I really expect someone here to do this.
Thank god I have no job or girlfriend! Level 5 im on top of you like Kyle on Cake!
i have DOZENS of intact, but useless (until now) doors sitting around because of work.
who wants to collaborate? i dont have enough points yet though....
Yay, the number of players has been raised!!
Getting retired soon… Any last throws at this one?!?
Yeah? What is the City of Clovis?
Once upon a time, when the first rays of Glasnost days broke over the horizon....
through SF0 came thundering a player named Kyle Hamilton.
Rumor had it that he and other senior players had together attended some sort of formal creative ("art") education in the southern, sunny lands (currently domain of the Inter-rex). No-one really knows what happened to Kyle for some time after that seminal experience... various histories argue his brief appearances in Germany, his conversion to obscure sects of Christianity, and his stint living monastically on a chicken farm.
A sudden, mad burst of creativity, most likely originating in his "women's studies" classes, brought a level of fervor to the game not seen all winter ('06-'07) long. Mind you, now, this was before the days of Ms. Mink and Sr. SPAR's infamous "225:30" challenges, but precisely during the time when Kyle was really making his name. His character was firmly established during that month of April with landmark completions such as boycotting the clouds, rural photo shoots, love letters to high fructose corn syrup, and, not least of all, an H. S. Thompson-esque voyage into the realms of the unconscious.
With all of this in mind, it was ostensibly Sean Mahan (see above) who wrote the description for this task. Luckily, the link to Craigslist is still readable, though long-expired. It points to a 'med' (media/art/design) job posting in Fresno. The ad essentially read "we would like to pay someone to install some art here in this barren, wasted City of Clovis." If you refer again to Mr. Hamilton's player page, you will see that this is where he resides. So, everyone hoped for Kyle to get paid doing a serious task. And to answer your question, Ms. Tanaka, the city does still exist. It maintains a unique identity in the face of Fresno's greedy expansion.
For better or worse, Lowteck and some of the rest of us got moving on this task (creating Doorhenge, which you well know, JBryce). Kyle did not take the job, rather leaving it to his sister to provide 'welth' for their large family, but instead busied himself with intellectual pursuits.
You players who have taken the reins of Insatiability would do well to ingest the wide-ranging creative career of one Mr. Kyle Hamilton. Fresno's favorite son truly played a key role in so much of the inexplicable energy of Glasnost.

I think it would be against the spirit of SFZero to include things that I have already done.
