for these animals to level up to 15 to release them, and I'm not sure what exactly levels them up. I just kept them as happy as possible and tried to level my whole zoo, figuring it might also level the animals. I don't think they're directly tied to each other, though. I ended up bringing in all the new animals before I'd finished releasing the old ones. The last thing I did was release a rhino to win the scenario. 

This game's a blast. I tried to pull myself away several times to go play Borderlands 2, but I had to do just one more mission. I can't wait to finish this campaign so I can enter the Freeform mode and make a zoo of my own design. That is going to be fun. 

Last BaD. May the BaD be with you, always.
