Not that there's anything inherently wrong with incest: without it the royal families of the world wouldn't exist (nor half the American south :-p )

Why did you prove the first half of what you said wrong with the second half of what you said?

352  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Blind dates and family trees on: 2005 September 23, 19:24:23
So sorry, sanmonroe. if you'd like, I can make something up... Wink

Thanks, Jordi. I guess with every EP they'll organize the townies differently.

No, there is just something wrong about requesting sims incest fanfiction. I will not ask for that.

And my guide to incest on the BBS just vanished. :mad:
353  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Blind dates and family trees on: 2005 September 23, 19:08:19
No, this isn't an incestuous issue.

You had me, then with that sentence lost my attention.

Between pillow fights, playing instruments, and now the card table, I think I will go insane.
355  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Don't Talk, EAT! grrrr on: 2005 September 23, 16:42:50
The only problem is, when you have a family of four sitting down for a meal together, it shouldn't take 4-5 hours for everyone to get full!  They talk so friggin much that the hunger motive goes down only slightly less than it goes up.  It's so annoying that I've had to start staggering my sims so each one eats alone.

Just pretend they are Italian.

Tom, talking of offence, were you aware that the Elder Females do a fair bit of quite offensive swearing?  I am not sure if maybe those words are not considered bad in America (bugger and wankers).   I have been in real trouble for saying damn on American sites, while here in the UK it's considered fairly mild.

How can you complain when an old lady named "Fannie" is calling other Sims "wankers" and saying "bugger"?

Or

How can you complain when an old lady named "Cunt" is calling other sims masterbatingfucktards(best I could translate to) and saying "Ass fuck"?

Now THAT is FUNNY!

I am a member of EB games, and receive each month a newsletter.

This month the "best sellesrs", according EB games are:

Ultima: The Eighth Age (PC) 
Civilization IV (PC) 
EverQuest: Darkhollow (PC) 
F.E.A.R. Director's Ed. DVD (PC) 
City of Villains (PC) 
EQII: Desert of Flames (PC) 
Black & White 2 (PC) 
Ninja Gaiden: Black (XBX) 
We Love Katamari (PS2) 
Warhammer 40K: Winter (PC) 
Age of Empires III (PC) 
Pokémon XD (GCN) 
X-Men Legends II (XBX) 
Nintendogs: Dachshund (DS) 
MK: Shaolin Monks (XBX) 
Sims 2: Nightlife (PC) 
Madden NFL 06 (PSP) 
Fable: The Lost Chapters (PC) 
MK: Shaolin Monks (PS2) 
X-Men Legends II (PS2)

A Sim game in 16th place??? It's a disaster...Smiley.

Perhaps this will teach them to increase the quality of their games...Smiley 


Several of those games are not released yet and are just available for the 5$ or no charge preorder. So that list really isn't what was sold.

Besides, there is no way an EQ expansion outsold a sims EP. EQ1 had 500lk players at its peak, and including Station players is estimated to have around 300k now. They cannot touch TS2 sales. The only MMO that can is WoW.

You may want to read about what EA considers "normal work hours"

http://www.livejournal.com/users/ea_spouse/

The 9AM-10PM 6 days a week to prevent a crunch at the end is my favorite. (followed by changing it to 7 days a week when crunch time comes) With no compensation.
360  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Nightlife: Visitors stand around doing nothing on: 2005 September 20, 21:59:07
Those sims are supposed to be used as fuel for your flame decorations.
361  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Mod Idea: Check Fanmail! on: 2005 September 20, 21:56:41
How about one that lets you browse ts2 bbs and turns you into a child and lose all skills?

362  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: So what's been fixed in NL on: 2005 September 20, 21:54:30
AND he lives in Montana.

Part of montanta 6 weeks away from the postal service. :p
363  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Hey Pescado! on: 2005 September 20, 15:58:00
So Braveheart and/or Pesc are into rough fetish stuff? Lip pulling and pliers etc.

To each his own.
364  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Hey Pescado! on: 2005 September 20, 13:49:06
At the risk of having my lips ripped off..........You are so cute J.M.  I Love you!    Grin

He kisses that hard?

365  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Nightlife bugs on: 2005 September 19, 15:31:10
What exactly is busting a move?  Do humans do it, or is it like the smustle, something thought up for Sims to do?

Teenagers and young adults that are emotionaly stunted and mildly retarded "bust a move". Sadly, it is a real thing.
366  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Hey Pescado! on: 2005 September 19, 15:26:49
Yeah, I rather suspect he's full of shit, but it's his schtick and keeps up his rather odd loner people hating, paranoid persona.

Annoying as hell for us that have to put up with the damned phone ringing and temper tantrums and what's this etc etc though. Makes one wonder, did the people at Maxis PLAY this game? Because there's a lot of feature that universally irritate the hell out of people. I've yet to hear of one person who likes how the phone works or that the sims all run to say what's this when you buy a friggin lightbulb. At least they finally got a clue and got rid of that obnoxious child A+ cheering.

