Waves back at @ciane ... and @SamelaRita , @BreeMiles , @seaben and @ADWilson too of course .... I'm already sooooo excited!!! ... and I will be on tenterhooks until Addy reveals who my buddy is ....
My turn to wave - at @BreeMiles , @ciane , @Hidehi , @seaben , and of course @ADWilson for starting this off this weekend. And I can't wait to find out who my buddy will be either...
And we're glad you joined @seaben !
It's a fun way to meet and make new friends, chatting via thread while we wait until Gifting Time.
I get as excited as @Hidehi when it's time to reveal Secret Buddies and then get sneak peeks of what some of y'all plan to do while you're working on various things.
Edit: waves to everyone @BreeMiles@ciane and @SamelaRita also get excited to know names even if they aren't as exuberant as dear Hidehi. LOL
Yay!
Glad y'all like the idea of base game builds for the SIMversary, @LMC6255 and @seaben
Every now and then I try to challenge myself with no store content although I've yet to limit myself pack-wise.
I have installed the following Expansion Packs: ALL, except Supernatural
I have installed the following Stuff Packs: ALL
I own the following store content ALL, except the Golden Ticket Toy Store ( I do own the Titanic Toy Machine)
Note, I don't own the Boardwalk Attire, I also don't have any promotional or exclusive items, except for a few MMAO exclusives..
I own the following EA-made Worlds: ALL
Some of my favorite colors are: I like all colors, I feel, color appeal depends on how it fits with the color scheme and style of the build and how it effects the overall aesthetic...
I really don’t like this color: None, unless the colors are badly matched.. However, If colors don't match on purpose for creative reasons, go ahead, I love builds done with an artistic flair! So please be creative and have fun!!
I love to use items from this set: I use items from all sets depending on what I am creating and how it looks within the overall town's scenic style where the built is placed.. I prefer to use store content, but I often will mix store items with EP or SP items so builds upload easier....
I prefer to play in this EA-made World: Hidden Springs, Sunset Valley, and Aurora Skies
I enjoy this style of build the most: (Examples: Craftsman, Victorian, Modern) It depends on which surroundings the build is in.. I have found builds I adore in every style, choose whatever style you are best at building and is fun for you!! I know I will love it!!
I really don’t want this in my game: I don't like having to control a very large households, no more than three sims please!!
I would or would not like lots in the following sizes: I prefer smaller lots, nothing larger than a 30 x 30 if it is a residential lot.. However, if the lot needs to be bigger because it is a special type of commercial lot, then go ahead and use whatever lot size you need...
I want/don’t want berry sims: It is up to you buddy if you want to add berry sims, if you choose to, please just make the berry sim simply colorful, and human looking, (no plant people please).. If you would like to create sims (either human or berry) from another period in history (for example: sims wearing Tudor style clothing, or Space boots because of the style of the lot demands it) that would also be lovely! I have never played berry sims..
I want/don’t want occult sims: No occult sims of any type please! I prefer a realistic style of gameplay..
I want/don’t want pets in the household: Dear Buddy, It is up to you weather or not you want to add any pets.. However, I would be very grateful if they are low maintenance pets.. I do well with birds, fish or other small animals, dogs with the neat and non destructive trait, if it's cats, please make them in pairs, they keep each other company, please make sure they have all the pet essentials they require (pet-bed, scratching pole, litter box, etc.)... No horses, please, they require a lot of attention.
Do you want your sims and/or pets skilled up for you? If so, how much? Just a couple of skill points would be awesome!! Pets do not need any skilling up, unless you want to..
Are there certain skills you want skilled because you really like having them ready when you start with a new sim or household? This up to you, Buddy, although, I would be very grateful if new sims had a few skill points in cooking so they don't burn down the kitchen and a few handiness skill points would be very useful!!
Are there particular skill items that you really like having in a build? It would be great if they had a kitchen with fairly good quality stove and fire alarm, also a computer and a bookshelf with some books for skill enhancement would be really helpful!
How do your sims travel around town? Taxi ... vehicle ... bicycle/scooter ... horse ... broom? It depends on the lot, and the accommodations for vehicles.. I am happy with any mode of transportation.. I usually use either cars, scooter, motorcycles or bikes...
Other: Dear Buddy, whatever you decide to create for the Summer Fest Gift Exchange, I will treasure it!! Most of all, I hope you have a wonderful time and that your creativity shines through!! I know I will love it!!
Here would be a good place to mention what you do NOT feel comfortable making. There are Simmers who don’t enjoy occult things … they shouldn’t have to create that for another or receive that type of gift in return. This is just one example off the top of my head and I’m sure there are others I haven’t thought of. If you would prefer to send a private message to me with your answer, please feel free to do so. I would prefer not to create or receive Occult Sims, haunted houses or haunted graveyards...
