This is mostly for [personal profile] madame_ugly, who demanded a closeup of Jaxy's calendar (boy, are you ever demanding *snicker*).






Those short shorts are pretty hot. I like that the chick seems to be tinkering with that that old piece of junk (or at least pretending to), instead of just posing on the hood of a car.

Jaxy is autonomously viewing the calendar in this shot, which she does frequently. Each time, she claps her hands in approval. I find it so weird when sims do things like that to stay in character.

The calendar is part of the Days of the Week - Calendar Pack by Fantasyrogue on MTS2. Other themes include cute toddlers, sim pets, cars, and nature. The text is in simlish too, which is a bonus. My only complaint is that the colours are a little bright. The white of this calendar is nearly blinding, and it sticks out from its surroundings a little.

 I also mentioned making a Gunnar icon. I took a photo to showcase his handsome profile. What do you think?




Nice. He really does have NO CHIN.

I should feel bad for picking on poor Gunnar, but I don't, really.

Gunnar did move out, because he graduated, making him the first LFT student to move out of that campus where time stands still, or close to it. I know you want to know what you transitioned into, so here it is...




*cue laugher*

Oh, Kitchen and Bath, how you have enriched my game.

He's the one who is painting all the Grilled Cheese paintings, by the way. I gave him that as a secondary aspiration, in an attempt to make him more appealing to play, and the paintings were a novelty, so it sort of worked.



I was hoping to post part 3 tonight, but I'm not quite happy with all of the pics, and I'm dead tired. I'll catch up on my comments and post the final section of chapter 24 tomorrow evening.

Okay, deal. I haven't even gone into that hood yet. There might even be some good genetics there.

So, should we play this generation by generation? We could square off and see who wins each round. That would be fun.

Also, should we go with set genetic donors, or keep it open? Your call.

"I haven't even gone into that hood yet. There might even be some good genetics there." Two words: Rick Contrary. I could imagine that teen would make some really ugly kids!

OOH OOH!!! And the Joque wife (don't remember her name.) She is so manly looking. Her daughter Violet however, is extremely pretty. Maxis DEFINITELY created her in body shop and not by actually breeding the mother and father.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll have to go in there to take a look.

Oh, I love the name Violet! I named a very special sim Violet in the very first game I played. She was the daughter of Mortimer Goth and a CAS sim.

You're welcome! But um, now that I have decided I'm going to do this also... I kind of wish I kept those suggestions to myself. Oh well, the results will vary! :P

I like generation by generation. Five generations only. Founder is Gunnar. Have to use (by the end of the challenge): Malcolm, Frances, 2 others of your choice (need not be clones but can be--clones of maxis stock only, no "bred in game" sims).

No aliens as heir (but alien spawn are encouraged--but having them as an heir kind of defeats the purpose of the whole mashup idea).

Only rule: have to show pics of ALL spawn, not JUST the heir (because I do love some photo spam).

Anything else?

Okay this challenge sounds like FUN. I might have to partake as well, in between shooting scenes for stories, lol!

We can cheat, right? Like cheating the ages up some?

But you know what? I may not want to... sometimes it's fun just to play and see what happens! :P

My hubby does that masturbation motion a lot... only he ends it by saying, "Splut." hee hee hee.

Who do we breed Gunnar with first? A CAS? Or just anyone?

We should start a separate thread somewhere for this, with the rules and everything! WOOHOO! BREEDING CHALLENGE AND MINI UGLACY!!!

**is excited**

I think we should open this up to anyone who wants to join in, if Madame is cool with that.

Yeah, aging cheats is fine. We don't need to play it all through.

"Splut" *snicker* Very nice. My SO makes a sound "that all girls hate" as the sound effects. Just imagine a sort of squishy sound to describe the action. Ewwww! (He's right. Even I sort of hate that sound, though it is funny. It's annoying.)

All of the breeding sims must be playable Maxis characters or their clones. We can't allow CAS sims for this challenge (though it would be fun in its own way), since it's the quest for the ultimate in Maxis ugly.

Maybe I'll make a post for the unbeautifulsims community. Are there many members there? It hasn't been extremely active lately, but this would be perfect for that comm.

You want to open this to other challengers? That sounds like fun.

Yeah, I like that set-up. Gunnar is founder, and then we can go in any order from there. Two wild cards to prove how clever you are. I also say "no townies". It should be sims in premade lots or in the bin - clones or otherwise. How does that sound?

I'm wondering about Frances... he offers some of the same weak-chinned goodness that Gunnar does, just not as severe. Though, he does have that nose... yeah, he stays.

I agree about the alien thing. It will water down the traits we're trying to preserve. And yes to showing all spawn. Pic spam encouraged.

We could do it round by round, giving a week or so between installments. Is two weeks enough time? Then we can post our results and maybe do a group post on the unbeautifulsims community with a poll to determine the winner? We need some central post for people to vote on. The voting would be fun, I think.

Okay, that's it. I'm in. Stupid me JUST realized that if I just add an LFT into Desiderata Valley there will already be clones of them so I don't have to worry about all of that. And Frances WILL be used! I already have sims in mind that will be great candidates for ugly over there. :P

Sweet. I think it will be great to have a small group doing this. It will be a little like a mini GUCCI challenge.

I need to tour the Maxis hoods for hidden ugly now. I have some good ideas too.

Plant your eyeball in Veronaville. There are some fugtastic ladies there.

I say yeah, throw open the doors to all comers. (I've even started penning a post on my journal, I'll put it under the storytellers mod lock for now until we get it hammered out).

I like "no townies" too. Extend it to NPC's, too? So just "maxis house and bin sims"?

I like Frances but could take him or leave him. Your call.

So we're going to limit the sperm/womb donors to one per generation. But what about number of potential heirs? Want to limit or not?

I say this whole thing could be done in one month, max. So it'll begin June 1 (which is a Sunday) and end July 4-ish.

I'm cool with the voting thing and all that, too.
