    So this table has it's own interactions? Maybe in the future before the store closes we could get a table that adds romantic interactions like we had in ts2.

    Hello Cat :) This table may have romantic interactions? :shock: Forgive my ignorance, but is the tea set joined to the table? I apologise if we have been told and I have missed this somewhere, or is it just the tea set and tray that is the pc item? *blush*

    From the way it read a few pages back the tea set is attached or connected to the table.
    Thank you for your response Cat :)

    Kate, I believe Cat is correct and it's been pretty much confirmed that the tea set is joined to the table. I believe the Store team designed it this way to solve the mega-issue of trying to route 4 different sims to the same table to drink tea at the same time and not having them jump up when they are finished. :D
    Thank you Mistletoe, I missed this information :) That makes sense that it has been created that way :) Getting sims to dine and chat with one another proved difficult with the It's Business Time Industrial Oven and Menus :(

    Hello Jase :) I like the Edwardian Expression Kitchen Set. I would like to see this added to. A Bathroom Set would be lovely :)

    Question: can the tea set be put on different tables or is it all one object? (Love the table... just curious).
    I'm courthouse about this too. I love the table but I would love it if the tea set were something you could put on any table. Either way I'm just super excited for tea and learning more about this set as a whole. Maybe we'll even see a certain L-shaped staircase make its way back to the store if they worked the bugs out of it. Great Set already Store Team, and we haven't even seen the whole thing lol

    L-shaped stairs would make me happy. So would an explanation as to why you are courthouse about this. :lol: :oops: I'm sorry if english isn't your first language. This is probably just a typo. But I find it very funny. :lol: (no offense meant) :D

    Lol English is most definitely my first language, I have no idea why my auto correct on my iPad turned "curious" into "courthouse" but upon re-reading that post, I laughed too!

    I don't have any gadgets with auto correct so I forget about that happening. :D
    I thought you must have had some intense legal events on you mind. hahaha No runaway imagination here. No. no. move along. nothing to see here :lol:

    I'm waiting to see what other Premium Content items come with it. If it is jam making/preserves plus a few other items I think I'll get it - but probably not on day 1. Unless it is discounted. I got caught by the buying too early to get the belateted early bird discount on the carnival set.

    If the Premium Content is just the tea set - then I'll be waiting for a sale.

    However, if we do get the clock that teaches out sims to Waltz sometime this year, I'll be rushing in to get that one.

    I've never been over excited for tea - I don't drink it myself. And scones would be a 'nice to have'.

    A tea set?

    Ok, I admit, this is pretty exciting news :mrgreen:

    I'm not sure if it's been already mentioned, but I'm really, really hoping that we can use some of the herbs/fruit that we have in the game to get different flavoured tea. It wouldn't change much in terms of game play, yet I think it would make for a nice touch.

    I agree! And it would be great if we can use the honey to sweeten our tea!

    This would go great with the rococo set! :mrgreen:

    All my fine aristocrats drinking tea and gossiping, speaking of art, and music.

    Maybe we can get more rococo content to go with this huh?

    Anyone for tea? :P

    @SimGuruTaterTot

    It would be nice to know the process and development of the store team when they choose what set to make next.

    I'd love to know if the team is even interested in making new CAS items for a petition I am supporting has 106 signatures (The Maternity Wear or Enabled wear Store Set) and I'd love to know if adding more sigs will get this made or if there is no shot at all.



    The tea set petition was created in April of this year with 47 signatures and it's become the marketed set for July.

    There was a Prom Set Petition created in 02/2013 with 38 signatures and the Sims 3 Store came out with the Homecoming Set 01/2014.

    Then there was a Haunted House Build Buy Petition
    created 03/2014 with 88 signatures
    The Sims 3 Store came out with The Now and Then Century Manor Set 05/2014.

    *Update* Carnival Set Petition Created 02/2014 with 94 signatures and counting.
    Carnival Set pending arrival 06/2014
    The Petition was bookmarked by SimGuruCopeland..

    The maternity wear and enabled wear petition was created in January 2014 with currently 106 signatures and there's no word about that.....

    Thank you for your concern.

    There were requests and hopes for a tea set long before April of this year. I've been asking for it for at least 2 years, and I'm pretty sure HollownessDevour was asking long before that. I think they look at the desire overall, not just petitions, but how many people have said, hey I want this, instead of agreeing with another person's idea via petition.

    As far as maternity wear, some sets have included maternity enabled items. Off the top of my head, the pink dress in the Tudor set was good for maternity. So, they do listen.

    Just my 2 cents. Hopefully you get an official answer.

    Just echoing Seriphina's comments. Things like a tea set have been loooooong requested (see this thread from 2012... you have to scroll down but a tea set is requested under 'other homecrafts': http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/576295.page). So, it's not like the store team waved their magic wand and suddenly a tea set appeared! I believe it takes quite a while to develop a premium content item. But SGC did say last week that the way they choose what to make next is by looking at forum trends.

    There are other factors. SGC recently said that they're not focusing on CAS at the moment. I do tend to jump to conclusions, so I could be wrong, but I suspect maybe they just don't have a CAS artist available at the moment. :?
