The Sims Life & Times

The Sims, as anyone who plays can attest, takes on a life of its own. I created this blog so I could keep track of my sim stories and share them with others. I've always wanted to write stories but unfortunately I'm not very good at it lol I am hoping that just as my house building has improved so will my storytelling abilities.

My main family is called the Snookers. My goal was to move 1 sim into Relfamtown and see how the population would grow. I hope you will follow along with me.
If you would like to see all the stories in the Relfamtown series then click on Snooker Chronicles to the left and start at the bottom of the list.

UPDATE - Well since I had a major meltdown and lost Relfamtown, the Snookers are now in Sim Heaven and there will not be anymore updates on them :-( Out of the bad comes good though and Tesime is a new neighbourhood that I created for the Test of Time challenge. I hope you will enjoy their stories as well !

Money Money Money : Round 10

Simoleans at a glance:

Round 10                         Cash on Hand                       House Value

Skin 1:
Stonegate                           § 61,485                             § 73,159
Lindt                                   §166,952                            §202,601

Skin 2/4:

Skin 4:

Benet                                  §139,737                            §163,222

Having the male child stay on the original lot has really taken the toll on the Stonegate's.  At least their relations are well tied to the Lindt's from all their daughters so hopefully that will result in a higher class in the Roman era.

Money Money Money : Round 9

Simoleans at a glance:

Round 9                         Cash on Hand                       House Value

Skin 1:
Stonegate                          § 57,091                             § 68,521
Lindt                                  §129,330                            §164,312

Skin 2/4:

Skin 4:

Benet                                 § 95,803                             §117,906

Well look at that. The Lindt solid lead has shrunk with the Phan's closing the gap nicely !  So far the number of boys has been quite a bit higher than the girls so I am hoping that will even out as it plays along.

PS - I forgot to do this post at the end of the last round so here it is

Money Money Money : Round 8

Simoleans at a glance:

Round 8                         Cash on Hand                       House Value

Skin 1:
Stonegate                          §26,095                              § 37,405
Lindt                                  §98,195                              §128,651

Skin 2/4:

Skin 4:
Gallant                               §61,804                             §81,400
Benet                                 §58,990                             §78,683

The Lindt's have a solid lead which unless they all die ( hey it has happened in other players games ! ) I am thinking they will be the emperor family.  Pity that the Stonegate's have been plagued with such tragedy - first they have 4 girls which obviously will not add much to the family pot, then one of the 2 boys dies in a childhood fire and the only other son is left to live on the family farm thus missing out on that bonus other boys received for starting their own lot. I had a lot of fun playing this round. It seemed to go so fast which I really enjoyed and generation 3 has started with more sims to come in the next round !

Money Money Money : Round 7

Simoleans at a glance:

Round 7                         Cash on Hand                        House Value

Skin 1:
Stonegate                         §20,142                                §31,532
Lindt                                 §64,878                                §93,400

Benet                                §42,736                                §61,678

So far all my sims have stayed within their skin types.  As we go along I'm sure that will become more mixed.  I have calculated the money based on family name + combined family name. ie - BenetGallant new lot is counted under the Benet family fortune. The Lindt's are way out in front because 2 of their sons have already started their own families.  I still haven't decided how to determine the heirs yet though. The rules state oldest child but I decided to move them out to start their own lot to speed the game up so it will have to be one of the younger ones. Also this means that the starter sims will be elders on the family lot and can then help care for any new grandkids that come along.  How have you picked your heirs?
