    So, I decided to make a family tree for my speed legacy family. Let's see how long it takes for it to get convoluted :)

    http://www.familyecho.com/?p=START&c=fm39khqp03&f=451964791806752728

    By the way, Cami, I had a bit of an idea. It would be cool if on the first page you listed everyone doing the challenge that's posted on here and linked their updates/their family trees if they made them. I know that would be a lot of work for you so you don't have to do it, I just thought I'd suggest it :)

    I've hit an unexpected snag in mine lol. Thea and Bondi are still alive and with an 8 person household there isn't any chance of getting the next gen preggers o_O

    Thea - you could move the couple out on there own...or send Thea and Bondi out. No rules that they have to stay together.

    @Vex: I love your first generation, all your blurbs are really funny. Your IF grew up really nicely too! Did you use a cheat to edit her? Because my IFs always have the generic townie face and I can't use "Edit in CAS" to edit them. It aggravates me to no end.

    Thanks!

    And Cuddles *does* have the generic townie genes. I didn't edit her. She's just making funny faces in all the pics I took of her.

    But that begs the question: I know editing offspring in CAS is a no-no, but since pickings are slim in this town, if I want Madeline to travel and meet cute French/Chinese/Egyptian boys, is it okay to edit THEM in CAS so there actually ARE cute French/Chinese/Egyptian boys?

    Because seriously, have you guys BEEN to Champs le Sims? :roll:

    Far as I can tell, there's no rule that says the heir needs to stay with the parents. You can move people around.

    I think I'll have to T__T I so wanted them all in the same house. Oh well. Here's the family so far. Maia is Myles and Koko's oldest but I changed my mind about simselves and she's gettn' busy with her IF :D

    I would say that's fine considering you can just make a spouse in CAS. As long as you edit them in CAS before breeding (and why wouldn't you right? lol)

    Also! Check the first page! For simplicity sake I linked to the updates within this thread even if it was a link off site. Heir votes I usually looked over because the pics were usually seen in later updates - kinda depended on the posting habits of the person. If I missed anything or anyone let me know - it's entirely possible I skipped over something on accident! :D

    My heir has been out seeding the lands until the siblings are gone. Once the house is empty and the children are born, he'll go out and "collect" them up. :wink:

    @Cami: It looks great! Now it'll be easy to catch up if I'm away from the forums for a few days :)

    @thea: Nice update, can't wait to see IF offspring, and Maia's adorable!

    @vex: I'll be editing townies if I have to, mostly cause I can't stand the generic townie face. It's seriously the bane of my existence! So far the non-generic townie sims haven't been reproducing much, but funny enough my Shakespeare themed family did- and they had a kid that the game named Juliet! I was completely shocked :shock:

    @Proverb: why does it bring back bad memories?

    Once upon a time, R started the Mirror, Mirror thread - mind you this was back when Sims 3 had JUST come out - and everyone posted their updates on the thread and R had to keep editing the first page to include new updates. That thread was/is over a 1000 pages long! :P So you can imagine how many updates there were lol

    Maia may be adorable but she is mean spirited and evil. It's all I can do to keep her from jumping down everyone's throats O_O. Lucky for me Alaina aged up to a YA and I could move her out and quickly get Maia preggers by her IF hubby.

    Bondi and Thea are still with us though. I mean seriously your 28 Bondi I love you but it's time for you to go!

    28 is old, wow! I think Ian died when he was in his early twenties, like 20 or 21 (SCARY to even say that, since it's literally right around how old I am).

    And it's funny that Maia's mean spirited and evil, because my simself's firstborn Jacob is too. And he's a genius, which means he could cause some serious havoc!

    In the end, tooooooo much work! We abandoned the thread for an outside forum so I wouldn't have to keep up the index any more! :P There were too many stories to keep up with! :P (thanks to Cami for updating her stories every ten minutes or so)

    True! Only mostly! :wink:

    But then, having to maintain the first page meant I didn't have to write OR update! :twisted:

    Question: does anybody doing a speed legacy right now not use cc? I think it would be fun to download other people's speed legacy simmies and put them in my save. But I don't use cc.

    Basically, if you have a cc free speed legacy simmie that you want me to put in my game let me know. I would credit them if they show up in any updates :)

    I don't use CC clothing, but I have all the Store stuff! I DO use some CC accessories! I have the twins Michael and Ryan saved and they have the small hoop earrings from TSR!

    Does store content count as CC?

    I keep minimal wearable CC items, none of which are worn by any of my legacy family members. Store items, however, are used willy-nilly.

    My simself's already in my studio, and I was thinkin' about posting some of the others, too.

    And Proverb: Those earrings are EVIL! I have them in my game because of some of your boys I installed ages ago, and haven't been able to get rid of 'em since then. :P

    I'm sorry, VQ! :oops:

    But you know you love my boys just the same! :P
