Having just picked up The Sims 2 Deluxe and The Sims University, I figured it was about time we had another Forum House. Anyone interested in participating again? As before, there will be SIX[/i] housemates, which means that I need FIVE volunteers, plus myself.
If you're up for it, post in this thread. Ideally I'd like a mugshot of you if I don't have one already, as well as the following information:
[b]Your Sim's Aspiration - choose from Romance, Knowledge, Fortune, Popularity or Family.
Your Sim's Attributes - distribute points across Neatness, Outgoingness, Activeness, Playfulness, and Niceness. Each can have a max of 10 points, but you can't issue more than 25 points overall.
As before, I'm quite happy to do Custom Clothes. You may recall I had Angelus in a Metallica shirt, Euan in a hat with the word "Hat" on it, and so forth. If you have any requests and they're within my power, I'll give it a go.
THE LIST SO FAR

I still have your Sim stored on my computer, funnilly enough. Just checked the Sims 2 BodyShop to discover all of the Sims from my first attempt are still there.

Oooh nice.
In any case, my hair's longer now (http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/9729/photo1id2.jpg). :p
Plus I'm older. :(

Squirminator2k
26 Jan 2008, 04:31
Wow. How very metal of you.
Edit: Right, I have you in the same outfit you were in previously, but I've made your hair longer (sadly there is no "slightly curly" hairstyle to suit) and made your face a bit more accurate. Whoo.

Zero72
26 Jan 2008, 06:20
I'm grabbing the second spot as we speak. Go, me.

MtlAngelus
26 Jan 2008, 07:28
Y'know, I wouldn't mind a different outfit. :p
Unfortunately, I don't have sims 2 installed, and I don't remember what's available... :p
So um probably something a bit more rocker, less metal... if that makes sense. :p

Are you on MSN right now?
Edit: Angelus' clothing has been updated.

Let's mix it up a little:
Aspiration: Romance
Neat: 3
Outgoing: 8
Active: 5
Playful: 5
Nice: 4
Got to be some way of getting laid, even if it's in a virtual world.
Pictars: Facebook.

Well we need the gay comedy relief.
Aspiration: Fortune
Neat: 4
Outgoing: 2
Active: 4
Playful: 7
Nice: 8
I'll post an updated pic eventually. Think "Hairy Hairy Dan".
Edit: Do not be fooled that is not a beard (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/supsuper/Fotos/Imagem64_.jpg)

Akuryou13
26 Jan 2008, 16:17
yeah....this won't end well, but i'll toss mine in as well.
Aspiration: Romance (most fitting of the selection)
Neat: 4
Outgoing: 3
Active: 6
Playful: 6
Nice: 6
those would be realistic stats, btw. I'm somewhat neat but not really. I don't mind doing things, but I'm not particularly outgoing. same for active. I'm somewhat playful but not too much and I'm fairly nice, I'm just a huge smart ass :p
if you need a picture I'll have my wife snap one of me, as the most recent ones are from our wedding, and I've grown my hair out since then.
edit: wow, this house is going to be a pig sty. the highest neatness value is 5/10 :p

MtlAngelus
26 Jan 2008, 16:25
There's only room for six, Aku. :p

Do you still wear the horned hat, Nathan?

Squirminator2k
26 Jan 2008, 19:35
Andy, Matty and Daniel it is, then. Funky stuff.
DANIEL HAS AN INCREDIBLY THIN SCARF ON.

worMatty
26 Jan 2008, 20:15
In-keeping with the camp theme, then? If the scarf is unnecessary it would prove it for sure.

Squirminator2k

http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/dan.jpg
This is Daniel.

SupSuper
26 Jan 2008, 22:06
So very lifelike.
LET THE WACKY HIJINKS COMMENCE!

Squirminator2k
26 Jan 2008, 22:35
Everyone's ready, all I need to do now is get Zeor's stats and we're ready to Rock and Roll.
Edit: Dan quite rightly pointed out that Zeor's stats are listed in my old thread. For those of you playing at home, here they are:
Aspiration: Family
Neat: 6
Outgoing: 4
Playful: 7
Active: 3
Nice: 5

HAHA!
The Sims 2 Deluxe inclues TS2 and the Nightlife expansion, which is mostly about dating. The best part? When you create a family member, you get to choose two turn-ons and one turn-off. Rather than give people a say in the matter, I figure I'll just increase the entertainment value by deciding for them.
Daniel - you like fat chicks who stink, right?

Star Worms
26 Jan 2008, 23:30
Would you mind editing my eyes to blue please (they look green).
I was just about to say that you could mistake Dan for a terrorist, but then I noticed his jacket.
Edit: Dan is Saddam Hussein in disguise... just look at the noose around his neck; he didn't really die!

Akuryou13
27 Jan 2008, 01:08
There's only room for six, Aku. :pI miscounted. so sue me :p
Do you still wear the horned hat, Nathan? har dee har har.

