It’s 3rd February, 00:07 here which means... IT’S @goneril-capp‘s BIRTHDAY!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! *sings happy birthday song very loudly and badly*
I hope you have such an amazing birthday and wishing you all the best! Hopefully you have a lot of cake, a lot of simming and receive a lot of warm and tight hugs!
Hi! The Diva gown is GORGEOUS! I'm so gonna use it for my Decades Challenge. I was wondering if you could tell me where to find the blonde's hair though? Please and thanks... and just heart eyes all around!
Ho
Hi! Thank you so much, I’m glad that you enjoy this dress and will use it for your game <3 Is vanilla cancelled? :D This hair is by @wondercarlotta, I’m in love with it!
Thank you so much for all the responses on this round! Even if you didn’t comment, I saw all your likes and even a couple of reblogs! It always made my day. I’m slowly playing through the Jacquet round now, so I’m tentatively going to say that’ll be out by the end of the month/early September. (A lot of this depends on whether or not I get another job. I’ve got an interview on Monday. Cross your fingers for me!)
Anyways, there’s a ton of replies here, so I am putting them under a cut. (Incidentally, does anyone else find it annoying that replying with x-kit puts all your replies in order from most recent to least recent? Sometimes I go through and copy/paste them in the right order, but I didn’t feel like it tonight...)
Thanks again, friends! I’ll see you again soon in Bluewater.

To be honest I didn’t even remember these two from TS2 times! But it was really fun to read about them! I loved that
*You made their personalities so complex. Jodie is not Ms Perfect as it may seem at first, and she has issues of her own! And I loved that both siblings found someone! Both matches are perfect! Although I’m a bit worried about both John and Jodie wanting to marry a rich sim ! :O and also wonder what will happen with Jason and Sheila since Sheila is afraid of marriage...
Thanks so much for all the comments on the round! It was always nice to see your thoughts and reactions. I feel like none of the Bluewater sims are really well known (except maybe Malcolm, who has other incarnations in other games). Jason and Jodie came in the Sim Bin with Bluewater, which meant you had to add Bluewater Village to your base neighborhood and then check the bin to find them and then put them in a house. They don’t show up a lot in most people’s stories.
That being said, I’m so glad you liked how I portray them. I was initially thrown off by them this time because in a previous incarnation of Bluewater, they got along so well! I like them more after this round. I think we’ll see a bit of conflict with both their stories as we continue on, and I think John and Sheila will be perfect to add more spice to their round as well.
Thanks again!
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Our other new sim is John Whitaker, Jodie’s boyfriend and new...”
He’s quickly become one of my faves too!
John is pretty awesome. I’m hoping to see him around a bit more.
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Before we end the round, let’s meet the new sims who have joined the...”
Sims logic: “wants to get engaged; fears getting married” lol I look forward to seeing where their story go!!
Yep. Silly sims. I’d like to spend a bit more time with Jason and Sheila next time and see how things develop.
holleyberry replied to your photoset “Holy crap. I was not expecting to enjoy the Larsons. I really,...”
I enjoyed the round. The sibling rivalry between these two is always fun. I think they both have good points and I hope that now that they are on their own they can reconcile their relationship.
I’m glad you enjoyed. I loved seeing your likes and comments as you went through. I think living apart is definitely going to be good for the twins, but they definitely need to find time to sit and hash everything out, even if they don’t want to.
mishas-sims reblogged your photoset and added:
the Larsons are on of my favorite pre-made families from the Sims 2. I love who you chose to be their significant others. My Jodie almost always ends up with Malcom Landgrab and my Jason almost always ends up with John Mole
Cool! I chose townies for both of them because I have a rule about that in my neighborhood rules. (Also Malcolm is spoken for. Kind of.) I’ve always wanted to try getting Jodie and Malcolm together, though. I almost thought about including her in his bachelor challenge at the start of the round, but decided against it because she’d already met John. Thanks for reblogging and adding your thoughts! :)

Just can't stop laughing at bland face one downtownie. I really enjoyed the round. I can't wait for round four!
I can’t wait either! We’ve got five more families to get through, so it might take a little while, but we’ll get there eventually! John’s face may be bland, but it’s also really cute. I feel like we simmers sometimes make fun of the premade face templates, but a lot of them are nice. You might have noticed that, although I gave him a bit of a makeover, I couldn’t really stray too far from his original look. It was just too iconic.
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “On the last night of his part of the round, Jason took Sheila to...”
Awww! Congratulations to the happy couple! This won’t be the only glitch they’ll have to face in their married life and Jason did great not to change his plans because of it haha
Jason may fly by the seat of his pants a lot, but he’s also very determined. Besides, proposing by the fountain made for way better pictures anyways. (I really need to redesign Londoste to have a good table for engagements...)
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Back at Jason and Sheila’s house, Sheila is the unluckiest sim I...”
Lol this sim is cursed!
She really must be! Neither the fire nor the robbery were planned. I’m looking forward to what else happens with Sheila next time around. She definitely keeps life interesting!
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Jodie finally got her night with John. As she finally fell asleep with...”
Yessss! This is so sweet! :)
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Jodie was drunk, tired, and upset about the fire when John got her to...”
Still, poor Jodie has needs too...:p
Yes. Yes, she does.
anotherplumbob replied to your photoset “Sheila slunk off to bathe (and have a good cry). Jodie let Jason have...”
Thank God John was there!! Also, Jodie has a point: she burnt the freaking kitchen down lol
That’s the thing -- both twins have a point. Sheila didn’t set the kitchen on fire on purpose. She’s just seriously unlucky. But, she did burn the house down and Jason wasn’t taking that seriously or respecting his sister’s feelings. Like I said, at some point these guys are going to have to sit down and talk things out. Whether or not that happens in Round 4, we’ll have to wait and see.
In the meantime, thanks again to everybody who liked, commented, and reblogged this round. I really had a lot of fun with it and I’m excited to see what happens next. See you soon!
