"i'm A Sim, Get Me Out Of Here!"
<div class="IPBDescription">Starts...... now.</div> For starters let me link to the original topic:
<a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=90191' target='_blank'>Linkeh</a>
Yes, I finally got around to doing this! Huzzah!
A few changes have been made to the original lineup, as it came to my attention that my characters sucked. The following changes have been made:
-Garry has been replaced with Grim (see below)
-Gertrude has been replaced with Bunny (see below)
-Ninja now sports a more authentically Ninja-y outfit
-Mimi now sports a more authentically mime-y outfit
-Ayumi is now less disturbing to look at
-Everyone now has 1 cooking skill point to cut down on fires (fires are fun when they're occasional, not when they're a matter of course)
And so I present to you, the revised list of contestants!

(from left to right)
Ninja: because ninjas are awesome
Likes: Flipping out and killing people
Dislike: Pirates
Buzz Nukem: Duke's younger brother, still a little bitter that he didn't get the part of the hero in Duke Nukem Forever. Resents Gordon for much the same reason.
Likes: Guns, beer, you know, the usual
Dislikes: Pretty much everything else
Gordon Freeman: Ever wonder where Gordon went between HL1 and HL2? Well now you know.
Likes: Crowbars
Dislikes: Headcrabs
(back) Grim: It was nice of the Grim Reaper himself to take time out of his busy schedule to take part in my little experiment.
Likes: Sharp things, Reaping mortal souls, Kittens
Dislikes: Things that arn't sharp
(front) Bunny: Well.... its a great big bunny. I don't know what to say really.

(back) Ayumi: Some kind of super crime-fighting commando from the future... I think. It's hard to tell through her broken engrish.
Likes: Hard to tell
Dislikes: Tentacles
Mimi: The mime hath returneth for a second series, maybe i'll actually finish this one.
Likes: Wandering around in her underwear (if the last series is any indication)
Dislikes: Being trapped in an invisible box, strong winds
BeardBeard: Arr mateys! The cap'n is back!
Likes: Plundering, Grog, Wenches
Dislikes: Ninjas
So with the introductions out of the way, i'm going to let them do their thing for a bit, and i'll post the first update in an hour or two.
From now on, all updates will be made in this thread. I'll bump the thread every time I update, so stay tuned folks!
I'm also now taking suggestions for random events for the contestants. I've got several in mind, but a few extras couldn't hurt. I'm also taking votes for who dies first, and the method of their death.

And
GREAT you got this in action!
Go go video game show! Even though my 56k will hate the pictures and stuff. Any chance you could post thumbnails in the thread instead of the full size goodness? You could always link to the actual picture and my 56k will love you.
I've got a lot of good pictures here, but there's no way I can post em all. I guess i'm just going to have to choose the best ones for now. These pictures represent about 6 sim-days worth of game time.
(yay for thumbnails! Click for full-sized versions)

The contestants enter the house, and mimi immediately sets about doing what she does best; annoying everyone else.

Meanwhile, BeardBeard tackles a mighty sea beast.

Ninja and Beardbeard immediately hit it off (yes, I made them enemies right from the start, the facial expressions in this picture are gold).
<a href='http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62ℑ=grr29sy.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img62.exs.cx/img62/3618/grr29sy.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
As do Gordon and Buzz.

Although they soon settle their differences over a game of chess.

Well done Beardbeard, i'm sure mummy would be proud.
<a href='http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62ℑ=slap3su.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img62.exs.cx/img62/4087/slap3su.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Ninja is trained in the deadly art of Slappuku.

Day 4, we knew it had to happen sooner or later.
<a href='http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62ℑ=fight22ke.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img62.exs.cx/img62/7440/fight22ke.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Come on Beardbeard! Do it for pirates everywhere!
<a href='http://img62.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img62ℑ=noes1vz.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img62.exs.cx/img62/1097/noes1vz.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Noes! I guess that's settled the Ninja versus Pirate debate.
<a href='http://img57.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img57ℑ=gross5qw.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img57.exs.cx/img57/8959/gross5qw.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
*URP* Ninja is ever so graceful in victory. Again, check out BeardBeard's expression.
<a href='http://img57.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img57ℑ=quickfire5fj.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img57.exs.cx/img57/1231/quickfire5fj.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
On to this week's event: the quickfire round! Fireplaces will be placed in strategic points in the house and left alight 24/7. The game is simple; don't get burned to death when the inevitable happens.
<a href='http://img57.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img57ℑ=nosepick7xc.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img57.exs.cx/img57/2373/nosepick7xc.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Thanks for that Gordon...

