    Got my name! 3 am our time, they were going out, so surprise, surprise, I was fast asleep ;) Now to start reading the letter, planning, re-planning and generally having great fun! And a huge welcome to all the lurkers too - it feels so community when other people hang over the garden fence and say, I like that, and That's nice, and Can I have a cutting of that?

    I like the way you worded it @SamelaRita !
    It does feel like we're visiting each other over the garden fence, admiring the yards and homes.

    Glad to see everyone has there buddy names and are off and running!

    Yes, @MiaSkywalker maybe if I strip everything down to base game I can do something for the Simversary - After all, the anniversary means something to me having been on the Sims forums for so very long and making so many amazing friends!

    Tell me Addy @ADWilson - Does it have to be a build for the Simversary? You know I love making Sims and stories too! Might be a fun addition to add some Sims with some nice stories that people can add as townies in their game. I know I don't mind some of Maxis NPC but I love have lots of characters with bios, backgrounds and more depth in my Sim Worlds. Let me know, meanwhile I will keep trying to trouble shoot my game and see if I can get it to run a bit smoothier.

    Hmm ...
    Builds need Sims to live in them. My idea was for each person to make one build so it wouldn't be too much for them or us when it came to custard checking. But ... let's go with a MAXIMUM of three items per person. Build and/or Sims. Still base game only so everyone can use/enjoy.

    Will adjust the post on the front page of this thread.

    @ADWilson Are you only refering to the community builds or gifting in general (what we create for our buddies) and the community builds?

    This is ONLY for the SIMversary gifts.
    The things you create for your Buddy is based on inspiration from their letter, like always.
    Hope this helps clear up any confusion. :)

    Sad more people haven't joined, but happy to see lurkers! B)

    I've got two stories in progress, plus still working. o:)

    If I hadn't just started two separate challenges I probably would have signed up again. Maybe in the fall depending on where life is at. B)
