Bridgeport - a new town begins!
POSTED ON 29/08/12

Now I have Late Night. I wanted to experience the town it came with. Bridgeport has lauched! Yippee!!!

I started with Matthew Hemming. He was a Celebrity and in the new film career so I decided on him. Good choice! He's already made tons of pals and found romance wth Ned Parsons the repair guy who came to tweak his TV.

Matthew has been hard work. He was enemies with his boss, hated his co-workers and disliked his own brother. However I've resolved that and he throws big parties where he can boost his celebrity and have a lot of fun.

The paperazzi caught him skinny dipping in his hot tub! Oops! Also he gets falsey accused a lot but he has made it to 5 star celebrity so maybe that's why.

Then I made the Braxton boys from Home and Away, they've got a new lodger. Vampire girl Jessica Talon (who got caught in a glitch and disappeared!). Shehelped me move in a freak to get rid of him! I got her 20,000 points to change her traits. I don't like the fact ALL the vampires so far have the evil trait.

Next to play was Thornton Wheeler who befriended mixologist Bridget Steele and bouncer Kimmy Knott at a club, called them and got them to move in!

The apartments are really cool but some of the bigger ones I've had to remove as my computer struggled to load them. Culling the amount has improved gameplay a lot. I've made a few bars myself so I can play them.

I love a lot of the new interactions. Every lot has a dartboard and hot tub. It's getting more like the Sims 2 which is good!

Removals: Elvira Slayer a rude vampire girl who wouldn't speak to anyone and left within minutes if invited (even during the evening!), Wayne Bumble, The Atkins family and Eby Clavier.

Pablo adopts a child, who I call Hoochy! He was living with Pixie Lott, I thought she'd be the mum and as he was with Dorothy I would let their relationship slide so they could break up. However I didn't realise that being his girlfriend, Dorothy was named the mother. I didn't want Hoochy to fall out with Pablo by seeing him getting cosy with Pixie. So Pixie had to move out sharpish!

As she hasn't been doing much and I was going to break her and Pablo up anyway. Dorothy has been removed! I've had to drown her so Pixie can cozy up to Hoochy without problem.

Nancy and Geoffrey Landgraab get a new house. I realised most of my homes were bungalows so some two and three storey houses have been constructed. Christopher Steele and his girl Ann also get one of the new houses.

Steven Dallas moves in with Corey and Lawrence as Dorothy got removed.

Danny has wooed Angela Broke and they now live together. His roomie Thornton also moves in his lady, Sue Scotch. Who I have given a makeover with items from the stuff packs.

Ben finally got Ayesha by wandering around his house in his underpants! The date was the best they had and now they're boyfriend/girlfriend!

Over in the Browne's house, they got the first baby, who quickly became a toddler and now Tyler has grown up into a child. As a toddler he learnt to walk and talk before I aged him again via the cake. I assumed it would be enough to ensure I could pick the trait - but it wasn't! The trait selected was hydrophobic. I hope he can enjoy the hot tub!

Another new couple get a baby who quickly becomes a toddler. The Shah family has arrived. So this toddler will be potty trained too!

Other new Sims to arrive are; my own version of Connor and Jared Frio, who have returned after a stint in 'Simmywood'. I have given them a granny to look after them - Nanny Frio.

Also from 'Neighbours' soap opera, the Kennedy family move in. Karl and Susan are starting out as young adults with one child Malcolm. (They'll have Libby and Billy in due course.) My fave TV presenter also settles in; Jake Humphrey.

Pixie moves in with the Working Girls;  Madison, Tori and Ayesha.

Stiles McGraw got pally with postie Alma Tanti and moved her in. Although it didn't last long. I changed Stiles' traits to include neat and heavy sleeper. Alma was a slob and light sleeper! Oops! They didn't like living together so to preserve their friendship I found her new digs!

The Sims who have not cut the mustard and have been removed are; Dorothy DeMayo, Milton Tong and Dustin Broke. Graves to graveyard but Dustin will haunt the lot he drowned on (Pablo's house).
