The Sims

i used to have all types of sims, vacction date the extra packs, party ones and the pet one, love the doggies, and ive had a few more too. i just was so addicted to them. its just so fun to control thier lives ya no. i was doing so good on this one sim of mine, i almost had $800,000 dollars in her account!
anyone else have a sim facination tell me, and whats the highest income youve gotten too? how many hours did you play a day? me i got to the point of an all day playing, it was that addictive. oh and did you hear there making the baby sims not only grew into children but adults too! awesome.
right now im a workaholic and dont have any time for games really. and alos i had given all my computer games to my brother, so im without sims completely. but maybe thats a good thing...
 
I like that game. I made two women fight and slap each other lol. It was because this woman was flirting with her boyfriend lol.
 
I really enjoyed it, but I'd wandered on to something else by the time the expansion packs started coming out. Then, about a year ago, I tried to get back into it for a bit with a few of the expansions I'd found in a bundle for sale. It was fun, but I kinda felt like I'd already "been there, done that", so it didn't addict me like I thought it would.
 
I must admit to a worrying addiction to building a wall around my Sims and then sit there watch them go to the toilet continually until they die a slow and nasty death - but then i get to reload and they're happy bunnies again!!

The games are pretty fun, me and Ice have all the add-ons except for the Superstar one, which we couldnt be bothered with.

My tactic is to lure people home from downtown. Woo them. Wed them. And lock them away in a cell. They don't need a toilet, they clean up their mess as and when they make it. If you give them a fridge they'll only get ideas. I keep them alive for as long as it takes for the kidnapper to harvest their friends. Sometimes I keep them as a house slave, but it's still best to provide a cell so they don't get in the way when I'm wooing the next victim.

The other option is to maintain a harem of worker slaves. The home owner pops in to visit them once a day, to keep them sweet. Their cells are self sufficient, though far from luxurious. They spend their days working and their nights weeping and studying.

When it comes to killing them, I like adding a fireplace and a flammable sofa to their pokey cell. Or sending them for a swim and removing the steps from the pool.
 
You know, somewhere, theres a whole website dedicated to the multi and various ways to nastily kill your Sims, but i dont have the energy to find it! :)

I think it's more fun to find them out yourself.

The thing I don't like about the game is needing friends to get promotions. It's so much more fun starting fights and making enemies.
 
I thought I was the only one who did horrid things like what Litany and Phil do! But let me share what I do because I'm so bored right now, I have nothing else to do.

Usually I create a family of about 10. Then when I get them into a house already, I cheat and raise their money to about $3,000,000. Then I make a huge, huge, awesome house. I also make a huge swimming pool! I get them all to swim AND I remove that thing that gets them out of the water (I forgot what it's called! 0_o) Then they all die there! Haha!

Or I make some sort of mental ward, where the rooms have no doors, only windows. I put all the characters in there (with a cheat also that gets you to pick up the sim characters) and they starve to death! Hahaha! It's fun.

If you want to know the cheats:
To get the money up, you press on the keyboard SHIFT+CTRL+ALT+C all at the same time. I think there's a useless key there but that's just what I remember. Then a box will appear, type there (if it's the first version of sims) "klapaucius". If it's the one with other installments, use "rosebud". Now so that you don't have to type in rosebud over and over again, type in ?!?!?!?! as many times as you want with a number at the end. Example is ?!?!?!?!?!90000, press enter and when something appears that says "no such cheat" you just enter and enter and enter til you're happy with the amount. On picking up things, that aren't "pickable" (like the sims) you still click SHIFT+CTRL+ALT+C and type in "move_objects on". You get to move them when you're in build/buy mode. To get rid of the text box, just enter "klapaucius"/"rosebud" again. =P

I don't think you needed to know that because there's no challenge and these can easily be picked off from the internet. But as I said, I'm bored. =/
 
Personally, I put myself into a neighbourhood with my friend, we build the largest house possible full of traps and outfacing domestication and then invite all the girls over, romance them, and then trap them in our maze of secret passageways. The winner is the guy with the most gravestones outside his side of the house once the whole neighbourhood - but two - has mysteriously vanished.

Favourite tricks include "the corridor" whereby I call the woman down the hall and as she heads along it, I switch to design mode and remove the doors trapping her in, and the "meal for one" in which she follows me into a room with a fridge, a worktop, and a cooker (I don't generally have any cooking skills) and then cook for her, the inablility to cook results in a fire (and there's no fire alarm) which I run from while she stands next to it and panics...until she burns to death and I add another headstone to the garden. :)
 
I've always been attracted to Sims but have been avoiding it so that it doesn't suck up all my free time. But I had no idea you could kill them off in such creative ways. Hmmmm.

Personally, I'd have asked the boyfriend to leave and then got the two girls romantically involved until they ended up playing around in the Love-O-Matic bed.
 
I used to download loads of Sims stuff (had about 3Gb of hard disk full of skins and furniture and applciations for making your own along with the Sims File Cop and numerous other apps).

Changed the dog to some evil looking tentacle beast, for example. :)

I think the site was The Sims Resource.

My god! I never dreamed of killing off my Sims -- I guess I'm not nearly as warped as I once thought. :eek:

Don't you find it gets really boring if you're not torturing them?

Ummm... no. Well... maybe after a few weeks of playin', yeah. But I just found another game to play -- it honestly never crossed my mind to torture them just for the hell of it. :eek:

Build a house with no toilet, fill it with ten people, and then place bets on who will wet themselves first.

I figured it was torture enough cursing my sims with having children. Can't imagine taking away their toliet!
 
There's no point to children. On the rare occasions that they bring home any cash, it still isn't enough to cover the cost of keeping them. It's not like you can even keep them home everyday to do the house keeping and tend the crops. You're better off creating a slave unit for each couple that can stay home and drudge while they live their glamorous lives in the sun.
