  1. Not going to sim all night again *as she waits for TS3 to load at 2:13 am*

      Yeah, been there. -sigh- bad for one's mood the day after, though.

      Not if one has the day off and can sleep all day because she lives with her parents so her mom feeds the cat. :)

  2. Well, this is interesting, for sure. HUGE HUGS to TFM and ISZ for being so awesome and on top of all the questions and issues. :cookiejar:

  3. My 10-year anniversary of joining was yesterday. Wow, where did the time go?!

  4. Whoot! My first successful avatar with GIMP! (I can't even remember what I used for Google & MTS.)

      It's my cat, in case that wasn't obvious. I just got pics off an old memory card onto the computer I've had since.March? February? I'd forgotten what was on it. That particular pic is over a year old. Nevi is over 13 lbs now. I tried telling that little brat not to grow, but did he listen? :( It took about half a dozen tries to finally get it small enough.

  5. Crud. It just occurred to me that Seasons is going to bork with gardening, and probably fishing. And after the update headache I just went through, to only have a few weeks of peace before I have to do it again.

      Think of the poor modders. We only have to download the mods, they have to update them. :)

    2. Chicken0895

      Chicken0895

      I only have a few mods that always need updating. Think of poor TFM who has hundreds of them!

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Oh, I know. Hence the "crud", because I would never expect anyone to kill themselves over updating. I just left that part out cuz I thought it was getting a little long for a status update. I have already expressed my sympathies to TFM over the situation. And I don't auto-update, so normally that wouldn't be a problem, but last time there was a patch, it crashed my game until I installed it. :\ Grrr.

  6. Survived Monday, sick and all. Thank you, Nora Roberts, for helping with that.

      Firestaar1

      She's GREAT at that isn't she? Which one were you reading?

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      I pretty much absorbed the Three Sisters trilogy in 2 days.

    3. Firestaar1

      Firestaar1

      That's a great trilogy- I have all her novels, and just finished The Dark Witch last night.

  7. Anybody know offhand why my game goes into a processing loop when I hit the check mark in CAS? :cries:

    1. Cloudwalker

      Cloudwalker

      known glitch, Crin blog might have answer, but mine was when I had a pattern that was made in CASP and then made into a package (a no-no)

    2. Cloudwalker
    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Crap, that's a distinct possibility. I might have to start there, then. Thank you! I googled, but couldn't find anything on it.

  8. I owe Cloudwalker a HUGE thanks for enlightening me on a commonly known bug. Now to figure out why in the hell my game is still crashing after playing awhile. :|

    1. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      Which bug was that? Hope you can get the game to play nicely now!

    2. Cloudwalker

      Cloudwalker

      Oh,just saw this! You're welcome! (the spinning 'can't leave CAS due to a CAP pattern being made into a package' thing.

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Yeah, it seems to be pretending to behave now. I played for a few (too many!) hours last night with no problems but lag, which is to be expected.

  9. Ooook. I wanna swim in oceans and rivers, so the official cc purge has started. Steals yourselves, NSA, MTS, Ace Creators, and any other site I'm fixing to hit.

    1. jvrd12

      jvrd12

      yasss! that feature will surely give a whole new meaning to my Sim's beach house in Sunset Valley. :D

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      :) Yeah, I am fixing to start playing a family where most of them love the outdoors. It seems ridiculous to start before updating. I'm just praying for SN and Seasons for Xmas.

    3. jvrd12

      jvrd12

      that's not ridiculous. it's the excitement. I hope you get them! :)

  10. #?*!%@/~ ! I think HP randomly launching something that needed my permission (updates, maybe?) just crashed my game. #?*!%@?/~

    1. Cloudwalker

      Cloudwalker

      time to change your settings. :) I learned the hard way too

    2. Nellas

      Nellas

      Yeah, I change all that to just no do anything unless I tell it to. I don't trust my computer XD

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      It was the pop-up asking that crashed it. Grr.

  11. Yeah, totally just stayed up past 3 AM doing NRaas tuning files in anticipation of playing sometime next year! Oops. ;)

    1. Cohzaku

      Cohzaku

      Also up, but just playing minecraft.

    2. Signy

      Signy

      Ah video games. I wasn't on here at the time but was up playing Dragon Age myself.

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Hey, you guys had more fun than me! However, a sims play session in sight has cheered me up a lot.

  12. It's official: I have pestered twallan with a stupid question. On his wiki. And it wasn't about Relativity. :facepalm:

    1. arathea

      arathea

      Believe me, you are not alone. lol

    2. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      I asked a Sims question once that wasn't stupid. Wait! No, I didn't. I must have dreamed that I did. :D

    3. nixicole
  13. And I now have to acknowledge that my bucket list will NEVER be complete. I can't afford Bon Jovi tickets. :(

    1. jvrd12

      jvrd12

      :( that sucks! *hug*

    2. Cohzaku

      Cohzaku

      Eventually you reach the point where you have two lists: THings you say you're going to do; and things you actually will do. "watch a movie on the environment." "Watch 'when celebrities wet their pants'." "Start a well-balanced vegan diet with an exercise regimin to promote longevity and well-being." "Watch a sports movie while eating sugar-free ice cream."

