At last the second son gets his moment of glory! Wiebe Faulkner moved out at the end of last round from the original Faulkner family lot to start his own family; an interesting round as I discovered he's kind of an idiot when it comes to girls, kind of suffering from having been born in the Neanderthal Era (bit of a cave man type, I know, hard to believe with his pretty boy looks, just trust me! XD) and yet there's a romantic buried in their somewhere which we see (eventually) thanks to the determination of one special girl who knows what she wants and exactly how to get it!

Colosseum Death Match #3
As I quickly insert the missed/forgotten death match into the mix (I keep the pics separate for this >.<) Nickelback's "When We Stand Together" appropriately starts playing in the background... LOL XD This time the poor soul is fortunately (is that supposed to be UNfortunately? XD) related to Elias (yay! more Elias spam!) Ahem... let me just find my mourning face =_= ...right then, on this sorrowful occasion we say goodbye to the aging Jurgen Braun, father to 6 (3 dead), grandfather to 8, husband to Liesa nee Faulkner. Random information - Jurgen is father to Erhard who died last match, and Jurgen made it to 68 (he only had 2 days left anyway!).

Okay, funny thing, I've lost a sim O.O I was just looking at last round to prompt my memory of what happened, yeah, all good.... wait, where is Karsten? >_> He didn't die at the Colosseum but somehow he's missing, and I can't remember how! XD Generally I'm pretty good at remembering what happens, even if vaguely, considering the amount of sims I have to keep track of, but I can't find him anywhere! *lmao* ah well, I'm sure I'll come across it somewhere (he's not in my notes which I take lots of these days) and if anyone else spots him do let me know please! So amusing. Anyway, a very tiring round for this family that ended with the heir taking up the family reins a little earlier than intended as I take action to keep my population from exploding too ridiculously (is it too late for that already?) XD [Edit: Karsten was the first to die at the Colosseum, the unfortunate only sim on the block when the Emperor was there with Gisela making his decision to kill off all the slaves DX what bad luck, poor Karsten]

Thanks to a fantastic new job that unfortunately keeps me away from the sims more often than not, it has been over a month (since my last confession...) XD I've been reading The Thorn Birds, sorry, religious stuff stuck in my head, where was I...(digressing) I've been away from the sims kookiness for too long! DX Anyway~ It's been over a month since I played the sims and I have several families to catch up on so I shall do my best to remember what happened, with the help of some currently missing notes >_> useful... in between typing I shall try and find them with my amazing jedi mind powers...(way too long between simming time) Is anyone keeping up with this? If you are - welcome to the normal club the rest of you are just plain crazy =/ Somewhere here I shall mention how awesome Alois is! Yes, because this is the Alois and Rosella family, son and granddaughter of the awesome Detlef (I love you Detlef! XD - he can't hear you he's a sim in another world - oh....) So then... I got bored with playing slave after slave round so I created a new playground for my simmies to entertain me in, because frankly, it's the Roman Era, and those Ancient Romans LOVED to have fun, right?! As well they should because the Dark Ages are next and boy is THAT going to be a DOOZY! >_>... wait, shouldn't put anyone off getting there... Also reminding everyone that Alois is the new generation "baby maker" outdoing the previous one, Niklaus, who just happens to be the father of his daughter's baby... Keeping up? XD I know, I'm amazed I remember this stuff when my notes are still in limbo LoL Enjoy the "Playground"

A rather uneventful lot compared to the rest of the families this round; thankfully I might add as it's going to take me a year just to update at this rate @_@ I shall soldier on! Friederike here is the youngest of this family who I thought was the only boy with the darkest skin tone after Jeremias eloped, only to have Friederike grow up and OUT of his dark skin tone =_= seriously game, what's up with that?! It turns out Annaliese is the only super dark skin tone - guh! I'm surprised that the tone can be so easily bred out, to be honest, I haven't seen it since =/ I wonder if it's because I changed my default tones to CC ones? Oh well! This round I tore myself away from a very popular business to try and understand Friederike a little more, my youngest Gen3 heir from the original lines, and he was... err... well, you'll see!
