Thanks, I got pictures to work on my blog. And wow, do my pictures look nice when they aren’t crunched to death!

Some replies

sunnyday-rae said: I LOVE belladonna cove!! Haven’t played much of strangetown but I should!

It looks promising. Unfortunately, my PC has been acting up (I’m pretty sure it’s the new graphics card) lately and does not mesh well with Belladonna (or Middleground for that matter. Strangetown works, weirdly enough).

didilysims said: Wow. It blows my mind that people can be so rude. Perfect response though. :D

Eh, who does that sort of thing as some sort of power play has to deal with the consequences. Not even sorry.

katatty-main said: my favourite outcome is cassandra leaving HIM at the altar, but yeah, none of the optinos are fantastic

Oh yes! I remember meetme did this once and it was glorious. Hard to achieve in-game with the setup we got, unfortunately. 

It’s just a very disappointing scenario that... kind of leads nowhere. Also, Cassandra really lacks wedding options (her age).

jaydesims said: Maybe pair Cassandra with Mary-Sue? :P

Would be an idea, but for that, she would have to catch Daniel cheating first (and he’s been a doting husband in that save).

reblogged this 

and added:

What’s that symbol on top of Alexander’s head? Marriage cancelled? LOL Don is the absolute worst

It’s a memory of his sister being left at the altar, I think.

Lazy & late replies

Sorry, life’s crazy right now (also, I’m pretty sure I missed some replies, I’m sorry!)

didilysims said: Aw what a cute idea! Darn roaches, spoiling the field trip. :(

It was the evil witch! It’s all her fault. Maybe I should send Kaylynn to “talk” to her...

didilysims said: We’ll love and support you no matter what your dreams are. ;) Good luck on all the studying. You can do it!

Thanks! I actually passed it (with a B+- whooop!), so no weird career choices for me!

holleyberry said: Perhaps Orlando will need glasses.

I’m sorry, but I think something got lost in translation here? Why would he need glasses to go on a date?

holleyberry said: Oh boy.

I was so into the idea of Sophie and Timothy as a couple. And then THIS! Oh boy indeed.

eulaliasims said: Maybe graduate her and make her a townie if you don’t feel like adding her to the playable population?

holleyberry said: I was going to suggest turning her into a townie too. Or Honorary citizen! Maybe move her into an existing house, like with Jan, or something.

katatty-main said: i think making her a townie is a good option, too! you can use that “age up with” feature after that, maybe?

Thank you guys! Sure, turn her into a townie! Why didn’t I think of that! Damn... (Although, the thought of making her playable and moving her in with Jan... Sophie’s LTW would actually make for a pretty interesting story line...)

katatty-main said: i dunno about vampires being out of the question, the desert gets pretty dark at night!! plus olive makes a fantastic vampire, the whole black widow thing…

I’m from western Europe, so I’ve never even seen a desert. Uh, yes, Olive would be a great vampire, I mean, she’s already got the whole aesthetic... Slowly but surely, Strangetown turns into a wild card. Maybe make it a supernatural sanctuary, @sajlica?

katatty-main said: do you watch the uk im a celeb, or is there a german version? i’m in england and its popular here, but not as much as it used to be, maybe?

We have our own version, which airs in January (aka right now). Casting highlights include a guy who was the boyfriend of a Germany’s Next Top Model contestant (and broke up with her on air or sth?) and a woman with severe phobias who somehow decided that being a contestant in a show filmed in a jungle was a good idea. The commentary is pretty good, though. Most people only watch it for that, the contestants seem to get more boring every year (don’t follow it very closely).

I suck at Replies...

(Christmas break was extremly busy, sorry)

Cuddles meets Famine:

cindysimblr said: Meow! Great picture :D

That’s the one picture of them I took that wasn’t them fighting. They do not get along at all.

Ripp-Ophelia-Johnny Love triangle:

strangetomato said: <3

holleyberry said: Ripp yes!

strangetomato said: Aww. :(

We’ll see what happens.

Dinner-for-one reblog (beating a dead horse):

didilysims said: I was thinking of this while setting the table for New Year’s. :)

XD. Ever watched it (it’s probably on Youtube)? When my grandparents were still alive, my grandfather often imitated James. He was nearly blind, so a few times it was not quite voluntary. ^^

Me debating whether to start a BACC:

katatty-main said: im always attempting to start baccs, too! i never even finish building the starter houses, haha

mooseabides said: Story of my life! Haha.

eulaliasims said: A succinct summary of every bacc I’ve tried to start too.

I feel you. BACCs are hard, especially since I have the attention span of a goldfish, zero patience and have difficulties connecting with self-made Sims... Gets even worse because I had to read so many Victorian novels for college that I kind of want to play a Victorian/ old timey BACC... Yeah, that ain’t happening...

Non-Sims text post about I’m a celebrity - get me out of here:

asimminggibbon said: Big in Ireland!

Good to know! My parents watch it religiously and since it started yesterday, it’s dominating the news. Wondered if this was just something German people inexplicitly love.

Someone was concerned about my WTF post, but I’ve since deleted it. I actually answered it via reply, but I’m not sure if it reached you. Nothing bad happened, just watched the new Sherlock episode (I’m studying English, that’s kinda mandatory XD) and felt the need to express myself.

PC struggles

wearyvagabond said: Nvidia GTX 1060 works great with Sims 2 after minimal fiddling; I’d definitely recommend upgrading

itsyedude said: It’s best to get the 10 series over the 7 series since it’ll be supported longer. So definitely go for a GTX 1050 Ti. A GTX 1060 GTX will pretty much run almost anything without issue.

Thank you for your suggestions. I will look into it.

Middleground’s birthday

katatty-main said: oooh, exciting!! :D

I don’t think I’ve ever played a neighbourhood for that long. Except for that one I played like ten years ago, but I just kept on adding Sims to it (and didn’t play on a rotational basis), so I’m not sure it counts.

Term papers and Trumps

sushigal007 said: Good luck! And on the bright side, you’ve got a whole lot of material to work with!

God, I wish. Unfortunately, our history department is like really old-fashioned and strongly advises us to only use published sources (books and academic articles, basically). They only allowed us to use online sources this year, and highly limit what we can and cannot use. Otherwise, I would probably just print out every tweet Trump’s ever made regarding his politic on Russia and hand that in... so maybe it’s a good idea to impose those restrictions?

German book titles

simspressionism said: German titles are so weird most of the time

SO MANY FORCED PUNS! Stuff that’s only half translated. Fantasy books that are named after their protagonists. I would like to meet the marketing teams that come up with those titles...

katatty-main said: as far as i know, nodormieregen will only stop random generations,it doesnt supress them altogether so dormies will still appear if dorm rooms need filling, kinda like hiw NPCs generate when needed. to stop dormies altogether ud need a different mod :(

Ah, yeah, I guess that’s it. Although I could have sworn that I had empty dorm rooms before...

annegirl13 said: I have a student who informed me the other day that he was a bird. He proceeded to chirp and squawk at me for about 10 minutes. It was cute. :)

How cute! That girl also informed me that I was her mom now. Even have a little goodbye letter signed with “Best of luck to you, Mom Miss S.” Kind of cute, kind of concerning. I loved it there.
