Oh, snazzy snazzy pants! Good luck to everybody. <3

Lathrine 06-07-2010 11:14 PM

I actually have everything decided now, I'm just being a wuss about posting the results. :B The judging of my last contest went over less-than-well with a friend who'd entered, so I'm wiffling about it while working up the courage. *fails as a judge*

Iltu 06-07-2010 11:19 PM

What was the last contest? *memory of a goldfish*
Well, when you post results, if people are bums about it, I'll play bouncer and be like, "Y'ALL NEED TO TAKE SOME CHILL PILLS OR GTFO. :talk2hand:" I got cho back, girlie! ;D

Also, I am dying of laughter at Silver's entry. XD

Lathrine 06-07-2010 11:27 PM

That would be the one for my wolf OCs when back when. :drool: I had a friend on dA turn around and whine/be emo in a journal when she didn't end up in first place. That really did do good things for my self esteem as a judge.
Aww, why thankchoo! ;D I bet we could get Nami to lend you her hammer, even.

okay, no more whiffling. i'll post it already.

WINNERS HAVE BEEN DECIDED!

After a lot of wiffling and "I dun wanna choose!" and "Nyeeeh", I have come to a conclusion on the winners of Menewshan Simmers: Build-a-Phoenix Jubilee.

First Place goes to Silver Magi for her amazingly detailed Menewsha Plaza and Pavillion PJ lot. I'm over here wishing that I could be as thorough and epic with my lots. :illgetu:

Both Sensible Cricket's The Phoenix Jubilee and Kaema's Phoenix Jubilee Airship tied for second place! And I can't come up with anything to say since I've over used my "Awesome" quota for the year!

Trades have been sent with your prizes even before you finish reading this. Because I'm that aw
Placing the lots you three made was hellish, congratulations to all of you. C: Hopefully I'll see you guys around here and at the next contest, when ever that may be. ;D

Sensible Cricket 06-07-2010 11:41 PM

Yaaay, thank you! It was really fun making this, and I'm really glad you had that idea. :3 I'll probably be in and out, but....I'm a TS1 geek, dammit!

Lathrine 06-07-2010 11:44 PM

Quite welcome! <3 Glad you had fun, since that was the whole point. :'D You're more than welcome to hang around here if you'd like to.

Iltu 06-07-2010 11:48 PM

Heeeey, that wolf contest was like, how we became friends! 'Cause I was like, 'oh this girl faved me I'll go check out her page, oh cool characters and contest allow me to stick around!"
Apppppffhaha, seriously? NOT COOL. :talk2hand:
Hey, I bet she would totally let us! 8D

Grats, you three!

Lathrine 06-07-2010 11:51 PM

Inorite? I love it for that reason. ;D
I'm not entirely sure she meant to 'cause she has some serious self esteem problems and angst's about everything (and has for three years), BUT STILL. D:
QUICK GO ASK HER! 8D

Iltu 06-07-2010 11:57 PM

Ah, well, I see. I understand that she'd be upset, but no need to like, drag others down with you. D8 Po' Lathy-kins. *snugs*
...She says my weak little arms won't be able to lift it, but she'll be backup if words don't make people lay off. 8D

Lathrine 06-08-2010 12:02 AM

Woo! Both Rommy AND Nami for bouncers! 8D This thread is awesome like that. ;D

Iltu 06-08-2010 12:08 AM

Yeah! Now I gotta track down a cool bouncer theme song.

Also, god I have not played Sims in forever. D8 I need to work on Nimue and Charles and Maurice. They were such a fun family to play with.

Lathrine 06-08-2010 12:17 AM

I still have close to a hobillion families to house in Sims. D: Plus Camelot to build, plus Simnewsha, plus my Legacy. And I'm thinking of making a gold digger sim just for kicks. I have enough stuff to do it's scaring me away from starting it up! XD

I wish to see screenies of this family sometime! C:

Kaema 06-08-2010 12:24 AM

Thanks so much Lathrine! :)
Contests are lots of fun. :lol: I can't wait til the next one!

