Season 1: End of Round

End of Round 1

Well the end of round 1 has come.  It was an interesting beginning round.  Rolling 5 families and none of them really "normal" families made it interesting.  I don't know how many of the CAS elder LTW's I will try for, we will see how everyone does over this next round.

I have noticed there is a major difference between the number of girls vs boys in this hood.  CAS elders add a lot of women, but there are only 2 who may be able to add to the population.  One of those is Tess and she is already married with 3 kids.  So we will be bringing in lots of townie girls more than likely.  Time will tell.

So far, just for fun here are some general facts about the hood:

Female/Male make up of hood:
Female Sims Alive: 7
Female Sims Ever: 7
Male Sims Alive: 10
Male Sims Ever: 10

Aspiration Count

Pleasure Sims to Date: 3

Season 1: The Mimoza Family

Mimoza Family
Bob Mimoza: Male Adult | Popularity | Aries | Have 20 Simultaneous Pet Best Friends
Tess Mimoza: Female Adult | Popularity | Leo | Become The Law
Todd Mimoza: Male Adult | Knowledge | Taurus | Become Criminal Mastermind
Brennan Mimoza: Male Toddler | Gemini
Frankie Mimoza: Male Toddler | Scorpio
Marvin Mimoza: Male Toddler | Leo

We have come to the final house of round 1.  This is also the first house that has adults who are raising their own kids.  This is also one of the more complicated houses with 3 adults and 3 toddlers.  They move into what looks like a nice 3 bedroom house.


This is Bob Mimoza.  He is Todd's brother and is here to help Tess and Todd with the triplets.


This is Todd Mimoza.  He is the father of the triplets and husband to Tess.


Here is Tess.  She was not really ready to be a mother of three....not that I'm sure anyone ever is.


Tess is holding Frankie Mimoza.  He has blue eyes like his mom.


 Here is a look at Brennan.  He also has blue eyes like his mom.  He also has her coloring more than Frankie.


Finally uncle Bob is holding little Marvin.  He has brown eyes like his dad and uncle.


This is a look at one of the last peaceful moments for the next few days.  The parents and uncle sit down and manage to teach all three kids to talk.  Then the layout of the house shows it's MAJOR flaws and we have toddlers everywhere, bottles everyone because they get blocked trying to get them to the toddlers, it's a mess.


I went in and re-did the internal part of the house with the little money they had left and made it better without wiping them out.  Tess and Todd spend the next morning talking about the kids.


Bob teaching one of the toddlers to walk.  Todd also managed to teach one to walk.  So all three talk and 2 walk, but no one ever gets potty trained or learns the nursery rhyme.  I don't even have any other pictures of the triplets at toddler age.  It was so hectic.


In the middle of being taught to walk Marvin grows up.  He does grow up well amazingly enough.


This is a pictures of Frankie right after he grows up.


In the exact same PJ's is Brennan.  I made note of hair styles so I could TRY and tell them apart.  Of course their skin tones are also different, but I wasn't looking that closely. None of the adults are happy, they have no fun and are tired and hungry, but everyone is alive.  Both Tess and Bob got jobs in the Law career, Todd hasn't found a job yet, so he stayed home and tried to manage the kids.


Dad and the kids have breakfast after everyone else leaves for work the next morning.  It's Friday and the only day the kids will go to school this week.


When the kids get home Todd teaches someone to study...not sure which.


Once Tess and Bob come home they help the other boys to study.  Tess helps Marvin it looks like, and Bob is helping Brennan.  That means it's Frankie above learning to study.


Saturday things are really looking up.  Everyone had a good night sleep, we had a good meal and fun is had all the way around.  So off to the lake we go.  We pick the one with swings for the boys if they want.


Instead everyone mostly watches people play chess.  Bob does meet a nice girl, the blonde below.  I don't remember her name, but they have 2-bolt attraction.  Maybe a match.


Tess is pretty stuck on herself and does stuff like this all the time.  The look on her face is either about a hair out of place, or the fact her brother-in-law is looking at her.  Not sure which. :)


Todd goes to make a meal and realizes they are out of food.  Not a big shock with as much as everyone was eating.  So he heads to the plaza in Roseview Village.


Among other things they have a nice grocery store.  They also have a salon, book store, pet store, bowling alley, restaurant and other things.


The rest of Saturday is spent like this.  Kids playing chess, and a much needed date for Tess and Todd.


Bob on the phone with the blonde and more studying in the back.


This round was kind of a mess at the beginning but got better when the triplets became children.  They still have very little money, but have started added some art and things to the house.