This text is to certify that I have read ALL the posts and will follow the rules for participation as well as pay attention to important dates.

If you’re having trouble figuring out what to say in your letter, peek at the previous gift exchange for ideas.
Sims 3 Happy Holidays Gift Exchange 2019
Don’t worry. Have FUN!
Your Buddy will what you make for them!
Yay!
Glad y'all like the idea of base game builds for the SIMversary, @LMC6255 and @seaben
Every now and then I try to challenge myself with no store content although I've yet to limit myself pack-wise.
I have seen some beautiful base game builds.. I hope I'm up to the challenge, I know BG builds take a lot of casting and creativity to pull them of.. It will be well worth the effort and a lot of fun to do!!
@LMC6255 Yay, you're back! Your builds are amazing - I've seen your studio too! So whatever you build for your buddy will be great and eagerly seized upon admired by everyone else.

@GraceyManor So sorry to hear that you've been ill - and pleased to hear that you're recovering. Do hope you can join in again
I have installed the following Expansion Packs: All expansion packs.
I have installed the following Stuff Packs: All, except Katy Perry Sweet Treats
I own the following Store Content: (List what you own ~ if you own a lot of items, please list what you do NOT own)
I own A LOT of store items.But the items I don't own are:
Grandpa's Grove
Prisim Art Studio
Mother Russia
Grim's Ghastly Manor
Bahaus
I own the following EA-made Worlds: , and I only own gold version of Sunlit Tides,and midnight hollow the rest are
basic worlds.
Some of my favorite colors are: Natural Colors like browns, whites, tans
I really don’t like this color: flash neon colors
I love to use items from this set: Brunch at the old mill, Indulgent Bakery, Business as Usual Bistro, Wonders of Carousel, basicall
anything that adds gameplay.
I prefer to play in this EA-made World: 90% of the time I use custom worlds, but when I do play
an EA world it would be Appaloosa Plains or Twinbrooke
I enjoy this style of build the most: (Examples: Craftsman, Victorian, Modern): Traditional, Colonial, Federalist, Haunted mansions
Craftsman, farm houses
I really don’t want this in my game: Moderns or victorians.As pretty as some of them are, I just can't find myself using them.
And the modern style furniture, just isn't my style.
I would or would not like lots in the following sizes: (If you’re a fan of tiny lots, then here is a great place to mention that! If larger lots make your game lag while loading them, mention it!)
If the lot could be 50x50 or smaller that would be great, anything bigger and my game likes to crawl LOL.
I want/don’t want berry sims: I don't think I would find use for berry sims, I'm more a realistic type of gal.
I want/don’t want occult sims: (Be sure to specifically list those that you are fine with or mention which ones you don’t want to see in your game!)
While I find occults fun to play with every so often, its not something I make use of.Aside from ghosts.
I want/don’t want pets in the household: (Like cats more than dogs? Prefer cute puppies to horses? Don’t want any critters? Mention it!)
Please no horses or large dogs.The worlds I play in don't work well for horses, and I have a weird glitch with large dogs.
Do you want your sims and/or pets skilled up for you? If so, how much? A few points in cooking please, I would hate for my sim to burn
his or her house down.XD
Are there certain skills you want skilled because you really like having them ready when you start with a new sim or household? (Example: A few points in Cooking would be nice so sims don’t burn the grilled cheese and can make more than a mean bowl of cereal!) Cooking, Gardening and Photography
Are there particular skill items that you really like having in a build? (Example: I love having sims that can cook, garden, paint and write so having those skilling objects would be awe-sim!)
Cooking, Photography, painting and gardening.
How do your sims travel around town? Taxi ... vehicle ... bicycle/scooter ... horse ... broom? (Mention your preference and whether you want a parking spot or two, garage, bike racks, stable, broom stand. Some sims prefer to put transportation in their inventory, if applicable.) Usually by their own car.
Other: (Describe here anything that you’d really like that might or might not have been previously mentioned!)
I'm really starting to enjoy into the future, so some of the futuristic items to use would be pretty neat.I also enjoy
traveling and wouldn't mind some touristy themed attractions for my sims to visit.
Here would be a good place to mention what you do NOT feel comfortable making. There are Simmers who don’t enjoy occult things … they shouldn’t have to create that for another or receive that type of gift in return. This is just one example off the top of my head and I’m sure there are others I haven’t thought of. If you would prefer to send a private message to me with your answer, please feel free to do so.
Sci-fi lots, I don't really know much about it, so I struggle to build.