Iltu 06-08-2010 12:33 AM

Gold digger sims are fun. XD Sherry Merlot sim causes so much drama, running around with rich old guys.
I just mess around in Sims, I try not to give myself too many projects! XD

Sure thing! ...Tomorrow, seeing as they are on my ma's computer. :gonk: THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS.
Also, hey, they're the three in the second RP! 8D *just realized on account of being slow* Maurice being the dalmatian, of course. Named for the character in Beauty and the Beast. ...Seeing as Charles' favorite movies are Beauty and the Beast and 101 Dalmatians. He SAYS his dog is named after the novel by E.M. Forester and that his favorite movie is some obscure foreign film that won an international indie film festival but he lies. :roll:

...Man I wish that was all communicable through Sims. XD

Lathrine 06-08-2010 12:35 AM

I have waaaaay too much fun with Sims projects, so I plan a hobillion things. D: And then never finish them.
Oh man, it'd be awesome if you could find a way to communicate all of that through Sims. XD

Kaema; No prob! :D

Iltu 06-08-2010 12:40 AM

I just make my characters and sometimes characters from fandoms (SIRIUS BLACK SIM) and run with it. :B
...I actually just made myself, my friend, and our gag husbands. Only I forgot to make me and my gag husband married. And they don't seem to like one another much, turn-ons aside...

Lathrine 06-08-2010 01:08 AM

I have a crap ton of characters from fandoms now. I feel sorry for them when ever they come in contact with my characters or just random sims I've made. xD "Oh hey Yami some neighbors from a few blocks up came to greet us, go say hi!" "'K. Ohai thar, thanks for visitiiiiIIIII HOLY **** BAKURA THIS GUY'S A FREAKING ALIEN GO'AULD THING AND THIS OTHER GUY HAS DRAGON WINGS HOLY **** WE'RE SCREWED QUICK RUN AWAY AUGH WHY CAN'T I LEAVE THIS LOT."

Oh dear, dontcha just hate it when that happens? :<
... Mehra and I made ourselves and most of the Organization in Sims. :> My sim was best buds with Xion, where as her sim and Vexen hit it off. wetotallymadexalmarcannoninthatlot. thenmademarlyrunoffwithxaldy. itwasepic.

Silver Magi 06-08-2010 01:22 AM

Yaaaay, that contest was so much fun. >w<

Thanks for hosting, Lath~ :D

I'll be sure to stick around for the long run. <3

Also, speaking of legacies, I finally started one on TS3 that I've stuck to so far. I may have screenshots later, but the compressed story of Ilse Arbour iiiiiis~

Ilse went to France, fell in love with Gerard Montaque. He broke up with the mother of his son, PISSING HER OFF AND MAKING HER WANT TO FRICKIN' KILL ME. D;
( He said he was single. Not my fault. c: )

ANYWAYS.
Ilse went back to Riverview, pregnant, and eventually had twin girls. Elena and Bridget. Elena and her sister are now children, almost teens, and they're turning into complete opposites of each other, but the family is extremely close-knit, except for Gerard, whom they plan on visiting later on in their childhood. (Along with their half brother.)

(I didn't mean to explain for this long, but oh well. :gonk:)

Bridget is a natural musician, and I plan on making her the Indie chick with a penchant for cooking, just like her mother/father. Elena is a little neurotic, but her intellect is making her a logical prodigy. c:

Ilse is almost an elder, and she misses Gerard, but she'll tag along with the girls to visit her (still) true love. (Actually, she ages right after the girls do.)

Also, Ilse has a friend's ghost hanging around the house, which is nice, since she can look after the kids while Ilse goes to work downtown, as a Level 10 chef.

Aaaagh, legacies are so much fun to write stories about, I've re-discovered. :gonk:

Hopefully I can keep this going on, until I get the new ex-pak for TS3. Then I might start one in the New Orleans'esque town. I love the swampy terrain.


Aaaand, I lol'd at the gold-digger sim, Iltu. :lol:

Iltu 06-08-2010 03:08 AM

Lathy- Haha, fun times. :'D Man, CC must be such fun to have! <3 Some day... some day... With my own lappy and an external harddrive... In the mean time, your stories and screenies make my day! Share them anytime!

