Again, I'll combine the two posts of the day into one, as they'd otherwise come in pretty close succession.

This week, despite the approaching Christmas, I managed to get some time to sim, mostly in the weekend. Yesterday I finished playing the Fortunato household, and today I finished typing the update. I like how the type as I play thing works for this challenge! Oh, and again I wrote a little bit for the Bookacies too. Chapter 42 is now on 33 slides. I'm now excited for two things: next, I get to play Brandi's challenge, and after that, I think I'll play the Bookacies! It's been ages.

I again think I may have the hack thing cornered, as I didn't manage to reproduce it a single time while playing the Fortunatos, and with two sims able to dazzle. We'll see, but even if it turns out that it's not in my current quarantine folder, it might be that I'll then just live with it. It's been way too long since I played Alphabetia.

But, in any case, there was an update to be had!



As always, comments are welcome anywhere if you feel inclined to leave them. :) I hope you enjoy the update!

Never a dull day with the Daniels! Although it was mostly Daniel F. that was super busy and Daniel P. took care of the being pregnant part. ;)

And definitely Daniel F.'s LTW contributed to the busy busy week. It does go pretty well together with running a business, that's a good way to meet and socialize with new sims. Doing it without a matchmaker could otherwise be pretty painful I think.

Thanks! The buffet does get money for each portion that the sims eat, but not terribly much, and the food can't be actively sold - the customers will just grab a plate when they're hungry. And the price can't be adjusted either, it is what it is (I think 15 simoleans for salad and gelatin and 30 for turkey). So that's why I started selling tickets. In the end, tickets were "expensive", meaning 10 simoleans per hour, so it never really became profitable. I could have of course inflated the price and the sims would have paid it, but somehow I didn't want to. My original plan was to make money on the food, and the tickets were just a backup plan, and it would have felt a little cheaty in this particular challenge. Oh well, I hope the next one will be more profitable.

Hmm yeah, the baby items are originally by Maxis, I think bonus/store items of some kind. I've got modified versions, but have a hard time remembering what they were... I think I have the ones by Honeywell, on MTS. I think they're pretty cute. :)

I got to start on playing Brandi a little bit yesterday, and so far she and her challenge are a lot of fun!

Thanks for reading and commenting, Lorin! ^^
