I have a feeling she didn't say you couldn't add walls and rooms if you start playing with the house. So after you're done with your entry, you can do with it however you wish. And if that means more bedrooms then so be it. lol :)

Looks awesome!!

I love the apartment buildings. You did a wonderful job on recreating it from the screenshot. :)

Thanks! There are a few things I'd do differently if I were to build the apartments again, but I'm pretty happy with them. I had to bulldoze and replace the west and central lot in order to fit the building there. Otherwise I couldn't the balconies to face the ocean.

Your apartment building looks just like the one across the street from me. Very "West Coast". :)

Excellent, as usual. I think I'm going to have to change my playing style. Yours is much more fun. :D

Thanks! I'm sure my type of gameplay would be frustrating for players who are really goal oriented and trying to have their sims reach the top of their careers or achieve their lifetime wishes because most won't, but in reality, how many people really get everything they want in life? I like the unpredictability of it. There's a 10x10 challenge out there for "Garden of Eden." That will be in the next episode. I also dropped down my science center I made using your shell challenge awhile back. A lot of sims were wanting to take classes or join careers only available through the science career. I also need to build a theater because a lot of sims want music lessons. I thought about just putting a rabbithole rug in the music room of the school, but the rabbbithole also has the movie theater option. I wish there was a way to separate live performance related options from the movies. I also wish the mobster career was connected to the criminal rabbithole instead of the restaurant rabbithole, but I'll take what I can get. I remodeled the art gallery to have a gift shop and left the old section where I was trying sell artwork and gems empty in case I get a sim (maybe Boyd Medley) who wants to have an exhibition of his own paintings. One thing I like about this type of gameplay is there are so many ways to go with it.

I get frustrated with the game limitations too. I'm always trying to make it do things it wasn't built to do. In your case it's specific game play and in mine it's building.
