1. Welcome to my new legacy. This will be an Uglacy designed to create
the ugliest possible sim in 10 generations. Here is my founder - the very
pretty Disney Ugmo. All the family members will be named after Disney
characters - I find this delightfully ironic as Disney is known mostly for
it's cutesy stuff. This will also be a Matriachy - meaning that only
females can be heirs.
Disney is a Family Sim - A Cancer with 7 Neat, 5 Outgoing and Active
and 4 Playful and Nice points. Her LTW is to graduate 3 children from
college. Shouldn't be too hard, right?
2. This is also a petacy, beginning with the founder - a giant
schnauzer called Picard. All the pet heirs will be named after Star
Trek characters. Why? Because I said so that's why!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**** At this point I would like to offer a disclaimer. What you are
about to witness in this chapter is some pretty awful Sims 2 playing
and awful abuse of a poor helpless sim. I apologise in advance for
this... or if you like that kind of thing then I hope you enjoy!
3. Here is our um... start. Did I mention the handicaps yet? I went
for an extreme start on a 5x6 lot but had to spend 1200 on the
legacy tree. For some reason I was granted 20500 at start and I
was going to family funds away 500 but i mean... 300 simoleons
after the tree purchase would have barely bought me a toilet...
The other handicaps are as follows: One way street (No Elixers),
Free Roaming Ghosts, Storyteller (Founder and heirs must publish
a novel), Fearless (Must choose on job chance cards, must not
use repairman or influence to repair broken electronics, no burglar
alarm, no fire alarm [this last one i added myself]). I'd like to add
one of my own making as well called Desired Job - should a Sim
(not pets) be fired from a job, they cannot attempt that same
career path again UNLESS it is their LTW. I sense a long, hard
road ahead of me...
4. First things first - find a job. Preferably something that's starting
today that we can get to because we have a grand total of $30
available to us...
Huzzah!! Disney Ugmo will begin her career as a stand-up
comedian commencing at 3pm. Given the amount of ugliness and
general discomfort that she's about to experience i think she'll
have a lot of material.
Picard will begin in the Security industry as a Snooper deterrent at
7pm. So, tonight you might be able to afford a fridge, or at the
very least a grill.
"Just for the record, Lanthal, I hate you so very very much right
now. In fact, I'm not sure that I could hate you any more than this."
Hmmm... I think we should try for Komei as a beginning mate.
"Turns out I was wrong. NOW I truly hate you."
5. "In FULL VIEW of the street... You couldn't have put the toilet on
the OTHER SIDE of the wall?"
6. First impressions from the neighbours:
Hannah: I'm desperate to get a ring!
Marcel: I'm having a fantasy involving Hannah, John, a Llama and
a LOT of jello!
7. Apparently Disney didn't look poor enough so Jill kicked over the
trash can to accentuate the poverty just that little bit more.
9. $240 later and Disney has a new couch and a phone, with just
enough left over to order a pizza in the morning. Oh, yeah! Living
in style!
10. "*twitch* I am *twitch* going to go nuts *twitch* and it's only been
one day... At least I can marry a Sim quickly and get some more
funds going, right? RIGHT?!?"
Well... actually eXtreme start rules mean that you can't marry for a
week.
“... *sob*... "
11. "You know the funny thing about having absolutely no money at
all? You have to go to a restroom in a Sports Park to practice your
charisma and have a shower! Wait, did I say funny? I meant
mind-numbingly depressing... And as it turns out you CAN'T
practice charisma at the Sports Park making my journey out here a
waste of time!"
12. Here's a prospect for a suitor... Stuart Jakobsen. I think we can do
better though...
13. Certainly can't hurt to network though. This guy seriously can't
stop thinking about himself... he is doing it ALL the time.
18. Hunting bugs for fun while we wait for the dog to come home with
a paycheck.
19. "Seriously, can we get a shower here?"
Maybe if the dog brings home enough money. Personally I'd like a
fridge first. You can't die of poor hygeine.
Just stand there and primp for now.
20. Our saviour! Success on our first chance card and Picard comes
home with a promotion! $600 added to the funds! I was able to
add a bar fridge and give Picard a chewtoy. Still no shower/bath
though.
21. "HATE! So much hate!!! I'd rather be in an Apocalypse!!!"
22. Such a bleak, bleak picture here. I'm not sure what I'm going to
do to get this legacy on track.
23. Ladies and gents, we might have a winner here. Charlie Tang,
he's got a nice big jaw going there and....
24. He's got a profile like an Easter Island head! Look at that NOSE!
25. All I gotta do is get Disney in the mood to do *anything*. We're
back at the sports park where she can get her hygeine back up
and help her fun out as well. Meeting Charlie will help her social.
She is a very unhappy sim right now.
---------------------------------------
*** Being new to Apartment life, I had NO clue what was
happening with all the sparkly stuff. Still don’t, really.
26. "I'm seriously considering legal representation for the way I've
been treated so far!"
Charlie: Oh, sweetie, you know nothing of hardship. Talk to sims
who have been through legacies of Candi020765 or Cowforbrains.
THEN talk to me.
---------------------------------------------
If you're reading this and haven't, at the very least, read
Candi020765's Uglacy then stop reading and do that first!
27. The sink is broken, the dog smells, the best meal Disney can make
is a lunchmeat sandwich, there are holes all over the place and
weeds as well. To top it off, Disney has another day off and
therefore the income is still so minimal. This is going oh, so
poorly. Forget Disney, *I'm* about to start crying!
29. Now HERE is a future spouse! I can see the future being very
bright if I can get him on board!
