Sims 2 challenges

They’re going mad

simsing — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 03:29:40 +0000

This Big Brother life is getting to the inmates. They’re going crazy.

First it was Elizabeth.

(Notice Jah seems to be falling in love with her as he goes inside.)

Then it was Ron.

Elizabeth found him seemingly begging on the street.

Her moment of sanity passed, however.

Harry and Sonia saw she’d definitely lost it. But then, perhaps, so had Harry…

Things were not looking good. Time for an eviction.

The housemates spent Saturday morning in pairs, as if to say goodbye.

Jah and Sonia played cards.

Harry and Elizabeth hung out in the bathroom, of all places.

And Ron and Shanika, surprisingly, lay on the grass together, staring at clouds.

Voting time was upon them. Jah was worried.

And…… the most popular housemate of the week was, again,

Elizabeth (who spent her 1000 Simoleon award on a florist bench).

The loser? Most likely because of his flirting…

Harry.

He didn’t look the same with that hairstyle anyway.

Two men, three women left. What’s up in Week 4?

The calm

After that nightmare of a day, things settled down and the housemates did their own things.

Shanika played cards…

Ronald spent time on the computer…

Harry lazed around in the spa.

Elizabeth and Jah spent time together. Perhaps the suffering of catching on fire had brought them together.

But then Jah went and spent some time with Shanika.

But things weren’t so easy-going as they appeared to be.

Sonia caught Harry flirting with Shanika..

then Jah went running to tell off Shanika.

I’ve lost touch with who’s in love with who(m?).

Next up, the third eviction. Who will it be? I have no idea.

A fiery week

The six Sims left in the Big Brother household were all safe. However, due to lack of custom content, three of the Sims now have different hairstyles.

Jah and Harry look a bit different. Elizabeth’s hair’s a bit different too.

The inmates were doing the usual stuff, ignoring eating and sleeping, when a fire broke out after a storm outside. Jah was first on the scene.

Shanika was next on the scene and panicked along with Jah.

Sonia then ran out to come and see the fire. Unfortunately, Jah caught fire.

This was supposed to be Big Brother not Survivor so I got Sonia to try to extinguish Jah.

It took time…

Once Jah seemed to be out, Sonia tried to tackle the bed which had now caught fire.

Elizabeth ran out to join them all.

But then Elizabeth caught fire!

Shanika also caught fire and Sonia was too busy trying to extinguish her to notice Elizabeth on fire behind her.

Luckily Ronald ran out and realised what was happening and started to extinguish Elizabeth.

I was laughing my head off while this was all happening.

By the time all the flames were out, it was daylight and everyone was tired, hungry and very very stinky.

It wasn’t the greatest of days. Ronald, realising that no-one was going to cook as usual, tried to cook something for everyone.

Luckily there was a fire alarm so no harm done, apart from some burnt macaroni cheese.

Success

I had backed up this household so all good. The evictions will continue. However, I had not backed up custom content, so until I find suitable hair, they’ll all look a bit retarded.

Getting there!

I have now successfully reinstalled up to Seasons. I may be able to continue soon IF I remembered to back up this family. If not, no big deal. I can start again. Stay tuned. I’ll be back in about a week with progress.

Not a happening thing

See this post about problems reinstalling. I can’t get the damned game to work. I hate Windows 7.

Out of action

simsing — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 23:19:37 +0000

The computer is still not fixed/replaced. When that happens I’ll update asap. Sorry for the delay.

Slight delay on updates

I haven’t been able to play Sims for a couple of weeks thanks to the computer playing up. Stay tuned…

The second eviction

simsing — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 03:29:39 +0000

This is a brief post. I did the same as before on the Sunday, calling the inmates into the room to get their votes. A lot had changed in one week. The inmates had got to know one another a lot better and the scores for each were close to 100 for each for the lifetime relationship scores.

Bard’s favourite Sim was Jah. His least favourite was Harry.

Elizabeth’s favourite Sims were Shanika and Sonia (that’s changed from last week). The lowest lifetime scores by a mere fraction were for Bard, Jah and Ronald (interesting!). Obviously she’s not getting enough attention from Bard.

Harry’s favourite Sims were Jah, Ronald and Shanika. His least favourite Sim was Bard.

Jah’s favourite Sims were Bard, Ronald (surprisingly) and Shanika (of course). His least favourite was (by a fraction) Elizabeth.

Ronald’s favourite Sims were obviously Shanika, and Harry. Ronald’s least favourite was Jah (for obvious reasons – see last post).

Shanika liked equally Ronald, Jah and Harry and wasn’t so fond of Bard.

Finally, Sonia. She liked Jah the most even though she’d been hugging and kissing Harry. Her least favourite by a mere fraction was Bard.

So, adding all the totals together, you may have guessed who was the least popular, because he tends to do stuff on his own: Bard

Seems some Sims thought it might be Harry.

I think Bard did too.

Elizabeth waves goodbye.

The most popular this week was Sonia, surprisingly. She spent her 1000 Simoleons reward on a double bed and a cheap mirror.

Down to six inmates now. If all the relationship scores are all going to be 100 it might be a problem finding a loser. Jealousy might lend a hand though…

Developments (or not)

It seems Shanika had more than one admirer.

Jah and Harry also wanted to be around her.

Jah played games at every opportunity and Ronald began to get suspicious.

Ronald and Jah did nothing about their hunger. They hadn’t learned at all, letting the women cook everything. They’d sooner starve than actually make something to eat for themselves. I had to take the bar away because the Sims would rather stand there drinking all day rather than make food.

The lazy bugger couldn’t be bothered going to the shower either so he kept complaining.

Elizabeth didn’t get any further with Bard. He too seemed to start to fall under the spell of Shanika.

Next up, the eviction. We can assume Shanika’s safe!