Well the way he described the delivery process, it kind of screams "Us armed forces in the mid east" to me.

So if he is a tech/support stationed in Afghan/Turkey/Iraq etc, he may need to wait 2 months.
367  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Moody sims: furious and contact in NightLife on: 2005 September 18, 19:33:46
Heh I have a neighboorhood that I play with the no jel at all hack on except when I play "joe Morality" and his family.

I switch the hack off, load his family up and hang out downtown.

It is damn entertaining and confusing.
368  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Major Tech Issue: Comp reboots when I scroll in NH view on: 2005 September 18, 02:37:11
The old drivers made a difference for me, it isn't as clean as preNL, but the neighboorhood I am playing is is pretty big and complex, it is at least playable.

My suggestion for you, do a complete clean boot and see if anything else is conflicting.

Assuming you aren't an evil mac user,

1.   Click Start, and then click Run.
2.   In the Open box, type msconfig, and then click OK.
3.   On the General tab, click Selective Startup.
4.   Under Selective Startup, click to clear the following check boxes:
•   Process SYSTEM.INI File
•   Process WIN.INI File
•   Load Startup Items
5.   On the Services tab, click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable All.
6.   Click OK, and then click Restart.

Then everything should be off other than MS vitals. CRTL-ALT-DEL and check to make sure, if you have a few things running check them out, it may be viruses/malware.

Then load the game. If it runs well then you are getting some conflict with anopther program.

If it doesn't work, you have something wrong with the card, driver, etc.
369  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Major Tech Issue: Comp reboots when I scroll in NH view on: 2005 September 17, 19:39:03
I am having the same problem with both a 6800 and 7800 with the newest and the beta drivers. I am not crashing though. The game is also telling me that default/recommended graphics levels are all med or below!!! Major hit to performance since NL installation. Done everything froma  clean boot to checking out Hijack this and doing FPS tests on other games.

Will try the 71 drivers.
 
If the new build and the beta build screw up TS2 I am going to be pissed since they finally fixed quite a bit of the problems and artifacts from shadows in other games.
370  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Hey Pescado! on: 2005 September 17, 16:34:36
Don't have the game yet. It's in shipping, won't arrive for about 6-8 weeks. No playing before then. Must conquer galaxy instead.

 Shocked

Montana sucks!

If the extra costs are the problem with overnighting into the middle of nowhere, put up a paypal link. I bet you can get the cash you need to get a copy by monday morning.  I would toss a few bucks your way just to not hear the GOD DAMNED PHONE RING OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER!!!!!



371  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: About that custom content warning screen on: 2005 September 16, 17:41:59
If the objects have special abilities or actions that have been changed with NL it can conflict.

The phonehack for example, possibly the single greatest hack ever made, breaks some of the new NL interactions.

372  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Can you guys check if I am banned at the BBS? on: 2005 September 16, 17:30:01

Anyone else having problems with NL and the 6800 or 7800s?

No, I'm running an Alienware with a  6800 Ultra 256 (driver version 77.77),  2 GB RAM, 3.0 processor with all options maxed and no troubles; barely any lag, except in P.U.R.E. with all the blasted firey things and a million and 2 sims.  Cheesy

All the new graphic option will return to default when you re enter the game.

...I know that I raised the fade distance to extra large as well, and that one stays as I set it.  I can't remember how the others defaulted.

Well bugger me with a cactus up the catflap.

:embarassed:

Too bad I am at work, because the more I think about it, I may have the beta drivers on the computers since they resolved some of the EQ2 glitches. I am going to need to visit retardo land if that is the problem. I spent far too long testing everything to not think of that.

374  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: mods that do and don't work on: 2005 September 16, 16:19:11
The no jelousy at all mod works fine as something to use for a while.

No problems with it and played a few hours whorering it up in downtown and at home. A little extreme but kind of funny to public woo hoo 4 people in the photo booth while on a date with a 5th sim.

I also have had no problems with any critical fix other than the amnesia.

Any of the woo hoo mods break nightlife though, the phone hack causes errors when sims call you if you miss a date and messes up phone options. So I currently am playing "buy a phone when I want to make a call" and just using boolprop to keep relationships at what I would normally keep them.

375  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Nightlife bugs on: 2005 September 16, 16:07:07
There are definitly some goofy things going on with graphics. I had been running the game maxxed on 2 computers (6800 256 GT  overclocked /w 1.5 gig ram, and the new 7800 crotch rocket w/ 2 gig ram) and with the newest drivers, all tests showing cards work perfectly, the game has problems if I turn reflections on or move more than one option over medium. Even with shadows off!

Anyone else having problems with NL and the 6800 or 7800s?

Annoying as hell to stutter while just trying to scroll accross the neighboorhood and stalling at 7PM/AM a few seconds, and whenever a box opens, etc etc etc.
