Hello All -

I'm fine with downloading our physical Sim selves - then adding our personality traits/preferences/signs. WE get to supply that information right so that it is accurately us? I guess I'm not so clear on that as I haven't done that before.

Brian wanted to know if he could maybe join as well? Or is it girls only?? I myself have a bit of a problem with his desire to do so because he is by nature - a flirt.

I'm on board though. This will be fun!

Yes, when we did it before we gave our own signs, aspirations, personalities, turn ons/offs, career preferences, etc. I was thinking it would be interesting to add what our interests too, even though that's not as easy to set in the game. When we start an official thread for it, I think we'll probably have a list, like a form you can fill out with all of the important info.

I'm ok, with Brian joining. We could make him or brother, so he wouldn't be able to flirt with us, but that wouldn't work so good for you, Hunter. lol The reason we decided to make our sims siblings the first time was because our group went from all girls to coed. I made a sim of my now husband that I shared. A couple of us had him in the neighborhood, but he wasn't an official member of the household, it was kind of optional. I personally wouldn't have a problem with adding Brian to the household, unless you or anyone else has a problem with it.

September works good for me too. My simself could probably use a makeover too or at the very least a new wardrobe.

September sound fine for me too. I need a little makeover on my selfsim.

Isn´t that the easiest way to download the simmies and then set the personalities in CAS?

I think there has to be some brothers among all these sisters. I´m Ok with Brian joining.

I have ACR in my game, and I know Em does, too, so we definitely need a no flirting option. It's a huge mod, and I really don't want to take it out. However, couldn't we make Brian Hunter's husband? That way they can flirt all they want. Or we could make him a brother - but he and Hunter would never be able to get together. Or we could do like we did with Steve, where he lives in the same neighborhood, but not the same house - but since the project focuses around the Simsib house, then we wouldn't see him as much. It doesn't really matter to me, though, because I'm sure it will be fun no matter how we do it.

You know what I think - I think it would be funny to see if Brian would go for me in game like he has in real life!!! Hey - if he goes for one of you......he does!

I'm cool like that - what do you guys think? As far as he's concerned - I think you guys can decide - if he has his way (in game) he'd probably date us all!

I'm thinkin' if you're wanting Brian to be your love interest, we should move him into a nearby abode, rather than with us (in which case he'd have to be a sibling).

One of the things we should specify, in addition to what Em has said ...

... would be whether we'd like our real life loves/spouses as potential interests.
The way we did it last time (aside from Em's Steve), was create all new snacky bachelors.
It was fun seeing relationships bloom and how the couples inevitably ended up with their soulmates.

Sounds like it's a date for September. We can start the new thread as the time draws near.
Good deal! Old Sugah is lookin' forward to rooming with your Simselves, ladies.

I don't know, Hunter. With Em and I having ACR in our games, sims have more ability to take their romantic lives into their own hands. If sim Brian is left to his own devices, he may very well end up doing more than 'dating' one of more of us. Also, I've noticed that family sims are aggressive, even if they are shy, like me. My simAri acted like quite the ho before ACR was ever even installed, the last time the girls and I did this project. She was flirting and pushing the boundaries quickly, because family sims are in a hurry to do the 'fall in love, get married, have babies' thing. And with ACR installed, they don't necessarily do it in that order!

However, it could be an interesting experiment...

I remember Sugah (I think) had trouble with my Steve having high chemistry with my sisters and that was without ACR. Isn't there something you can set like autonomy levels that might deter Brian from going after the rest of us?

I think the problem I had with Steve and our Simsibs, was that he was attracted to brunettes, if I am
remembering correctly.
Ari, Em, and Brittany Simsib all have brown hair.
Therefore, Steve had triple chem with over half the Simsib household. lol
But I remember he adored Em from the start.
He couldn't get enough of her and pursued her quite seriously, didn't he?

If anyone wants their real life loves to be possible mates for their Simself,
I propose we move them into a house nearby.
Or...
We could make it optional how everyone wants to set that up in their own game.
I'd like to have just the Simsibs living in an abode together, rather than any
possible, future love interests.
Is everyone okay with that?
Shall we leave it up to the individual player?

You know, Em, I completely forgot about the customization settings for ACR. We can use those as a safeguard.

For some reason in my game, SimSteve and SimEm only had one bolt, no matter what I did to try to fix it. I changed turn-ons and turn-offs, and even changed Steve's aspiration, with Em's permission - but he still liked her siblings better.

I remember when SimSam joined us - we couldn't make him a sibling since he joined us later. He and SimAri had triple chem and I couldn't keep them apart! I had to watch them all the time to make sure they didn't make a move on each other while my back was turned! And even after Ari was married and moved out, Sam still called her often.

Nah, I don't need my real life love interest in the game. Any snacky virtual fella will do!

We'll have to all be on the same page for EP's too - because we may not all have the same available turn-ons and turn-offs.

I'm open to any and all of this.

I'm NOT a jealous type and I'm most definitely NOT going to get jealous over Brian's Sim self. IF he should choose to flirt with one of you..........so it shall be.

Pig Male that sometimes comes out of him has told me that we can all be his "harem". I told him I think he smokes crack.

Anyhoo - I'm open to whatever. Seems like it will be a fun project!

I like the idea of keeping it up to the individual player. We don't all have to do it the same way.

I think I'm going to leave SimSteve out of it this time, because it wasn't as much fun knowing who my simself was likely to end up with. I would like to remake him in CAS though, because he's way cuter than his simself would led you to believe.

I used simpe to make SimSam our actual brother, so I never got to see who he had chemistry with in my game. I actually saw him the other day, he came home from work with Gregor, from my Liz Taylor challenge. I kept Jeanette away from him though. lol

So, what eps do we each have? I'm not sure which ep first added the extra turn ons, but I got them with freetime. Are there just two sets of turn ons? Does everyone else have the same ones?

lol Yeah, right!

I myself have University, Seasons, Pets, Open for Business, Nightlife, Free Time and Apartment Life. I also have the H & M Stuff pack and Celebrations.

I have University, Nightlife, Pets, Seasons, and Freetime. It sounds like so far we have NL and FT in common.

I'm not sure why the chemistry was so different in our games. I wonder if we had the personality points slightly different even though the signs were the same.
