Thankyou so much guys for all this great info and updating so quick too! I'm keeping this tab up permanently and refreshing every so often.
Something's that just occured to me to ask - are the townies at the secret lots just the old townies but with randomly allocated hobbies or are they brand new shiny townies? (Mostly interested for the sake of my 'have 20 loves at once' romance sim)

Can't wait till I get it on friday

Not completely sure about this as I don't take much notice of the townies, but I think they're the same old ones.

Couple of pics of secret club lots. Sorry they're not great but it's after midnight and I just wanted to put a few up before I go to bed.

The only llama thing I've seen so far is the cut out on the side of the new computer. At least I think it's the llama, not a rabbit. Oh, and there was a llama in a canoe sculpture I think.

The koi pond is pretty much just decorative I think, haven't actually been able to get one yet as it's the reward for the oceanographer careeer. It would be pretty funny if you were able to fish from it though :D

I really gotta get to bed if I want to get up early to play

#88 Old 25th Feb 2008 at 1:19 PM
i think the pond is to do with the nature hobby. I sent the sim to the Peerless park and it was there. All she could do was feed the fish. Will post pics of it soon.
(and you could prb get it by cheating. UnlockCareerRewards)

Ok...more pics...
Peerless park (its for the nature hobby)

Feeding the fish in the koi pond (sp?)

My muse-Dance studio for the music and dance hobby

and i found this cool. Depending on their hobby they will do something while waiting..

There's a llama clock, and a llama light, from memory. I'm just uploading those videos in the zips now. Give it an hour or so, and should be right. :D

Agreed. I never play the popularity aspiration because the phone is ALWAYS ringing with those guys LOL I'd like my family sims to be able to call and talk to two children attending two different colleges... or something like that.

I'm still shocked theres a freakin rubix cube

Awesome! I want this pak so bad now. One thing though, could someone please give me more info on the new families?
Lab Assistant
#98 Old 25th Feb 2008 at 4:28 PM
The videos are done. There's heaps of new families - a whole new neighbourhood. I played the Una family for a second, but there's at least 10 new households. There's also a couple of families in the family bin.

Wo so many members reading this thread!

I wants it now!
But I made a promise to myself I'm not allowed it for another 3 weeks now anyways... I've got a school placement to finish and then a uni assignment to hand in. It will just distract me wayyy too much!
I really should stop reading this thread actually.. it's tormenting! Must.. not.. go.. order.. it.. now! Argh!

I can't wait for the secondary aspirations and rewards!
