🪄 Townie Makeover Time!!! 🪄

✨ Eliza Pancakes, Diego Lobo and Knox Greenburg suggested by @changingplumbob ✨ Siobhan Fyres suggested by @cupidblind ✨ Maaike Haas suggested by @shmoodlet ✨ Luna Villareal suggested by @matchalovertrait

Full-bodies and higher quality pics under the cut!!

Some of my favorite details:

✨Eliza's Cat-Eye glasses! Its a frame shape that suits her so well, and meshes with her stronger personality than the boring wire-frame ones she comes with as a premade.

✨Knox has dirt on his nose and a bucket hat that I think takes him from 0-100. Distinctive and goofy, in a way that I think he was always meant to pull it off. He looks so un-cool that it circles back to endearing.

✨Luna has gained a birthmark in the shape of a moon, because its cute and she's meant to be cute :3

Thank you all for the suggestions!! I tried to make them over not changing much their features, and trying to keep their color palletes and a style that matches their traits. 🧡

The weekend came.

And my game won't work properly.

And my Photoshop is crashing everytime I try to edit the Makeover sims picture.

I'm going to scream. Or cry. Or both

Also, has someone else had bugs to enter apartments? Specifically Diego Lobo's? The infinite loading screen isn't even *spinning* anymore. Just frozen. (On Business and Hobbies patch, btw. Still not in a good moment to update my game)

👀👀

Just a tiny spoiler ❤️

I don’t know when I’ll post it, but I wanted to show at least a little bit of the vibe 🙈

[paracosmic-sims]

WHAT???

WHAT???? NO WAY!!!!

Omg... ELIO YOU CRAZY BASTARD. YOU DID IT????

I'm speechless

Day 33 - Finale

The end of the season has come. We have our two finalists and now, all that's left to do is have our eliminated contestants come together to select which contestant will take home the grand prize!

Elio and Estrello had the wits, guts, and strength to persevere through the entire game, outlasting everyone else and now sitting here before you in hopes that they will be the one to take the win.

Like previous seasons, votes will be public and will go from the bottom of the leaderboard up! (aka last place to the most recently eliminated)

Without further ado, let us begin 😌

18th Place - Maeve Bargen

"Never knew either of you that well, but during the pathetically short time I was around I thought Estrello seemed alright, so I guess I'll go ahead and put my vote for him."

17th Place - Josue Suarez

"I'm voting for Elio, because they seem super cool and fun to be around. I think if I was around longer, we would have became friends."

16th Place - Lucian Bright

"Personally, I didn't like Elio that much, but I feel like I have to acknowledge that they always sought everyone out on Team Integrity, even me. I 'preciated it, so in return I'll vote for them."

15th Place - Espresso Bean

"Oh, I really like you both! I knew this vote would be really hard! If I would I'd vote for both of you, but my choice is Elio. They were so nice to everyone, even if they were on different teams!"

14th Place - Brendan Townsend

"Sadly I never really got to know either of you that well either, but the way Estrello led the challenge in Strangerville was pretty badass. Plus I think he's pretty chill, so I'm voting for him."

13th Place - Carson Foster

"Same reason as Brendan! I could NEVER do what Estrello did in Strangerville, braving through the toxic spores and beating up the Mother Plant like that. I can literally feel the asthma attack I would have had if I was in that challenge. So glad I missed it, but Estrello, you're the real MVP for doing it and leading it, so I'm voting for you!"

12th Place - Touma Reid Beasley

"Honestly sometimes I wish I was on the same team as Elio because they seemed so fun and outgoing. I'm not surprised they're in the finale. I think it's only right that I vote for them."

11th Place - Raylan K. Rodriguez

"I talked to Elio a couple times and I thought they were super nice. They're definitely someone I aspire to be like. I think they deserve to win, so I'm voting for them."

10th Place - Ziggy Skint

"I was closer to Estrello. I talked to him a few times. So I'm gonna vote for him because I think he deserves it!"

9th Place - Marilyn Moore

"Elio, I think if you went to my school, you would have rivaled me in popularity. It's clear that you too have lots of friends and can make them easily. As much as I wish I was in your seat, I just can't help but admire how you outlasted me, Nite, and everyone else using almost the same strategy as me. So, I'll vote for you, from one popular person to another."

8th Place - Minato Matsuda

"Elio, you're one of the coolest people I ever met. Like Touma I wish I was on your team too. We would have had a blaaast! Anyway, I'm voting for you too."

