Since a lot of people (myself included) just say dynasty or legacy, why don't you have a link to the rule set for the deca and immortal dynasties and a link to the rule set for Pinstair's legacy challenge.

Anyway, I've made changes to the definitions for both CC and mods.  Do you think they're ok or do they need more tweaking?

I think the new version is good. People can follow the links to learn more.
And I agree with this:
... I tried to steer clear of opinions, good, bad or otherwise.  My thought was that people accessing this guide would be looking mainly for definitions.

Plenty of opinions elsewhere, lol.


I'm going to have to come up with a way to incorporate it into a signature now :).

I recommend Spy vs Spy. ;D

I like SPY better than symposium, which is how I've been thinking of you. Back to topic -- "cake up" to make a Sim grow up before a birthday by using birthday cake. Until I started reading on the forum, I didn't realize you could force an age change earlier than the notification.

I had a Simlish Dictionary when I first joined. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to update or check it.

Thank you, Marian and Seabody!  Fantastic additions!.  I hope you don't mind that I included the link to your Dictionary.  It's really nifty and I'm sure many folks would be interested in a little foreign language study :D.  Even if you don't actively update it, just having it as a reference that other people can add to is very helpful.

Thanks for the suggestion, samoth.  Added!

Thanks, Pam.  Did you notice that I included the distinction between "NPC" and "townie" that you explained to me over on the LN pages?  Thanks!

It is awesome. I'm adding it as a guide page now under the general articles section so that it'll be more visible to people stopping by the site. Thanks a lot to everyone who participated.

Thanks so much, Carl!  And thank you, again, to everyone who provided comments, recommendations, support, suggestions and ideas!  I learned a lot just from compiling it all.

This is so exciting!  I can't wait to see it on the main body of the site!  *happydance*

Cheers! I put up an announcement a little earlier. The page itself on the guide is here. I use some of those on the guide so I was really happy to make it a part of it. Thanks for your efforts in compiling the info, and the good idea.
