Pleasantview Kingdom - A BACC =]

Hi :spin:

I've been playing a BACC and it was going so well. I guess that's why I had to clean up my laptop files... when things are going well I have to mess them up. So, it's gone.
I missed it because I was having such fun with the families... After I got over it and stopped checking all my files and back up files and stored thumb drives, I decided to start another.

Now I'm using Pleasantview as my BACC. I've always wanted to play Pleasantview through a few generations... and now I hope I do (I have the latest save uploaded to protect it!) :goodvibes:

Anyway, I'm playing lots of Legacies in this neighborhood and few other challenges- so I'm going to play a week at a time for a rotation instead of one season.
There are so many interesting ideas, like adding challenges per family, that I just had to do it... but now I have WAY too many families for my liking. It'll be slow playing between rotations. It's not the end that matters but the journey, I hope. :D

Anyway, It Starts here...

Ooh! Ooh, I know, I know!
Spoiler:
Level 7 Business is Sandy Fairchild :mrgreen:

This was a fun read, I loves me a good strategy, like checking out jobs and badges. Congrats on all of Morti's achievements! You have mad buildings skilz too, your lots and hoods look great!

Love Servo 01's Knight-In-Shining-Armor look.
I recognize a few of the simselves, I'm looking forward to seeing what they get up to :celebration:

Spoiler:
I see Lorin's already told you, so I'll refrain from informing you that that sim who's Everywhere is Sandy Fairchild. I'm just a nice person like that. ;)

Anyway, HOLY cow, but did Mortimer have an impressive first week! Seven universities, a business district, a bunch of households going in, and a bajillion community lots! But then, I should've expected you to be good at planning out the early stages of a BaCC--you're the Apocalypse Queen, after all! :)

Looks like Bella might end up being trouble a little along the line, especially if/when Mortimer's life bar fills up soon. She might have a really "fun" effect on the kingdom if she ends up taking over as queen regnant. But then, I don't know what your inheritance rules are, so I dunno. ^^ Pleasantview Kingdom looks awesome, too! I love the more strictly medieval theme you're building up for it! I love the layout of the castle too, with the kind of diagonal star-shape thing going on. It's awesome. ^^

Finally, I have to say, "King Goth" has a nice ring to it. :D

I love my dress, by the way. :) Awesome first few updates, and I'm looking forward to seeing how this runs!

Hi :mrgreen:

Yes! That's her name. I know most of the townies/NPCs while playing but make me think of them when the game isn't on and - Blank. :spin:

Thanks so much for the comments, Lorinvs and Keika. :hugs:

It think it's so much fun seeing a Simself visit a lot.
It's only because of all the other wonderful BACC stories I read and forget to comment (writes much comment more) that I have ideas how to play businesses. :pan:

Impressive...
Spoiler:
I would say you'd be in second place for fastest pop jump in one rotation. Still, first place belongs to Nemo because that was an epic win he had. So will we ever see what happened to Cassandra? She sounds like the type who'd come back if her daddy had such a success in running a kingdom. I didn't see my simself in that line up, was she hiding? Anyway, nice chappies.

For sure it goes to Nemo! I only worked it hard to get enough for the families I wanted to add... No one else will be able to earn as much as fast. :)

You mean I messed up?! ... the hair is wrong and she's in a long white dress but I sure hope I didn't mix up the Simselves. . . she's in the front, in white and if it's not her... I'll fix it! O.O

HI, Mysterymusic :D

Thank! I hope they mix it up. :#1:
It's a plain, ole BACC. I've been trying to get one going for awhile now. :)


I thought about adding some more Simselves but then remembered Pony's Simself BACC and changed my mind. The ten for my ISBI will be enough. :D

This is crazy impressive, Becca. :lol:
Spoiler:
You have such an impressive strategy, omg. This is such a watch-and-learn experience.
In other news, Mordecai is super cute and it's kind of nice to see all our old favourites thrown into a brand new situation of the BaCC and King Mortimer's shiny new world :) . Your rotations are going to be so big! But I imagine you won't need that many of them to achieve your population total :lol:
I love your names. Servo 01 and Baby Boy XD

This was a super fun read~

Wow you're off to a running start! Don't let me having a simself BACC stop you from adding more simselves if you want. It's cool seeing everyone in Pleasantview in a new situation. It'll be interesting to see how everyone will adapt.

Spoiler:
I just didn't recognize my simself without the hair. RoseSims kinda vanished so the mesh for her hair isn't up there. I have it in my folder but I can't remember what number it is :doh: Also familyfunds won't work if the last name is more than one word or if there is more than one in the neighbourhood with the same last name. Since Malcolm's last name is Landgraab IV it won't work. I can't do it for the Van Brauns because of that. Anywho, nice chapters looking forward to seeing what happens.

Finally got to read this. It was so much fun!
Spoiler:
Wow! Mortimer is one heck of a kingdom-establisher! You've been taking notes from Nemo, haven't you?

Seeing all those simselves is awesome. And OMG! I LOVE MY DRESS! And my hair! And I'm just gorgeous, aren't I? :preens:

Wait, I'm married to Malcolm Landgraab IV? BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! Oh, this is going to be so much fun for me to read!

I love what you're doing with Cassandra, Nina, Dina, and Don. It just fits. Also, moving in the tutorial sims, the NPC legacy and Townie legacy... This is fantastic!

Yeah, it'll take forever, but you sure won't be bored!