Tied for 6th Place - Alanna Castillo

"Obviously I'm voting for you, Estrello! I think you just might be the sweetest person I've ever met."

Tied for 6th Place - Tomiko Moriyama

"Tomiko has decided to vote for Elio, because Tomiko thinks they're super nice to everyone and thinks they deserve to win!"

5th Place - Matteo Peralta

"Elio. Need I say more?"

4th Place - Nite Crowe

"Oh, this was so, so hard for me. I absolutely loved competing with you both! You're both super nice and sweet and I wish I could vote for both of you too, but sadly that's against the rules, so my choice is Elio. I was really sad when Tomiko got eliminated, and they helped me feel better. I think that was really sweet of you, Elio. You didn't have to do that, but you did, so I want to return the sweetness by voting for you to win!"

3rd Place - Avery Bennett

"I promised Estrello I'd vote for him in the finale if I got eliminated and he didn't, but all-in-all he was really nice and both of our closest ally was Alanna, so we kinda bonded over that too. So yeah, my vote is with Estrello."

With a vote of 10-6, the winner of the 3rd season of Total Drama Sims is...

ELIO ALVORETTER!!!

CONGRATULATIONS @paracosmic-sims!! Elio has won the competition and has therefore won the grand prize! The grand prize consists of a small real-life award given personally from me (you will be contacted), while in-universe, whatever Elio receives is up to you! Whether it’s 1,000,000 simoleons, a mansion, or even a dream vacation, it’s theirs!

There will be one final post to close out Total Drama Sims: Season 3 and celebrate our winner! Stay tuned…

Day 33 - Challenge Day

We've arrived at our final destination, Newcrest, for our last challenge of the season! The rest of the cast is here because immediately after this challenge, we will have our season finale! So, the cast is here to both watch the final challenge and to vote for a winner as a jury!

So what's our final challenge about? It's pretty simple. All our final 3 needs to do is race through this maze, which ends where the rest of the cast is seated. The first two contestants to finish the maze will be in our finale, while the last contestant will be automatically eliminated and will join the rest of the cast in the jury!

Emotions our varied among our final 3. Elio and Avery feel pretty excited, while Estrello feels nervous but determined

Now that we've got the challenge explanation out of the way, let's commence our final challenge!

Our final 3 diligently race through the maze, with Estrello taking the lead! Don't mind his sour expression; he just really wants to be in the finale 😉

Eventually, our final 3 joins the rest of the cast, with Estrello and Elio finishing the maze first!

Which means that Avery, finishing last, has been eliminated from Total Drama Sims and will vote with the rest of the cast!

2 contestants remain...

Day 32 - Elimination Ceremony

Hope you all had a good sleep, everyone! (Or at least the best you could, because I know how nerve-wracking an elimination ceremony is!) Can I let you in on a little spoiler though? This is the final elimination ceremony of the season 😈 (Our eventual 3rd-placer will be eliminated in a special way)

So, give yourselves a pat on the back! Even if you end up being eliminated this ceremony, you've all at least made it through to see the very last one!

Without further ado, let's find out who's leaving the plane this morning. The following contestants are safe:

Avery and Estrello

The votes tied between Elio and Nite, so you know what that means! It's RNG time. The result is under the cut:

The contestant eliminated from Total Drama Sims is...

NITE CROWE

Challenge winner Avery has chosen Estrello to accompany her to first class!

@paracosmic-sims @invisiblequeen @kissalopa @hellogreta

[paracosmic-sims]

Finally got around painting Arielly's prosthetic!! It's still a first draft (and a bit blurry) but I'm very happy with it so far!

Also, was anyone going to tell me that SWRE is AMAZING to use with the tattooing system, or was I really just meant to figure it out by myself? I really recommend it!!! It allows you to "zoom" into the limb you're editing, past EA's frankly ridiculous fullbody view restriction, letting you be more precise with details!!

HEAVY credits to Li3lissaa on the gallery, who made the original leg, and @adelarsims for even putting the possibility of a tattoo-placement prosthetic on my radar

[paracosmic-sims]

Spoilers ahead for the townie makeovers! Unfortuntely, as I suspected, the better quality pictures will have to come next week ;u;

@changingplumbob requested Eliza, Knox and Diego (which I couldnt even start lol), @cupidblind requested Siobhan <3 thank you both

[paracosmic-sims]

I'm bored and in a CAS mood (when am I not in a CAS mood, I wonder?) Give me sims to makeover!!

