Hello! And welcome back to my Board Game challenge! We start things off with an almost dead Austin for some reason.
No idea what happened. I just loaded up and he’s blue.
He’s probably butt-hurt because he’s not heir.
That’s right! Our boy Dean is heir! And it was a landslide too!
Here’s how the voting broke down!
| Blog Votes | BoolProp Votes | Total Votes | |
| Dean | 10 | 6 | 16 |
| Austin | 0 | 1 | 1 |
And to kick of Dean’s reign, we start with a birthday!
And we’re ready to go!
But before that:
We have $4,658 on hand at the moment. And one of the goals for Dean’s generation is to have triple that amount before his kids take over. (because this generation’s theme is Scrabble and this is our version of a triple word score!)
So before gen 3 takes over, we need to have $13,974 on hand.
Seems deceptively easy…
We also need to move for this generation. And since this generations theme color is light blue, we’re moving into a blue suburban in San Sequoia!
…Also, we’re already at our triple word score…
But it’s not a very nicely decorated house. I wanted to be able to be able to afford it right away lol
So welcome to our new home!
It’s a modified version of lilsimsie’s started lot in San Sequoia.
And here’s the house after some modifications.
Also, since I took the time to decorate after moving in, we’re now back down to $4,450 simoleons. So we definitely have some work to do to hit our triple word score now! Just the way I like it!
…Also also, here’s hoping that I can afford our bills tomorrow lol
Back to gameplay, we have a bit of a problem… We have too many dogs.
I know, I know, you can’t have too many dogs! But in the confines of the Sims… We just don’t have room for them and gen 3.
But also Asparagus and Prosciutto are almost elders, and I would like to move Austin out with Chive when he ages up on Saturday. And Kiyoshi and Gert are going to die soon as well…
I will be keeping Ranch as long as I want though, because I love that dog and this is a Ranch let’s play now.
ANYWAYS
My heartfire is telling me to up the household size for a sec and just play on. Since this is the only chapter where it’s going to be an issue lol
So I invited Luna over since we decided to up the household size and this is when I discovered that our lovely new neighborhood has the “We Wear Bags” NAP lol
Well we got rid of the Bag NAP and we aged Luna up right away!
Which means we can now woo her with out it being weird!
Awe that’s cute!
Of course Dean likes affection!
Hey! She gave us a rose! I thought that was our job!
WHO DID THIS!?
I bet it was Ranch
Dudes. You have beds
I got Luna all moved in!
And we kicked the wooing into high gear!
And boom! We’re engaged!
Another boom and we’re married!
I’VE ASSIGNED YOU BEDS AND THIS IS NOT IT! THIS IS YOUR PARENT’S BED!
WHYYYYYY!?
Heyo! Baby incoming!
GERT! WHY ARE YOU NAKED!?
omg
No! Not my Ranch!
I forgot to get Luna and Dean jobs, so we did that. We’ll need money if we’re going to be able to triple our money before the end of the generation!
Luna joined the Social Media career and Dean is an engineer
And since Dean needs to get 3 skills to level nine just by reading, we got started on that right away
Gert got a promotion! That’s fun!
San Sequoia is really pretty in fall
Oh my god… It’s a literal dog fight…
WHY!?
…And you’ll never guess who one of the perpetrators are…
Goddamnit Ranch
The other one is Prosciutto. Goodness.
AND NOW PROSCIUTTO IS RUNNING AWAY!
RANCH WHAT DID YOU DO!?
oh. That was quick… lol
She came back a mess though…
Just a Ranch in his natural habitat
Hey! Luna got a promotion on her first day!
That… is QUIET the look…
RANCH! PLEASE!
We’re supposed to be making money! This is the opposite!
…We now have less then 1000 simoleons…
So Kiyoshi was asked to join the Garden Gnomes (which we had to say yes to because of our philosophy) and now we have to go to a gathering!
nooooooo
I was having Dean read his skill books!
So we went and the rest of the club IMMEDIATELY RAN OFF IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION
They ran off to fish together while we were tending a garden.
Rude
We didn’t stay long lol
I forgot it was Spooky day, so I had a little freakout because of this lol
So we got the family in costume! I had a blast!
EWWWW! KIYOSHI NO! YOU CAN’T FLIRT WITH YOUR SON’S WIFE!
Great. Now Dean is jealous
And now it’s baby time.
Kiyoshi really has the WORST timing
It’s a girl! Welcome to the family, Elle!
(get it? Like the letter L because this is the scrabble generation?)
Oh… We have the Power Conservation NAP.
…Fun
Well, since I’ve already increased the household size, we might as well!
Woo! Nooboo!
Asparagus is an elder doggo now!
Oh this is an interesting fame card! I’ve never seen this before!
Give me a celebrity enemy! YES
Woo! Enemies! How exciting!
Anyone else use under roof spaces as attic “crawl spaces” for storage items? With a pet door for “access”?
Just me?
Cool
AH! NOOOOOOO
Luna got another promotion!
I DIDN’T THINK THE WORK OUTFIT COULD GET WORSE BUT THE GAME HAD OTHER IDEAS
OMG
…This is HIGHLY inappropriate!
Dean also got a promotion!
He’s still got a normal work uniform. No need for the fashion police
AWE! HEAD TILT!
You are required to say “awe” when dogs do the head tilt. It’s the law
Elle aged up! Look at that little cutie!
It’s also Austin’s birthday!
And so we moved him out! And he took Chive with him! Woo!
Aaaaaaand, if you want to keep up with him and his adventures, you can find him in my MySims legacy challenge! He’s moved to a new challenge family!
Procuitto is now an elder dog! So many elders in our family at the moment…
……Okay, now there’s one less elder in our house
…Grim never showed up for Kiyoshi! He just poofed into an urn.
How rude
With an infant and another baby on the way, we had Gert retire from her job. Kiyoshi was watching the kids while everyone was at work. And now that he’s gone… We needed someone else to fill that role and Gert was happy to sign up!
Elle is so cute! Even after having a blowout all over Luna lol
*SQUEEEEEEEE*
BABY TIME!
TWINS?!
*dies*
…This is the dangers of having an increased household limit…
So… everyone meet Jay (boy) and Kay (girl)
OH MY GOD THAT IS SO CUTE!
So I’m currently switching us to a Monday – Monday rotation schedule and that means we have bills for the second time in this chapter… But we can’t afford these…
MY BABYSITTER!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GERT!
I miss you already!
Hey! Grim actually came this time!
Ranch and Asparagus are guarding Elle from the scary person at the door.
Because yes, Clara is scary
End of the rotation comes around (Dean’s still at work) and the family is doing their individual things!
Join us next time… when we have 3 infants…
Oh god…
