Strangetown Extras: Smustle dance competition

Ripp recently gained enough enthusiasm in the Music and Dance hobby to have access to the secret lot, so he decided to visit, and he invited Johnny and Ophelia along.







All three friends sign up for a smustle dance competition, and the dancing begins.








That's some good smustling.




Soon it's all over, and Johnny starts to second guess his moves.




Ophelia anxiously awaits the results. Ripp does his best imitation of a shy person.




Johnny receives the bad news first.




Ripp is the champion, and he doesn't mind rubbing it in. Ophelia just can't tolerate her defeat. Ripp wins bragging rights and $500. Pretty sweet. That's an easy way to make money.




Ophelia gets over the loss pretty quickly. At least she's not as bad as some of the other dancers. They all have a good laugh at the lame dance moves of the other competitors.




Then Ripp heads upstairs to further his training.

Was the dance competition at an old folks home? *snort*

Ophelia, it's not nice to make fun of OLD FARTS! Shame on you. . .*snort*. . .cracka please, who am I kidding. Making fun of old farts is the best.

Don't break a hip now!

That's some good smustling.

The third picture. THAT IS THE CUTEST SMUSTLE FACE, JOHNNY!

Was the hobby "leader" actually smustling? I think there's some kind of glitch where even in a smustling competition, the hobby leader doesn't smustle, but dances a solo. It annoyed me when I sent my sim to the dance lot and he lost, when his opponent WASN'T EVEN SMUSTLING!

Oh no you don't! If Ripp is doing ballet, I DEMAND to see him in some tights! He has to wear the proper attire! :P

Oh, and totally not surprised that Johnny lost. Not exactly a fun-loving guy, is he?

I love having the dance competitions! In my game though, the Hobby Leader lady ALWAYS Wins. Its totally not fair. Ophelia looks adorable smustling. :)

Ripp looks so pleased in that last picture. I can so see him taking dancing lessons just to meet women.

Secret lot? This is an aspect of FT I didn't know about. Is there one for every hobby?

Poor Johnny. What a woeface! But of course Ripp won. ^_^ And he looks so cute at the barre.

Hah, I love smustling sims. Poor Johnny looks so sad that he lost. Better luck next time, Johnny.
It's no surprise to me that Ripp won, really. I mean,look at all the moves he's learned, and I'm not necessarily talking dance moves here, but I'm sure they helped out.

Ha ha! Is it just me or does some parts of the Smustle remind others of the Monster Mash?

EEEK! Ripp doing ballet makes me all kinds of giddy for some reason. ;)
