So I wonder if the curse of the cheeks is gonna be gone now, hmmmm! :scratchchin: we'll have to see with this next one
Great update Diz, :update:

Delaney agrees to go under an experimental erm.... experiment. To see if we can eradicate the nasty cheek gene from passing on. The experiment consisted of Delaney getting plastic surgery on the offending cheeks... (the problem is actually the lips)... and of the almighty Dizzy messing around with Delaney's dominant and recessive genes. Keep your fingers crossed... cause if it don't work or if they don't make a kid with better facial structure... Delaney may meet with an accident and Nate might have to re-marry this wouldn't work diz...cause according to legacy rules the only ones who are allow to carry on the legacy (the heir) needs to be able to trace themselves back to the original founding sim....if delaney meets with an accident and nate remarries his kids with the new wife won't be related to lucius...thus they would not be able to carry on as heir..... great update btw...and i'm glad that it wasn't one of the sims that died...

Good thing I am playing by 'Dizzy Legacy Rules" then eh.... I stated that right out....lol The fact that the 2nd generation was played to grow beyond a toddler is a miracle ... I always lose interest.. it's more a story of the family then the actual legacy challenge... but thanks

Aww, poor Marvaduke the birdie... he didn't last very long. Poor birdie. Stupid Pets bugs. New addition, eh eh?! Can't wait to see if the new baby has Delaney's "cheek curse"... ehehehe you should start taking bets Nate looks so cute in that Captain Hero uniform! I really love that Uniform... but with Seasons and the Gamer career there is a new uniform that cracks me up... you'll see it in my legacy when I can be bothered to get off my ass and get an update in. Hehehe. :update: !

Side note: Yeah it is a bug from pets with the caged animals. I have the hamster/womrat in a family now and every 5 seconds it seems the critters dish is empty, so I have to keep refilling it and refilling it. My poor sims lives revolve around that dreadful rat but they love him anyways. I may need to see it JM Pescado has the Season's upgrade fix for it yet.
Anyways, Dizzy I hope the curse skips the next Alabaster kid. But then there is still a chance that the next generation after may have it happen just not as bad. Eventually it works it's way out. Great update :cookie: :cookie: :rose: :cookie: :cookie: .

Chapter 12(get comfy... it's a long one)Okay I thought I would start by showing you all what the house looked like now. I don't have a before picture cause something went wrong with it. But this was the house that is right next door to the Calientes. At first I was having a few problems cause i was working around the original house.. but I think I finally got it a pretty nice house that the family can grow in... it's still a bit weird in side as I was still working around the original floor plan. I don't know what they did, but Delaney and Lilly became best friends... we'll see how long it lasts... i am thinking Lilly hits 14 and it's over Nate brings home a friend from work *so good to see my custom townies are doing so well for them selves... already to the top of a career * Nate thinks the long day of fighting crime really can make you hungry. Once again Delaney rolled a want for getting in her pj's.... all these clothes I have bought for her and all she wants to were are her pj's While Lilly has a convo with grandpa Lucius... Delaney is talking on the phone about.. being in love with herself?! Lucy has been dying to invite some one over and finally she caught some one at home.. she called over her co-worker. Who could that be... How nice.. right away she goes over to tip Delaney.. Then Lucy shares the dirt on the mailman..hehe I found Lilly doing her homework like a good girl.. only thing is she was out on the front lawn o.O Back inside.. Delaney's tummy pops Lucius decides to paint a picture of Lucy (she'll be an elder in a few days time) After her bird dying, Lilly makes sure the doggy dishes are always clean and full... even though the vet said that was not the cause of death for Marvaduke. Awww.. how sweet.. Delaney stopped doing what I had told her to and I was about to yell at her, but then saw she was running out to give Nate (just home from work) a big hug! Pretty soon it is Lucius' birthday *sniffle, he's getting old* Hmmm... doesn't look too elder except that horrid outfit :/ So I gave him a make over cause if he is gonna be an elder he better look the part. So this is the first sim played to elder in my game ever! YAY! I guess getting new hair and changing clothes was a lot of work and he had to rest for a bit..hehe While Lucius is taking it easy down stairs.. the party continues down stairs... Delaney gets down as Nate and Lucy make some music. Delaney's tummy pops again Lucy lets Lucius know that she still finds him as handsome as ever. And he sings to her This is such a musical family... now Lucy and Leo play together. Check out Nate jammin' on the guitar .. Oooh yeah! Lilly and Delaney play chess.. I kept seeing Delaney look away and finally found the cause.... Delaney was tricking her so she could cheat! And when she is called on it she has no explanation lol.. nice I noticed Nate and Lucius just because best friends.. that is good Lucius, he is married to your daughter and the father of your grand kids A few days later Bells turns to an old dog.. you may not realize it, but she is an elder in this pic.. and that is Bernard in front of her.. he will be an Elder soon. Because Bella has been so good to the family, Nate calls in the let the show biz people that Bella is retiring. Lilly brought some one home from school and they have fun playing Mary Mack Another birthday! This time it's little Leo's turn to get a bit older. Make a wish! I like how they all stand back ... just in case he explodes instead of growing up. Good thing Leo got his piece of cake cause right after Lucius took the cake and threw it out O.o I guess he didn't think any one else needed any. Lucius congratulates Leo on growing a bit It seemed like they were getting on fine, but when Lucius tried to hug Leo he pushed him away. mean while Lucy and Delaney get down with their funky selves **Stay tuned for the next chapter to find out what other surprise was that night!

