That's a hat that certainly stays on well enough! Maybe it will be a new trend.

Bwhahahahaha!! That statue, omg! Hilarious.

This was a great choice for this Dare. I'm really wanting to do it too... but I can't think of a whole family I dislike enough, lol! I mean there's ones I haven't played, but that's not really the same. And I really don't like Ophelia Nigmos at all (okay I like her in other people's games)... but I love love LOVE Olive Spectre, so that leaves that out? Maybe? I don't know!

Anyway this is great!!

Jic, You can pick just one sim of a household/family too. It doesn't matter if other sims are included in whatever you wish to do, as long as you focus in that one sim. :)

It was easy enough for me to come up with a premade family that I didn't like. In some strange way, I looked forward to playing the Newsons again. As for the Dare itself, like Aledstrange said, I'm sure you'll be able to do just one sim. I chose to do the entire household, because I felt the big reason why I disliked them is because if you play the family as Maxis intended, they just weren't that fun. I don't mind them individually.

Thank you. I don't know if I've changed my mind about this family yet, but that's what challenges are all about. :)

aww This is so sweet! I'm glad you picked this family, we don't see much of them.
Poor Ginger, tho, but I'm sure it'll get easy as they grow. :)

Yes, when the Georgia and Garret grew up, things did get a little easier. I still have to work on their moods. Their fun is constantly down and their aspirations are still in the red. I've been trying to keep their motives up, I've had no time to take care of their wants.

I've totally had that glitch before, in an apartment (the apartment life duplex). It cracks me up, I just decided the kid was a bit if a odd one. Its always that pterodactyl. I like your Newsons. I find them so hard to play, I normally make Ginger stay home until the toddlers grow up but I always use one maxmotives on them or the social worker would have to come for sure.

I played the apartment duplex too! I wonder if I'll have to move them out. Oh well, after looking it up, I don't mind the glitch if it's just cosmetic and not a sign of impending doom for my game.

I only played for a sim week. I had Ginger stay home one day, and Garret stay home the next. Somehow, I've managed to get them to do some of their homework. I'm pretty happy that I managed to get by without using any kinds of cheats. Week 2 will be tricky too. They're running out of money and its time that Gavin gets that job.
