Hello fellow simmers. My name is Malissa and I have been a Simaddict since the very beginning. House Party and Hot Date just sucked me right in and I have been gone ever since.  ;D

I was intrigued by Carls guide - it is absolutely amazing! So many questions answered. Carl, I'm not worthy. Thanks for taking the time and making it available.

I was working the Sims 2 challenges on another site but then Sims 3 arrived and I could not wait to see the Sims 3 challenges. However the site had yet to make any. Then when I while scanning the site, I saw that there were some here and thought I'd take a peek. I admit these aren't set up the way I am used to so I will probably suck completely, but I would love to give it a try. Or at least be able to talk to other simmers like myself. My friends think I'm a little nutty with this whole Sim thing. They just don't understand, right?

Well that's enough jabbering... Nice to meet cha!

Hi Malissa and welcome to the forum!  The challenges that Metro comes up with keeps us all on our toes when we are competing.  Just jump right in and ask questions if you need some clarification and you can always go through and play a few of the expired challenges just to practice and you can play the current challenge for practice as well, before having your official go at it.

Welcome Malissa. I like this forum/guide but I don't play the challenges - they're too stressful for me. And I know what you mean about others thinking you're nutty about sims - I chat to my parents about it and they look at me wierd.

Would it be much of a bother to reduce the size of your signature picture? It just takes up so much of the page...

Ok first please allow me to apologize for the humongous Sim pic in my introduction. I thought I was putting a pic in for my avatar. If some1 can help me with that I would be so grateful.

As for the challenges I think I will be asking questions. Will I be the only newbie asking crazy questions? If so I beg forgiveness now. I admit I wasn't expecting a response so quickly. Does that mean that people are on-line all day and night? I think I will definitely feel at home here. Thank so much for the warm welcomes. I'm sure I'll be popping up in other forums real soon. I'm already thinking of doing the Immortal Dynasty family. Does each challenge have its own forum? Does Dynasty have its own?

No worries about the siggy - I see you've got in on your avatar now.

Of course you won't be the only one asking crazy questions. The challenge threads are full of just that. And yes there's usually someone online at any time here. Because we have active members from all over the world, I'm used to getting quick replies.

You can find all the challenge threads here in the challenges section:

http://www.carls-sims-3-forum.com/index.php/board,6.0.html

that includes the thread for the immortal dynasty challenge. If you want to start your own dynasty you might like to record your progress in the share your stories section:

http://www.carls-sims-3-forum.com/index.php/board,8.0.html

there are also a few contests (like the caption contest and the building contest) in this section:

http://www.carls-sims-3-forum.com/index.php/board,14.0.html

I hope that helps. Don't be afraid to ask more questions!

Hey Pally!

I didn't see your post till after I posted mine. Yea that pic was way over the top. When I refreshed the page (slow internet connection) I was like 'Whoa what they must think of me.' Ha ha ha. Yes I did find a way to do the avatar. And I was able to remove the old one. Good deal.

Thanks for the links. I was searching but I keep getting sidetracked by other forums! I think I'm enjoying myself way too much with this thing. Where have you guys been all my life.  :D

Ok... I have to ask. How do I get those sig banners from MissingStudios? I went to the site and didn't see anything.

Welcome FluentnSimish.

For the sig, you'll need to register at missing studios. Then update your profile. When you've finished there, go into the signature generator and copy the link into your sig here.
 
If you need help feel free to PM me.

Hi my name is Barbie and I am 28. I say my age because I have been playing the sims since I was in high school. I have every sims game every made of each. I still to this day own all of the sims 1,2, and I am building my collection with the sims 3. When a new version comes out I usually just take the old one off my laptop and install the new. So I have been around the sim world to see how much it has grown and improved over time. I am a master cheater but I am trying to change my cheating ways for a challenge. I am getting bored with cheating..very bored. I will be forever a sims fan till the day I die with all the games and my computer in the coffin with me.

Hi, my name is Helen and I am 30 and Live in New Zealand. I have three kids aged between 4 years and 5 months. I am a die hard sims addict and have been since the original came out. I have periods of time where I don't play much. This is usually when my kids are super grumpy and need lots of my time, before I had them I played daily.
The rest of my family don't understand my addiction (including my husband) but I am okay with that.

Welcome Barbie and Helen. :)
There's nothing wrong about a little healthy Sims addiction.

Welcome to the forum, Barbie and Helen!  I hope you enjoy your time here.  And I agree with Swede - Sims addiction is really very healthy.  At least, that's what I keep telling myself.  ;D