    3. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      If Atlantis is anywhere near Austin, there's a Bon Jovi concert coming up in April with tickets starting at $49. You might need binoculars to see them, though. Wherever you are, I hope you get a chance to make a concert.

  14. twallan updated Mover today. And for those of you who didn't catch my earlier post, Woohooer had an emergency update posted late last night. (Yes, I stalk the wiki.)

    1. nixicole

      nixicole

      And anyone playing with the test version of SP, that's been updated, too.

    2. michalien

      michalien

      Thanks nix. Already updated. No more annoying:woohoo errors

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Happy that my stalking is of help! ;)

  15. Oh, dang. Origin is running a sale on TS3 Uni and storewide free shipping right now. I only have $4 til Wednesday. :(

    1. Cohzaku

      Cohzaku

      How much is it?

      I got it during the big sale with everything else for $27.99

    2. Shonie

      Shonie

      Still $27.99 but I got SN and Showtime for $24.99. :D

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Yeah, the $27.99. With free shipping, so I can get the cd version. I've never ordered from origin before.

  16. Thinking about joining a gym. Hmm.

    1. Cohzaku

      Cohzaku

      Feel like relocating to New Mexico? I need a partner. XD

    2. The ISZ

      The ISZ

      We just did not too long ago and I feel much better for doing it. :D It's the whole getting started part that is hard.

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      I would love to move to NM, but I can't afford to live on my own. The getting started part is why I'm gonna do it, I think. If I'm paying monthly, I'd hate to waste that money.

  17. *demands to know how Fire's first day went*

    1. Firestaar1

      Firestaar1

      LOL sorry Nixicole, it went very well. A LOT to this job, but will keep me busy which is good.

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      Busy helps make the workday go by faster. :)

    3. Firestaar1
  18. Day off over. :( Back to the blah tomorrow. (I don't work hard enough to use grindstone.) Happy Monday, everybody. Don't forget the chocolate! IMPORTANT NEWS: SP & Traveler have been updated!

    1. Shonie

      Shonie

      My day off starting. :) Hmm dang I wish Twallan had a SP LITE version. I miss it in my game, but it just killed performance.

    2. Orilon

      Orilon

      Traveler has been updated, but the SP is only for those that use the Korean Translation.

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Oops, was so excited to see updates that I might've jumped the gun, sorry.

  19. Omg. twallan's on a role, everybody. Go check for updates.

    1. michalien
    2. bluegenjutsu

      bluegenjutsu

      Just remember not to put in the new Traveler mod if you are playing a sim on Vacation or in University.

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      Is that a general rule? Cuz I can't find where he says that about this new version. Haven't used traveler really to understand it.

  20. HOLY *ahem* Does almost a THOUSAND tattoo files qualify me for the PDW Association yet? (I do have other cc, too.)

    1. Loralie0512

      Loralie0512

      Welcome to the Association!

    2. tessalion13

      tessalion13

      Wow, I didn't realize there were that many tatoos out there! I think you need to start a tattoo link thread :P

    3. nixicole

      nixicole

      I might could do that. I'd have to backtrack, though.

  21. My anti-virus is sooo grounded.

    1. Nellas

      Nellas

      Check out Microsoft Security Essentials if you are looking for a new anti. I visit all of 'those' type sites and have never had a virus at all on any computer that I ran MSE on. I highly recommend it.

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      I might, once my Kaspersky subscription expires. I keep getting an application launch fail message. Then it launches. Grrr. :|

    3. Cloudwalker

      Cloudwalker

      #1 hands down is ESET. You will never have a virus again.

  22. Oh, boy, already making resolutions for the new year. New diet and exercise regime, new (and first ever!) sim story, new reading, etc. My two goals for the next 24 hours: hit 900 posts (at 899 right now) and get Sleepy Paradise set up for that story I wanna intro on the 1st. Oh, and scarf one more KitKat before 12 AM on 1/1/14. *rolls eyes at self*

    1. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      I NEVER make Resolutions because I tend to have trouble completing them and I feel bad. So I just do the best I can. Best of luck with yours! Only ONE KitKat? How do you manage just one?

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      I usually don't - or get the kings-sized ones. :)

    3. Katelinjens

      Katelinjens

      KitKats are wonderful. Makes the company who made the M&M Wafer Bar (back in the 60's) upset. That was almost the same thing but it was discontinued for some reason.

  23. Remembered my password on first try, woohoo!

    1. michalien

      michalien

      I'm like you, forgeting easily. Therefore I have a notebook at my desk with all logins and passwords. I do not trust my brain in this things. ;-)

    2. Rosewin

      Rosewin

      Me too. If I do remember them I usually get them mixed up with the different sites I'm on.

    3. Dawn

      Dawn

      I have my 'remember password' checked so I don't forget, because I actually don't remember what my password is!

  24. I'm gonna have to cave and sign in to 4shared now that navetsea uploads there exclusively. :(

    1. arathea

      arathea

      Have you tried bugmenot?

    2. nixicole

      nixicole

      never even heard of it.

    3. Cohzaku

      Cohzaku

      bugmenot doesn't seem to be updated that often, though.Nixi, it's basically a website where people will share accounts on websites (Typcially the registration required type) so you don't have to go through that process.
