2016 Summer Screenshot Event - Olympics!

Post by Abby »

SUMMER SCREENSHOT EVENT 2016
OLYMPICS

Image

Welcome to the summer screenshot event of this year. This is an event where you post a picture of your sims enjoying the summer in their game, in exchange for a cool olympic medal Image ;) Sounds like fun huh?

But this year, we have a little... twist. We have a theme! And you've probably guessed it... OLYMPICS!

In order to get your medal, and +30 for your house, post a picture of your sim enjoying their summer with the olympics. Whether they are competing themselves, supporting a family member, watching at home, throwing parties, or working on their own athletics - share it with us!


This event will run untill August 31st! I look forward to seeing all your entries. :)

Note: Only 30 points for your houses in this event, not the usual 60 that partaking and earning a medal would involve! Please remember to post that you participated in your house scoreboard thread!

Kate is an Olympic hopeful, training to compete in the triathlon while living in Sunset Valley.

Image
She begins each day with a swim at the beach.

Image
She follows that up with a long bike ride...

Image

...or a run, depending on her mood and training schedule!

In honour of my legacy blog's 4th anniversary - and in anticipation of Rio, of course - all my past and present heirs came together last month to compete in their very own Langurd Olympics!
Spoiler:
There were fourteen diverse events, the more, uh, athletic of which included...

Aquatics!
Image
Winner: Tewl (Founder) - hard to tell from the picture, I know, but the other two route-failed at the last second ;)

Martial Arts!
Image
Winner: Razor (Gen 2 Heir)

Equestrian!
Image
Winner: Gumby (Gen 5 Heir)

And of course, a formal medal ceremony sans medals because Langurds can't have nice things.
Image
The ultimate winner was Calamity, my current ghostly heiress, which I'm taking as a sign of progress. (The loser was Tewl, my loser founder. :tongue: )

Bronwyn has always enjoyed watching the Olympics. Since childhood she has marveld at the athletes and wished she could be that talented. This year she decided to try her hand at some of her favorite sports. ( Goodness, that is awful image editing. Sorry about that)
ImageImage
Archery...
ImageImageImage
Basketball...
ImageImage
Soccer...
Image
Bull-riding outside in your PJs...
Image
Wait. That isn't an Olympic sport.
Image
It is also a horrible idea.
ImageImage
Maybe Bronwyn should just stick to watching the games and save a few dollars on Band-aids.

There was no way I could pass up an opportunity to use my Sports Goddess Lyra for some pictures!!
Spoiler:
Image
Lyra Gordon maxed the Athletic skill when she was just a teen, and to date remains one of my favourite sims... I think it's just something about Generation Three.

Image
Lyra: There's no better way to spend a hot summer than cruising around on the open ocean. You might even get to mow down some swimmers!

Image
I'm not sure why anybody thought giving Lyra a Jet-Ski was a good idea...

Image
Anyway, the Windsurfing is by far Lyra's favourite event.

Image
But she's more into the tricks than the racing; she already knows she's the best, she doesn't need to enter a race to prove that.

Image
Besides, showing off in front of the neighbours is practically a sport of it's own!

With all the stress that comes from worrying about your father's criminal affairs and your mother's romantical one, not to mention struggling with grades and baby brother Tim, you need an escape from reality. For Tina Traveller, that escape is shooting basketball in her backyard, practicing for her future job as a player for the Bouncing Gerbits.

Image
While some enjoy sports in solitude, the Sylum family partake in the Olympics together. Or at least enjoy being gathered in the same room.
Russell: Dear Plumbbob let them get that penalty...
Dezik: *snuggles*
Tsygan: This bug book is FASCINATING.

Here is my entry for the Sim Olympics. I play TS4, without CC, so my choices are limited. Here is my legacy founder. The pool is the first place she went...she's supposed to be earning money for the damn knight, but she is all about the summer olympics instead.

It took some searching through my old folders for my Quest for Peace legacy but I found some nostalgic pics of one of my favourite moments in generation six:
Spoiler:

Dade: How long have we been hidden away?

Image

Reias: She's probably been busy, Dade. She'd never forget about us.

Image

Dade: I wonder...

Reias: Trust me, she would never forget about her favourite legacy child. Even for a colourful Sims 3 legacy.

Dade: Perhaps, I trust you to know.

Beth, my current legacy heir has her go at diving...
But her diving is not so good, and turns into a belly flop. :p

My sims are very lazy, they only watch the games on tv.
(I would have liked them to be able to do some archery because that's my favourite sport)
