Round 2 - Banks

[deedee_sims]

Fire? W-w-what fire? Fire, like from a job, or fire like FIRE? ROS, you're givin' me headache! D:



I decided it's from job, so Cornelia sold the beautiful pet store, just when I found a perfect name! *soft cry*



But with that money received, Gaston could start his bookstore, the Book Nook!



I love these shop windows :3



Shop area



Inevitable ivy!



A kinda unuseful but nice reading area upstairs







Kiefer, the reporter guy already? Gaston just opened the business!



And he was so impressed that he left without a single word. Why are you doing this always?





Alice by kahlena wasn't that impressed XD



Wrong way, Jared Woods!



Meanwhile Cornelia enjoyed her pregnancy :P



And chatted with the creepiest townie, Tyler until...



...she went into labor!





Yay, twins! Gerald and Rachel (of course, Gerald was the pink dressed one)



Of course, they didn't have enough money to build a proper nursery. You know, money makes the world go round...



I changed Gerald's dress to a more unisex color



Okay, that fear is kinda easy to fulfill



There you go



Well, that's more interesting :D



Gaston started working on his first novel!



Next day, Wilbur Masterson was interested in some romance novels



And Jared finally found the books and bought some



The very preggy Piper Masterson also wanted some romance



They look so miserable XD



Cornelia enjoyed Sims 3 which I usually don't



And there was the twins' birthday already!





Aww, look how cute they are! :3

Gerald: Gemini
Traits: Slob (Gaston) - Color Blind (Cornelia)

Rachel: Libra
Traits: Slob (Gaston) - Cat Lover (Cornelia)



I swear Rachel looks like me at this age. Or maybe it's just the hair XD



It was time to meet the aliens!



Usual morning









Cry, cry baby!



Smart milk time!



Family activities



Holy Plumbbob, why do I have so many kids?





Oops...



I think, I earned some bonus points (despite I'm not counting any points)



Still cute :3



Morning cuddle...



...and morning WooHoo



Back to work!





Yay for money!



Gaston's cashier skills are still questionable



And they could finally afford a separate nursery!



I swear, this is the tiniest I've ever made



*Evil look*



*Happy look*



She went sleeping with a horse toy XD



The main question: why this tub is always broken?



AAAAAAAAA!!!! (Rachel still has the horse toy)



She looks really excited XD



I really love this animation, but I rarely have the opportunity to see it!





Gerald, you're a rude boy!



Meanwhile Gaston finished his book! I'm so creative with names and descriptions XD



Wow, great job! I didn't expect this! Maybe, the other residents, perhaps the kids loves animals





This is the end of the round. Note so self: I need more toddler poseboxes
The tax was 1800 simoleons

---
Actually, I'm pretty sure that I misunderstood the ROS event XD
But! I'm so happy how the bookstore turned out! I can't wait to start selling Gaston's novels!
And I hope somebody will be able to buy the pet shop, because it's soooo pretty!
It was so hard for me to fulfill fears! I'm that kind of player who always want to see their sims happy! *shakes fists to ROS*
Anyways, this was the last update in this rotation (and I finally learned what is the difference between a round and a rotation, thanks Didily! And your rules are just awesome :3 ) - so a small summary is coming!
As always, thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed this rotation :D

Where are you getting these ROS? Is that some randomizer? Where can I find one of those? It seems like it would make gameplay more interesting. Oh my the twins are adorable! When Rachel's crying, that reminds me of the movie Cry Baby xD well your caption does. And what are these poses you use? O_O I've been meaning to ask that. I know I'm asking a lot of questions D: sorry. Anyway, the Banks were really cute this time, it sucks that Cornelia had to go into failure D: I want to see my Sims happy too. So mine rarely go into failure.

Yes, the ROS (Random Occurence Scenarios) is basically a simple randomizer program that you can download here:

You just have to drag & drop the text file with the events list, and it'll give you a random event! I use a mixture of these two lists:

I love it because you can add events and set up odds! :D

Oh, I use a lot of various poses for the family pictures, but basically the extracted loading screen poses:

And Jaydee's animation boxes:

I also love seeing my sims happy, and I felt really sorry for Cornelia! It was hard for me to fulfill fears! :)

I totally see what you mean about that Ros! I rolled it and I can't wait to apply it to my game. :D Even though I'm not doing a Bacc. Thanks for telling me about this. One more thing, what does it mean when it says d4 or d100. I've been trying to figure that out for a couple minutes D: Anyway, have a wonderful day. I can't wait until your next post for your bacc :)

[deedee-sims.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! It can fit any game style I think, have fun with it! :D
The d4 means a number between 1 and 4, d100 means a number between 1 and 100 etc. You can find some numbers in the top of the text file, which will give you the proper random number. I mean if you roll the ROS there will be numbers in the top, like d100: 60, d4: 2 etc. If you get a ROS event that says your sim has to do something for d4 days, you just check the random number it gave, so your sim has to do the thing for 2 days. I hope it's clearer now :)
