Media Mogul Play-Thru Part 1

1. Start with 1000 Ratings Credits instead of 500 Ratings Points.
2. Citizens stop in a matching Television Viewing Area at any point in that turn's move.
3. Citizens stop in a non-matching Television Viewing Area only if it is the last point on that turn's move.
4. Citizens move around obstacles in the directions of the next Middle or End Point.
5. Citizens have no specific End or Middle Point, they all seek the closest and unoccupied.
6. When Citizens reach a Middle Point, they don't move for one turn.
