Addendum: Seems like it was roughly a week after sending my last application. I just needed to have more patience ... and now I am able to enroll for all distinguished degrees :)

Not sure if the Llama Mascot costume (that you can see on costume parties) was introduced with Seasons or not. If yes, this may be another hint at University
-
I guess you mean "Pre Seasons" in your first sentence (as: "Before Seasons"). "Post Seasons" would fit into your 2nd sentence (as it means "After Seasons")
-
I have the EP for a while, but only now (with the start of seasons) actually got my own pet for my family ... a cat. And yes, IMHO she is entertaining and a great addition to my family. Cannot say anything about dogs, however (which, after all I read, are more needy/care intensive)
-
Usually it is 1 basement level (I live in europe, practically every house has a basement) and around 2 levels aboveground
-
There are a few fixed holidays per year (IIRC Winterfest and New Years Eve) and a lot of randomly selected In some years there may even be a full season without holiday (happened to me one year in summer)
-
I only would like it if it would change your current system (with the magic dresser) into a system like we still had in Sims 2, where you had to buy everything, including your outfits I actually liked that you had to buy your clothes and other personal things (like MP3 players for jogging) and not automatically had them…

House size and especially, number of items/furniture in the house (AFAIK)
-
Well, in europe it usually is totally the other way round. Commuter universities are the norm and not the exception. While there are students living in dormitories near the university, the majority travels to the university from outside (which is why in many german universities, for example, the semester fee also includes…
-
I would actually like a mix of 1 and 2: A new University neighborhood with dormitories, fraternity houses and other things for students. and A "Get to work"-Building/Territory where your students tgo during lab/lecture hours This would reflect real life universities (at least in europe), where you have the possibility to…
-
I have only little doubts that it will be university. I am just running a new years eve costume party and one of the guests arrived as a college sports mascot (a Llama in a sports tricot with small wings) Considering that the Sims team IIRC often gave secret hints about new EPs in the past and considering that each…
-
Definitely University similar to how it was in Sims 2. IMHO Sims 2 University was closest to some kind of "real" university experience (whereas Sims 3 University IMHO was a little bit too much on partying)
-
I have to admit that the thunderstorms are a good reason to change my behavior and turn the game sound on more often. Now I can understand why my former main charcter (now deceased) was so afraid of them. (her daughter, my new main character, isn't afraid of them, however, but she was a girl scout and therefore used to…

After my first winter I have to correct myself. The use of the Thermostat set to hot roughly tripled my utility bills
-
Thanks, crinrict, left a note in that thread. Actually I think that problem 1 and 2 are related (in both cases the engine flat out "decides" that an automatic, secondary, task at hand is more important than anything the Sim does now, no matter what Sims need bars are, or whether or not the task (that the Sim curently…

Tried to exit and save the game and then restart? Has often helped with some of my (less serious) glitches in the game
-
Occasionally. My Sims are more addicted to Computergames and playing card games at the game table
-
I rarely play SIms with sound nowadays. Last time I rather regularly played Sims with sound may have been with Sims 2. I really loved the college rock radio of Sims 2 university ... especially the simlish version of The Perishers - Sway
-
Could it be that his victim was caught in a cycle of opening and closing the umbrella? Because that is something annoying I found occasionally, for example in holiday in he forest of Granite Falls. Every few steps my sim would close his umbrella (dunno why, either because she had some rain cover by trees, or because she…

I can assure you that your assumptions about cologne are on the totally wrong track :smiley: Not only does cologne (as most other cities in northrhine westphalia) have rather few days with snow, but it also is totally unlike Windenburg. Cologne is a regular major german city, where you also won't find all too many…
-
Maybe putting a roof over the Clothesline ... or moving to Oasis Springs :smiley:

Cannot say I have a favorite season. The only season I slightly dislike is summer, which is a little bit too hot too often. But aside from this ... I like the winters snow (despite having slightly too many Blizzards in Willow Creek) and I like the more moderate temperatures in spring and fall, which are good for gardening…
-
Yep ... and that was the point of my posting, to illustrate in an example, that the protective capabilities come from the slot, not from the actual clothes you put into that slot
-
You can disable the filters (by clicking on the "x" for each filter item) so you get the clothing categories that actually aren't meant to be put into these categories. This way you can put a Bikini into your winter clothing slot and this way you can also get your Sim to crossdress (i.e. by disabling the gender-filter for…
-
ALso, you can only plant plants when it is not too cold. If the temperatures are freezing, you won't be able to plant any plants in your garden (as the soil is frozen) (but not every day in winter is necessarily a day with freezing temperatures ... often there are days when the temperatures are warm enough to plant. Also,…
-
Reason is that it is not the looks o the clothes that determine its properties, but rather the function of the clothing slot where you put them. So, if you put a winter coat into your Sims "Cool clothes" slot, s/he will wear it without any heat problems in the hottest summer. And if you equip your Sim with a Bikini in the…
-
Perhaps the probability for snow in the city is just a little bit lower than for certain other regions (like Willow Creek)
-
And do these babies have any special attributes? Like being especially scary for birds, or being especially combustible?
-
In real life actually some trees, for example beech trees, have a highly conductive bark. That means, if a lightning strikes such a tree, the whole electric energy of the lightning is transferred down into the surrounding earth, leaving the tree undamaged. Which is why a famour german saying: "Buchen sollst Du suchen,…

Reminds me of Susan Sto Helit, the Granddaughter of DEATH in Terry Pratchetts Discworld :smiley:
Howdy, Stranger!
