Well, unfortunately, forumco destroyed html capabilities and I couldn't even get BBC code to work so I'll probably move diaries and stuff here...sigh. BUT this really will have nothing to do with it! I was just reading someone's sim's log of this challenge. At first I thought that sounds like no fun at all however, seeing her Sims (she used self-sims of people she knew from the site), I knew, 'My God, this is perfect for our sims O_O' So with this, I plan to start this challenge!

Basically what it is is you take 8 sims. You can only control ONE while the other seven are completely out of your control. That one sim you control, you have to fulfill their want. Easy enough? Well, you're stuck in this house where you can only have on tub, one bathroom, four beds, one 2-seater couch, and like...a chess table. You have a very basic kitchen...but no fire alarm. O_O Oh God.

You can only INFLUENCE sims meaning at no point can you take them over and make them do stuff...this'll be tough since my game is also loaded with cheats but it should be interesting.

As I don't have my Sims comp over here yet, I'll just establish the personalities. You roll a die for these:

For the first sim (the only sim you will be allowed to control) assign them an aspiration using this chart and a die:

1 – Knowledge
2 – Fortune
3 – Romance
4 – Popularity
5 – Pleasure
6 – Roll Again

For the 7 sims you won't control use this chart and a die:

1 – Knowledge
2 – Fortune
3 – Romance
4 – Popularity
5 – Pleasure
6 – Family

Then for the signs...
Roll the die once to choose the set of astrological signs and a second time to choose the sign from that set. Keep the personality traits as they default for the sign.

Set Choice:
Odd (1,3,5) = Set 1
Even (2,4,6) = Set 2

Set 1:
1 = Aries
2 = Taurus
3 = Gemini
4 = Cancer
5 = Leo
6 = Virgo

Set 2:
1 = Libra
2 = Scorpio
3 = Sagittarius
4 = Capricorn
5 = Aquarius
6 = Pisces

So....

Oi. I didn't realize we didn't have good dice. I'm using a metal one my dad confiscated from our class of 2007 in 8th grade...they were gambling in his lab ^_^; I think SPMS would have been more interesting if we weren't...not cool.

But I haven't 'rolled dem bones' in a while so it didn't really go so well...this should be a hella interesting experiment.

Me: Romance Sim (Oh God, we're gonna die. I'll prolly want to sleep with 20 sims or something and you can't leave the house x.x Hopefully 20 male sims will wander by); Sign- Leo

Jynx: Popularity Sim (At first you were pleasure but you're always pleasure so I rolled again...not that this is any better); Sign- Sagittarius (Uh oh XP)

MB: Fortune Sim; Sign- Aquarius

Camo: Pleasure Sim (o.O This is a new one); Sign- Taurus (Only one with a unique sign)

Chocolate Brain: Knowledge Sim (Lol, definitely new one XP); Sign- Libra (Pooh, I wanna be a Libra)

Crazy Ho: Popularity Sim; Sign: Aquarius

Van: Pleasure Sim; Sign: Leo

Lysa: Popularity Sim; Sign- Libra

Okay, that's set up and I'll do it on our 2 days off next week!! Yeah, reading day!! *cough* Now...to go study for my art exam.

Yea, well, I stayed up until about one last night (because I couldn't sleep. ^^; I was having a bad day) creating us...don't be offended if no one looks right, its been a while x.x Well, building the house was a little difficult because you can only have 100 simoleons let and yet you can't have much stuff...but I managed it by buying trees. So...we started and guess what my lifetime goal is?

Woohoo with 20 different Sims Rolling Eyes

Uh...I don't think 20 sims even exist in this neighborhood. I made my new fantasy guy (I have others besides Adri, naturally) but he doesn't look right at all ^^; But because I want us to get out of there remotely alive, I got it out of my system and used a cheat. Okay, become a Celebrity Chef...no big.

When I turned it on, everyone immediately went to see a painting then trees... o.O Caitlin and Laura immediately had a pillow fight. Donna and I had a brief one she started but I had to work on learning to cook so her and Sree then played with water balloons x.x And Jon, Van, and Lysa...they just stood around the tree for about 2 sim hours ^^; I was like, God, make yourselves do something productive! (Remember, I can only control my sim) So I watched the cooking channel and invited them to come and join me (Jon didn't seem to like this idea ^^; ) and we all sat around, watching the cooking network. Lysa stood right in front of the tv ^^;

And...yea, then my new fantasy guy and some of his roommates came over and I told him a couple jokes...one of his roommates looks like Vinny. I didn't notice until he sat next to Jon x.x I have a pic of this sorta...it was a funny pic because it looks like Lysa is glaring back at Jon over her shoulder.

Well, I got sleepy finally so that's it for now. I'm sure something will happen once I start going to work.

This seems hilarious! (^_^) Kinda makes me want to play sims again--but I can't stomach the waiting times during loading!

Lol, come now, imagine it on MY piece of crap Mr. Green

I read during loading or wander off to get myself a drink. Really, I think if I got rid some of my over one thousand downloads, it might be peachy but then i'd be sad ^^; Ah, the sacrifices Rolling Eyes

It would be fun tho, you should try it. I havent really been playing this house much yet because of that download mentioned in the other link...I think you'd like it. Rolling Eyes

I finally uninstalled a lot of the crap that I never used when I first got this computer, stuff like "HP Games" and crap. When I was done doing a lot of deleting, my computer ran a LOT faster. So if you have anything you don't use on your computer, delete it. I've got a lot of downloads and expansions for TS2, too, so I don't know if it'll help there, but I hope so!
