Welcome To Legacity

Got quite a lot of play in, so this’ll be a fairly long update… Current residents are:

Rufus: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Lauren: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Leanda: G4 adult, Popularity aspiration
Rachel: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Leo: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Darryl: G4 teen, Knowledge aspiration
Isobel: G5 child
(more…)

Our current residents are:

Rufus: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Lauren: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Leanda: G4 adult, Popularity aspiration
Rachel: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Leo: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Darryl: G4 teen, Knowledge aspiration
Isobel: G5 baby

Seven people in the space, so still space for one more; hopefully Leo’s alien offspring. And Rufus is due to pass away fairly soon, so I won’t have overcrowding problems for a while, at least.

Anyway, on with the update…

Well, the birth of G5 means i’m about halfway through the Legacy challenge, so let’s see how I’m doing so far:

Generations: 5 pts (5 generations)
Family Net Worth: 2 pts (don’t know the exact value, but it was about $175,000 last time I checked)
Platinum Graves 2 pts (Lucy and Benjamin, I lost them when I had to move to a new lot, but I had them once, so they count)
Family Friends: 2 pts (8 friends, all of them Leanda’s. I hope I have a Popularity sim left in the house when I reach the end of the challenge, or I probably won’t get more than 1 point here)
Impossible Wants: 2 pts (Rufus and Lauren both got the 10 kids they wanted, so I get two points for it. And Leo is only two Creativity skill points away from maxing all his skills already, so unless he somehow dies within the next few days, I’d say I’m pretty much guaranteed to get that one too.)
Shrink Visits: -2 pts (Sarah and Leo)
Inter-Bred Births: -0 pts (Not going to have any, either)

Career Rewards: 0 pts (2 pts for all 10, so far I have (or did have) Slacker, Business, Athletic, Military, Law Enforcement and Politics. I’ll probably regain all the once I lost in the move eventually, but I’ll count myself as having them if I don’t)
NPCs in bloodline: 3 pts (Lucy (Maid), Lauren (Pizza Delivery), Leo (Gardener))
Ghosts: 2 pts (White and blue, although I lost them both in the move.)

Visitor Deaths: -0 pts.
Alien Births: 0 pts (Leo is going to do a LOT of stargazing once he gets those last Creativity points)
10th Generation Twins: 0 pts.
2 Social Bunny Romance: 0 pts. (I might actually try to do this at some point)

Which all adds up to a total of 14 points, which probably isn’t particularly great for this stage of the challenge.

Starring:

Rufus: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Lauren: G3 elder, Family aspiration
Leanda: G4 adult, Popularity aspiration
Rachel: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Leo: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Darryl: G4 child

Well, there did seem to be any reason to delay Leanda and Leo’s wedding, so I got down to it straight away. However, I directed Leanda to the phone to throw a wedding party, but she just picked it up and put it straight back again. So, I just had her invite a few friends one at a time, instead.

(Wedding guests, from left to right: Kennedy Cox, Ricky Cormier, Rachel Reeves (bride’s sister), Rufus Reeves (bride’s father), Marie Mazza and Darryl Reeves (bride’s brother). Lauren was there too, in front of Rachel, but Leanda is blocking the view of her.)

OK, current residents:

Lauren: G3 adult, Family aspiration
Leanda: G4 adult, Popularity aspiration
Rachel: G4 adult, Knowledge aspiration
Laura: G4 teen, Romance aspiration

Darryl and Katerina woke up early in the morning, and had a philosophical discussion on the nature of time, over a game of pinball.
