The GO Treatment Centre - A Stranger from a Strange Land

[MissPlumbBob]

Introduction



Dear Mr. Payne,

I have read wonderful reviews of your "GO" Treatment Center, so I am writing to ask for your help.

I am the foster parent of Blythe Masterson, pictured above. This is not the best photo taken of her, but I believe it captures her personality. Some Sims may call her "insane"; I happen to think differently about the matter. She is the most gifted child I have ever had the privilege of welcoming into my home.

Blythe has a special talent with musical instruments. When she was placed with me as a toddler, she fell in love with the xylophone. I was hardly able to pry her away from it to feed her a bottle or take a nap. When she was in elementary school, she took a field trip to the theater and returned home, gushing to me about the band exhibition. Now a teenager, Blythe has taken to the guitar. She has an abundance of natural talent, but I am exhausted from the late night rock sessions that sound as if a cat is scraping its claws against a chalkboard. Please send her to a guitar class, if possible, and have her practice daily.

My foster child lives in a bubble. Because she spends time with her guitar every waking hour, she has few friends. She hardly talks to the rest of the children who stay with me, and she never brings home a friend from school. Please assist her in kindling new friendships. Blythe has few ambitions; she only dreams of playing guitar in the subway. I need you to help her see that there are aspirations for her professionally that incorporate her talents, like a Rock Star or Hit-Movie Composer.

Blythe meticulously cleans the home and seems to have fun doing it, so I want you to assign her to do the "dirty work" of the center. In addition, she is very clumsy, tripping over herself left and right. I want her to learn to be more graceful, if there is any way to teach it. She expresses herself through her wardrobe, as shown by her bright green leopard print. I hope you like bright green leopard print.

If she is accepted, I will be express-mailing Blythe's guitar to you because it is too big for customs. It is black and white. She will need it in order to complete the goals for her stay.

Sincerely,

Ms. Cora Newbew

Dear Ms. Newbew,

Thank you for referring your foster daughter to the Treatment Centre.  Blythe sounds like quite a delightful girl and we would be pleased to help her achieve her goals.  Regarding the goal of helping her grow gracefully into young adulthood, are you expecting her to have a birthday while she is in treatment?  If that is the case, please let us know so we can plan a special celebration for her.

We look forward to meeting Blythe.

sincerely,
The Management

To anyone wanting to refer a Sim to the Treatment Centre:  please don't include any Supernatural content.  I have been forced to uninstall Supernatural because since installing it my games are all becoming corrupted and can't be saved.  Also every time I inserted the disc, the game would try to uninstall itself (was it trying to tell me something?) so I think I must have a faulty disc.  Unless and until a solution is found, no Supernatural traits, or other items, I'm afraid.

Dear Mr. Payne,

My name is Karin Harrell. I’ve heard great things about your center. I would like to refer myself. I know I need help, and isn’t acceptance the first step to recovery? Or something like that.

Anyway, my problem is this: I love gardening, but it’s so dirty! I hate being dirty more than anything else! I always get teased by people about how much I like being clean. One of my classmates in high school even gave me the nickname “Neurotically Neat Crazy Karin.” Unfortunately it usually got shortened to Crazy Karin.

I used to have a job helping my nextdoor neighbor, Mr. Smith, with his garden. I got fired, though, because as soon as I would plant one seed, I’d have to run and wash my hands. I only worked there for two weeks, and I doubled Mr. Smith’s water bill for the month.

I’m hoping that your center can help me get over my fear of being dirty. I also want to be able to get good enough at gardening that I can start my own garden. I want to show Mr. Smith I’m not hopeless!

Thank you so much,

Karin Harrell

P.S. I heard one of your previous residents just used gloves when she fished and gardened. That would never work for me. If I was wearing gloves, how would I be able to feel what the plants need?

P.P.S. I understand I’ll have to work hard to reach my goals, but I’m really hoping to have time to write in my diary. Can I please keep my diary? Pretty, pretty please with a cherry on top?

