1. Sim Suburb '17 3N-4M
Paul Smith, Happy Sky, and Taye Black arrive on campus and the first thing they do is buy some new clothes. Then, after getting used to their new environments, they declare majors. Happy is an art major, Paul studies economics, and Taye majors in philosophy. Finding himself with some free time, Taye looks for romance. He doesn't have to look far; as he rekindles things with his high school girlfriend Erin Twain, he's also got his eyes on dormmate Happy Sky.

2. Suburb Boys '14 / Walton Family 1A 3N-4T
In the final semester of their college careers, the group puts studying at top priority. Jake has forgiven Aaron for the flirting incident. Erin's high school sweetheart Taye Black has come to campus, but she's not going out of her way to see him. Not that she has to; his dorm is right next to the '14 house. Just before finals, Aaron gets in a shouting match with some guy in a llama costume. Everybody makes Dean's List except for Aaron with an A and Caryl with an A-.
The job search begins as soon as everyone's stuff is unpacked at the new house in Sim Suburb. Afterall, a new house costs a lot of simoleons, and the group is broke.
Rather than go for the slacker's career path, Jake is surprisingly qualified for a job as a cartoon voice. Caryl fiils an empty seat on City Council in a special election with an apathetic voter turnout. Brandon is drafted to a minor league rugby team from somewhere on the far side of Sim City. Taye Black comes to visit and his relationship with Erin seems to really take off. Aaron and Erin remember the extra money their parents had them store away, so suddenly there's cash to finish decorating the house and to buy everyone new clothes. By mid-Tuesday, everyone's pretty much settled in.

Is anyone reading this? Do you have a favorite character? Are you wondering why there seems to be so much nudity? (Admins: if it's a problem I'll remove them, but some of my sims have nudist tendencies...)
Anything you'd like to see in the future of Sim Suburb? (As of this posting, I haven't played beyond what you've read here...)
leanne27_h:
Hey. I read it. It's good. It must have taken you ages to do. And yes...what's up with the nudity! :) Good work, though!

I'm glad somebody is enjoying it. And it generally takes me a few weeks to play each household and complete a SSG volume, but that of course depends quite a bit on how much and how often I play The Sims. I posted Volume 1 here when I was about halfway through playing Volume 3, which got posted just a couple of days after I finished it, and I haven't played much since then, but will be getting back to it very soon.
As far as the nudity goes, well, clothes just don't seem like a universal necessity to me. (Yes, I'm a nudist.) So I got the nudist mod by Cammyboy (or is it Crammyboy?) available at http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com or at http://www.sexysims2.com . And some of my families tend to go without clothes most of the time, especially smaller households. The Sky family and their close neighbors the Blacks are pretty much naked whenever they can get away with it. The Newburgs and the Fishburgs are also naked some of the time. Most other families stay dressed most of the time. Anyway, I'll always blur nudity in any snapshots I post here. (The in-game censorship is disabled, partly because it never worked right for me anyway.)
I'd be playing Cham Var Cham right now, except the A/C is broken at my house, and running my own computer would make my room warm, which means it'd get hot in the morning when I need to sleep. Funny thing about Cham Var Cham, I took several pictures of a pledge fighting (and losing to) the llama mascot, and I can't remember why...

Think you know who all the sims are in the Sim Suburb Gossip logo? Maybe you just love a challenge? Well, here you go!
[attach]30691[/attach]
If you can name all 17 pictured sims correctly, I'll grant you one wish to influence what happens in Sim Suburb! I'm fairly certain all 17 of them have also been pictured in the Sim Suburb Gossip thread, but some of the photos used in the logo are a bit older, so keep that in mind.
Good luck!