Ok, that was strange... I just posted (and then immediately deleted my post after) but half of my post got cut off?! I have no idea what happened there. Hmm, I better repeat what I just typed then. Grr. Diz, if you're wondering why it says « Last Edit: Today at 4:04pm by Kate » at the bottom of your update, that's because I edited it! Some of your IMG coding wasn't working properly and two images weren't showing - and because I'm too damn impatient to wait for you to log on I edited your code to make the images appear. That was a great (long) update! Me liked very much. The house looks really lovely! I love the exterior - I really like the white stucco/paint on the exterior walls. I would say I liked the interior too, but I've never seen proper pictures of that. Hehe. I can't believe everyone is getting old! Ughh, Lucius and soon Lucy... Bella and Bernard... ugh, life is just not fair! I can imagine you will be really upset when your first legacy Sim dies seeing as you don't usually play with elders... I was the same, and when I saw Leon Quinn die I was quite upset! Why do people (and Sims) have to die?! I also have to say - which I feel very ashamed about - but I just had to laugh at the picture of Leo holding plate with the piece of cake on. He's, uh, funny-looking to say the least. Those lips! Aww, I suppose it's not his fault though; they were just the genes that were passed onto him. , so we can see the new bub'!

Kate:Diz, if you're wondering why it says « Last Edit: Today at 4:04pm by Kate » at the bottom of your update, that's because I edited it! Some of your IMG coding wasn't working properly and two images weren't showing - and because I'm too damn impatient to wait for you to log on I edited your code to make the images appear. I don't mind you editing it at all But that is strange cause i previewed it and then checked it all over even after I posted it and all the pictures were there... odd. I will try and remember to take a few pics of the inside.... :devil: hehehe.... maybe I will just do that for the next chapter and leave you all waiting longer to see the new baby. Yeah it will be really hard when Lucius dies (don't care too much about Lucy though ) I just keep trying to tell myself that I made Lucius in body shop so i *could* always re-install him with a different name some time later. And i keep trying to remind myself of the over crowded town I had last time cause no one ever died but had kid or two ... actually in my old game I over crowded Pleasantveiw so much that it wouldn't load even the town in under 20 mins :/ Anti: Yeah I have no idea what Leo's problem was... hehe.. maybe he had wanted another piece of cake, but Lucius took it away too soon. Colada: Thanks for the comments on the house... the only reason I said it was a bit odd is cause it is a build out on the original house... and the floor plan is a bit goofy in side... I am still debating on building a totally new house for them and moving lots.. but I am unsure yet.

