New Laptop

Aye! I'm still here. Simming has kind of come to a halt for me. My new gaming laptop should arrive this week so I'll have to reinstall and all that jazz. I'll get going again as soon as I have that up and running. My son gets my old one for his gaming habit and college. If that wasn't all happening I wouldn't get a new one because I'm quite happy with my current one. Anyway, if I'm absent again for awhile that's probably why. Shouldn't take me long to get it all configured.

On a side note, I've been playing RIFT for fun. That's another 14 hour download I'm not looking forward to on my new laptop. Ah well, I'll sleep through most of it. RIFT is quite fun and the community isn't like WoW, which is what I was looking for, and my son will join me once I pass him my old laptop. It's always nice to game with a buddy. And it's a way to keep in touch with him while he's away. Work has been really bad lately so I've needed a more aggressive game to bust the stress. Sims is great and all, but a little warm and fuzzy for the problems I've been having at work.

So on the simming front, not much to report. Once the computer jazz gets all ironed out I plan to get back to it. Maybe I'll make a website again for my screenshots and stories. I've got a couple lot revamps planned and if I ever get my "office" room organized I might find my floorplans for other lots I wanted to do. If not, I'll just go download some new ones in time. And of course I'll be back at TSR to redownload all my favorite things again.

C'est la vie.

Old Town Tales - The Founding of Old Town

Despite its name, Old Town isn't old at all...relatively speaking.  In terms of communities, Old Town is relatively recent.  Maybe it isn't as old as New York or Los Angeles or Sim City, but it's still quite young and--as it was originally intended to be--mostly undeveloped.  Old Town was created and so named because its founders, disgusted by the way technology and progress were destroying the concepts of society, decided to start their own community that would hold onto and defend the "old ways" of life.

Founding Old Town did not come easily.  In fact, all of Old Town is a single vast property originally purchased by a coalition of community members and "donated" to a leadership committee that oversaw and guided the growth of Old Town.  To purchase such a huge tract of land required immense sums of money.  However, thanks to the significant contributions of a few rich and poweful families (and a lot of smaller prosperous but less-well-off families), the purchase was made.

The greatest contributions came from five main families:  the Landgraabs, the Goths, the Silvers, the Golds, and the Rutherfords.  The Goths, who gave up nearly all of the fortune they brought with them from the Old Country to the new community, are usually credited with contributing the most financially, but it was the popular Silvers who provided the early leadership of Old Town, the mechanically-savvy Golds (actually only Mr. Gold, since he was the last of his family) who kept everything running, the charismatic Rutherfords who kept everyone's spirits up until Old Town could become self-sustaining, and the business-minded Landgraabs who effectively invested the coalition's funds to help Old Town prosper.  With the exception of the Landgraabs (who kept their mansion in Bluewater Village, the large property they had themselves owned and leased out and had then donated to Old Town), the other founding families now live in the largest mansions of Founders' Way.  The other families who made lesser contributions to the founding of the town can also be found on Founders' way, but in the smaller mansions.

As a community still developing, Old Town continues to experience some growing pains.  An influx of younger residents and an expansion in the originally families' sizes have required the development of more businesses and public places:  whereas before the families could live like landed gentry, with large properties to visit and have fun on, now--to spare older relatives the onslaught of loud voices and music--they needed to find other places to hang out at.  In addition, some progress and technology had to be allowed into their community--they had to keep up with the modern world, no matter how much they disliked some of its changes.  To that end, Old Town began with a few small places here and there in the center of town--the Old Town Public Library and Museum was one such place, as was Grand Gazebo Park.  In addition to a beach park and a small shopping complex, there were also a pet shop, a pet park, a coffee shop, and a fishing hole, as well as the small businesses operating in Bluewater Village.  The leadership committee also developed the Downtown District, to which the influx of technology and progress could be mostly contained.

Old Town continues to grow, and with its founders steadily aging, it's only a matter of time before some new services will need to be offered.  The leadership committee has already begun passing along their responsibilities to their heirs, and one of their last decisions is to build a community center and a senior living retirement complex next door to each other so those of them that decide to get away from the hustle-and-bustle of their family homes can live out their days in peace and comfort with others who share their sentiments.

Just to let you know: Still playing Sims2 :-)

As you can see I still haven't created anything new and I still don't know if I will ever again as my time is so limited - but I still enjoy playing VERY much! I'm pretty sure I'll keep on playing until Sims4 is released - IF it is any better than Sims3 and comes back to the gameplay from Sims2 (in the way that you can control every Sims' life again without them making important choices all on their own while you're playing other families...). And if Sims4 keeps on with that - well, I guess then I'll be playing Sims2 for another 7 years and more ;-)

Best wishes and happy simming :-)

~!Meteor Shower!~

My sim was at school and ther box in the upper-right hand corner said "Jessica wonders why it got so dark...". Right after my sim left to go home a meteor hit the school! Everyone there was burned. I don't know if anyone died... Has this happened to your sims before...?
