Makin' The Band: The Dew Drops «1234567…16...Next Go

LadyEmillye

I thought this might be a fun little interactive game with prizes. Makin' the band comes with a lot of challenges. Finding the right bandmates, practicing, booking gigs and dealing with all the fame and fortune that come with it. Sometimes, for the good of the band, the leader has to kick bandmates out, sometimes, they have to go in a totally different direction, and sometimes, band members want to go it alone because they feel overlooked.

Whatever the case may be, in this Makin' the Band, you will be able to submit a male or female YA as either a bass player, a keyboardist, or a drummer. Different decisions will be asked of you, because it is interactive. These decisions will help shape the band's future. Some will be in game, and some will be made up by me. Unlike my sim, whom I will be playing during the duration of this, your sims will be on free will with only their hunger needs taken care of to start with. Hopefully they are able to care for themselves, because if not, it may mean they get kicked out from the band, and a new spot will be available. When that happens, the Title of the Thread will have a Seeking Bandmate sign up.

Some of the prizes will include gifts from the store, like new clothes, new shoes, new hairstyle. Others will include having more needs taken care of by me. Each time a prize is available for your sim, I'll include it in the decision. For example, Decision A gets you a brand new pair of shoes, while Decision B gets you ___________ depends on what it is. It could be kicked from the band, a privilege/need being revoked.

Entry form is really simple. All sims will be custard checked.

About Me:


A special prize will be given for the About Me Story: 500sp
A consolation prize will be given by me of undetermined value if your sim does not make the cut.
All other prizes will be awarded as time goes on.

Any questions? Please ask and I will answer it below.

Awesome, and on that note, I guess I need a due date on the sims. We'll say March 21st for right now, and if needed, I'll change it up

This sounds like so much fun! When I was younger, I always dreamed of being in a band
I'm currently going through the process of re-installing my store content, so it might take me a while to create my Sim, but I'll definitely be sending one in

Yay. Awesome.

@LadyEmillye do you only need 4 sims or can everybody send a sim in and you pick a couple from them? Or do I maybe misunderstand the whole concept

LadyEmillye

I only need three Sims. But if more than 3 submit a Sim. I will choose. I need a bass player. A keyboardist and a drummer, my Sim is going to be the guitar player.

LadyEmillye

I may choose some different roles like a roadie, back up dancers and a manager with their own set of decisions to make. But that would be tricky.

LadyEmillye

And I think I can have more than 4 in the band but for now I am going with three.

SjappielovePaul

Okay, great! I think I might enter

rosey1579

Hmm... Maybe...
I DO like excuses to write cliche backstory... Hmmm.....

LadyEmillye

Woot! Sounds great you two

Tip

Joining!

Let the muffin band commence! @rosey1579

LadyEmillye

Sounds great. I will see about posting up my Sim later tonight so you guys can check her out.

girlwhocriedtaylor

So basically...

I create a sim. I upload them, you download them, and then you put them in your game. And they have to take care of themselves or they might get eliminated.

Am I understanding this correctly? (I've never done things like this before)

Also, would I just write up the About Me and put it with my entry form?

LadyEmillye

Right. But as it is interactive, you would get tagged for any decisions that pertain to your sim.

For example: Your sim should really practice with the band, but they want to go out to the movies, which do you choose. Something like that. Some of the decisions will involve prizes, like if you choose to practice with the band, you will get a new outfit to wear to the gig.

And yes, the About me goes with the entry form

girlwhocriedtaylor

Ok, thank you.

Name: Haukea Ikai

Instrument: Keyboard/Piano
About Me: Haukea Ikai grew up on the beautiful islands of Isla Paradiso. When she was a teenager, her parents gave her a keyboard for her birthday. Haukea was entranced by it and would play it every day when she came home from helping her parents at their resort after school and in the mornings before school. Her parents decided that it would be best to send her to music school, so off she went. Haukea learned many things at her school. When she graduated, she decided that she wanted to have a career in music, so she joined a band.

LadyEmillye

Awesome. I am at work right now so will update and such when I get home. But she looks so pretty.

LadyEmillye

Just got home, so not going to update anything right now, maybe tomorrow.

LadyEmillye

Late getting home again. I will at least custard check, but my vaykay will start after tomorrow, so after a nice long nap, I will do more on this

LadyEmillye

@girlwhocriedtaylor your entry has been custard checked and it passed. Your entry has been placed on the first page and I will give til the 27th for anyone else wanting to participate.
