‘The Not So Good But You Can’t Complain Ship Stayed On The Alley-Isla-Oh …’

Posted in Uncategorized on September 30, 2021 by themaresnest

Just to show you something one of us is working on, time allowing. As you may have guessed from The Llama … and Moryrie’s ship in Raiders, we like the ships in the game, and think they’re one of the most underrated additions to the game.

It’s especially a pity that there’s so few add on hulls such as the one above for those wanting to sculpt their boats into something more than a poxy ‘houseboat’.

Doubtless Nikkei Simmer would complain about the lack of guns and missile stations for shipping, but there’s always Carlos’ Frigate for that … you just have to hope a loony like Kirry doesn’t come along and feel sorry for it

Anyway, one of us has ideas for another seafarers’ boat of basic comforts, although still pretty bare bones as of yet …

IreneSwift’s Anna’s Finding Trouble In The Wind

Either that, or that’s one hell of a fart cloud the pappo’s just unleashed – look at all the dust it’s blowing up!

 

BlackSand Fails To See The Significance

Posted in Uncategorized on September 28, 2021 by themaresnest

Actually your Simmies are taking part in the annual Sharkloverplayer Memorial Hottubathon, to commemorate the last time Jeff the Sharkster played the One True Game before disappearing forever for the pastal blandness that is the Glitterturd.

Simmies everywhere hot tub on this day in solidarity with their lost Master Of All Hot Tubs (in the same way Figwit is Mistress of All Washing Machines) and in the hope one day he will be restored to his senses.

 

Nikkei Simmer’s Private Lessons

Posted in Uncategorized on September 28, 2021 by themaresnest

For those of you mourning the passing of BSIRegina aka Misty’s Ouroboros Legacy, we have a successor!

Either that or Nikkei’s got the contract for writing all of Anya’s scripts in the Buffy The Vampire Slayer reboot …

 

The Killer In Vanilla

Had to laugh at one of our attempts to enter the EA forum today, coming up with this:

Good to see EA finally admitting that their forum has gone vanilla, although the rest of us knew that back in 2014

IreneSwift’s Simmie’s Flaming Rotten Holiday

Posted in Uncategorized on September 26, 2021 by themaresnest

Now here’s a new one!

Simmies and their cack handedness when faced with fire we all know only too well (and it is to put it mildly rather annoying)

But get a load of what happened after the inevitable …

Wait, what?

It was enough to get PhoenixArrande and Cororon hot under the collar …

Like the paparazzi? The only good reason for paparazzi is as Cowplant food!

 

IreneSwift confirmed to Bekkasan and the rest she did have a back up to fall back on (nothing like tomb exploration to concentrate the mind on ‘save early, save often!’ …)

Which was to Cororon’s relief.

Pffft, typical Taffer – they just don’t get the appeal of a freshly flame roasted granny (with all the trimmings) …

But the main reason for IreneSwift’s problem is as she explained to Venitia, she has the Celebrity system on, which means stupid game lagging pappos everywhere causing events like this.

Again, another reason for saying having a Celeb sim is more trouble than it’s worth.

The Return (Again!) Of Playermarko456

Posted in Uncategorized on September 26, 2021 by themaresnest

Well, well, well, look who’s back?

Playermarko456, one time resident Argie of the EA forum – who survived flirtations with the Aarinites in their forums and blogs outside of Jazz-Hands and with the Comrades but actually joining the latter, albeit briefly – we knew had returned to Sims 3 after a less than glorious time glitterturding.

We’ve had issues with them in the past, but what the plumbob, nice(ish) to see an old face back.

They are however just a little bit rusty at this whole asking for things on Simming forums concept, as KateFernLily pointed out:

 

Nitroglycol’s Swimming With Hamlet Moment

Posted in Uncategorized on September 25, 2021 by themaresnest

With a name like Nitroglycol, we were filled with trepidation just what sort of weird wishes they could possibly be getting.

They were explosive alright, but in a different and definitely ikky way …

You’ve not been downloading the Hamlet or Norman Bates mod by any chance?
