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 6-4 - Sim State Uni - Whispering Winds


In this round the girls are entering their Junior year of University and Eddie is entering his Sophomore year of university.

Now that the college kids have snapdragons writing their term papers isn't quite as bad a drag, although they're still pretty bummed out after.


Kirsty met and fell in love with a nice young man named Weldon Collin.


She quickly decided to take the initiative and proposed to him. He quickly said yes. After all, Kirsty's a great catch.


Following the tradition of changing your dates, Amber decided to give Oliver Graham a makeover.


Here he is after she's worked her magic.
They also fell in love....
Shared a first kiss....
And got engaged. I'm actually rather surprised. Amber is so traditional I would have thought she'd wait for Oliver to propose to her, but apparently her sister's been talking to her about the modern world.


Gee thanks Weldon. That'll really help when you and Kirsty buy your first house.


Kirsty and Eddie have a secret. You see, now that love is in the air, Amber's been asking Eddie why he hasn't found someone to settle down with. Kirsty know's that Eddie's waiting for April, but they can't tell Amber, because she's constantly going around spewing hearts at Eddie even though she's in love with Colin. She'll hopefully be married to Colin before she finds out about Eddie and April.


The tragic demise of a cow has sent the Man-Cow fleeing from the greek house. I may remove it and let him come back, but it's just so funny to watch!


These guys have been so busy that I had to order all three of them to get on the phone before they lost all their friends.


So what do they do as soon as they get off the phone(s)? They decided to form a research group. You know, I love to read, but even I'm tempted to call these guys bookworms.


"Did you tell them yet that I got my Gold Toy Making Badge?" No, but you just did. He also became Big Sim on Campus.


Amber has convinced the others that worshipping nature is the way to go. (Truthfully I got bored at the end of the semester and decided to have them meditate for a day)


Kirsty learned to float first.


Then next morning Amber figured out the trick of it too. Eddie's the only one still earth bound.

I still really love that kimono! And oohh... nice meditation circle. ;) Lots of love going around... but then again, that's really the only useful thing about actually playing through University.
