Don't you love those nice, cooperative dates who will just give your Sim whatever he/she needs? Good for you, Greg, although you might want to try some hair dye. No sense in being white-haired just yet. XD

Holy cow, I think we have marmosets in our backyard! Seriously, it sounds a lot like some birds I've heard around here. I don't know if it's a cutie or a creeper, TBH.

I just played my gen 8 heir through college, and he was the first to get a love letter. But somebody else fetched it from the mailbox and then I couldn't find it anywhere. Can you solve this mystery for me? Where does it go after somebody gets it from the mailbox?

Aww, so long, Cesar, you cutie pie. Hopefully he won't find out about his wife's shenanigans while he's waiting for her in the Sim Afterlife. And thanks to him for answering my question about whether dead Sims still swoon over their spouses. I was just wondering about that the other day. I haven't seen it in my game because I confine my ghosts to the family mausoleum.

Well, I personally love to play college, but I wouldn't say I'm stronger than you. At least you're able to let your Sims die. I cling to my favorites because I'm a sissy and I don't care if it's cheating of any kind!

A-ha! I see you trying to sway my vote by mentioning eye colors! Just kidding. I was going to vote for Phoebe anyway.

Greg was a weirdo. He tried to sneak into the house when I wasn't looking.

I'm not too sure about the love letters. I recall being able to read them in the Sim's inventory, but that might only happen if it's retrieved by the right Sim and not someone else.

Cesar was the best and the most oblivious spouse. <3 It was nice that he could still admire Catalina even in death. What I'd really like to get is one of those neat ghosts that clean toilets. Useful ancestors FTW!

College playing depends on the generation, I'd say. Last generation, they were pretty tame, whereas gen. 5 was all fights and sexcapades. And pffft, if your favourites stay immortal then it's all good.

Even if Phoebe didn't have brown eyes, she'd still be my favourite this generation. My next goal is to get non-black hair, if I can manage it.

Wow, that's lame programming, EAxis! Unless you only play one Sim, what are the odds that a love letter is going to be retrieved by the Sim it was intended for? *sigh* Thanks for the reply!

I've only had one ghost who does useful things, and she made beds. (Then again, the Ducklings all have 9+ neat points, so there probably isn't much for ghosts to do anyway!) It seems like ghosts mostly just go around scaring people, no matter how nice they were when they were alive.

I like playing college because A- it's a change of scene, and B- I enjoy a good spouse hunt.

You've definitely had a hard time getting hair/eye color diversity! Do you use the mods that give equal chance of offspring having either parents' hair/eye color, or do you like trying to do it the way the game intended?

I don't have any mod for it; I just roll the pacifier and hope for the best. Seeing how fragile my game is anyway, I'm hesitant to add any new stuff (at least until my legacy is finished).
