Well I decided I would get started on the chapter, sometimes for me getting started is the hardest part.
So I got everyone on the challenge lot seated. (And it is a huge amount of sims) nearly all the simselves and Mobacy family, as well as those five prisoners who are living on the lot.
I got the first shot set up and thought oops I haven't opened FRAPS. So I go to do that and click back on the game, the hour glass turns as the screen goes blue as normal- then it went black. It turned itself off with no warning, no crashing note, nothing. I'm guessing it took too much for the game to 'come back' after being put down to open the FRAPS? Too many sims? I wish I had thought to open FRAPS first! It took ages to get all those sims there, especially with the 'more' key acting up from there very first use of it.
I only saved at the half way point, although I'm not Sure saving keeps those summoned sims there, maybe the invited ones though? Some I invited by phone to get away from the 'more' tab on the summoning statue. >sigh< It's so depressing. 
Well thats it for today, I'm not waiting for all that to load again tonight. I'll try again tomorrow, although I'm thinking I might lesson the number of simselves there and swap people around for the different scenes.
The questions for those of you on this board at least, it seems pointless to ask at SWG as no one is there.
1.Who did I ask to be in the simself chase? I decided as Jessie isn't around at the moment to swap her for NIng. So I have Nicole, Dez, Danielle, Ning, Amylu and Shadey. That's who I think it is. If I get someone wrong I hope they don't kill me.
Either from excluded or from being included!
2. If I do lighten the load of simselves on the lot would you rather sit in on the simself chase through the maze, the light up brain game or the roulette. I may be able to do the brain game and roulette on the same shoot though.

So which contest would simTina rather see herself at? I will try it again with all of them as I did want all the seats to be full, but if it crashes again. I'm going to whittle it down. There were over 50 sims on the lot.
