The Borden OWBC [COMPLETED August 22, 2018]

[simsterlyrock]

I decided to start a new OWBC because my previous one was in a 'hood that had a LOT of Sims and I was going kind of crazy trying to play all of them. So this time I'm going to play just this one family and not touch the spares. Hopefully this will help me to finish the challenge!

I've got another update today! Updates will probably be out fairly often because I'm really liking this family and I just want to keep playing them, which is a good sign!

Oooh you're starting a new OWBC! I might try this one after I finish the Baby Boom. Haven't decided yet.

It's super fun, and you should totally do it.


Also, HEIR POLL. Help me choose who should take over next generation.

[Rawla]

Maybe I will. For your heir vote, I voted for

Spoiler:

Orik. I love his goofy picture. And who doesn't love spies. xD

Spoiler:

I love all the kids, but Orik is secretly my favorite, so I'm hoping that he wins. He's just so cute, and I don't often have Sims in the intelligence career, so it would be super fun to have a "spy" in the family.

New update tonight!

And remember that you can keep voting for the heir here. I'll keep it up for a few more days. Although there's a very clear winner right now, so I might just call it.

Thanks! I'm feeling really good about this one, so I think this will end up being my first completed OWBC.

So as of right now, my game is being a total butt and keeps crashing on me. I repaired the game through Origin, I took out my CC, and I even uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing worked. So until I can figure out what the problem is or get a new computer (which I can’t afford right now) all of my stuff is on hiatus. I’ll still be here liking stuff and posting occasional screenshots from my Xbox video games, but I can’t play Sims 2 right now.

[simsterlyrock]

I have another update today! Luckily I was able to get my game to load, so hopefully I won't have any more problems with it.

Spoiler:

sometimes the sims can be so inconsiderate with this vampire unfriendly work schedules. i also break things and exit the house hoping nobody will notice.

I'm all caught up! I'm glad your game cooperated and you were able to play. I hope it stays working because I love this family.
