Great story, I read it just after it was released. Too bad you don't get any waffles.  |

reggikko, doesn't the Challenge allows you to resurrect the elders - it was quite sad to see them dying...  . Besides that - wonderful story. And the toddler is gorgeous! |

reggikko, doesn't the Challenge allows you to resurrect the elders - it was quite sad to see them dying... . Besides that - wonderful story. And the toddler is gorgeous! Thanks, Gali. Yes, I could resurrect them, but I already have too many Sims on this lot. As it is, people spend a lot of time meditating so I can keep track of everyone. I never used to let my Sims die, but I've found I prefer letting them go and moving on to the next generations. Sad sometimes, but it helps me keep interested to move on. John will be back, reincarnated for my next attempt at this challenge. That particular Sim has been my founder each time. Then again, maybe I should ditch him. He's been kind of a jinx! |

Reggiko!
I am so glad to see you're still in this... have to say I haven't done much on mine lately, my second couple had just finished toddler training their twin boys (freaks) when something went screwy with the neighbourhood. Have been trying to get my computer sorted out as I consider finally buying University so I can get all the yummy new downloads I've been missing out on. How could this not be easier with the help with hacks like the encouri-whatever... one of my twins, despite both parents' 0 neat points had 7!
Your stories have inspired me to continue... must try again...

Well, hey! I haven't seen you in forever. I'm considering starting with a couple next time. I have some new strategies I want to try out, too. I will beat this challenge! |

I know, I can't believe how long it's been since I've been on - I've been playing, but the game has been boring lately, and challenges with walls... well, they just don't seem challenging at all now. heh heh
I started a new one tonight. I won't say third, because my second is still fine, just not in a neighbourhood that is currently loaded.
I used a couple this time because my I started my first with a single, and that mailman (Sheldon) introduced an ugly gene that still sends twinges through me when I see his grandsons...
Not sure how this one will go, I'd forgotten how scary that first few days is... but the jobs worked out great so that she worked almost constantly until her maternity leave. Science, medicine, culinary, slacker, military (if I recall correctly)
Because I'm obsessed with the culinary reward for toddlers, I put him into the career and he earned it the night his son was born. Glad for a son, but remembering how handy the little puke-machines are, I may go for a daughter... so much easier to breed.

Thanks to this challenge, for the first time in my game, I saw a sim having nightmares. He had nightmares of the cow mascott; He was sleeping and then suddenly a bubble above his head with the head of the cow in it and he woke up screaming in his bed and then fell asleep again. Hilarious!

The Puke Machines are actually quite useful. Feed the baby, mess with it until it pukes, then use the shower due to low hygiene to satisfy bladder. |

Aha! Good point! Babies can be an important bit of strategery here! That's a better way to get the sims to spend some time in the shower than working their tushes off on the obstacle course or weight machine because you don't have to wear them out just to get them to do their duty. |

Exactly my point,
Babies and toddlers are wonderful additions to any Email home... poor things get fed and shaken until they toss, then they transition and can't figure out why their parents can't be bothered to play with them once they hit the child stage.

I've been playing this challenge with 2 families because i had a plan to marry their kids off. The first family started with one guy, and it was going well untill he married badly. It was Ericka the gardner girl, who has horrible personality, but is actually quite neat. She hasn't had any accidents, but Derk, her husband caught her cheating (she's romance), and since the marriage is not going so well, and she is annoying, I am wondering if they can break up and I can move her out, or will that incur I penalty? My reading of the rules is that it would be okay, but I wanted to check. I know she can't move back in later, but no one wants her to.
I had a problem with my second family (started with a couple) because the guy wouldn't pee on bushes, but from reading the posts here it seems he wasn't quite outgoing enough. The woman is happy to remain an emailian, and they will raise their child(ren) email, so they will be excellent potential mates for the orthodox emailian family.
Working on a story, but I want to finish the bachelorette series first.

This is one of the funniest stories I've read yet. I know I'm entering this thread late, but I wanted to tell you I laughed so hard when you introduced the Viking Mime guy I thought I was going to pee my pants ... and thus lose the RL Email challenge LOL. |

Thanks for the bump! I enjoyed rohina's & Oddysey's stories.
I'm still wondering why the challenge is called "Email", though...
