She may as well go all the way start thinking she's Joan Jet..

I am so cracking up over here and dh is looking at me strangely You left yourself open now Tina! Joan Jet jokes here I come!

Nicole ;D Thanks so much! I'll be over to S2WG shortly.

[Tina ☺]

Go for it, Jo! It just may well be some of your most hilarious moments yet! ;D

[gldkelly]

Joan Jett!

Can't emagine Jo, with Joan Jett!

It was OK.

[joandsarah]

OK? *sigh* No laughs at all? Oh well I guess I can't always do great chapters. I'm thinking you and Tina didn't like this chapter so much then. Maybe I'm loosing my mojo again.

My hubby had Joan Jett as his mobile phone ring. Because no she isn't exactly what I listen too.

[Tina ☺]

Oh no Jo... I did enjoy the chapter. It wasn't quite as funny as the last one, but it WAS good!

[joandsarah]

Well I'm glad you still liked it Tina. It's strange, but it seems to be the chapters I'm worried over more that seem to be liked more Chapter 4 I was more worried about.

So long as it wasn't boring, because that is my worst fear for my chapters. Being a challenge I need to include some things like showing the badges, servos etc to show I did do them. I hope to get the flamingo badge at the end of it. But showing it isn't exactly thrilling or funny stuff.

[Tina ☺]

Well it definitely wasn't boring. So you can stop worrying about that. That is also my biggest fear when writing a chapter, wondering if people will find it boring.

[jillyson]

Do you get challenge points based on the ugliness of that froglet Kali? WOW she's hard to look at! Lol! I definitely got the most laughs from her part in this chapter! I don't know what the criteria is for the "bad apple" part of the challenge, but Kali sure seems like a bad apple herself - not sweet Opal! Can you clarify how a bad apple is determined for us non-boolpropers?

[joandsarah]

Copy paste from BP

One Bad Apple (10 Points)
Every generation one of your children will just plain be a bad apple. You get to choose which child it is at birth. It may not be a PlantSim baby. Once chosen you cannot change it. A bad apple cannot be controlled until adulthood. If you select them their aspiration display/needs/etc must be completely collapsed. You may not view their wants and fears, you may not view their needs, you may not view anything that you cannot already see with all of the interface fully collapsed. As a toddler, child and teen you cannot control them at all. (Their aspiration will most likely decay and when they are a teen they will truly be a bad apple!) The only way you may have a sibling do their homework for them is if they have, at minimum, a 50 daily relationship. You may not send them to college until you get the two day pop up. If they go they must abide by Simself rules (this does not include being able to see their wants and needs, etc, those must still remain hidden to you). They may then be placed on academic probation by the first semester and be expelled on the second, they may not drop out, they must be expelled. You also can attempt to play them through college without viewing their academic standing, wants, needs, etc if you wish. Keep in mind you will need to prep them with skills before they go to college, in that case. Otherwise they won't do very well for very long no matter how many classes they go to! Once an adult they must continue on as they did in college by Simself rules as before stated, at this point you may also just move them out and then play them as you wish. Having the Bad Apple be taken by a social worker or die before reaching adulthood causes you to lose this mini-challenge. You may purchase aspiration rewards and lifetime rewards that your Bad Apple has rightfully earned. You may also view their LTW. BUT, you may only do those three things once they are in college and not before. end copy paste

So now she is an adult I can give her 8 commands per 24 sim hours but not view her needs. As heir she must have 3 pregnancies.

[holleyberry]

WOW! that totally suck for you

edit: Guess you won't be having anymore Heir Polls huh?

[joandsarah]

Lol I have to have heir polls that is in the basic rules for the challenge.
Anyway I wanted Opal to win, I just didn't realize then that I couldn't look at her needs, I thought as an adult I could. I asked and was told otherwise. I'll just have to make her sleep and eat a lot. I'm going to buy them a dance sphere and hopefully Opal will decide to use it as I can see her getting very very fat.

If she dies I will be exiting without saving though! I'm not looking forward to her getting old either. I have her clone in body shop, but I doubt that will be the same. I may resurrect her, age her back down. That works doesn't it?

[Tina ☺]

Sure that would work. But Jo... you can always write down her exact stats and then give those back to her if you clone her. You can even make her interests, etc the same in SimPE.

Also if she is able to meditate, it works wonders during pregnancy. Her stats will never go down as long as she meditates. You can make her meditate the whole time if you want.

[joandsarah]

Can playful sims meditate? I'm thinking it's only more serious ones. Something to look into. Good idea Tina.

[Pixx]

Did I miss a chapter

[joandsarah]

There are five chapters. Then i have 3 posts of pic spam/mini story of her BC up on LJ.

Hey Pixx I was looking for your threads on your legacy and your asylum challenge, there not under exchange stories, or I just couldn't see them. Are you still doing them or am I going to be locked up forever!
