I never see gnomes in my game! I had no idea you could get them from doing laundry and my sims do laundry at least once and sometimes twice a day...

i present to you.. a full hamper.

Maybe a stupid question, but my sim has no washer and dryer on the lot, she goes the the laundromat and does laundry. But my hamper is full and I go to the laundromat and do laundry, dry it, pick up clean clothes, but the hamper is still full! Does that make sense? lol

First; NECRO!

Second; is there an option to Do Laundry when you click on the hamper? If there is, then try that and see if she'll pick it up and go to the laundromat. Can't say myself, as I usually have my own machines, so I hardly ever go the laundromat.

I'll try it myself, as I just started a new family, see if I have the same problem.

My Inventor Sim made a gnome once. I remember putting him on the floor in the same room, but the next day I found him standing on the table. I didn't even know gnomes would move, so I was freaked out. I have put him back on the floor, but then the next day he had stood on the table again. I decided to leave him alone by then. I guess he really loved that table D: And I named that little guy Jack.

And now I try to get the friggin' Laundrygnome. I want them to be like... family :I I think I'll start my own collection of gnomes or something.

Random thought: I wonder if they attack Sims. e_e Like... seriously... It could be a nice horror movie. Or comedy.

I find the gnomes kind of annoying. They randomly watch tv or turn the radios on, occasionally get in front of the refrigerator and I have to move them so my sims can eat. I think I'm going to request a mod that makes them stay outside. They're gnomes, they shouldn't be inside, it's like,,,,, mean to keep such a free spirit locked inside the house.

At least they generally sell for a lot.

My gnomes always end up standing right in the way while trying to garden. I like to keep my plants in lines.

How have you all not heard of gnomes? My current legacy has exactly 33 gnomes. Most of them I got from the P.I. career and collecting. The thing is, the house is not complete and only two stories high. I don't want to know how many gnomes I'll have by the time I finish.

I remember back when they were still making the sims 2 the developers had 'open chats' where people could attend and ask a ton of questions. "will my sims have to do laundry?" kept coming up and they eventually made that question an FAQ. lol! Maybe they had laundry on the back burner ever since.