Referral:
Name: Karin Harrell, Female YA
Traits: Neat, Neurotic, Insane, Loves the Outdoors, and Green Thumb
Goals: Earn enough Lifetime Happiness Points to get the “Dirt Defiant” reward, and also gain a few skill points in gardening. If by some miracle she manages to get enough LTHP to get Dirt Defiant and a SWAP, she’d like to swap out her Neurotic trait. If you can get Supernatural working by then, she’d like to switch it for Gatherer, which will help with getting better quality seeds.
I will be writing her diary entries after every update or two. Maybe a little less often if life in Dimension H gets too crazy. I know you can’t see it through her letter, but she was batting her eyelashes as she wrote that P.P.S.

Hi people,

I have a teen and I don't know how to upload her is there a way?

First, go into CAS and pull up your Sim, just like you were about to start playing her. Then, click the ... near her character portrait and click the option that says, "Upload Sim." Give your Sim an item name and description (doesn't need to be a long one) and click yes. After you do that, exit the Sims and open your launcher. In the "Uploads" section of your launcher you should be able to find your Sim. Check the box next to your Sim and click the upload box near the bottom of the launcher. From there, samoht's picture tutorial here is very useful. (I thought there was another tutorial, but I suppose there isn't) I hope this helps you. I can't wait to see your referral for Schip's centre! 

[Schipperke]

Dear Karin,

Thank you for your self-referral.  We would be pleased to have you join our next admission group.  Your help in the garden would be invaluable and we will make sure you won't have to get too dirty.  There is a shower near the garden and we hope to soon have it upgraded so it wil be unbreakable. 

We look forward to meeting you.  You may have been teased in the past for your love of cleanliness, but Sims who like to be neat and clean are always valued at the GO Treatment Centre!

sincerely,
The Management

Ok thxs and I have a ghost should I make it teen because its like supernatural and Im wondering do I have to make it human?

[Schipperke]

Jessie, I don't know if it's possible to upload a ghost.  I'm not saying it isn't, just that I don't know.  I'm certainly willing to have a ghost referral, and it would definitely add interest to things.  If you want to try to upload your ghost, go ahead and see if it will work.  If it doesn't work, your ghost may have to assume human form.  I don't know if you were planning to use SN content, but please remember that I don't have SN installed (or LN) so don't use any of that content.

[JessieJJJ]

Thanks Shipp, well I better go and remake Danielle as she has Supernatural and Late Night

I will have my sim ready earlier today for her referral

Thank you,

Jessie(the advisor)

[Schipperke]

Dear Jessie,

Thank you for referring Danielle Demont to the Treatment Centre.  She sounds like a very nice young lady and we will be pleased to have her. 

Regarding her treatment goals, when you say she would like to be sane, are you talking about her having a SWAP treatment?  In our last program, all the residents qualified for a SWAP treatment (although not all of them took one), but of course they were older and didn't have to attend school, which left more time for them to work on their treatment goals.  If you want Danielle to have a SWAP treatment, we'll do our best, but can't guarantee it.

We'll definitely see that she has a toy chest as we do want her to be happy in treatment.  Thanks again for the referral.

sincerely,
The Management

To anyone referring clients for treatment

I am experiencing more and more problems with my game, which I think boils down to this:  my computer just can't handle the demands of Sims any more.  So I just came back from ordering a new computer which I hope will be more than capable of handling anything Sims throws at it.  It will be ready in a week or so, and I don't want to start the next treatment program until I have the new computer.  I'm just tired of wasting time playing only to keep getting error 12's and all my work is gone.  So I appreciate your patience here. 

Meanwhile, we still have two more spaces for the next admission, so if you have a client to refer, please feel free to post the information.  I'll download the Sims when the new computer arrives.

[MissPlumbBob]

That is unfortunate, Schip. Glad you had funds for a new computer! We are more than willing to wait for the new referrals to be admitted.

[JessieJJJ]

I hope your new computer is capable of everything


Jessie

P.S. If you can you can do a SWAP because her mom would like a sane child XD
