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 4 - Round 7 - 9 Oak Square (Collin)

Welcome to 9 Oak Square, designed by Tigerblue of TSR, rebuilt by me on a 4x4 lot.

This is the new home of Kirsty Wetstein and her intended spouse Weldon Collin will be joining us shortly.

Kirsty Wetstein
Aspiration: Knowledge
LTW: Become Criminal Mastermind
Neat-2, Outgoing-8, Active-2, Playful-6, Nice-7
Libra
Turn-Ons: Black Hair & Fitness, Turn-Off: Facial Hair

Kimberly Trimble, you stop your staring right this minute. She's just happy to see him. Besides, you're a grown woman who wears a teddy bear shirt. I don't think you have room to be judgemental.

Obligatory Move-In picture

Weldon Collin
Aspiration: Family
LTW: Graduate 3 Children from College
Neat-4, Outgoing-4, Active-4, Playful-7, Nice-6
Aquarius
Turn-Ons: Hats & Custom Hair, Turn-Off: Formal Wear

As you can see, Kirsty already got her makeover, and I'm actually ok with what Weldon is wearing. Besides, it's cute that his shirt goes so well with her skirt. Weldon brought $9,000 with him by the way.

Since Weldon hates formal clothes they decided to get married right there on the sidewalk. Besides, he's a family sim and we mustn't waste time!

The welcome wagon once again consisted of just Tina. Where's everyone else?

Must...make...baby...

No luck, so they made sure to maintain the mood and keep trying. After about four tries they were successful. Bless dating, because otherwise this baby marathon would have them on the brink of death.

Having successfully insured the birth of at least one child, Kirsty heads to the computer. She's in luck! There's an opening in Crime. The downside is that she doesn't work until Friday morning.

Gotta keep her busy so she's opened her Robot shop. It's got a small selection at the moment, but that's for the best since she needs to learn the register and restocking.

Since Weldon is a Family sim the first thing he wants to do after getting married and starting a baby is to gain cooking and cleaning points. Happy to oblige. Weldon is a Psychic Phone Pal right now. I had meant for him to go into Law or Business, but no openings in either.

"Darn customers, always breaking my robots"

Our first Customer Loyalty Star!

Ok, it's official, we no longer hate Ricky, he just bought the two most expensive robots we had in stock.

Umm, yeah, 'cause you forgot that you spent most of Monday trying to get pregnant right?

"Yes! Energizer! Thank you Plumbbob Diety!"

Weldon's decided to help out by learning to make robots.

This is Kirsty's idea of running a business.

Hmm, left over college pizza. Oh well, at least there's no prep time. It's hard running a business when you're pregnant.

Uh-oh, baby time huh? I was hoping you would wait till next round.

It's a Girl!

Welcome to the family little Jessica. She seems to mostly look like her mother, except for her eyes. No complaints so far.

Looks like we'll end the round with Kirsty munching on her daughter's tummy.

Wow, that's quite a swanky house! It's cute that they match. And I loved how there was a snapdragon next to the bed, LOL!

Oooh, robot shop... I have yet to activate a Servo... I really should do that one of these days. Badges just seem to take so long. /sigh!

Hooray for baby Jessica!
