Round 3 - 1 ThrowingStars Way

I had some trouble this round with this family. The house they were living in was simply badly designed for a family this big so i moved them out. I really like the original Knight house so i decided to package that house and use it but the thing kept getting buggy. After struggling with it for a couple of hours, i finally figured out how to fix it. I moved the family in and all was good.

JAR: Make a hailstorm with the weather machine and send sim out to play.

Thanks to everyone who told me where to find the weather machine!

We start this round with the new house where there is plenty of room to start a home business. I opened up a small hangout with a TV and a couple of arcade machines. By the time I finished with this house, the business was up to level 7.



Once the family settled in, I bought the weather machine and set it up. Here comes the hail.





You may not be able to tell in that last picture but it is hailing.

Last time we left this house Bria had just been born. She grows up twice in this round.





In the mean time, the family adopts Alvin. He is such a cutie.



And guess what, 2 more teens in this hood. Noelle rolls family and Ben rolls knowledge, however, both their LTW's are to reach the top of the Education career which sounded weird to me.




Lastly, Noelle goes on her first date:

I can't wait to pull the hail storm. Did anything interesting happen with it? Sims yelling ouch. Ducking for cover. Some walk around as if nothing is happening while others react in funny ways. Congratulations on getting LTW to reach top of the Education Career Track. I usually hope for that one to get the career reward for the lot.

Great job on the jar card and your wonderful blog.

Ooo - I've never played with the weather machine and hadn't realised you could literally choose your weather. I'm enjoying your jar cards - you never know what's going to happen next.

Glad you were able to at least save the family and figure out what was buggy with the house. Well done!
Ah brave soul .. thankfully you only got the hail you were hoping for *grins* I haven't played with the machine yet.. too chicken to I reckon...

ok - woof! I know that I'm like way behind with this comment - but I have had this marked down to come back to & finish reading & poke at you!! Are you still playing KvsN? I read about your pix problem :*( sorry! But you could use a screen capture program - there's ton of free ones out there! :D (or you could just play & enjoy your game & I'll shut up now, lol!)
Anywhoooo - Congrats on the successful hang out business! *claps* I've never had good luck with that kind! And too funny about the hail & the weather machine - I love that thing~! :D
Noelle & Ben both spun up cute & it doesn't surprise me that they want to do the same career - they've grown up so close, lol!
