Lynnwood's ISBI Challenge Rules for TS4! - 3/22 University Update! «1…35363738394041...Next Go

RL

Quick question for fellow ISBI-ers: what happens if a Sim starts drowning, but is saved by a death flower? Do you still take the point loss?

Busufu

@Lynnwood

Thank you very much. You have helped me a lot!
One (hopefully) last question:
What do I do with the deceased (ghosts and gravestones) they remaim on the lot?

Lynnwood

@RL - hrm. An interesting question. If they happened to already have the death flower in their inventory through sheer luck, I'd say no. If you sneakily click-dragged it into the inventory to save them, then I might take the point loss just on principle lol. But that's personal preference at that point.

@Busufu - Personal preference. You can keep them on the lot for ghostly reminders of past generations (and possible shennanigans), you can move them to a different lot if you want so you don't have to deal with that, or just delete them. Whichever you prefer.

I had the TH, the drowning sim's mother, give the death flower to Grim, which I put in her inventory when she was a teen.

Shadami

I've never used a death flower. I had no idea how they worked. So this question is helpful for me in a fully different way xD

I, personally, wouldn't take the point loss. Since your TH was the one to give the death flower and she had it for a while.

But I also struggle with points so I'm all about not losing points lol

Lynnwood

Agreed, you'd be fine not deducting points for that.

Ok, I think I have this rule right but I just want to clarify. For the youth potion being able to be used one time for a sim, if the person who drinks it is the current TH it wouldn't negate the not spending NTH points because she is still the TH, at least I think I have that right. If the heir takes over, however, as TH and then she drinks it then it would negate those points because she's no longer TH, or is it just if I give one to someone who has never been TH that I negate those points? Probably going to have a single sim take one and she is currently TH, so I just want to make sure I have it right.

Lynnwood

Current THs could drink the potion with no penalty. Once they're no longer TH, it would incur the penalty.

Ok, I figured that is how it would work but I wanted to make sure. Thanks for verifying for me. This crazy challenge.

Nice beginnings and story I just started my own ISBI but I´m too lazy to write, might be posting pics now and then.

Armika74

My founder Kat Jenkins. She´s a Maxis made sim with some "re vamping" from me

mojot89

@Armika74 Love her makeover! good luck with your ISBI!

Armika74

Kat´s husband Salim.

And their kids Jayson and Leslie.

RL

So I finished my ISBI, finally. Ten generations with a Generation 11 Erratic heir raised to adulthood. It may have taken five years but I did it.

mojot89

@RL YAYAYAYAY!!!! That's so exciting!!

Armika74

Toddler care at it´s finest. I think the rest of the family went to bed

mojot89

Ahhhh. ISBI toddlers. The joy! lol

Armika74

Does this count as a fail? Salim is lazy so he naps just about anywhere
