Shared neighborhood - ground rules
humybyrd:
Yes I like the 2 teir idea as well, gives choice to the matter of what direction you want to take your sims. Naming it Simpotence is a great idea. I did start a thread for self-sims on Peasantry, with a little bit of info but otherwise sterile sim. regardless of how we decide to handle hacks I'm in, playing my way is getting boring so maybe playing someone elses way will be more stimulating.
As far as the neighborhood goes make it empty to start and get the lots seperately. Will make it much easier for some to get them than one big package. Pictures of the terrain fully made should suffice as far as what goes where.
Any more thought as to the townies? I still like the thought of each contributing a few and replacing the ones in default. Even if some are bizzare looking they would be more interesting than the same-ol-same-ol that the game gives to every single one you make.

Can we ban the intentional use of the name Goopy?

Well the idea of this whole thing seems interesting to me because I am bored with my game and to make it exciting I do need goals or scenario to play those families, it does not have to be rules. If I don't have that I will not change the way I play and get bored with that within 1 week.
I agree we need to choose the same hood and download houses and families seperately. Since I don't want extra stuff I would agree that people that have the tools to do so could modify the genetics and look of the Sim the way they want as long as they do not touch the aspiration and LTW the Sim have at the beginning. Of course we can modify their physical appearance if wewish like new clothes, adding make-up or things like that. As long as a blonde girl stays a blonde girl I don't personally mind what you do with them after you install them in the neighborhood. As long as there are not only Barbie's and Ken's in my neighborhood I am happy :P Same goes with the house, if you wish to change the wallpaper afterward it is all up to us, nobody here have the same taste so it would be really hard to please everyone.
I am not saying that it can never be change later just that it is something not be touched with from the start. In some families with certain goals or scenario we could specify if it is allowed or not to use rewards and how to use them. But for other families it could be a lifetime goal a bit like the legacy challenge but with other types of goals.
There is so many features I did not try in the game like having gay couples, having romantic sims with tons of lover, having vampires, having at least 5 ghosts on the same lot (which are not Maxis made lots) and the list do go on, hey believe it or not I never even had 1 wedding or birthday party though I play every day.... I am more into house party thing and not very much into the big families thing.
I spend the last 2 months preparings lots and neighborhoods rather than playing with my Sims and when I do, I do the same thing over and over (matching them, make them have a baby, etc), remember I mention I made 7 families find perfect match and then get pregnant, it took me 3 days to do that after the babies were born, I had no idea what to do with them anymore and just place back my back-up... Pathetic lol. So basically I create families make them do a few things, scrap them and start over... I am sure you understand how boring a game can be that way....
EDIT: I did not always plays like that, it more lately that I tend to do the same things over, I guess I just want the perfect family which I even find annoying lol
