Thanks, I got pictures to work on my blog. And wow, do my pictures look nice when they aren’t crunched to death!

Computer woes, Tumblr apocalypse and all that jazz
moudschegiebchn said: Things always seem to break when you at least need it. A broken graphic card while working on your Bachelorarbeit – the horror. D: I hope you can get your PC up and running again soon. :3
Eh, it works for now. But I still want a graphics card that can handle my high-quality snow…
meetmetotheriver said: Not just you. A quarter of my posts were flagged too, most of them completely innocent and only depicting normal TS2 gameplay. Good work, Tumblr. Idiots.
Ugh. How unnecessary. It’s not just that they completely overdid it to solve a problem they ignored for years- the software they’re using isn’t even working properly…
eulaliasims said: As far as I know, there’s no quick way to see all your posts that’ve been flagged. I would love to be proved wrong on this one, as I’m on page 35 of my blog now and still finding flagged posts. 😐
Ugh. UGH. UGH!!!
simper-fi said: I only had like 5 sensitive posts in the first half of my blog, but once I got to more recent things they’re popping up like mad 
I assume they have doubled down on the newer posts because…? But I’m seeing a similar pattern in my posts. For some reason, it really hated my Pleasantview playthrough.
eulaliasims said: lmao that’s exactly why I’m requesting reviews on mine too. Like… I don’t know if the people actually doing the reviews have anything to do with the policy change (probably not?), but I kinda hope this points out how ridiculous it is.
thelonelysimsclub said: This is exactly why I’m reviewing mine too, because I’m petty.
*high five*
Although I’m not putting to much hope into this. Tumblr has proven itself to be… idiotic about such things.

moudschegiebchn said: Yay for the house! Though I’m sorry to hear that about your PC. Are you getting a new one or just a new graphic card? Not that graphics card alone are expensive enough~
I’m going to upgrade. Keep the old PC and switch out whatever needs to be switched. Although I’m on a budget, so depending on what else needs to be replaced, I may or may not get a new graphics card. I currently play on an old 2008 gaming graphics card which the friend that repaired my PC (my old graphics card broke while I was writing my “Bachelorarbeit”- which was extremely inconvenient!). It’s fine but doesn’t play nice with my more CC heavy save- hence why I’m currently playing a low CC game just for fun.

moudschegiebchn said: Fingers crossed!
sushigal007 said: Good luck!
Thanks. It was a downloaded lot. I bulldozed it and rebuilt it from scratch. It’s working now (and I no longer get weird stares from my Sims).
moudschegiebchn said: That sucks. 
Are you sure all your drivers are up-to-date? My old PC once went bersek due to over 20 drivers I haven’t updated. *chrm*
Yeah, they’re all up to date. I think it’s just age. I mean, it’s now 4 years old (and my original graphics card already croaked). The Windows installation has been slightly buggy since last year, so that’s probably the issue. Thank god Win7 is not that expensive.

holleyberry said: How did you get sims to stay in the hot tub while others were woohooing?
I don’t know. They just… refused to leave. Well, at least they got a show out of it.

Managed to drag myself out of my bed, so have some replies (sorry if I miss some).

Classic Cyd indeed. That guy is… I love him.

Yup.
alienpod said: *__*
didilysims said: That’s cool! I love finding old stuff like that. I’m impressed at how many houses you managed to fit so close together. It looks like a thriving neighbourhood! Though the lack of plumbbobs is conspicuous… 😛
That’s just my mod, though! I would guess that about 2/3 of the residential houses are inhabited. And it was a thriving neighbourhood. I played it a lot!
holleyberry said: Damn it, Don.
But isn’t that how we know and love him? (Kidding.)
primaverasims said: oh Cass 😥
Confession: I’m a mean Simmer and locked her fear. But seeing how hard she took it almost broke my heart.
meetmetotheriver said: Hope you feel better soon!
twofee said: ouch! heal well and feel better!
Thank you for your well-wishes. Somehow managed to catch a nasty cold on top of it, but I’m slowly getting there.
randozaz said: I liked the images of them both are loving.
They are an adorable couple! Three-bolters, even.
meetmetotheriver said: Yep.
Ah! The pop-up you get when your Sim eats a soup confused me a bit. Thanks for clearing it up!
randozaz said: Daniel is all Casanova ok no
Funny thing: he’s a very conflicted Sim in my game. He loves his wife (and continuously rolls wants about her), but also rolls “typical” Romance Sim wants.
randozaz said: Hey in my game, Lilith plays the guitar.
Hah! Now we only have to find a Lilith that plays the drums and we have a band!