Chapter 13Okay ... where were we... oh yes.. It was Leo's birthday, he just grew up and in the middle of the festivies..... Pretty soon the whole family realizes what is happening. I have always wondered how the diaper didn't fall off on the way out..hehe Meet Locke Alabaster Nate's fatherly instincts kick in right away. Upstairs Leo has found the new toy box that was magically placed there by the powers that be. *The above was on a different day of playing as the rest of the chapter... and I err.. had odd things happening in my game from the rest of the chapter.Something went terribly wrong with Bella. Lilly tried to do a cartwheel and fell and nice brother that he is.. Leo laughed and booed. Leo off on his first day of school. Ack! Nate don't take off soo close the the helicopter propellers! Okay I have to say... I thought the limo was a cool right to work, but Lucius' new ride takes the cake! A new townie was walking by and Delaney went out to greet him. Why does that guy look so familiar?...hehe Delaney loves to tell jokes and she had Charlie laughing so hard I was afraid he would wet himself But it was Delaney that had to run for the bathroom. But Charlie is nice and waited for Delaney to get back so they could continue to talk. Delaney: "Yeah my husband wants a lot of kids.. I think if he was the one having the kids, i think he would think differently." Lilly got really good marks in school and Delaney was too into talking to Charlie to pay any attention. A pillow fight soon breaks out. A passerby complaining about all the noise the landing helicopter is making. Nate came home and did the "I got a promotion" thing, but he didn't get a promotion.. In fact Nate you um.. are already at the top of your career. Lucy came out of her car pool with a stick in her hand O.o I can not keep this family away from the musical instruments.. I am seriously thinking of taking them away.. It's almost like they wait in line to get on them.. Nate loves his uniform so much he even cooks dinner in it. ..hehe Back out in the living room Lilly is dancing (of trying to *snickers*) I just thought this was so cute, Nate is such a good father checking on little Locke sleeping. That's all for now... I will tell you all that something kinda big happens in the next chapter. Hmmm.. what could it be.... Delaney caught cheating with Charlie?!..... One of the dogs kicks the can?!..... The Sims finally realize they are controlled by a higher being and revolt?!... Find out next time!

Hmm.....Pina, I was thinking the same thing and you might be on to something! But, it could be the old' sims ganna piss them selves thing! Loved the update, diz! Awww, baby! What are the genes? i think the eyes are different from the last two! Cute name! I can't wait to see Locke as a tod! Nate is such a good father ! Aww, poor lily! I really don't think that leo will be a canidate for the voting for me. He's to much of a brat! Darn kid! Be nicer to your sister! I'd wanna see you try and do that! OOOOO! the helicopter is very cool! I'd love to see my sims ride in that! What career does that use? Such a major flirt with Charlie, ey Delainey? Man, big flirt! is that cooper? Hmmm....well, if i was in this family, I know i'd be heading strait for the piano! Thats for sure!!! Awwww, such a cute update! :update:

Colada: hehehe... at this point in the story a new baby is not big news to me I think i said i am gonna see if they have a bonch if at least one will get a different combo of the genes. It has yet to happen So the big thing has to do with existing sims.. not the yet to be born. Anti:All the kids have all had Nate's coloring (hair, eyes, skin) But Delaney's structure. And the helicopter is with the business career track.. you get it once you reach the top. And I have no idea why Leo turned out so mean I will post all the kids' stats when i get them all to Uni (like Kate did) but I had a peak at Leo's (cause I forgot to look before) and his Grouchy/Nice thing is at a one Which is a bit odd cause both Nate and Delaney's are in the middle or high.

Is the passer-by complaining about the helicopter noise Jonah?! I always think a Sim is Jonah whenever I see that quiffy-hair thingymabob. I reckon Delaney's pregnant again... but gasp, she can't cheat with Charlie! That's just a no-no! And I'd like to think Charlie wouldn't be the sort of man who'd tempt a woman... or would he... *stares at Charlie* You best be carefully hunny, or I'll punish you! *wiggles eyebrows* And poor Bella at the beginning there... she had no middle! Poor thing. :update:

Post by Dizzy on Mar 8, 2007 21:16:08 GMT
Shell: Actually no matter what you named Cooper he would always be named that... just cause it's ... him And I too laughed at the bird dying... there really ws no reason for him to. I have since found out it was a game bug... but when I went to down load the patch it doesn't say anything about that being fixed :/ Kate: That passer-by *is* Jonah Yes Delaney is preggers again... no secret there... Will update in a bit so you guys can see what went on.
