Meme
De ([info]fireflower314) did not ask me to do this meme, and I am sooooo hurt.

OK, not really. 
1. Pick a hot guy...take a moment to think.
2. Is this really the guy you want?
3. Pick his top 10 hottest, cutest, most irresistible pictures.
4. Tag 5 other users.


And I'm not going to tag anyone because she pretty much tagged everybody I would have tagged, unless someone would like to be tagged, in which case, consider yourself tagged.

Nevertheless. . . .

That is (fairly) easy.  After a brief consideration of Buster Keaton, I absolutely have *got* to pick Rudolph Valentino.  C'mon.  Not enough ladies swoon over the Sheik anymore, and I swear to you if I were any good at this I would totally make him into a Sim.  But heaven knows plenty of ladies swooned over him in his time.  And of course I have to pick Rudy.  I have a huge picture of him over my fireplace.

There is no such thing as an un-hot picture of Rudolph Valentino.  However, there are not *nearly* enough of them online, so these will have to do.  You get 17 photos, sorry, because I could not pick just ten.


And also, you get a bonus video, because really, to get it, you have to see him in action:




You really must see a whole film with him in it.

And I think I have demonstrated that I have excellent taste.

Wanted to show off...

If you missed the toddler picspam of Didi and Nolan's kids, check my last post.  They're going to be growing up mostly, if not entirely, outside of updates, so that's the best place to see the cuteness.  And they are cute.  Oh yes, they are cute.  They got the Vetinari nose!  Yay!

I'll probably be able to update the Dualegacy late this week, early next week at the latest.  With the Didi/Del stuff I've already got in there, and the Coco Gets A Date stuff that's been in there since the last update, and the Cypress/Spider Jerusalem scene I wrote last night, the chapter's about half-done.  The hard part's going to be growing everyone up!  Cory may be craggy, but he's fun, and so is Helen.  And it's DEFINITELY going to be rough watching Raven and Tom get old, all things considered.  Gotta be done, though, if I'm to get the kiddies off to college.  Three birthdays (Cory, Helen, Raven/Tom), one more plotty scene, Touching Goodbye Scenes, then it's update time!

Honestly, I'm actually really excited for college this time around.  I've had this plotline waiting in the wings for a while now, and I'm pumped to finally be able to pull the trigger on it.  Normally, it feels like a bit of a grind, but I don't think it'll feel like that this time.

Videos and other things
[Cloned from P^4]

I'm organizing stuff in preparation for shooting video for Twilight Dreams, but I haven't actually started, and I don't think I'm going to until tomorrow, because I'm not feeling patient enough to deal with the "5 minutes of shooting is 30 seconds of video" ratio today. (Thursday-Sunday was All Guild Wars All The Time, because they had a holiday weekend, too, and yesterday I had housework to do, so today's the first day I've really looked at it anyhow.)

I'm actually going to be doing shooting for three videos: a revised version of the opening theme, the video I intend to release ASAP along with one other thing for the close of Volume 1, and one more video that'll probably come out with or just after Episode 5.

The other things I plan on doing, this week and likely part of next: a small batch of CC, some vacation lot building for S&S, and hopefully some scripting for TD.

Today, tho, I think I'm going to veg out on strategy games.

YAYZ
A few nights ago I stayed up past 3 AM getting my sims graduated. My night went like this:

1:00 AM: I've screwed up my sleeping schedule terribly, so it'll be impossible for me to go to sleep now. Maybe I'll just play Sims until I get tired, since nobody is online that's worth talking to.
1:30 AM: YAAAAAY FINAL SEMESTER FOR EVERYONE. I take too long to get through a Sim day. I think I'll just play a little bit more.
2:00 AM: WHY MUST POOLS MAKE MY GAME LAG SO MUCH. Screw you, community lot. Screw you and your wife and children.
2:40 AM: So tired. Sooo tired. But they're almost all graduated. Guitar Hero would probably be a much better game to be obsessed with...
3:00 AM: Just a short graduation party for Mae and I am DONE.
3:20 AM: Yes. A short graduation party. Just not a short graduation party for someone like me who takes so many framming pictures.

So now all the kids have graduated and most are home with their parents or with the parents of their SO. I think Ronika is the only one who is living on her own. I shot a few pictures in each of the houses to put at the end of the next update, which means I'm ready to write now. The update is still shorter than I wish it was, but if I played the houses now so that I could have more pictures I would have to get everyone married, and my OCD will not allow me to have weddings in a college chapter. That would be madness. Madness, I say!

It's hard not to go ahead and play the houses, though. I'm so excited for the next generation. One of the girls is already pregnant, and it's going to bug me so much that I can't see her baby for a while.

It all goes round in circles
Wow generation seven has even more tangled lines than I thought.  

After replying to [info]smjoshsims about ACR and dorm assignments I played around with some charting trying to determine who would be heading to UNI when and who they should live with once they get there.    I generally prefer that the sims living together at University know that they are related to each other.  The way ACR is coded it doesn't matter how in love or how committed two sims are to each other when their timers go off they grab the best available target at hand.  The experimentation and sowing of wild oats bed hopping doesn't bother me all that much, but once I've gotten my heart set on a couple I like to see them remain fairly faithful.  

So yeah where was I going with this?  Right circular interbreeding.  While looking at dorm assignments I was trying to determine who is a first cousin to whom.  It gets pretty complicated at times.

Edam Smith is first cousin to
Easter Dreamer who is a first cousin to
Evander Familiar who is a first cousin to
Elani Familiar who is first cousin to
Edward London who is a first cousin to
Everest Indie who is a first cousin to
Evita London who is first cousin to
Edam Smith

It's more complex than that of course, Easter and Evita are also first cousins but Evita isn't related at all closely to Evander being that their closest common ancestor is Betty they'd be third cousins.

All that being said I still have no clue as to how to do housing this go round, I'll probably end up moving people around as more join or leave University.  Due to my dislike of smaller Uni households I'll probably have more bed hopping in the first few years while we wait for younger siblings and first cousins to join the older ones.    I could just do boys and girls dorms I guess and just toss everyone together lotto style which might save me a few headaches in the long run, but then I have to take gender preferences into account as well.  /sigh

For those who have requested them, I have just uploaded the following Sims: Belle, Cora, Cordelia, Cornelius, Emma and Emily.  

And now I have another weird question for you all.  I downloaded the most recent SimPE and went in to extract the Sims I had never extracted before - Dolly, Deborah, Dena, and a couple of this generation's kids. Only one problem - when it opened, I went to Riverblossom Hills and opened Sim Surgery, and none of my Sims were there!  The Maxis Sims all seem to be, but none of my Finch family is.  I tried my prosperity neighborhood, to see if my created Sims were there, and they are, so it seems to be just a Riverblossom Hills problem.  Any advice on why my Sims aren't listed, and what I can do to fix it?

One note - this is the most recent SimPE, which is updated to Kitchen & Baths, which I don't have yet (but hope to have in a couple of weeks, for my birthday, so if this is the problem, then I'll just wait and try to extract them again when I get it and install it).  I don't know if that would make any problems.
