2. Welcome back to Skull Valley. As it stands, I have two playable families that make up the burgeoning city. The Morris family is in
the clunky house on the left and the Stratton family in the nice, pre-made, ModtheSims lot on the right.
3. Jihoon: “So what do you think our future is gonna be like, man? Cause I was thinking we should have some kids.”
Fortunately for Charlotte and Jihoon, they’re already pregnant.
Jihoon: “Groovy.”
4. *pop*
Charlotte: “Oh no, I dropped the pinball… Stupid baby. Why do I even need to have kids when I can just move more townies in?”
Because I still have to play you guys. And this is an ACR baby- don’t act like you and Jihoon didn’t want it.
5. Charlotte: “*snores*”
Get up, you have work.
Charlotte: “But I’m on maternity leave; there’s no carpool.”
As long as you can walk to work, you’re going. I need every promotion I can get to make you perma-plat.
6. Jihoon: “Oh man, man. I’m gonna be a dad soon. What kind of dad doesn’t even have a job? My kid is gonna need to be, like, a
role model.”
Calm down. I have a plan for you.
7. Jihoon: “Is it playing pinball, cause I’m, like, really good at that.”
No. You’ll see in time.
8. Jeez. Jihoon, I promise you’ll have something to do. Just wait until the pregnancy is over.
9. In the meantime, prep the garden for whoever is going to be using it.
10. Charlotte: “Stupid computer. Keeps sparking all the time.”
Please don’t kill yourself before giving birth. Or after it. I kind of need you, Charlotte.
11. Welcome the first baby of Skull Valley- Victor Morris. Victor has his dad’s hair and eyes.
12. Charlotte: “You couldn’t find a white frame for his crib.”
Hey, I only put in my old downloads folder into my documents section. How was I supposed to remember the CC I missed out
on? Count yourself lucky that you have nice maxis match hair, at least.
13. Guess who’s time it is to shine?
Jihoon: “Hey real estate, man. I would like to purchase that fancy new lot in town. Mhm… yeah, I can shell out my wife’s money
for it.”
14. Welcome to Hang 10! Like literally every Build a City Challenge, this place is the overcharged “club” that will unlock the first
position in the Slacker career. At $999 an hour, it’s bound to score some major perks for Skull Valley.
15. Jan: “This seems expensive.”
Jihoon: “Don’t be a hater, man. This will totally help us build a university for our kids. Think of it as, like, an investment. A warm,
bubbly investment.”
16. This method is also the easiest way to score business stars. Truly the most innovative thing the BaCC community ever came up
with.
17. It also is a good way to keep the witches from destroying the lot.
I also need to find a way to default replace that evil witch skintone. It really pisses me off.
18. The good witches I can stand, but the evil witches really do screw up the game. Tell me why I installed Apartment Life again?
19. Jihoon: “I hate to be, like, a bummer, but some of you have five stars so you need to leave. I gotta have some new clients in the
hot tubs to go up a level.”
20. Jihoon: “Everybody needs to get out, man. I’ve gotta go home and see my wife and kid.”
So after a week of playing at the lot, it has finished at level 8 and the Morris family is $700,000 richer.
21. Jihoon: “I’m so sorry for being gone all week, man. I thought of you every time I saw one of those old townies in a bikini.”
Charlotte: “You were gone? I didn’t feel time go by at all.”
22. Jihoon: “I hope you’re proud, little dude. Daddy is gonna make it so you can get a degree. And a clean diaper.”
24. Well that will alleviate some boredom.
Charlotte: “Can I please use my maternity leave this time? I’m almost at the top of this career.”
No. We need all the money possible for this challenge.
25. Charlotte: “Jihoon, can you please pay attention to your son’s birthday?”
Jihoon: “Man, hold on just a second. I’m reading this book on parenting. It’s groovy.”
26. As much as I like the hairstyle, it didn’t really suit Victor. It’s more of a teen style, honestly.
27. Jihoon: “See, the secret that book taught me is that we have to use aspiration rewards to totally maximize our little man’s
development. If we want him to succeed early, we have to use this radioactive milk.”
Charlotte: “I guess… isn’t that a little bit ‘2004’ of us, though?”
Hey, it’s an old game. All the secrets to making the most of their little lives is already out. All you can hope for is that someone
out there is still storing old custom content.
29. Charlotte: “Honey, can you hold him for a second?”
And finally a different kind of baby. Still a boy, but with red hair. Meet Michael Morris. Even the TV sim is surprised.
30. Charlotte becomes the first sim to reach her lifetime want in Skull Valley. It’s very likely she will be the only sim to do so, for a
while.
Charlotte: “Is it because I’m the founder?”
Possibly. It’s also because I made a Libra personality for you that mean you were a lazy slob so you’d have an easy LTW. But now
you want to be a Cult Leader.
Charlotte: “Am I not one already?”
31. Charlotte: “Can you say bottle?”
Victor: “…”
Charlotte: “Oh crap, we really need that SmartMilk for you, don’t we?”
32. Nothing like a toddler who can maximize both charisma and mechanical before he reaches childhood.
33. Welp, if they have more babies, I can’t stay mad. I need that population to soar.
35. Marcus on the left, and Michael on the right. Honestly, I don’t hate either of their hair choices.
36. And that is the end of Week 2 for the Morris family. Current stats:

Funds toward university: $700,000/$1,000,000
