Dunno, best ask Madelaine's Parents ^^
Sorry, what? I'm an old wreck of time and I am not able to process or comprehend your comment.
There's been a media frenzy over here purely because of Madeline McCann. Or rather, her parents not realizing that it is a bad idea to leave your children (with a collective age of 7) in a hotel room unattended with the door unlocked. For some reason, the media has given massive amounts of sympathy to the parents, instead of condemning them, while the parents have been flying around the world in a donated private jet in an attempt to raise awareness (and get more money out of her disappearance). We'll never hear the end of it, regardless of if she was snatched, wandered off and got in an accident somehow, or if the parents killed her. Hell, some papers over here haven't stopped talking about Princess Diana yet, and that was 10 years ago.

OK, with you now. I did see this story a couple of weeks ago over here in the Outer Limits of Canada, but the only Madeline that popped into my mind was the one from the "12 little girls in two straight lines" stories. Was not aware of the 'leaving kids in room alone with door unlocked' part of the story. That part was conveniently omitted by the Canadian papers (and any webnews I saw, come to think of it).
Fortunately, the 'secret day-care service' in BV hotels will deal with this in game, although it does not, apparently, stop children getting food poisoning while parents are away for the day (mind you, food poisoning is a feature of many tropical holidays for many people, so perhaps that's just realistic - do we also have hepatitis and other diseases available from drinking the water?).

Someone on another forum has just discovered a drawback to this time synchronisation. They took the adults out to do some sightseeing, leaving the child eating his breakfast back at the hotel. When they got back, it was late at night, the child was still eating his breakfast. But it had spoiled by then, and the child got foodpoisoning.
That's odd. I have Sims leave their vacation lot for 2 days (the check into the hotel, leaving the pregnant Sim sleeping) and when they got back, I specifically noted that the food that had been left on the counter wasn't spoiled. When I woke up the remaining Sim, I had her put away the leftovers.

And the later is looking quite possible, based on the news today that the mother (and possibly father) is now a suspect.
(And now back to your regularly scheduled thread... :) )

Honestly, it's about time we get some more diseases. Including the "Get AIDS" Fear for Romance Sims.