Yeah, it's like, "Skank, I will NOT catch you when you try to jump into my arms! :talk2hand:"
"Well then I'm not letting you kiss me, you filthy whore man! :talk2hand:"
And then not sim me is like, "This is ridiculous! The two of you, Kristi, and Swedish Boy will NEVER be able to get together to play board games at this rate! :gonk:"
Oh, fun! :'D Me though, I'd make XalLar cannon. *fail*

Silver- That sounds like a blast! And all your sims have really cool names. You make me want TS3... :gonk:

Haha, she's a fun sim to mess around with. :lol:

Lathrine 06-08-2010 02:22 PM

Rommy; It bogs down your computer like hell, but CC is soooo much fun! :drool: Here's a fun screenies for you, since you asked. c: (I was gonna share anyways, but still.)
Nyron doesn't seem to care that his father passed out during dinner.
Dinner and games at the Devil house... just another ordinary day for Link.
Artemis tries to impress the wonders of being a host on Yami, who I don't think is very impressed.
Link and the girl demon whom I can't remember go to school together. And Link fancies her, whereas she's all "GTFO plz :talk2hand:" when a relationship with him is brought up. :B And she's probably gonna be a prostitute/skank in the future, since she takes after her father and is a Romantic sim. (most of their family is romantic sims. there is going to be some interesting goings-on later, methinks.)

Silver; Oooh, fun fun! :D I'm in the process of rewriting my Legacy story from the view of the patriarch. Who's a grand vampire with a bite addiction.

Silver Magi 06-08-2010 06:11 PM

/Drools over your winged sims :drool:

I tried to play around with mods on TS2, but I just left it at furniture and stuff. D:

And thanks guys~ I hope I can keep this legacy going on, unless the twins drive Ilse insane. :gonk:

Through the earlier years, I think she might have gotten like, 2 hours of sleep per night. Tops. AFTER working. xD

And the babysitter was awful. D:
He'd feed them and look after them when Ilse was gone, but then when she came back from work, he'd be all
'OHAY, YOUR TURN TO LOOK AFTER THEM. NEED MAH MUNNY KTHXBAI.'
Which left my nearly asleep Ilse with two crying toddlers. OTL

I feel so lost, reading through the fandom sims and everything, but hot damn. I'm amused and laughing. :gonk: <3

@ Lath - Oooh~ Vampire sims are so much fun. D:
I kind of miss my vamp from TS2. But she got deleted. :c

@ Iltu - Get eeeeeeet. :'D

Lathrine 06-08-2010 06:21 PM

I'm trying to find an excuse to put wings on every single sim. :drool: "OH EM GEE YOU NEED WINGS" "... But I'm a modern sim who works in an office! D:" "YOU. NEED. WINGS."

Oh... oh gosh. D: I've had a few bad babysitters- including one that refused to leave even after I fired her- but I think that's by far the worst one I've heard of.

Awww! :c Well, hopefully TS3 will get an xpack with Vamps so you can have one again. c:
... Awwww! :heart: >w< Elena is so adorable!

Silver Magi 06-08-2010 06:25 PM

xDDD

'YOU CAN FLY OUT THE 21st FLOOR WINDOW NOW. TRY IT., TRY IT. TRY IT.'
'But.. I'm on the 2nd floor..'
"TRY IT ANYWAYS.' -Push-
'SEE, AREN'T YOU GLAD YOU HAVE WINGS?'
-Dead sim on the sidewalk-

I think that's the worst babysitter I've had. Since he leaves right as I pull up to the house.
The one I had a while ago would cook dinner beforehand. xD

And thank you~! <3
She's a replica of her father basically. xD
I'll have to take pictures of her and him together. Well, and Bridget too, but Elena also has his eyes.
Bridget takes after Ilse, eye-wise. xDD;

Lathrine 06-08-2010 06:46 PM

EXACTLY. That is exactly how it would happen.

He's just a jerk of a babysitter is all. Probably leaving so fast in case you want him to work later. Oh, lucky. xD I wish any of my babysitters would cook dinner.

Yes, yes you do have to. :'D

Count Remington doing what he does best (at least when I don't make him do all the cleaning.)

Silver Magi 06-08-2010 07:09 PM

xDD
I had one babysitter cook dinner, but all my others were like 'Okay, make me a sammich, NOW.'

D'aw, painting sims = <3

Also. I went to France with the girls, and Gerard married his bitchy girlfriend, the one that hates Ilse's guts because she has children with Gerard. D;

And Gerard aged. He's still handsome, but now his daughters and lover barely even know anything about him.
He's changed so much. :c
They're getting to meet their half-brother, though. c:
