Faketriplepost: Day 2 has been run. I'll be compiling the turn tomorrow. I took 155 pictures, introduced a new character, and things of all kinds happened, good, bad, and ugly.

If anyone has turn orders for day 3, get them in asap!

[Vector]

> Grind gardening
> Paint paint paint

[Sappho]

I've never actually played Sims 3 so I don't really know the details about what I can do. So I guess, just whatever I need to do to work towards my life goal?

[Heron TSG]

I haven't done much simming either. How about uh...

>Learn a skill
>Climb a hill

[RedKing]

>Practice cooking
>Look for a job

I figure I better skill up cooking, or it's going to be Waffle Haus of Madness, like last time.

[MaximumZero]

Japa: Tinker
Sappho: ERROR: NO DEFAULT ACTION
Vector: Paint
Barbar: Learn something new
RedKing: Video Games
BurntPies: Write

Spoiler: Day 2 of the Haus is live! (click to show/hide)

Japa is the first to awaken, still somewhat singed and smouldering.


I know it's a little difficult to see here, but I've tweaked Sappho a little bit to better fit my mental picture of her (because she said her sim looked nothing like her.)


Barbarossa has also now tamed the wild (and now dark brown,) beast with a beanie that he wears at all times.


Today, Barbarossa will learn to do chin-ups like a boss. That face means he's all business.


Redking decides to make something of Vector's salad art. I'm willing to bet that being left out overnight wasn't good for it.


Burnt Pies has finished Time Spy! It nets her §600, and she'll be receiving a very small weekly royalty check.


RedKing talks to Vector about the possibilities of salad. I think.


Now that she's done writing a book, Burnt Pies sets out to read one. Such books. Many purple covers. Wow.


Japa, you have to turn the computer on before you use it.


A wild Wolfeyez appears to help me with you lunatics! Huzzah!


Japa has finally had enough of his own smell. That's good, because we all passed that threshhold hours ago.


Sappho sets out to create some modern art of her own. Possibly not all her own, but hey, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right?


Meanwhile, RedKing and Vector get uncomfortably close.


Barbarossa is really getting into...


A blank screen. Dude, what the hell? Turn the computer on. You know this.


Burnt Pies dreams of being a pro skateboarder.


Sappho's pedestal. Maybe someone will make something to put on it.


I do not let you guys' madness interrupt my training.


Vector, please do not slap me upside the head. I'm trying to train, here.


Vector complains that I am in her way. For what, I have no idea. There's nothing past me but fence, going either direction.


Wolfeyez and I decide to play catch. Wolfeyez, that is not proper throwing form.


The salad-raw-form sculpture has become an actualized salad. I still don't think it's safe to eat.


That doesn't stop Japa and Vector from immediately diving into it. That is not safe food handling procedure, guys. Guys?


RedKing, after making the world's least safe and/or delicious salad, turns on a game of Gorillaball.


Barbarossa does not look happy about the gorilla.


So, he takes up Vector's usual seat outside by himself. No candles needed at noon!


Vector is displeased about being displaced. She refuses to sit at the picnic table with Barbarossa.


Wolfeyez has bad intent, I'm guessing. Maybe she's jealous of me and my fancy "proper" throwing form? I can teach her. I have the technology.


Overhand is best hand, although that's not exactly throwing like a man.


Japa helps with the dishes! I approve.


Burnt Pies also grabs a plate of salad based foodborne illness.


Vector says that if she can't sit alone, she'll invade someone else's personal space. That'll show 'em.


Japa goes back to the workbench, which I forgot to put outside.


He promptly sets about strewing garbage everywhere. What the hell are you making, man?


I love the expression Japa makes when using the torch, but shouldn't he be more careful with that? Answer: probably. Also, he does not have safety goggles on.


Sappho is still hard at work on her pale imitation. Literally pale, given that it's not a black smear.


Barbarossa is impressed with something in the kitchen/dining area. He's headed to take a shower.


