Why have I not seen this before? Does anyone use this? Does it work? Should I just try it myself and shut up? Maybe I should just ask myself "WHY".

It does work. I got it right when it came out, and used it on several apartments. I love it, makes the apartments look better.

This is one of my favorite houses in my game.  I love the challenge of having a Sim family with little money gradually turn their crappy house into a beautiful home.  Mostly because I've downloaded so many beautiful things that don't cost much in game, that it's not a real challenge to create a beautiful home on little money anymore.

MTS2's downloads won't be available again til the 12th!

But I can wait.... I love that derelict house.

How creepily ... topical of that lot. According to something I read on either MSN Money or Yahoo, suburbs are going to be the new slums-- with unsold houses gathering weeds, squatters, and people selling their homes quickly to unsavory types. (The gist of it is that its smarter to rent than buy) ANYWAY...

I never know quite how to feel when real life creeps into my game but I think I'll make an exception for aelflaed

I think with the sad state of things right now - we're going to be forced to adopt a more community atmosphere.  Right now, in my neighborhood, no one talks to one another - but it's totally true - we have several foreclosed homes on our block & maybe we could all pitch in and do the yards from time to time.  I don't know - maybe that's why I like poor challenges & the Broke family so much - success stories!!   Smiley

Sims is total escapism for me - in real life, I can't go to work in a helicopter or name my kids Count Chocula & Frankenberry.  heh

Thanks for the note on MTS2! - I'm going to be in a dark corner, slowly rocking back & forth until they come back.

Yeah.  I'm lucky, got some good neighbors.  Like the kid across the street torn between college and rotc, or going straight in to the service, and his family who are broncos fans, even though we live in atlanta.

And the neighborhood is well kept up too.

Oh, man. I've been hearing of special neighborhood watches and communities banding together to keep an eye out for squatters on eachother's homes as well as doing a bit of yard work here and there. People who stain that astro turf stuff for athletic fields are working overtime to keep lawns green and make it look more lived in. Its not happening everywhere and not right away but its happening. At least the banding together is a positive.

HA! What are you, a New Zealander? My most daring name was "Erinyes" (a last name)

What? I like re-enacting mythological tales and folklore as best I can in the sim world. *cough* Sans incest*/cough* How's that for escapism?

Hee - I'm not as creative with the escapism as all that.  I have been doing an experiment lately though - speaking of incest (ick) - how far removed do Sim cousins need to be before they can hook up?  I know - warped, but I've always been curious...  I might have one giant infertile neighborhood soon...

I got on a kick of naming kids after breakfast cereals.  After Snap, Crackle, & Pop, things had to get a little more adventurous.  Honey Smacks?  Kinda sounds inappropriate.

By the way - I've had "I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS" stuck in my head since your post.   Grin

ooh. Cereal names. How about:
Quisp, Cerbi, Alphabits, Total, Cheerios, Shreddies, Ezekiel, GoLean,  Chex, Trix, Kix, Vive, and what the hey, HeartyMorning

I mostly play with house and decorating. I have no clue about the cousin thing. Do I want to know? It'd take forever to find out,so I wouldn't be surprised if the creators were like "meh" and had the sims forget they're related after a certain point.

But such talk is merely guessing. Will someone test that out for us? (resists making Bluth joke)

Derelict - Zoolander

Love the cereals - esp. Shreddies.  Hmmmm - sounds like he might be kind of violent.  I like it.  hehe  That's my problem too - I like building & decorating more than the patience of growing generations of Sims.  I'll let you know if I find out through play about the cousins thing - but it might be around 2011. 

Oh, and Soggyfox - I love that you know your neighbors so well.  That's really sweet.   Smiley

I'm also a builder. I play on a Mac so it can only take so many character files before it starts freakin' out, anyway. I also almost went to school for interior design (before switching to advertising), so I've always had a soft spot for it.

As a skitsophrenic(sp?), bipolar gemini with OCD, I have explored every possible way to play the game. I have all the EPs, so I have tons of sims with extensive life histories and generations of business owners, college graduates, farmers, home owners and renters. They live in elaborate neighborhoods with a variety of architectural styles. I'm a total control freak when it comes to my sims though, so most of them have no free will or motive/aspiration decay. I'm sort of a dictator god when I play, but I do take good care of my sims, always keeping them green and happy. Townies are the exception, I love torturing them.
I will spend days building a house and days decorating it. I love the architectural and interior design aspects of the game. I used to build very detailed houses out of legos when I was a kid. I also made and played with paperdolls a lot, hence my name. The Sims allows me the same enjoyment, but with way better graphics. Grin
I love the game, even if I'm not crazy about the politics behind it.

I think I'll try that cousins thing to see how far it goes. My kind of challenge. I'll let you all know how it turns out.

If you DON'T HAVE ANY MOTIVE DECAY, then your sims don't need to *DO* anything! Of course they're happy. Also, you SUCK as a player.

Perhaps, but I do sometimes let the motive decay stay on in order to explore certain aspects that require it. The reason I keep it off a lot of the time is so I can have them do what I want without them having to got to the bathroom or go to sleep. Sometimes I just want to see what will happen in certain situations.
It's just the way I play. It's not for everyone. My mother plays also. She just builds houses and creates the sims, but she doesn't play them. I always play mine, so our style of play is quite different. That versatility is a big part of what I like about the game.

To each his own. You play your way and I'll play mine.  Grin
