A very unfortunate event

 Cry
I just had townie die on a home based business. She was in the pool enjoying herself when all of a sudden she started to gasp for air. I heard a faint sound but ignored it thinking it was just the sounds of fun and splashing. Next thing I know everyone takes a hit to customer loyalty..and then I see her in the pool, arms flailing. I could do nothing to save her, the grim reaper was already on the scene, and no one knew her enough to plead. She died that night, don't know if it was hunger or drowning that did her in.

Maybe she couldn't reach the pool ladder because another sim was in the way.

They are broken because the server has an anti-hotlinking measure. If you get the properties for any of the missing images and copy and paste the URL, the image will show up, and then when you view this page again, that image (and only that image) will show up on the page also. I only bothered to try it with two; there's no incentive for anyone to do it for all of them. Best find another server.

But I'm not even seeing that.  I just see a large empty space.  Huh  I was wondering why there was such a large blank area.

You mean an Error 403?  They are so curt and ill-mannered, in my opinion!

So, was there a question being asked to go along with the now-removed pictures?

I'm not sure, I'm thinking it was maybe a memoriam to the dead townie?

From the first two pictures it would appear she died of starvation, as she seems to be holding her stomach.  There's some inbuilt thing that is supposed to send them home when they're near starvation, but certain things seem to override it and I think being stuck in the pool is one of them.  No matter, 'twas only a townie.

Shame, though, if she was one of your sims managers - he'd have to train another one for the job!

I see the pics now.  She was definitely starving, as the first pic shows the red hunger desperation icon in her thought bubble.

No, I think that thought bubble goes with the other sim nearer the ladder -- it's hard to tell for sure, though.

I think that sim was blocking her from climibing out.  You need more pool ladders!

It looks to me that the thought bubble is definitely over the other sim's head, the one near the ladder. I don't see a thought bubble over the drowning sim's head at all.

You're right, my bad.  Sad  It seems that it ought to go with the drowning sim though, since that or energy desperation is usually what causes them to drown.

The hunger desperation bubble is for the other sim in the blue suit (on the far left side in 1st pic), not the one that is drowning. There was another pool ladder, so she could have swam to her right and gotten out that way. You can see it in the 9th pic, the one with the grim reaper over the water. Another sim in the blue suit is using it to get out.

If she was hungry, why didn't she get out? Also, what is the white stuff that is over her head in the 1st and 2nd pics? It looks like she was choking on a chicken or something.
Have sims that weren't pregnant died by choking?

I know she was just a townie but she was one of the rare decent looking ones that I was going to marry off in future generations.

I wondered about those white bits too!

I suppose you could resurrect her, but don't tell Pescado!

The "white bits" look like bubbles to me. Smiley
