Yay you, indeed :drinks: Another tour de force in Sims gameplay! I just shake my head in wonder and grin all the way through.

Re: A Sweatmeats Legacy: Update 12/11

Fun update! I'm glad Rocky seems to have inherited his mother's nose. He's a tough little guy, that Middle of Nowhere handicap really extends the lawn-living stage! Burglaries and fires - potentially devastating for a Legacy family starting out under those conditions, but great for the BaCC! :highfi...

Re: Let's Build It! Round 6

I actually did this tribute for Little Nemo/TwilightOutside three years ago as a thank you for introducing me to the adorable comic strip Little Nemo in Slumberland by Winsor McCay, and thought it would be perfect for this theme. I built the Simberland lot and it centers around two Sims, so I hope i...

Re: Blueberry Island - A BaCC - updated December 7, 2014

I'm happy for Adam, Gretchen is a great Sim! And more ginger kids for the hood is a good thing. Those windows do look nice, I'll have to remember them. I love having Business as an alternate desirable career when they can't find the one they want right off. I married Ben Long into a family ages ago...

Such a nice family! I love how Zoe and Thalia are turning out - both unique and pretty! It doesn't take long for the finances to improve once you get on the promotion track. I do like how taxes can keep that in check when you don't want all your households rolling in dough, and then there's always u...

Congrats on Blueberry Island's first set of twins - I love the little boost they give the population! Do you ever use cheesecake or just let them come naturally? (So far I just do natural, but I'm not opposed to cheesecake either.) It also looks like girls are starting to outnumber the boys :neener...

Yes, I would say you don't have to follow the Middle of Nowhere limits the first day on the Uni lot. (Man, something else the Borg apparently missed!)

Re: OFB: Salons for Dummies aka Getting Paid for Makeovers

Thanks for clearing that up, I had a similar problem in a neighborhood i was doing. But did I understand it right? When a customer considers getting a make over (filling up the green bar) you should not try to sell it to him, no matter if selling sim is the stylist or not? This is what Twilightouts...

OFB: Salons for Dummies aka Getting Paid for Makeovers

So, for those who follow my BaCC, you know I was getting increasingly frustrated when customers weren't paying for makeovers at Yvette Tan's Re-Nu-Yu Salon. Well, a few days ago I sent a copy of my salon to Twilightoutside/Little Nemo so he could do some testing, and after a couple of days of trial ...

Well done! Wow, two networking promotions. Maybe that's what I've been missing, because I've never gotten one in my Adult Start attempts.

Super funny update! I died laughing at your Bryan transition tribute, and totally deserved! :rofl: It's a cool idea to make the grown kids townies, since there's no real point in continuing to play them, but they can still make little cameo apprearances. I also like seeing a house with kids allowed ...

Re: OWBC Question

I say go for it with good old Herbert. The end goal of the BaCC is so far out there, I think most of us are pretty lax with how players choose to get there. It isn't like starting with Herbert is going to make reaching a population of 50,000 any easier. Besides, I like him too.
