Household R,
Summer 2

2. - Hello and Welcome back to another episode of Instant City – a BaMC Challenge! We made a lot of progress this season
District-Building-wise, not so much on Subplots and family building… but don’t worry, we’re almost trough, and next
season, everything will become better…-
‘groovy, man…’
- Oh… right…. I expected some of you to yell, but you’re the slacker household, slacking off is what you do..-
‘… uhuh…’
-Well, enough slacking – lets start this thing…!-

3. -…first the cleaning of the inventories…-

4. -… then going to work again…-

5. -… except for R-1, who pays then the bills…-
‘Not cool, man – down with capitalism…’
-… okay – you have 500.000+, hand over the money, it belongs to the community…-
‘ No way, man – that’s mine!’
-… yeah, that’s what I thought…-

6. -… meanwhile: A local Studio Town music video director has asked Serva R-1 to cut together some stock 8mm footage he
needs to round out the transitions for a video. Serva R-1 only has a few hours, so she doesn't have any time to shoot any new
footage, but her stock of 8mm reels isn't very extensive. The director has asked for a single theme that will fit with the
"frantic, but youthful" nature of the video. Serva R-1 searches through her archive and settles on two options, a reel she has
of Sonny, SimCity's own tragic clown, or some old footage of bunny rabbits sneaking carrots out of a small residential
garden. … did I mention, that the cards in slacker have some of the strangest decisions you’ll have to make ever…?...-

7. -… I mean, read this: Serva R-1 looks at the Rabbit Footage and suddenly has the idea: in the little time left, she cuts the
material into 37 clips à 3 seconds, recolors all carrots to blue and runs the entire sequence backwards! Dann she hands the
8mm reel over personally to the director. After looking at serva R-1’s movie, the director is speechless. When he is finally able
to speak again, he tells her, that he lost all interests in material things and instead wants to live with the little critters. Before
he enters his new life as a bunny, he hands serva R-1 his last paycheck over 75. Simoleons! – this is…. Is… !-
‘Groooooooooovy… let’s join the man…. Bunnnieess…’
-NO!-
‘Awwww, man…’

8. -… and then it happens to Serva R-2… again…-
‘BUUUUN…!’
- I SAID NO! Don’t you know, that the Alien Space Bunnies are out there to get us? –
‘No way, man – for realz?!’
- Yep. –
‘Not radical, man…’

9. -… okay, so eventually the workday ended, everyone got promoted… and then got back to work right away…-

10. -… and we got promoted again… and then all the workday before the end of the season were already over again, and this
time, even when we later came back, no new work opportunity arose… you really do your reputation as slackers proud,
guys…-
‘All in a days work, bro…!’

11. -… again… enough with the slacking – buy a business…-

12. -… and it’s another Science La… I mean Research Laboratory by Uma Design…. Oh, what scientific wonders will we see
here…? -

13. -… um, ehrm… apparently we research… invisibility? –
‘ Woah – way cool, man…!’
-… yeah, yeah… cool, bro… we even have invisible researchers work here, eheh…-

14. -… guess that leaves us with another garden sale… research of invisibility requires a lot of concentration, so better not
disturb them…-
‘Totally with you, dude…’
-… I’m actually a bit confused now… normally I get moans and accusations from you Servos… agreeing with me? Not so
much…-
‘ Nah, bro… you’re swell… I mean, I love you, you pink elephant… hehehe… pink elephant … so pink…!’
-… whatever…-

15. -… and so we sell… all of our research- or crafting related items or whatever…-

16. -… get a prize…-

17. -… and reach level 5…okay, next one…-
‘Wooah – slow down bro, breathe…’
-… buy something, or I strangle you with my pink elephant snout…-
‘… radical…’

18. -… next stop is the Techzone by TheDeadSim, which will be our center for technology, computer and electronics…-

19. - …. For now it’s an electronics shop… we all have start somewhere…-

20. -… so everything’s set up for sale…-

21. -… and stuff is sold…-

22. -… and level 5… the sales business always go so fast, I never have the time to shoot a pic of something interesting…-

23. -… so next business: the Master of Machines Motor Club by mmmork…-

24. -… because even in a Science Hood, you’ll need Transportation, and if a car breaks… you’ll need a place to repair it…-

25. -… of course, this doesn’t mean, that we need to do any of that stuff, we can just set up the two snack automats for sale…-

26. -… and sell it to every poor dope that enters the lot…-

27. ‘ HEY! what do you mean – poor Dope?’
-…ehrm… great, now they notice me… oh, look, level 5, sorry business closed...-

28. -… so lets go back to the lab…-

29. -… get a restocking bronze badge..-

30. -… another one…-

31. -… and level 10… -

32. -… and before we leave the lab, we do some more recoloring to it…-
‘Woooah… lookat the pretty colors…’

33. -… and back to the Techzone… where we got another prize, but I forgot to take a picture…-

34. -… and Level 10 too..-
‘Wooooo… the world is…like… moving so fast, man…’

