Re: Let's Build It Chat
Well... all my ideas are not working out. I'm going to have to do something... ordinary? Or out-of-the-ordinnaarry. Lol!
I was thinking about a Stay-Cation... but then couldn't find the CC to make it.
Oh, well... I've got time.

Re: Let's Build It Chat
I'm also going to give this round a try (just posting here to hold myself accountable ). I absolutely love the theme! No idea what I'll make, though...

Re: Let's Build It! [Voting - Round 21]
Hi
I wouldn't say it makes voting more fair. It just removes the names. I would guess if anyone wanted to they could still have friends vote for theirs. But I believe people will vote for the ones they like as I believe they did before this one. I actually want to vote for the ones who don't have any votes- it makes me feel better since they did work hard on it. So, it does nothing for my votes because I can vote how I like.
Plus, telling me not to vote for myself is ... well, not really silly but it's close (no Disrespect intended), I would if I wanted because I believe I deserve it (even if it were in my own mind, I think I'm worth my own vote or why would I even offer up a build?) It only makes me believe YOU believe that if I got a vote it must be because I have friends here (which I'm not saying is the situation), which I hardly know anyone and have never chatted with anyone. So, it feels a little insulting. -in all honesty which I do realize no one wants to here my honesty.

Voted!
I think the whole anonymous thing is a cool, different idea to spice it up a bit.

Re: Let's Build It! [Voting - Round 21]
And Please don't think my view is personal at anyone or that I'm angry or that I dislike things. I'm fine with it all, just, well, you asked.
Re: Let's Build It! [Voting - Round 21]
I think that either way is fine. I don't have a preference.

Moving this now makes my comments Really looks out of place, off Topic, and kinda crazy mad.

Re: Let's Build It Chat
Isn't the same message about voting for who really deserves it and not just friends always on the build it challenge vote page?
Anyway, I really liked the anonymous thing. I would like to say that the person whose building it is doesn't influence my voting, but it kind of does. Not that I'm voting for friends, but it is more little things, like 'this person has won this before, so I'll vote for this person who hasn't' kind of thing. Not having the names helps remove my little biases, so I like it. As a suggestion, it might be nice to have the name of each place used on the vote screen to make voting easier than having to make sure I'm voting for the right number.

Re: Let's Build It Chat
Thanks so much everyone for voicing your thoughts!
I've made a poll where you can go vote and choose if the next round should be anon, AND also pick out next round's theme!

Re: Let's Build It Chat
You know, the Maxis people who decided Sims 2 wasn't worth continuing to support really should check out some of these entries. I think at least half of Event #21 were Sims 2, and they are all GORGEOUS!
Seriously, EAxis has a lot for which to answer.
I'm sorry I missed voting for #21. I was offline for a long time, and came back too late for that. But then again, I loved them all so much. I have no idea which one I would have chosen, anyway.

EA moved on, they don't look back. It's all about Sims 3 and 4 now, their new babies.

Re: Let's Build It Chat
Hmm, if the entries are supposed to be anonymous, then the characters have to be unknown, which means NEW NEIGHBORHOODS! WOOOT!
Actually, I already started a new neighborhood, and that's where my last entry came from. But now I know I need to have a wedding in my new neighborhood, before the first week of July. Yay!

Re: Let's Build It Chat
Aww, thanks for voting for me, guys! All the entries were so lovely. Congrats to my co-winner Heather too!
I'm pretty excited about the wedding theme as well. My life has been super busy for the past few weeks, but hopefully I'll have some free time to play around with my game and come up with something cool.
