Looking forward to see the entries!

@Kukamuukaanmuka I love the bar! It looks just how I envisaged it. Ripp seems grown-up enough to me- he has Heineken and Fanta, the essentials of life!

@Kukamuukaanmuka - Wow! I am so impressed that I actually don't know what to say - and it is not often that I am speechless

I LOVE IT.

Rip looks very good at the bar, so does Captain Perhaps the two of them will improve - Captain seems to do the cleaning.

Ooh a free round! I think I know what family and house to pick. Just to clarify the rules @joandsarah77, it's just the foundation and first floor exterior walls that can't be changed? So for a two-storey house like the Grunt's and Smith's, the second floor exterior walls can be modified?

Ellu I love the bar! I love the kind of tropical feel your neighbourhood has too

I thought someone posted a WCIF comment in the thread but I can't see it now? I haven't opened up my game since I finished the last round so I was waiting to answer it until I could. If you're still looking for something let me know and I'll try to find it!

Oh, that was me. I found the red bar stools but I also liked that leafy green wallpaper you used in a bedroom in round 3 I think it was.

@randomlyyellstuff no it is all outside walls. Just like we did for the Beaker's.

You may not add or remove full walls from the outside shell of the house.


None of the rules have changed.

I think this is where some of us, including myself, are confused. This was asked for the very first round. But the upper floor on the first two rounds were roofs, not actual floors. Is that the difference Jo?

I think that question was for the Curious brother's house which had no upper level.

If a house has an upper story, then no you can't demolish those walls or build onto them because than you are back to rule one -do not demolish or build walls onto external walls. You can extend the area by adding a veranda though or any form of half wall.

If you look at round 3 you will see I outlined the second and third story full walls all in red.

I hope that clears that up. I can see how it was confusing now you pointed it out.

Yeah, that's where I got confused, and had to put the upper floor back in. Well, it's all right, honestly, I'm doing Olive and Ophelia's place so it's cool.

Can we still add extra storeys, like 3rd and 4th floors?

(Goes back to drawing board).

Yes, you can add as many stories as you want.

That makes sense to me now too! I had a feeling we couldn't change upstairs but I wanted to be sure. Hopefully I can make the existing walls work

That would be the wallpaper in PT and Jenny's room if I'm thinking of the right one? It's from this set by Honeywell. I also used a leafy wallpaper in the hall which is from this set by Poppet just in case that's what you were thinking of!

Default Grunt Family 88 Road To Nowhere




The Grunt family were offered several lots by the Strangetown Crisis Council, but General Buzz flatly refused all (he wanted a more 'strategic' location but they were all taken!). This one was given as a compromise and to avoid a threatened coup d'état.

General Buzz:
"No, definitely not. I will not allow aerial photography of my lot, nor will I give you any details about the interior. Now go away, you know I have friends right up at the very TOP of the government, and I will see to it that you are [redacted]..."

Images taken by Stealth drone spy camera:










Spy note: At this point a military helicopter arrived and General Buzz Grunt left the lot.




Thanks for reading!

I hadn't planned on anybody converting a comm lot over to residential, but since it isn't covered in the rules, and you have done it, I will accept it. Also lol!
