The Game

You lost.

Anyways, the sims 3 hates me. It's not letting me finish building houses. I'll spend an hour in build mode making it perfect, then when I go to decorate it freezes. Pulling up the task manager reveals that it's "not responding". Unacceptable. I'm leaving it up to see if it unfreezes.

This week I have installed The Sims 3 three seperate times. Once when I had to reinstall Windows 7, once when I tried to get it to work on an external hard drive and again when I realised that I couldn't put it on the external. I really don't want to have to do it again.

When I was redownloading my CC I went a little crazy. I'm just under 300 package files. This time I backed everything up on my external, so if something happens I'll at the very least have that.

I just checked my task manager again. It's still not responding.

I just want to make a nice little post-apocalyptic house. That's all I ask.

Ubuntu

Well, I installed Ubuntu with Windows 7 a few nights ago. When I went to remove Ubuntu I deleted Windows aswell. I had to reinstall my Windows 7, thereby losing all of my saved data, including my legacy in the Sims 3.

So all of my hard work getting to the 6th generation of my legacy is gone.

All of my CC is gone.

FML.

Here I sit...

without my game. I left the disc at my boyfriend's house, and I'm pissed.

I guess I'll write an update for my legacy since I have nothing better to do.

I'm in my 6th generation. Maureen passed on from old age and left her young adult daughter as the current last surviving member of the legacy.

I've been trying to get her to hook up with a male sim, but since the most recent patch the "romantic" social option has gone away and is unavailable. I really don't want to have to reinstall. I also have excessive amounts of CC, and I don't know how to reinstall without losing all of it. I guess I could move it to the desktop.

I can't wait for my birthday. Hopefully, I will get Ambitions. I'll be turning 19 years old on July 20th.

My boyfriend bought and downloaded the sims 3 from EA, and it loads so much faster than it does from a disc. It's not just that his computer is faster than mine, because it isn't. Loading the selected game and family takes up to five min. for me, his takes about two. I'm wondering it I downloaded Ambitions from EA if I wouldn't have to use a disc anymore, and then if it would load faster. If you know, I would appreciate a comment or something.

I may go to a party tonight. It's my friend's 25thn birthday. I want to go, but I work at noon tomorrow, so I cant stay late, and I can't have too much fun. haha. I only go to partys if my boyfriend will go with me, so I'm gonna try to convince him.

I'm getting off topic, and starting to ramble. I think I'll go wander the forums aimlessly.

Legacy update

So, the last of the fourth generation children died today. They all lived full healthy lives. Now Maureen is the only one in the household. I hate to say it, but I'm glad the fourth gen is over. Five children was rough, then getting them married and having kids was the worst. Eight sim household limit can suck it, but at the same time if it was any more than eight my head may have exploded.

The household has about 105k in cash, so Maureen isn't working since her lifetime wish isn't career-related. She needs to master painting and writing, which is going well. I'm working on finding a mate for her, but it's hard since she's a loner. Maybe I'll just have her adopt.

In trying to find someone for Maureen I have noticed that my town is primarily elder females, and it almost seems that the remaining sims are elder males. I can't find a male young adult or adult for her to meet.

333 days with TSR

Today marks my 333rd day on TSR. More than anything that just makes me feel like I'm uninvolved. I only post in the forum if I have a question or problem with the game. I will go weeks without signing in. Then again, i'm a college student and I work, so I guess I can't be too hard on myself.

I have new screen caps of my legacy to put up, but I've been lazy.

I'm still in my 4th generation of my legacy. All of the 3rd gen sims have passed on. Ian's wife is currently pregnant, so the 5th gen is about to start. I hate baby sims though...

While waiting for my game to load...

I guess I should write an update for my legacy.

All five of the children are alive and healthy (surprisingly enough), and they recently aged up to young adults. I'm glad I don't have to "babysit" as much anymore.

I now have a journalist, cop, chessmaster, criminal, and artist.

What's new? New legacy, mad scientist, ect.

Ok, so far in my legacy:

First gen: I started with Clara Freece, she married, had one child - a boy, Chad.

Second gen: Chad married Janny. Clara died. Janny ended up reaching lvl 10 of the science career. Chad stayed unemployed, but painted.

Third gen: Chad and Janny had a boy. He married, they had two children and adopted two. Chad died in an...accident...where he /somehow/ got trapped in a room...with an oven...yeah.

Fourth gen: I have four children. Two are toddlers, two are babies still. Ian, Sylvia, Chance, and Graham.

I'm planning on having them adopt one more. Chad and Janny had this awful wish to have five grandchildren. I killed Chad to make room for the last child that my third gen will be adopting later, so Janny will get that fullfilled. I hought it would be fun to tackle that challenge. If it was just the parents, I couldn't do it, but with the help of Janny and a babysitter, it's working out just fine. The two children that I had them adopt were babies, but this last one will be a child. I cant handle another baby for my own sanity.

I'm blanking on my third gen's names...that's awful. The wife is unemployed since her main job has been popping out two babies and taking care of them and the adopted ones. The husband is an athlete, but he hasn't been to work in quite some time. I've been timing the adoptions so that he hasn't had to go for a while.

The legacy house looks great. Two stories. Four bedrooms (so far; I'll be adding some soon), two bath, study, two living, kitchen w/ dining bar thing. All of the appliances and electrinicas are either self-cleaning or unbreakable.

In the family's posession we have the collector helper and three deeds (one of which is the actual ownership of the grocerey store). Low on money? Check the deeds, if they don't have anything to be collected, find some gems.

I'll be getting some screen caps soon. I've been lazy.

It's been awhile...

since I posted a blog entry.

I'm watching Planet Earth on blu-ay.

My legacy got deleted from my computer somehow.

I haven't started another yet.

I'm working on some "zombie" sims.

I have to go pick my fiancee up from work soon, so I ought to go.

Legacy hiatus

I got World Adventures and now my legacy is on hold until the newness of it runs off. I'm constantly in Egypt with my new family.

I work in about an half an hour, so I think I'll play some WA before I have to leave.

Legacy part 2

Well, Leann, my founder, is doing well. She had a beautiful baby girl named Elise.

Leanns husband did die due to electrocution, so that wasnt too good, but the science labs brought him back. So although he is a ghost, he can still work and everything, including impregnate Leann again, which he did.

Elise is a toddler now. Leann taught her how to walk already, now on to potty training.

I did some rennovations to the house. The babys room is bigger now because apparently cribs dont fit in that small of a room. I need to add another room for Elise to move into to the new baby can be in the same nursery.

Well, Im off to work. Happy Holidays and the like.
