These are the stories of the citizens of Knowlton - A Sims 2 Prosperity Challenge. If you love it, if you hate it, if you saw something you wanted to talk about, PLEASE leave comments. I'm a sad pathetic human, and I live for comments.

For those of you not familiar with what a Prosperity Challenge is, it's a Sims 2 Challenge in which the main focus is to build a prosperous community from scratch. There are a few catches though, everything, including your starting families are determined by the role of a dice (or in my case a randomizer). For the complete rules and setup you have two options the Yahoo! Group or the BBS thread at the official site.

The quick low down on the newly created Knowlton; Knowlton is completely deserted. It's set out in a grid, so at some point in the past it may have even been a city, but that may have been hundreds of years ago, because other than roads for miles around all you see is grass plains. Four daring families have decided (okay have been forced) to make a new start here. So come meet these daring folks, hear their stories, and wish them luck folks, they're going to need it!

Week 3 - Round 5.4 - Sim State University

When we last left Whispering Winds Aremis and Samantha were chatting their way to 30 best friends each, Cadence was painting her way to fortune, and Ricky (Kronos Dorms) was sleezing on anything in a skirt. Let's check in on the kids for the final time. Three of them will be graduating at the end of the round.

Well, they couldn't very well let Aremis out do them could they?!


Cadence has discovered the new bar she asked for. Great, now I'll have sims lined up outside all the bathrooms.


Well what did you think was going to happen you stupid Man-Cow?


One morning Aremis went out to the garage after I'd been renovating and discovered new fun ways to build up his body skill. He's so good he even has his own personal cheerleader!


Ricky's just over for a visit, but apparently despite my dislike of him, he's got what it takes because she started checking him out. That or she knows that I'm mean to Ricky and hoping she can get some action.


Aremis finally made it to 30 Best Friends and here's the proof!


I just thought this was a great picture illustrating all of their majors.


This house paints together. They also apparently share one brain because they're all painting the same picture including Cadence. I checked later.


Man-Cow, you're such a big strong manly Man-Cow, I've got something that I need your help with....


Yeah, I was trying to electrocute the Man-Cow, unfortunately he seems to be a good repair person.


Well, Senior Year is almost done for Aremis and Samantha, and Cadence isn't far behind, so Ricky's moving in to hold down the fort. There goes the reputation of this Greek House.


And the first thing he does is invite one of his floozies over for a makeover and a date. This is Lindsay Ebadi. I'm almost as mean to Ricky's dates as I am to him.


See, the problem with the hottub is we can now see Melanie's face again, but at least she looks better with the long hair than the spikes.


Woohoo Number Two. I'm saving up all the public woohoos for later when I have fewer people on the lot to slow down my poor computer. It's only two years old, but this game is pretty hard on it. Then again, I can't afford a $6,000 computer.


And this is the newest resident of Whispering Winds. Her name is Storm. Yup, like the X-men. I just wanted a name that suited the name of the house. Hopefully the small pets hack I installed will prevent her from dying prematurely because I spent too long in build mode.


Sam just got back from her final final exam. She of course graduated Summa Cum Laude. She got on the phone to let Marissa know and that made them best friends. Time to say good-bye to college life right now Sam, before your aspiration falls again.


Hmm, well, I can live with the capris, but that shirt is a definite no-go. As soon as possible you will be getting new clothes.


Then is was Aremis' turn. What a good boy, and he knows it. Looking sharp Aremis! I feel kind of bad that he and Samantha didn't get a graduation party, but I just want them back at home making babies.


The next day was Cadence's turn. She also graduated Summa Cum Laude. Her clothes aren't bad either.


And that leaves Ricky alone with Storm until Amber and Eddie are ready to start college. I hope he remembers to feed her.
