The Fancy Apocalypse - Completed

Postby MaxiBuckle on April 14th, 2007, 2:11 pm

I have completed the Apocalypse Challenge with the Pets restrictions. I wanted to document the story because I enjoy reading about other people's challenges.

My writing style is very different from what I have seen so far. It is very brief, sort of at a glance type reading.

I do get attached to my Sims and I hope you can begin to feel a bit of affection for them through their story:

Introduction

Chapter 2

Chapter 3

Chapter 4

Chapter 5

Chapter 6

Chapter 7

Oh, oh oh, what have we here? An already completed apocalypse challenge! And a really good one, too ! :P

I like your writing style. Sometimes I'd wished for a bit more (...), but you found a really good balance between an interesting story and K.I.S.S. (No, not the band *rock* , but: K-eep I-t S-hort and S-imple, so nobody gets bored...).
Nemo: Let's give ourselves up when we get out of here, eh, Flip?
Flip: Let's get out first! Whoever named this place Befuddle Hall knew his business! I am certainly befuddled.

Thank you for your kind review, Little Nemo.

I didn't want it to be boring, like you say, but I agree that I can use improvement fleshing out the plot and characters.

Cel, may I have an official Boolprop Apocalypse medal, please?

Well, since it's only you and me here, I can tell you the truth:

The Pets restrictions were tough until I installed the Seasons expansion pack. The autumn skill building bonus made everything tons easier, and the juicer's strawberry lemon juice, pepper punch, egglant juice, and vegetable cocktail packed plenty of punch.

I'd say the hardest was when I had three adults, 2 sets of twins and two cats on board, just before I installed Seasons.

I loved it! Short, and to the point. Sadly, I take millions of pics and have to caption all of them. Well done, MaxiBuckle!

Thank you for reading and I'm glad you enjoyed the Fancy's story. I loved playing them.

I was thinking that eventually I'd play through their lives and gift their platinum graves to the home lot, but if Pinstar keeps making new challenges, I may never get to it!

Thank you to jcowlover and Bree! It's nice when folks have a nice word for the Fancys. They are special because they were my first story ever.

See you both around! :)
