Hello hello! Welcome to the very first chapter of Restoring Marge,
a Messie Messlot challenge! Our intrepid couple undertaking this
challenge consists of Nanki-Poo Shankel and his fiancée Tisha
Sullivan. (Nanki-Poo is the green one.)
Nanki-Poo has promised Tisha a white picket fence, a minivan with
flames on it, and three children (one of each).
This challenge was pretty much tailor-made for Nanki-Poo, who
has ten Neat points.
NANKI-POO: Hey!
PHOENIX, FROM THE WELCOME WAGON: I’m sorry?
NANKI-POO: I wasn’t talking to you. (yells) Hey! Hey hey hey!
Quit that! What do you think you’re doing?!
ALLYN, FROM THE WELCOME WAGON: I’m… picking up
some trash?
NANKI-POO: Well, quit it! That’s my trash! If anyone’s going to
pick it up, it’s going to be me!
ALLYN, FROM THE WELCOME WAGON: I was just trying to
be neighborly…
NANKI-POO: Well, don’t! Just back off! (looks over Allyn’s
shoulder and shouts) HEY!
NANKI-POO: HEY! Those are MY weeds! Get off my property
before I make you get off it!
Did I mention that Nanki-Poo has zero Nice points? He will punch
you over whose turn it is to clean the toilet.
The challenge specifies that you need to do everything up nicely –
not just clean, but refurbished and upgraded. To that end, I got
Nanki-Poo a job in the Military career.
Look, it was the best paying job in the paper, okay? And the hours
were compatible with Tisha’s work.
But then I realized: the military is just about the opposite of rock ‘n’
roll, and Nanki-Poo is all about rock ‘n’ roll.
Nanki-Poo no longer works in the Military career.
The problem, of course, is that I am a very experience simmer.
Added to the fact that Nanki-Poo is a very fast and enthusiastic
cleaner, the challenge rapidly threatened to become no challenge at
all.
So I added some handicaps.
To get the floor to go from this…
…to this…
…Nanki-Poo had to do this.
At first, I just made the handicap to clea up all the puddles after a
rainstorm. But that was too easy, too, since puddles evaporate, so
there is now a twenty-five puddle minimum. If that takes multiple
rainstorms, then that’s what it takes.
Similarly, replacing any landscaping element (such as trees, bushes,
or the completely inaccessible weeds flowers along the side of the
house) requires digging a hole in front of* the offending
landscaping element twice…
*Or 100% around, in the case of trees.
…and then filling the hole in completely.
Nanki-Poo doesn’t mind if Tisha helps dig the holes, but filling
them in? Filling them in counts as cleaning, which means HE gets
to do it.
The final handicap (so far) is for “cleaning” tile walls, such as those
found in the kitchen and bathroom. In order to earn that privilidge,
either Nanki-Poo or Tisha has to paint one entire painting.
Because the arm movements are similar.
Sort of.
If you’ve never actually seen someone clean a wall before.
Oh, shut up.
And that is where we will leave off, I think, with Tisha and Nanki-
Poo enjoying some well-deserved sandwiches.
Which Nanki-Poo will clean up, of course.
Until next time, happy simming!