35. -… yes, and we’re moving with it… but before we move even further, a little redeco-ing of the Techzone… ah, much better…-
‘Uoooh… bro… I don’t feel so good…’
-… oh please, you’re a servo, you don’t get sick…-
‘*BAAAARF* vomits bolts and nuts…’
-… okay, that doesn’t sound good…-

36. -… okay, call an ambulance… no wait…. BUY an ambulance… and a hospital as well…! -

37. -… and so our science hood also got a hospital and… wait, a club? –
‘They said, it was a hospital, man…’
- What? Let me look… oh, apparently, the Club Gailezers by Hybrid 87 is a reproduction of the Gailezers Maternity Home in
Riga, Latvia. Which stood according to Hybrid 87 unfinished for more then 15 years – which he wrote in 2009…lets see…
hmmm… seems, like the hospital still exists and in the pic it looks like the maternity home does too… yeah, I like to look
these things up…-

38. -… anyway, we have maternity ho… hospitalnow, so let’s get our sick servo here and…-

39. -… party…. Oh yeah… it’s called a club after all… so what do we do now…?-
‘Radical, DUDE – PARTAY!’
-… I thought you were sick? –
‘Me? Imma Servo, Man… what did you smoke? Can I have some?’
-… oh shut up…-

40. -… lemme just redeco the Hospital a bit…-

41. -… and then…-
‘ARGH! SOOO DIRTY! EWWWW!’
-… yeah, due to whatever reason, everyone in the entrance hall of the hospital suddenly had a giant breakdown in
environment, never seen that before… so to make money out of this…-

42. -… we placed a ticket machine outside… also changed the layout a bit further…-

43. -… and then just started to sell tickets…. And since nobody so far in the hood complained about any illnesses- certain
morons excluded - it didn’t really matter that the hospital wasn’t really a hospital, but a club supposed to have mindless
fun… -

44. -… oh, and a restaurant too… unfortunately it turned out that the tables are so far away from the kitchen, that the guest
leaves before we can even serve… that’s why I removed the restaurant podium… also, Sims have such a long way to go to
the actual club part, they often leave after going there… in fact, most people just stand before the entrance, playing games
with each other… yeah, not all lots are meant to be great businesses and avenues of joy…-

45. -… okay, we still made it to level 5…-

46. -… so we go one more time over to the Motor Club, play a round of pool…-

47. -… before we push this business as well to 10…-

48. -… and do a recoloring on the motor club as well….-

49. -…as well as trying out one more thing… we all know these car wrecks from Freetime… aside from the fact, that it’s sad that
there are not anymore varieties of cars except this one we can reconstruct, I wanted to know if we can sell them once we
reconstructed them… the answer is…-

50. -… nope. We can’t even completely construct them on Community lots, putting on color as the final step can’t be
completed, instead they will continue to exist in this state and can’t be sold on community businesses either… too bad…-
‘Wooo… dude, I’m spraying… and it doesn’t stick… that’s like… magic… duuude!’

51. -… okay, so back to the hospital… with some networking benefits like free high tech object and higher wages…-

52. -… and reaching level 10 as well…-

53. -…. And after some last changes to the hospital including renaming the lot to ‘The Gailezers’, to hide the fact that it is not a
hospital – yet…-

54. –…and a final date…-

55. -…. we return…-
‘Nice trip man… everything was just like – wooooah!’
- You know… I’m not quite sure what you are on… well, probably snapdragon… and while it makes you so far the most…
entertaining person this season, you’re starting to get on my nerves, so please just keep quiet…-
‘… peace, man…’
- Shut up…-

56. -… and as for you others, move out…-

57. -… and Serva R-1, a word with you…-
‘Yes?’
-… You know, your Servofriend…-
‘… Is stoned 24/7, I know… look, this was your idea making him that way, I’m just going along with it because… well, there
aren’t any other Servos around with an appropriate number, so I’m stuck with him… plus, it has some originality to it…’
-… point…-

58. - … oh well, it’s become fall, lets talk next season about it…-

59. -… let me just move the others in…-

60. -… and fast forward the season… done… now on to the last Community lot this chapter…-
Households
= 74+3
= 1
unowned
Community
Lot unlocked

61. -… this time it’s one I placed in Blank Mesa, and it’s: Royceston Hall, again by laivine_erunyauve… it is supposed to be an
university or school building, but for this science hood, I re-interpreted it as a Meeting hall…-

62. -… where Scientists from all around the world can hold congresses in spacious congress rooms etc.…-

63. -… but first of all, we needed to recolor and rename the Hall of course… yeah… I guess that was it again… oh, look,
Population has finally crossed the 12.000 Mark…-
Population:
Playables = 179
Households = 77
Community Lots = 154+5
Business Districts = 7
SM = 1[Starter] + 1[1st Bus.] +
35[7 BD] + 31[159 Bus.] = 68
= 179 x 68 = 12172

64. -… so this was another stoned episode of Instant City – a BaMC Challenge… I guess, this was a stoner episode, because
admittedly only people who are high can read and enjoy this..-
‘groooooovyyyy…. This episode was awesome!’
-… you’re not helping… oh well, one more episode to go, and we’re done… thanks again, if you actually read this, you make
my day…
- Happy Simming !-
