So each house hold has one of Monique's and the rest are normal from the game so I do not lose the Freetime functions.
MQ's computer has been updated for FT by modders here.

One question how do you set your college costs to a higher amount? And do the other things you talk about Darcee? While I am not new to the game, I am new to editing and creating things for it.
As far as I know, no one has made a mod to charge for college costs (though that would be a really cool mod!). So I use Monique's computer, and you can either donate the money (it just vanishes into space), or my uni has a President who owns all of the campus lots, and through Monique's computer, they can pay their tuition to her so that she can go around building up the campus.
What other things did you want to know about? There are a ton of different mods and cheats I use for my random events, none of which I made myself ;)
Zaleth:
I will download the updated computer tonight! and thanks for what you do for the cost of college I can do that as well! great idea.

I'd be absolutely interested in a list when it comes to that.

Well, as this thread isn't TOO old yet, I thought I'd add that I'm trying something new with my hood. Real-time seasons in each round - each household will be played representing a particular month of the year, so that I can see the seasons progress twice through the year in each round (two-year rounds). Since my 'hood is so huge, I feel like I've been stuck in the same season forever and I can't wait to get out of fall! :)
I don't know if anyone's tried something like this before, but if you want to give it a try in your own neighborhood, I've written up a more detailed post about it in my blog: http://lakesideheights.blogspot.com/2008/07/real-seasons-in-each-round-and-of.html
I also just drew four new random events for the new round I'm playing.

Eeek! That would take forever! :) But I'll tell you about the ones I drew for my most recent round.
- a teenager runs away from home -- I actually have never tried this one before. I think the relationships just need to be back and then it happens automatically, right? So I have a fight anytime mod (or something like that) by Squinge (?) which would do the trick.
- a forced chance card pass! -- testing cheats, the chance card tester thing.
- a deadline to write an article -- Monique's computer has an option to write articles for money.
- DUI! pay a $1000 fine and cannot drive for 10 years! -- I'll use familyfunds for the fine, and as far as not being able to drive, that will just be up to me to enforce. I'll make a little note by her name on my chart so I remember.
Feel free to ask about any particular events you'd like to know about.