Season 1: The Yerazig Family

Yerazig Family
Elyse Yerazig: Female Elder | Pleasure | Cancer | Have 50 Dream Dates
Joyce Yerazig: Female Elder | Romance | Aquarius | WooHoo with 20 Different Sims
Zaria Yerazig: Female Toddler | Virgo

We getting close to the end of round 1.  We are now at the Yerazig house which is another house made up of mostly elders.  Elyse and her sister Joyce moved into this small 2 bedroom house and are raising Joyce's granddaughter Zaria.


Here is Joyce.  She is a fun loving Romance sim.  Her LTW is not likely going to happen, but we will try and make her as happy as possible.


Elyse is the more responsible one, although she is a Pleasure sim so it's not much more responsible.  Still her LTW is also not likely unless she finds someone to move in with her.


Finally we have cute little Zaria.  Her mother took after her mom (Joyce) and romanced her way through many sims.  Along the way she had Zaria.  Now her mom is gone and she is left with her grandma and great aunt.


First thing that happens is Elyse teaches Zaria how to talk.  I believe her first word was bottle.  Smart kid.


Since Joyce is a Romance sim and wanting to love many sims we take her to one of the community lots in Roseview Village.  I didn't write down what the name was, but I think it's Rose Cafe or something like that.


There she meets Abhijeet, I can't remember his last name.  They are soon crushing on each other.  This is good, if she can get them this quickly maybe she has a chance.


Joyce and Elyse take turns doing toddler skills.  Joyce gets to teach little Zaria how to walk.


Then she has Abhijeet come over.  They are still not in love, so no WooHoo option yet, but she continues to work on him.


Elyse meanwhile teaches Zaria the nursery rhyme.  They are also working on potty training although it's a slow process without any smart milk.  So far we don't have enough points to get it though.


It's time for Zaria's birthday.  I am pretty sure she learned all toddler skills,  Joyce invites over everyone she knows, and many of them come.  Two guests get into a fight however, and the first with the black hair is asked to leave so there is no more drama.


Great aunt Elyse gets to bring Zaria to the cake.  She grows up great, in platinum mood due to a fun nursery singing time with Elyse right before the cake.


Meanwhile, Joyce has her first conquest as Abhijeet joins her in bed.  They have a good time.


Zaria is all grown up into a child now, and heads out to school on Friday.  It's the only school day she will get this week.


Zaria likes her easel and spends a lot of time painting at it.  She completed one painting already.


Someone Joyce met at the party, Charlie Tang, is invited over and they are soon in love as well.  They head into the bed room and Charlie becomes notch number 2 for Joyce. (Technically she clearly had done this before since she has a granddaughter, but that's just a technicality.) :)


Joyce was a bit busy when Zaria wanted some homework help so Elyse helped her out by teaching her to study.  Zaria is all ready for school on Monday now.


The next morning they all have breakfast together for the first time.  Everyone in this house is actually doing quite well.  Elyse only wishes she could find a guy she's attracted to.  Hopefully we can focus more on that next round.


After breakfast they head over to the other lake in Clovercrest.  This one is Shamrock Lake I believe.


It's a pretty lake and has swings that Zaria could play on.  She had a lot of fun, and the sisters talked to people.


Thus brings the fall to a close for the Yerazig house.  They were mostly low maintenance besides the toddler needs early on.

Season 1: The Ramiel Family

Ramiel Family
Darin Ramiel: Male Teen | Knowledge | Capricorn | Become Criminal Mastermind

We have come to our second single sim family, who also happens to be a teen.  Like Tanner Svajone (who I didn't show the house of) Darin Ramiel moved into the little starter house.


Here is Darin, although he's getting hugged by a welcome wagon townie.  I think he is a pretty handsome boy.


As Darin is a Knowledge sim, one of the only in Clovercrest he spends most of the week doing homework and studying cooking.  We do find out that Cuisine is his preferred hobby.


On Friday Darin finally decides he ready to invite the headmaster over.  He has wanted to get into Private School the whole time, but needed some cooking skills since we won't be impressing him much with the house.


After a quick tour, which the headmaster wasn't overly impressed with Darin made Spaghetti.  During the meal he tries to talk about school, but figures out the headmaster is interested in food, just like Darin.


After dinner, and some schmoozing on Darin's part, they actually have the option to hang out, and this hangout session pushes them over the score and Darin gets accepted.


With the headmaster visit out of the way Darin wants to head out so we go to Clovercrest Lake. Besides, it's Saturday and that is go to the lake day.  There is another lake in town, but this one is a block or two from all of the houses so far.


There he admires the statue for quite a while and I decide to intervene and have his start fishing.


Darin has very good luck with finishing and catches a couple of fish before making some hamburgers and heading home.


That brings the fall to a close for the Ramiel family.  He is doing prett well, getting into private school, and keeping his grades up.