30. Unfortunately Disney was so exhausted that she fell asleep in the
middle of the road before I could get her to greet him. She woke
up to find Picard's car bearing down on her. At this point I noticed
that she had a want to sell Picard!! I'm getting a bit concerned
about her.
31. Picard's paycheck means desk and chair! Now Disney can get
some fun up at home and I can get her to skill up in charisma and
get a promotion. She can also start working on her novel as is
required by the Storyteller handicap.
32. "Why hello there! No, it's not at *all* creepy that you greeted me
as I walked out of a toilet stall!"
33. We made $36 selling the fruit from the legacy tree! That does
almost nothing to help but it's a start, right? Incidentally, it is
entirely this tree's fault - the fact that it cost $1200 that Disney is
going through this hardship.
34. It's taking everything I have to keep Disney going that poor Picard
is being rejected. Curse you, eXtreme start! I need a sim moved
in here now!! 3 more days until i can get a Sim in here!
35. Thanks a lot chance card... Disney lost her job...
36. La Shawn does not approve of Disney's aroma. I love the calm
look on Disney's face that just seems to say. "One day I shall find
and kill you."
37. Stuart Jakobsen is not only Disney's only friend, he's very good at
cleaning for us as Disney has ZERO desire to do anything.
38. No, really, this is the ONLY spot where he pees. Right next to the
toilet.
39. Some pillow-fighting was a good fix for her fun and social freefall,
but it was only temporary and wasn't enough to get her in a good
enough mood to look for a new job. She really needs a good
night's sleep and a decent feed.
40. As it is, the best i can get her to do is binge on instant meals. With
winter approaching and being totally unable to afford walls I felt at
this point that things were going to go very, VERY badly.
42. Everytime Disney falls down asleep i hear the aspiration
completion dinging sound. I think Picard secretly enjoys watching
Disney's demise...
43. I only noticed much later that there was a grill at the Sports Park
which would have helped to fill both hunger and social at the same
time while allowing Disney to refresh herself in the showers
downstairs. ARGH!
44. Holy BOOLPROP! Look at that face!! This guy looks like his
hobby is running at brickwalls! We'll be hanging onto this one for a
few generations time!
45. Yeah... see *this* is bad... when the snow starts falling and she's
still living outdoors... She only has to last the night and then we
can move in Stuart to be her breeding companion. I hope she
lasts the night...
46. There was a lot of snow falling and the poor girl was freezing to
death so I sent her downtown to warm up with some coffee and
get out of the cold. Of course, that meant spending the last few
pennies she had.
47. I sold everything except the the dog bowl, the phone and the desk
that the computer was sitting on (the one that whatsizname gives
you). I couldn't put the computer back into Disney’s inventory and
eXtreme rules state that you can't sell it. So the desk had to stay
as well.
48. I gave her something to do (i.e. call Stuart and max that friendship
as much as possible before inviting him over) in the hopes that she
would remain indoors and relatively warm...
49. And, of course, she got sick with the flu. Yay. She just kept
hacking away outside no matter how many times i asked her to go
indoors.
50. Eventually I lured her inside with the promise of calling for delivery
food (which I promptly broke) and she fell asleep on the floor.
51. Stuart came around first thing Monday morning and out of sheer
desperation more than anything else I got him to move in with
Disney to (hopefully, please, Boolprop) begin the next generation
of this, so far, disastrous legacy.
52. Turns out Stuart is a lowly Bookie with only $2000 to his name but
that is a LOT more than what we had before so we'll take it. He's
a 9/2/6/3/5 Knowledge sim with a LTW to become a Criminal
Mastermind
53. Our new humble abode... not much but it has a fridge a bed and a
shower. That'll do Pig... that'll do.
55. They had to join forces to clean up outside because no matter how
green she was indoors, the instant Disney stepped outside she
was in a bad mood.
56. "What have I gotten myself into with this vermin infested cesspool
of a legacy lot?”
57. "Ugh, these holes are never-ending. I really dislike that dog..."
It took a REALLY long time to fill in these three holes.
58. I was finally able to get Disney in a good enough mood to look for
a new job and she got promoted! That's what I wanted to see! A
bit of extra income to try and make their lives a bit more livable so
that they can start popping babies.
59. It's not much of an extention but there's a Microwave! They can
start eating real(er) food!!
60. With Disney finally in a good mood, I was able to get her started on
her novel for the storytelling handicap.
61. Another promotion - to Con Artist - means that we have bit more
money to liven the place up. Should save up for the wedding and
the kids though methinks.
62. “So I hear that Yoosung the pizza delivery guy was concieved
during a visit to the zoo!”
This is Keira Andrews. Stuart has been heartfarting non-stop
around her and autonomously admiring her. This is a problem that
may need to be dealt with.
63. We spent some of the promotion money on a bath so that poor
Picard could finally get washed and on some flooring and wall
coverings to make the environment inside a bit more appealing.
64. Disney was promoted to Rookie and brought home yet another
ugly candidate. Doing this as a Matriachy should work out pretty
well I think...
65. "Stuart... you aren't the prettiest to look at, but you don't look like a
bulldog either, so you're good enough for me. Howzabout we get
hitched?"
66. And so they're engaged.
"The only way that *I'd* get engaged to someone like Stuart would
be if he made a wish to a genie!"
67. I don't care how much of a neat sim you are... when commanded
to clean the smelly, disgusting toilet that is giving off green fumes it
should not be met with an enthusiastic "Yeah!" gesture.
74. The party took a bizarre twist when Luc decided he needed a bath.
The party finished as a roof raiser, however, and all was well.
75. And as the Limo pulls away I shall leave this first chapter here. It’s
been a *rough* ride up until now.
Next chapter will see the children introduced and this legacy really
starts rolling. Still not really sure where the money is going to
come from though…
