I managed my first accidental death by kite. I figured if I waited long enough it would happen. I have a nice collection of "evil kites" laying around. Sims will pick them up and use them when your not watching. I didn't see the sim playing with the kite. I saw the big flash of light and started looking for the sim.


This is the first shot I got of the sim. The lightning caused the sim to stand in a square of fire. The sim just stands there stomping in a real agony sort of way. Notice the green plumb bob in the pic.
Here is the sim after a while of agony. Her dd came to watch but didn't offer any help.
The sim died and grim came. All the excitement has caused the sims daughter to want to go to sleep.
A servo came and pled for the sims life. He had to guess the hand that had the correct glowing blue ball. Servo won and the sim is still in play.

Here is one of my newest remodeled houses. The house started out as a white castle theme. Some of you may recognize the other style. I used yellow to give it its very own look from the neighborhood area.




A night time view.

The male sim had a relationship ready for a first kiss. This relationship inspired the tower. I thought it would be a fairy tale place for a sim to have their first kiss. If you look close at the first picture, you can see them standing on the tower balcony.
Then he asked her to marry him. She said yes. The female is a romance sim. This should prove to be an interesting marriage.
The layout of the lot is very basic. This is the view of the balcony level. You can see the sims frozen in the corner.
One down from the highest floor. There is a bathroom with magic steps to the other floors.
One down from that. Another bathroom and empty room used for storage. Can you find the orb? I just may use that on the romance sim.
This is the bottom floor. It has one bedroom large enough for a double bed. A study that can easily be changed to a nursery when needed. As is, it sleeps 6 sims. Two in the bedroom and 4 in the livingroom. I love recliners. They are one of the best budge items for sims with little cash. Place them in the living room near the kitchen. The sim will eat, sleep, and study in the chairs. Another plus, your sims don't have to make the bed when the finish napping.

Here are three shots of move in money my sims got from a legal move. Each sim can move once per age and can only move in by "ask to move in". Merge from family bin isn't allowed except after uni. A good rule early in the challenge when a sim would get 20K from the family bin and less with "ask to move in". Later in the game, a sim could get a much larger amount than 20k resulting in a BIG POINT advantage.

The above moves were a result of moving an elder sims to the retirement house. The move is based on the way I play out my elders. It wasn't to take advantage of something that may not have been considered or thought of when the rule was made.

This realization inspired the vote on a change regarding how sims should be allowed to move around in the neighborhood.
