2. Welcome back to the New Willow Bay. My work week is over as of midnight therefore I’ve had a bit of time to play my
game (well, I got a hour and a half in earlier this week, but don’t tell the non-readers). I’m up late because I need to
head downtown this morning… like, my real downtown. I haven’t unlocked downtown in the game.
Julian: What’s he doing?
Jihoon: Man, he just sounds like he’s pulling an all-nighter.
3. Julian: You should get some sleep.
Be quiet, my digital child.
~~
Okay, this photo is iconic. The angles, the facial expression. Pure gold.
4. Rex: And that’s why you should always wear a hat if you go bald.
Good thing we aren’t going bald.
5. Welp, my simself manages to screw things up for the first time ever.
Rex: You screwed up a chance card. You made the choice.
I distinctly remember I hit the enter button as if I were playing an apocalypse. At least slacker has a position open again.
6. A nice happy family meal time.
Julian: You look old, dad.
Rex: You must be talking about Jihoon, right?
Jihoon: Well…
7. Goddamnit. Of course I grew up into ugly clothes.
And surrounded by carbs, no less.
8. Julian: I feel bad for cheating so blatantly.
Prometheus: These pieces would make for a lovely kindling.
Julian: Screw it, I don’t feel bad messing with the weird kid.
9. Julian grows up into a fortune/family sim and rolls the want to be the head of the SCIA. Since intelligence requires at
least one of military, criminal, or science to be topped for a position to be unlocked, I think we’ll be good once this one
gets through university.
But those clothes…
10. I quickly realize I don’t have much in the way of CC for teen boys which is sad. I mean, I have separates, but not much for
full body. I should go on a download spree.
11. I use Julian as a pawn to buy clothes for my simself because I don’t want to clog up the lot.
Julian: Laziest thing you’ve done all day.
Correction- the laziest thing I did was look up the intelligence career rules by laptop rather than grab my print-out on my
dresser.
12. Julian rolls a want for a first kiss and I figure I can use Sophie Miguel as want-fodder.
Although she looks suspiciously like Jihoon.
13. The two of them go steady and, at night, winter switches over to spring. Fairly boring update in the Sim household.
14. The Deppiesse family, however, brought on the major update this round. You’ll see what I mean.
15. Abhijeet: Are you sure you want me to fix this with only 4 mechanical points.
Well, your son is too young to fix it and you’re all rolling wants to play it.
Abhijeet: We have enough money to buy a new one.
Fix the damn synthesizer!
16. Nope, Abhijeet didn’t electrocute himself. But Kyle did grow up into a teenager. He is a family/knowledge sim who wants
to marry off 6 kids. He’s also maxed out all but the charisma skill so far.
17. Here’s where they bring the update. Kyle is now old enough to work at Klub Ing meaning the Deppiesse family can start
raking in more cash for another** university.
**I won’t actually build the university so the game doesn’t overload, but it will be there in theory.
18. Abhijeet isn’t the only one who can pull at the club. Kyle makes his moves on Ivy Copur.
19. And much like Julian & Sophie, Kyle & Ivy start going steady.
My screenshot tool on my laptop continues to fail me, but I upped the hourly fee for the club to $9999 so the Deppiesse
family now has over $2,000,000. That all got donated to “build” two new colleges, or at the very least upgrade Boolprop
College.
20. The round ended with Kyle maxing out charisma and then stargazing to potentially get abducted by aliens for the
scholarships.
