Another hour, another chapter in SimCity's troubled saga. This time around, Polygon received a message sent by EA to its marketing affiliates requesting that they "please stop actively promoting the game" until the ongoing server issues clear up.

Sometimes, I wish life's problems could be solved just by plopping down a few more parks.
