So, hello people.

Sorry for the radio silence (again). I had a breakdown at work and had to take some time away from everything to recover.

Hopefully I'll be back with some more Nicholson content soon!

Thank you. I've taken some time to re-energise myself, and I am back with the final chapter of Generation One!

It's a biggie, so come prepared.

@slashbanghorror I hope today is a better day!!

I've been back-commenting on a few of your stories people, but I have no idea which ones I've missed honestly and some I've read from my phone where comments are different, I'm not sure what I've left out. But I'll try!

Hello!

So, due to unforseen circumstances that I am not complaining about, I've had my hours cut back at work to my regular contracted hours.

Which means that I will have more time for the Nicholson family! :D

Guess who's back with a brand new chapter after a bit of mental health flip flopping and exams?
Heeeeeeeyyyyyyy

Also hi to all new people and hi to returning people, I'm your local trash who updates about 5 chapters in five days and then vanishes for like two months *peace emoji*

In the usual me tradition, I've got a chapter out!
Update! Chapter 4.10 Proposals not that kind of proposals lmao

I'll try and catch up but most likely I'll just join in on the latest chapter and pretend like I know what's going on (a few I really wanted to proper catch up on last time bc I was really involved in the story but I was procrastinating bc my attention span is that of a goldfish lmao)

Thank you for the kitty encouragements, to my great relief I did find him 5 days (and 5 hours) later! And made him promise not to scare me like that ever again, I was so worried he could be locked in some neighbor's garage, cellar, or whatever...

1.7 - An unstable personality

Here's a new Nothing Is Free update. It's actually the last one for this generation. Pretty fast, huh? I guess I could have made two chapters out of this + some extra screenshots I have lying around here but I wanted to catch up to where I am in-game, which is at the start of generation 2. I will *try* to make generation 2 not so super short but I wanted a RLC that is faster than my Harris legacy so it probably won't be much more than ten-ish chapters per generation.
Also sorry for the wonky layout in this chapter, I have no idea what's going on with blogger, it looked just fine before I posted it.

So, I am faced with a problem.

I'm playing through Gen Two of the Nicholson's, and things have broken. Not game breakingly broken, but still broken. Connor is in the firefighter career, and he spends his whole time there fixing the fire engine and alarm. Because of this, there is so few screenshots of anything actually happening. I would try and start again, but the only save I have of the game is when Connor has a wife (who is pregnant) and Kathleen has a baby from some French dude.

So, with there being no way to undo what's been done, and with me having to change Connor's career to being a magician (Yay for Showtime) due to the firefighter career being broken, is it okay if I do a "Here's a summary of what happened, now to cut to the action" style thing?

I'd say whatever you find easiest is fine. I mean, I know there's a general rule of story>rules, but if you're playing more like, strict, then I'm pretty sure there was a rule that was something like "if the game makes a career unplayable, it's all game". If it's just story, then you just do you, whatever will cause you the least amount of hassle or whatever you want to do most (which trust me, if you're anything like me, those two things are completely separate lmao)

If you sim's career is glitched, you may roll another one for them (general rule #15).

How you blog about the challenge is not covered under any rules and is entirely up to you.

*pokes head in*

Hi! Despite the many years since I've updated (including moving computers and apparently only having my Avendale stuff on my external HDD which is currently borked), I've been fiddling with my Avendales recently! Not sure when I might have another update; depends on if I want to wait to see if said external is recoverable and what (if anything) I had on there for 7.6 or if I just want to forge ahead.

Unfortunately, since I only was posting rolls on my blog/tumblr as they were revealed, I absolutely cannot remember what my misc fun goal was for gen 7. I've also gotta refresh myself on the rules a bit because I tend to follow my own little rule of story > rules so I usually use the rolls as a guideline/structure rather than an end-all, be-all.

Welcome back, Heaven! It's been a while! We recently re-did the rules a tiny bit, but the old ones are still kept on the rules blog too.

I saw that! It's been so long that I'm not sure I could pick out the differences unless I looked over both extensively. The one thing I did notice was the expansion gift is gone (as makes sense) because I used it for gen 6 and then was like "wait, did I cheat and just pretend I didn't" and then saw those were new rules, lol

Heh... yeah... there hasn't been an expansion in many years now. *single tear* If you STILL have no experience with a career because all you do is legacy play with long periods of inactivity... grats, you're like me! xD I figured the rule would just confuse newer RLCers, and older ones could have it as a house rule if they adopt the new rules.

There were a few new rolls added for several categories, and careers were re-weighted, with some restrictions lifted as to which sim gets the career. Example: you roll couple, military, firefighter. Your heir could be military and the spouse firefighter, or the heir could be firefighter and the spouse military. Under the old rolls, you didn't get to pick which was which, and the heirs had an overwhelming chance to get rabbithole careers. I got so tired of that.

I was going to ask what the expansion gift was but I think I remember it? Wasn't it a rule that was like "if you get a new shiny you can mess around with it"?

Anyway, it's good to see you around again, Heaven ^-^

And I have an update! Chapter 4.11 So Emotional

Expansion Gift was... if you got a new expansion in the middle of your legacy and wanted to play one of the careers, you could swap your sim to that career. It was probably worded better.
