OMG I haven't been on here in months! Literally. All this talk of Roaring Heights... we've purchased (in OE) a home that is out of that era so I've been super busy with moving/updating home/decorating/working full time/toddler etc. I also had a major time period with ZERO working ads that just recently seems to have been…
Thanks for checking... it must have to do with my location or maybe if I switch to my PC it will work. Here I was hoping that maybe they were working on fixing it... LOL.
I've never had a sim die from electrocution either... BUT I get burglars ALL THE TIME. My sim husband always runs down the stairs and fights them, so I don't know if that's why they keep coming back or if it's the lot we live on or the town the fact that our house is big... no idea. Despite the constant burglars, we've…
So do I stay up till 1AM my time for that library...? LOL... first world problems, right? Anyway, hope everyone's weekend has been good. I'm really enjoying the debate about TS3 v. TS4 because I own TS4 but it has been in its box for over a year now. *Someday* I need to actually try it.
@LillaGrisen Thank-you so much... I wasn't expecting any consolation prize (maybe I didn't read very carefully), but it was a nice surprise! Thanks for hosting!
@Jude525 What I meant when I said "registered in Origin" was that my new world, Monte Vista, shows up under "extra content" in Origin as something I own (kind of nice in case they take the store away entirely someday... I could just get it back from Origin if I ever had to re-install). My other $ world, Roaring Heights,…
I feel like I've been away from here for sooo long! (Home buying in OE... I'll probably disappear again when packing/moving commences.) Hope everyone's been doing well. @Jude525 thanks for commiserating with me about the unfortunate code entering issues with Monte Vista :( . Just wanted to let you guys know that I opened…
I would love to enter too!! I own none of the SPs just because I figure I can mod what I want for myself (though, as of now, I've only ever made two things... I'm lazy) and I always told myself that others who make objects put a LOT out there to download. That said, this is the only SP I've actually thought about breaking…
I am also not getting very many ads and probably will end up missing an upcoming deal as a result (I'm only a couple of deals away from moving onto that part where all that's left in the store isn't available on DD). Also, I finally bought Monte Vista. I ordered it from Amazon using Bing points and was excited when the…
@Jude525 I almost bought a similar Lenovo (I wanted small laptop and was looking at a 14" if I remember correctly) and heard HORRIBLE reviews about the graphics card being problematic for people... then Lenovo quit making the one I wanted with NVIDIA graphics as an option. This was last summer. I opted to spend more $$…
@Jude525 I would second that, but do beware that if you buy too good of a screen resolution you can run into problems too (or over-pay for a screen resolution you can't use unless you're using your laptop for other things that require it). I know this because I discovered that running the TS3 in 4K caused my laptop to get…
@limegreenqueen101 THANK-YOU!! And hope everyone had a great New Years and that this year will bring many good things your way. For my prize, I tried to make it easy and just made my wishlist total 2,481. You can keep the extra SP :) I'm just so thrilled to have won!
So here's a question... maybe someone has already tried this... I have a Mac and a PC and play only on the PC. I have only one expansion from Origin and everything else on disc. That one expansion means I have to update to 1.69. If I download my expansion on the Mac can I then somehow transfer it to the PC?? Maybe that is…
@wittanthony1 Thank-you so much for hosting this! Hopefully there will still be a Sims store next year and hopefully I'll be able to sponsor something in something like this. I hope you had a wonderful holiday and that you'll have a wonderful new year too! If I read correctly, I won 1000sp. I've done my best to make it…
THIS. I'm actually really happy that everything moved up 7 minutes because this one will now happen slightly later in the early morning hours so that maybe I can get it since I have to be up early for work that day anyway. Don't know about the rest of you, but for me 7 minutes of extra sleep is a huge deal lol!
Good for both of you!! You're almost there!! New things can be scary but it will also be SO wonderful to be done - trust me!! @Tamaek congrats on owning the store!! Now that you own it all, you'll have to let us know if there is anything really great that you didn't expect to be great :) I've been buying everything I own…
@scillakees THANK-YOU so much!! That was totally unexpected and, after a long and rather stressful day, it's nice to be reminded of the kindness of others. Now, I'm debating not going to bed for a while longer!
I JUST logged in to the site in time to get this one. That started a TON of cascading deals for me... probably all stuff I'd missed getting before, but whatever, I'm happy. Hope anyone else who needed this one got it too!!!
I too read this! I agree as well. So far I've spent no real money except full price on the base game (technically, my husband paid for that) and quite a few EPs, all of which were on sale. I feel like that isn't bad, given the amount of time I've spent playing the game. I suppose, for people who did spend money on store…
This is me too. I usually point farm if I sit down to watch TV. I suppose I earn less since I'm not really paying much attention to point farming, but I only get 600ish after watching an hour of TV. Back when I got boating ads, it was easy to get over 1000 points in a day. For a while, I also had cancer treatment ads that…
I got Roaring Heights for "free" by farming Bing points. There's an idea if you want to do that. Problem is... I bought it with Amazon gift cards that you could theoretically spend on anything. That said, Amazon usually matches Origin's sales. I'm currently waiting to see if Origin will have some type of holiday sale on…
I have nothing on DD until Thursday... wish MMAO would work for me! That said, I've never seen Hidden Springs on there, but I've seen almost all of the other worlds (with the exception of Lunar Lakes and the paid ones). I was sort of hoping that it's just luck of the draw and that once a person owns most of the store there…
Still no MMAO for me :-/ Oh well, can't complain since point farming while watching Walking Dead gained me quite a bit to cover the DDs at the end of this month. @neenahhh I picked up both the large as life movie screen and barrier to entry from the March 2013 compilation after buying the wedding set and getting a big…
