[katrisims]

So it's less than 30 minutes from midnight here, and here comes our last update of the year 2016! It's back to Lakewood and to the beginning of the fourth week. I hope you enjoy the update, and if you feel inclined to comment, that's welcome anywhere.

And while I'm at it: Happy New Year! Here's hoping it's a really good one. Have fun, and stay out of the way of the fireworks!

Welcome, welcome, the party is still on! :)


He really does! I had to correct their names while writing the updates because they look so much alike. I've had an idea for a while to how to do the ace thing, but this is the first time that it's come up in randomization, so we'll see how that works in practice.

As for the randomization method, I use the sim randomizer that I made a couple years back. That takes care of aspiration, secondary aspiration, turn ons and off plus gender preference for me. I used to let ACR randomize gender preference, but it had a couple of minus sides. First, it didn't have the ace option, which I wanted, and second, it apparently seems to go in bursts. So basically, it first tends to make a lot of straight sims, then notices that "oh, we don't have enough gay sims" and makes a lot of gay sims in a row, and so on.

It's a pretty handy thing about the tip money! I don't know if it's a bug or a feature, but I'm sure the Davidsons will be taking advantage of it in the future, too.

Yeah, I think the smart milk will make up for the goof in the long run. :)

Thank you! I'm not much of a builder, but with the BaCC, I've had fun making the businesses. I'm pretty happy with how the studio turned out, and it seemed to work as a business too.

Lauren did grow up quite pretty, I think she most have gotten the best of both parents. I'm looking forward to seeing how things turn out for her.

Yeah, it does go quickly. So far I haven't broken the no elixir handicap, so it feels really quick. I actually have to pay attention to how I do college, because otherwise the parents will be dead before Lauren comes back.


Thank you Sam, and thanks for reading and commenting! :)

I have the sim randomizer, I haven't actually used the gender preferences function - that's so cool! I know what you mean about the ACR randomizer, it's not the best method.