Angry catch is best catch, I guess. I swear to you, I will teach this woman to throw a ball.


Welp, Japa has set himself on fire. This will probably not end well.


Japa is uncomfortably hot. I mean, it's not as hot as New Delhi in June, but still pretty hot.


That shirt will never be the same. Patting does nothing to help.


Flee the fire! Run awaaaaay!


RedKing is not impressed. He could totally do that, too.


Vector and Burnt Pies are also not impressed. They think about joining RedKing on the couch for some tv.


Finally, Japa makes it to a water source, to douse both the flames and his shame.


Not often that something literally ends in tears, but there you have it. Japa, do not set yourself on fire in the future, please.


Burnt Pies makes faces at RedKing, while Vector just wants some video game time.


Handegg for everyone! Japa struts around like nothing happened, and Burnt Pies talks to him about the Human Torch.


While RedKing and Burnt Pies forget how fields of vision work, there is a strange woman in a cat eared hat outside our door, thinking about Sappho. None of us have ever met her, so we just let her about her business. Turns out, she's paparazzi, and Sappho has somehow gained a fame star. No one knows how.


Another argument is a-boiling.


BurntPies shows off her expressive eyebrows.


Wolfeyez sneaks up on RedKing with some sort of bad intent, I'm sure.


She looks to me for approval. I don't approve of anything that goes on in this Haus. It just happens.


SEAHAWKS 13 - PANTHERS 9, SON!


RedKing is struck with visions of Carolina's offense doing nothing but sputtering. Poor RedKing, but at least he's not a Buccaneers fan like me.


Meanwhile, Sappho has completed her Vector-like modern art piece.


She hangs hers right next to Vector's. Contrast is key, I guess. Also, she deserves a break.


Japa and Barbarossa have figured out the computers! Huzzah!


Because of my super-duper financial planning skills, I reward us with a pool that I'll likely never use.


Also, a grill and a wood-fire oven. There's no way anything can go wrong here.


Sappho is surprised and disturbed by the amount of dishes you guys leave laying around. Also, how much salad did you make, RedKing? The dish is only half-empty!


Japa has had a long day. If you didn't yawn after looking at this picture, you're not human.


Burnt Pies goes back to hanging out with Vector. They spend a lot of time not talking.


Wolfeyez and Barbarossa have a discussion in the bathroom. Odd place for that, but okay.


Wolfeyez praises Barbarossa's ability to actually turn the computer on. I...don't even.


RedKing wants to read Burnt Pies' latest classic.


Barbarossa gets cheered on.


I head outside and make lasagna in the wood oven. It is lemon and eggplant lasagna, much to the delight of Japa. Not so much to my delight.


Well, what the hell. I'll try it anyway. Can't be worse than day old salad.


Japa has started reading a new book. "Courses for Co-eds." What the hell kind of book is that, and why do we keep this nonsense in the Haus?


Burnt Pies and RedKing spend time being mature at one another.


Real mature, guys. Real mature.


Suddenly, a dragon attacks! RedKing demands to know how BP would defeat one with silly faces.


Burnt Pies wants nothing to do with RedKing's provoking.


Barbarossa is the first one in the pool.


Away from RedKing's nonsense, Burnt Pies enjoys some more computer time.


Japa and Vector hang out on the couch. Vector isn't half bad at virtual driving.


That waterfall is cool as hell, isn't it?


RedKing steps up to BP again, this time busting out his best pickup line. Seriously, that is what he's doing. I can't believe it, either, and I don't think I've ever heard one involving a camera.


Burnt Pies beats a hasty exit, giving RedKing all of her nope.


Defeated, RedKing finds someone else to antagonize. This time, it's Vector.


Sappho attempts to conquer the rock wall. Nothing could possibly go wrong here.


Hey, she's not doing too bad up there.


Vector and RedKing argue about music. Vector does not back down from an argument.


A fatal flaw in your argument, RedKing! Music is subjective!


This...does not look like it's going to good places.


