    Hi!

    Been playing for a while, and I can't figure out how to get my Sims to "play games" with each other. They get "Play/Win a game with _____" wishes, but I can't figure out how to get them to do it. I've tried having them play chess, but that's not it. Any tips?

    A little weird.

    One of my sims married her cousins, Dad. I was so grossed out when I found them living together. She was also prego! :shock:

    My sister's sim married her father-in-law. :-)

    Didja no...
    If two sims are in love and one is in a relationship already, the other can "Ask to break up with so-and-so" I love that!

    Yes but you have to KNOW that the other person is in a relationship that's why I ask if they're single before I start the mushy stuff :-)

    yes! my favorite are the opal and crystal ball cuts .... and someone said there is a HEART cut but I have not achieved it ever ...............


    I just achieved it

    Yeah I did too and then my power went out and when i got back to the game all my progress I made that day was lost including the heart cut, I was so mad. I still haven't gotten it back. I have to say my favorites are the plumbbob and the crystal ball. I wasn't too crazy about the ones I got in the heart cut, which is good since they're all gone! darn power company trying to save money at my Sim's expense!

    Did you know that a sim can woo-hoo with their step parent and can get pregnant/ make them pregnant while the daughter is pregnant? This makes that baby's aunt her sister. Freaky huh

    swiping things has to do with time of day, I think it has to be after dark and before daybreak. Also, if there are other sims around you cant swipe. Ive only played my klepto a few times but thats what I have found out from trial and error and the forum :D

    I've stolen during the day before.
    I've had issues where if I click too far away from items that can be stolen, the option comes up. Like if I'm at a house and I click to close to the sidewalk.

    I had cousins that were able to marry in TS2 once. I couldn't figure out why they had the same last name but still could be romantic. I was amused. One was 2nd generation and one was 3rd. I married them for the amusing family tree :)

    To get the Heart cut, your sim must have obtained all of the gem types. The rarest is the PINK DIAMOND. So its usually the last one you look for.

    Thay can copy homework but it will be marked as copied.
    So, the school can catch it and put the sim in detention for cheating.

    Sometimes they just have to play for a while.

    Try something else to see if it something in the game.

    Besides chess, which does take a little time for the game to recognize (maybe has to be a full game?), there's playing catch (you have to buy one of them a football or baseball & they have to have it in their inventory for this to show up, I think) or they can play tag.

    I don't know if this had been posted but

    a. insane Sims will wear swimsuits to bed, swim in formals, workout in underwear, etc.

    b. Male Sims can get pregnant by another male Sim, no cheat required, or least it has happened in my game.

    I got an interesting glitch once where my toddler fell asleep and fell through the potty! It was a potty with legs and I didn't use the moveobjects cheat. It was fantastic!

    I like that if a sim is in a curent career he will occasionally get asked if he would like to transfer jobs to a similar or higher level :) gives you more choices if you get sick of the same job!

    Did you know that when you tell your Sims to "get married" and there is a radio on that the music changes to wedding music? Now where is the wedding arch?
