@ErnesaT thank you once again for this scavenger hunt, I've been enjoying it very much I would like to use my points after my entry below for today. Assuming I will have 1575 simpoints, I want to get Sandy Shoals Sea Shanty (1500 sp) and TriSuit (75 sp). They are the first two items on my wishlist.
Here's what I found about Faith_Andhope in today's scavenger hunt:
Awesome @Holaheye, thanks for the nomination. I came up 10 points short for something* so with your nomination I can ask for it now instead of after another scavenger hunt.
Good day everyone. I love the finds. @SimLibby, How do you like Aurora Sky? @Holaheye, soooo, I had to do some work to find your wl under "Fronter" but you should have gifts.
@ErnesaT sorry for the difficulty! I added a link to the words "My Wishlist" on my comment, that didn't work I guess. I will be more careful with the links. And yes the gifts went through, thank you so much
To be honest, I haven't played in it yet @ErnesaT. I want to reinstall all my games and use Ciane's method of installing store content. Now it's all messy, it feels messy and I don't like to play in what I consider to be a messy game (my very organized mind doesn't enjoy that as much). After a clean reinstall of everything it's not messy anymore. I'm dreading to reinstall my store content because it's going to take a time to select what to install and what not to avoid doubles. Ever since my DD Stalking adventure - which is done now - it was my intention to still get a few items of the store with your contest (see how far I would get, pretty far so far Thank you! - and I was gifted by some generous simmers) and then using Ciane's method. Because she talks about using a certain amount of store items to fill up the dcdb<number>.ebc files till an certain size. When I have all store items I want I have a good oversight which store items to use to fill up each file. I'm afraid (although afraid is a bit of a strong word in this context) when I start now with filling up those .ebc files when I'm not done collecting some store items, it will mess up my system when a new store item is added. Then I have to recalculate in which .ebc file that store item goes in order not to exceed an certain size. Follow my logic? Hope so because I don't know how to describe it otherwise. I will surely play in Aurora Skies (and/or vacation in it, I have the traveler mod). I always favored The Sims 3 (and even The Sims Medieval) over The Sims 4. So I play TS3 frequently (I have phases when I play for a couple of days or weeks till another time).
Btw. I'm done laying carpet in my bedroom. For a first timer, I did such a good job. In this heat. It's very hot in the Netherlands right now with temperatures over 30 degrees Celsius. It looks beautiful the carpet.
I missed few days and few FS so I wanted to do the scavenger hunt with them also. I know they won't count and I'm not expecting any simpoints for them. I'm doing this just for fun and because I have time.

Off to make dinner.
I do understand but I have not tried installing that way yet. I may have to do it when I have time because I love TS3 but I have so many mods.
It's nice that you did a good job on laying the carpet. I did it one time before and would probably do it again but it is hard work. There is nothing like the feeling of accomplishing something that challenges you.
FYI, @ErnesaT, mods make no difference to the install method.
@SimLibby - You can just start installing items that you have, grouping them by size to keep each .ebc file under 204,800 kb (20MB).
If you don't own a complete set yet, you can save those items to install later OR install what you have in an .ebc that you can later pull out and reinstall when you get the set(s).

As soon as I have a few days of down time, I'm going to try it.
Check now. It should be there. Are you close to getting the set?
It's so mean. I was so sure the last item would do the trick but no. It still costs 15 SP and I have no SP at the moment. Hopefully this item will do the trick: Futureshock Loft- Moisture Minimization Station (25 SP). Could you please gift me that? It's number 21 on my wishlist, edit: I was gifted so it's number 20 now, edit: I got another gift so it's number 19 now: https://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=SimLibby Thanks!
About your comment with the Tented Bochka Tower. It's a new build from somebody else Disneyland Paris Resort - no cc by Soocoolsim. It's absolutely gourgeous. I have all store items used except that tower. More pictures here.
320 SP - 180 SP (Futureshock Loft Tech Revoltz: 2204 A.D.*) - 50 SP (Tented Bochka Tower*) - Futureshock Loft Moisture Minimization Station (25 SP) = total 65 SP. * This is the post where I request those gifts.
EDIT: you also didn't mention the Faith_Andhope nominations in the appropriate post.
7. I just want to say I did not forgot to nominate Seaben only according to my list, I still have to wait one day before a week is passed and I can nominate her again. In the meantime I would like to nominate hyrulerose: https://store.thesims3.com/myWishlist.html?persona=horseygirl66
If this is still going, I’ll participate. I was wondering why I was getting random gifts, lol. I’ll have to wait until I’m on my computer tonight though.