Star Worms
27 Jan 2008, 02:34
You could always add Aku in another house and call him around occasionally... they sometimes walk by the house anyway.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:33
Too late, Andy... IT HAS BEGUN.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/00.jpg
The game starts, I build the house. Naturally, everyone decides to enter the house and investig---...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/01.jpg
Oh.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/02.jpg
Er...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/03.jpg
...Right.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/04.jpg
No, no. Don't let me interrupt. I'll just wait over here.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:35
Zeor and Andy decide to move their fight across the street.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/05.jpg
Meanwhile...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/06.jpg
"ALL HAIL HYPOTOAD."
"That Sup... he seems a little..."
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/07.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/09.jpg
"VWEEE HEEE HEEE STOPIT!"

27 Jan 2008, 06:37
Enough banter. LET THE ORGY COMMENCE.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/10.jpg
Aww.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/11.jpg
Aww.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/12.jpg
"Step off, *****!"
Finally, someone goes into the house.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/13.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/14.jpg
I am not stalking Matty.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:39
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/15.jpg
The house as it stood when I began this pointless exercise.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/16.jpg
Andy decides he wants to murder every musical note ever.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/17.jpg
I have no idea how long these people were waiting. I don't think they ever left.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/18.jpg
POOT.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/19.jpg
It alarms me just how much time Matty and I are spending with each other.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:41
Matty and I share a manly, butch embrace...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/20.jpg
Then decide to talk about Zeor behind his back.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/21.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/22.jpg
It seems he burns food. This seems a tad hypocritical considering that NONE OF THEM CAN COOK.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/23.jpg
Zeor's over-enthusiastic bowling...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/24.jpg
...is matched only by Sup's Mario-jump celebration.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:43
I'm relaxing.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/25.jpg
Matty is watching.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/26.jpg
And watching.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/27.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/28.jpg
Ah, this seems a marvelous return to form.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:47
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/31.jpg
Everyone Angelus tries to hug tells him to bugger off. Apparently he's a little too friendly for their liking.
Despite not knowing anyone, I get a phonecall...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/29.jpg
...from someone...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/30.jpg
...who I apparently don't like very much.
I've been invited for a night out with some People I Don't Know. Hoorah!

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:50
This is the place.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/32.jpg
The taxi pulls up outside, and I and a few strangers climb out. We then proceed to socialise, chat, dance, sing...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/33.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/34.jpg
...oh. Don't mind me. I'll just sit here, shall I?
Nuts to this - I call a taxi and head home.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/35.jpg
Apparently calling a taxi involves wild gesturing with the arms.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/36.jpg
Hey, I don't remember saying these *******s could come home WITH ME.

Squirminator2k
27 Jan 2008, 06:55
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/37.jpg
I roll into bed...
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/38.jpg
Apparently sleeping is a spectator sport. I didn't nab a picture in time, but at one point ALL OF THE VISITORS WERE STANDING AT THE END OF MY BED WATCHING ME SLEEP. Terrifying.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/39.jpg
GET OUT
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/40.jpg
OF MY HOUSE
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/41.jpg
YOU GITS.

An argument breaks out in the bathroom, and the Sims get caught in a perpetual loop of shooing people out of the room, then getting shoo'd out by someone else who, in term, shoos them out. Now I remember why I built more toilets last time.

MtlAngelus
27 Jan 2008, 07:31

Fun fact: That jacket was originally black, and making it blue was an unbelievably painstaking project of mine. I don't like the model it used. I'd make my own on a better model if I were competent.
Oh yeah, and: This is already great.

http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/44.jpg
Matty is well aware that he stinks.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/45.jpg
But he can't do anything about it now. He's far too busy checking out the new shower rooms.
Meanwhile...

http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/50.jpg

The following morning begins as all days should.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/52.jpg
With a PILLOW FIGHT.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/55.jpg
And bad body odour. Yeesh.
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/53.jpg
http://stuff.benpaddon.co.uk/sims2/54.jpg
We're a house full of stinky people. And Freeloaders who don't mind pointing out our stinkiness. As a reminder, the Freeloading *******s (particularly Freeloading Pervert) stayed in the house ALL GODDAMN NIGHT while we slept. That's... that's just wrong.

Matty doesn't understand the finer points of toilet-human interactions.

AFAIR, the last time this was hilariously homoerotic pillow fight trip. With a viking.
Seeing all these pictures, one might wonder what a crappy game Sims must be...
Does there ever happen anything sensible or reasonable? :rolleyes:

More pics tonight.I think Maxis caught on themselves. While the first Sims was pretty much a innovative yet boring uninteresting pointless sim, the expansions were popular for the zaniness they added, so they ended up making The Sims 2 so zany that you'll even question if you're actually dealing with humans anymore.