Yes, that's it mortals, you just go about your business, soon I shall come for you....
<a href='http://img57.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img57ℑ=overkill0xl.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img57.exs.cx/img57/1923/overkill0xl.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
After several days of no fires I decided that the best approach, as with most things in life, was overkill.
<a href='http://img57.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img57ℑ=fire16rf.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img57.exs.cx/img57/9099/fire16rf.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Well, that worked suprisingly quickly. Oh not Beardbeard, anyone but Beardbeard! Someone save him!
<a href='http://img35.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img35ℑ=fire25qc.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img35.exs.cx/img35/9397/fire25qc.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Ninja promptly begins to extinguish the patch of fire Beardbeard is NOT trapped in.
<a href='http://img35.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img35ℑ=toaster8nk.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img35.exs.cx/img35/3041/toaster8nk.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Meanwhile in the kitchen, Gordon enjoys a toaster pastry.
<a href='http://img35.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img35ℑ=fire33wa.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img35.exs.cx/img35/455/fire33wa.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Well that'll teach her, now Ninja's on fire. Beardbeard breathes a sigh of relief as Ayumi finishes extinguishing him. Gordon has finally showed up and proceeds to flail the extinguisher around like a Gluon gun.
<a href='http://img35.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img35ℑ=reaperbob9xb.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img35.exs.cx/img35/8536/reaperbob9xb.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
Alas, there was nothing Gordon could do. Grim's friend Bob deals with the paperwork. "Hey Bob, howya doing?"
<a href='http://img35.exs.cx/img35/5050/kick8lw.jpg' target='_blank'>Clicky</a>
R.I.P Ninja, one down, six to go.
For some reason I can't get that last image to display right whatever I do, just click the link.
Well that's all for this episode, I should just point out that I didn't intend for Ninja to die just yet; I was hoping the Ninja versus Pirate battle could rage on. Sadly it seems that Pirates truly are better than Ninjas, or at the very least are more flame-retardant.
*Ninja Pirate edit* Hmm, whenever I click the thumbnails it redirects me to imageshack's front page, anyone else getting that? It wasn't doing this before...
to bad the links don't work (as you pointed out)

Fix'd.
Now that the ninja is gone there is noone that can stop BEARDBEARD!!! HAR
Uh, well just don't place anything that makes "pain from teh red light" near him..
Besides that... I think Ayumi is going down next... she will be kicked down the stairs if thats possible <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Could get the freeman fight oging on again? some action <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And this is so great laughed off the chair while reading <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Creating your own... eh, venmoch?
Or have weird love triangles.
Or something.
ENTIRELY MALE!
However I would like to mod a tentacle monster in there somehow.
That'd kick ****.
None, entirely done with cheats <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Go to the neighbourhood screen, hold ctrl+shift+c to bring up the console then type "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true". Then go to "Create-a-family" and hold shift+n. Voila, debug mode. From here you can do all kinds of stuff. One thing you can do is set your sim's everyday outfits to ANY of the existing outfits in the game, including those for proffesions or NPCs; mimi is actually wearing the burgalar NPC outfit for example.
I think i'll have one more "challenge" like that at the end of the next episode (to be released whenever I feel like it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ), and from that point on, who lives and who dies will be down to the public vote.... that's YOU people, get voting!
Oh and thanks for fixing my thumbnails Jimmeh, what did I do wrong?
*edit* Incidentally, I don't tell Mimi and Ayumi to run around in their underwear, they do that of their own accord.
I'm not sure but I basically copied the thumbnail image's URLs and removed the .th.
4 White persons, 4 Black Persons, chairs and other furniture to fill in the for remaining pieces.
Who's with me?
The Sims discover that a mysterious mouse cursor has been stalking them.
Unforunately,they then discover that evil Suite has destroyed all the doors and windows.
Further to add,Suite then starts a fire and watches as they burn down.
The catch is,I placed the key to the hidden cellar escape in the stomach of one of their bodies. And I've given them guns to shoot each other.
And the credits roll to "Saw 2"................ <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Day 6:
There is no day 6. The Sims 2 doesn't have guns or keys. They all died of inflammation/starvation. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