drewinthesky said: Nevermind, I just found out there’s no jewerly bin in bodyshop 😦
Yeah, that would’ve been my next question, if someone ever enabled it for bodyshop and the mirror in-game. Thanks for trying to look into it!
I figured that the jewellery feature was a bit… complicated (broken?).
primaverasims said: I think you can enable them for teens through simPE by changing the age string. It’s really stupid that EA did this
Hm, I’ll have to look into it. I can’t actually do much in SimPE, but this I might be able to do.
didilysims said: Ha ha.
This wedding was such a trainwreck… We’ll see whether I’ll share it on this Tumblr (I played it on my bf’s PC since my own PC is still acting up and I don’t have a lot of time to prepare posts when I’m at his place).
didilysims said: This is the cartoon movie? He was a fairly standard over-the-top cartoon villain, so not really, but kind of? Depressed and violent I think match the English version. Not sure about the hippie…but it’s been many years since I’ve seen it. 😛
Yeah, he (and his animator’s- holy plumbbob, the dude has two spines!) has some issues. They did a weird thing with the synchronisation where they have him talk with weird voice cracks which, coupled with the over the topness of the animation, makes him seem more than a little off (they also did a bunch of things with his villain song (as discussed in an earlier reply). He’s also voiced by the guy that voices Sebastian in the Little Mermaid, which doesn’t help his case (nothing against the voice actor, he’s great, but once I figured it out, I could not take the character seriously, especially since both characters sounded very similar when singing).
holleyberry said: *gets popcorn*
This is bound to end in a catastrophy.

historicalsimslife said: I always found him more gross than outright scary. The real Rasputin on the other hand was definitely frightening as well.
Yeah, he is definitely gross, but then again, he is a decaying corpse. I actually figured out what put me off the synchronisation: he is voiced by the guy who voices Sebastian the crab (?) in the German version of the Little Mermaid. Which makes “In the Dark of the Night” unintentionally funny (they also changed the background music, which by all means make it sound like a depressed hippie singing with beetles). I knew I knew the voice actor!
holleyberry said: Haha! I know the feeling Kaylynn.
I’m a pretty decent cook and even I burn pancakes. A lot.
girzish said: Relatable.
High expectations for Pleasantview…
didilysims said: Yay Sophie!
Yep, she is now a fully playable character! Whoooo!

sunnyday-rae said: I LOVE belladonna cove!! Haven’t played much of strangetown but I should!
It looks promising. Unfortunately, my PC has been acting up (I’m pretty sure it’s the new graphics card) lately and does not mesh well with Belladonna (or Middleground for that matter. Strangetown works, weirdly enough).
didilysims said: Wow. It blows my mind that people can be so rude. Perfect response though. 😀
Eh, who does that sort of thing as some sort of power play has to deal with the consequences. Not even sorry.
katatty-main said: my favourite outcome is cassandra leaving HIM at the altar, but yeah, none of the optinos are fantastic
Oh yes! I remember meetme did this once and it was glorious. Hard to achieve in-game with the setup we got, unfortunately.
It’s just a very disappointing scenario that… kind of leads nowhere. Also, Cassandra really lacks wedding options (her age).
jaydesims said: Maybe pair Cassandra with Mary-Sue? 😛
Would be an idea, but for that, she would have to catch Daniel cheating first (and he’s been a doting husband in that save).
reblogged this
and added:
What’s that symbol on top of Alexander’s head? Marriage cancelled? LOL Don is the absolute worst
It’s a memory of his sister being left at the altar, I think.

It got so cold overnight that my PC made a lot of worrying noises this morning while trying to warm itself up. It’s only September, chill!
strangetomato said: She said it first, so I think she more than deserved it.
*shrugs* I just don’t care about people trying to talk me down to make themselves feel better (let’s be serious, that was 100% a power move) anymore. I think I stopped giving a fuck about what people I don’t care about think of me 10 years ago- which was good because I was known all over the place in high school.
holleyberry said: *sniff* It’s so sad the founders are all aging into elders 😦
God, yes. I tried to get them all to age up while in platinum so that they’ll be around for a long time, but still. Seeing them all grey and hunched over…