Japa researches "How to not set yourself on fire" on the internet. Good choice.


The argument gets more heated.


Burnt Pies has been watching me break boards with my bare hands, and compares me to some kind of obscure superhero.


Wolfeyez decides to mark her territory, I believe.


Yelling intensifies. It is terrifying.


Barbarossa may not be Jopax the Mighty, but damn if he isn't suddenly ripped.


Well, shit. Vector actually jumped on RedKing, and all hell broke loose.


I applaud you for defending yourself, RedKing, but there's no way to feel good about what just happened. I tell them both to hit the showers and go to bed for the night.


Yes. Showers. Bed. Go. Now.


BurntPies finally gets some peace and quiet to watch the cooking channel.


Barbarossa is still unsure about the computer. I know he knows how to use one of them.


Sappho is tuckered out after attacking the rock climbing wall. She actually gained a skill point in athletic!


I run in from the rain and dark. Outside is not a nice place to be right now.


Wolfeyez cannot breathe lasagna. She finds this out the hard way.


Japa sits down with Burnt Pies on the couch. He drops a smooth compliment on her.


Burnt Pies is pleased with this new peace and quiet. Also, the chef on tv set himself on fire, much to Japa's amusement.


Intense cooking tv is intense. The new duo intently watch for a short period of time, but soon have to head to bed.


Lights out, all! It's been quite a day.

[RedKing]

Nice to see my virtual avatar is just as smoooove with the ladies as I am in real life.

Also, Wolfeyez sneaking up on me to terrify me with how bad the Panthers are is priceless. XD

[Sappho]

Me being athletic is the most hilariously unlikely thing I've ever heard of. But of COURSE I'm famous. Did you not SEE that amazing pedestal?

[Burnt Pies]

I do love a man who's not afraid to set himself on fire.

What I don't love, however, is salad that's been left out overnight. Or, indeed, salad at all.

Action: Cook dinner tomorrow. Make it more interesting than Salad. Secondary Action: Secretly remove all salad ingredients from the fridge.

[MaximumZero]

I've never actually played Sims 3 so I don't really know the details about what I can do. So I guess, just whatever I need to do to work towards my life goal?

So, there's lots of stuff you can do. In the OP, I linked a list of skills. You may pursue any of them, unless they are for children or are hidden. Our Haus has lots of amenities. You can lounge by or in the pool, read a book (skill or otherwise), watch tv, play video games, sculpt, paint, play an instrument, climb the rock wall, train martial arts with MZ, request that I buy or upgrade something, work out in the gym area, jump on the trampoline, play soccer or catch, or interact with your hausmates. For example, if you explicitly want to tell off RedKing for fighting with Vector (or vice versa,) you can choose that. Or, if you decide making a friend or flirting with someone is more appropriate, there's that option, too. (Note: I already set it so that you won't flirt with the men of the haus. I listen every once in a while.)

You can set up two actions per day, or a default action in case you don't get back to the thread before I update.

[MonkeyHead]

Aww, damn, I am so fucking sorry I missed the start of this based on how legendary I was in the last one. Ah well, allow me to PTF so I can witness the madness.

[RedKing]

Aww, damn, I am so fucking sorry I missed the start of this based on how legendary I was in the last one. Ah well, allow me to PTF so I can witness the madness.

Weren't you the one who died, but in such a way that even Death facepalmed and brought you back to life?

No, that was Max White. I somehow tunneled into the underworld whilst mining in the garden, emerged with much phat loot, joined the army, and decided that grubby overalls were the right attire for all night drinking and table dancing. Amongst other shenanigans.

[WillowLuman]

Just one question: are there passable longcoats in this game?

[Sappho]

Hm... Well then, for sure I'll take all the logics as a default. With a side of tai chi if that's possible. My real life self may not have time for it anymore, but at least my digital self can!

So I guess for the next game day I'd like:
-something to work on logic
-tai chi if available, or if not, then video games, just like in real life!