I won't promise I'll post the results this week though, lol.

Day 29 - Elimination Ceremony

Good evening, friends! Tonight's elimination ceremony is a little special. Why? Because this elimination is the final time the immunity idol can be used. Contestants, the possessor of the immunity idol is still in the game, and should the idol not be needed tonight, the identity of the contestant who has carried it since all the way back on Day 6 will be revealed.

Either way, this contestant will no longer be protected from the immunity idol from today forwards, since is the final time the immunity idol will be valid. So rest assured they won't have immunity into the finale!

So, let's find out who that idol-holder was, and of course, who's going home tonight!

The following contestants are safe:

Avery, Elio, and Estrello (immune)

Matteo and Nite have unfortunately received the most votes out of everyone. The result is under the cut:

The contestant with the most votes was Nite! However...

Nite is the possessor of the immunity idol, so she will be using it (conveniently) on the final elimination it can be used! Is that destiny or what? Nite is therefore safe from elimination and the contestant with the second-most votes will be eliminated instead.

Which means that the contestant eliminated from Total Drama Sims is...

MATTEO PERALTA

Challenge winner Estrello has chosen Elio to accompany him to first class!

Today's Confessional: Matteo Peralta

"Well, I guess that's it for me. I'm not mad or anything, just a little shook since I wasn't expecting the immunity idol to be the reason I'm leaving, but oh well. I wasn't expecting to make it this far in the first place anyway, and my butt is sore from the challenge today, so I guess I need to rest up too... again..."

"The host has been saying that I'm a fan favorite, so she recommended that I do one final confessional before I leave the plane. So, um... If you've been watching me, thanks. I appreciate it. I had a lot of fun on here, more than I was expecting, to be honest. I met a lot of cool people on here. Especially Elio. I've got a lot to hand to them. I was kinda shy at first, but they helped me feel more comfortable talking to the others. They're the main reason this game was fun for me, and probably why I wasn't eliminated sooner."

"Obviously I'm gonna root for Elio. I think they should win. They're popular and have been awesome to everyone. I'm happy they were awesome to me too. I hope to come back to some of the places I visited with my band, so I guess stay tuned if you're from the places TDS has visited."

Day 27 - Challenge Day

Today's challenge is in Evergreen Harbor, and let's just say that we're getting our hands dirty 😈 If you hate being grimy and gross, then boy do we have the challenge for you!

The citizens of Evergreen Harbor not only love to leave their trash around, they're also known for their love to recycle and repurpose things. That's why we're going to one of Evergreen Harbor's community lots, where there's trash galore and dumpsters filled to the brim with stuff. Who knows what you might find in there?

So, for today's challenge, we're going to act like an Evergreen Harbor resident and dive in the dumpsters for whatever might be hiding in there! Y'know, to see if anything might be of use. 🤷‍♀️ The contestant whose object is the most valuable in simoleons wins invincibility and first class!

Elio dives in first, showing off their painted toenails while searching for anything of value.

Estrello and Alanna dive simultaneously; as a girl, it pains me that Alanna has to gross up her beautiful summer outfit, but the host in me is jumping for joy 😈

Matteo dives next, and while he dives, Avery decides to use the nearby recycling machine to recycle her finds, as sadly she was only able to find some worthless trash.

Tomiko had no problem diving in deep for her treasure! She is the final contestant to dumpster dive, so as soon as she found something it was time for the results!

RESULTS

Alanna: Dye (§10) Avery: Recyclable Trash (§0) Elio: Computer (§2,525) Estrello: §8 cash Matteo: §5 cash Nite: Chair (§130) Tomiko: Recyclable Trash (§0)

Well, I think it's pretty obvious who our winner is!

ELIO WINS!

Elio found a functional computer!! And with that they knocked this challenge out of the park! While Elio decides who they might choose to bring to first class, everyone is gonna have a shower because P-U, everyone stinks!

Oh, and remember how I said this challenge was special? Well, I was actually talking about our elimination. We're having a double elimination tonight! Teehee 😈 See you all at the ceremony!

Today's Confessional: Avery Bennett

"Oh my god, that challenge was so gross... While I had my hands in there I felt something slimy, and it turned out to be a super moldy takeout somebody threw out! Ugh! I made sure to take a long shower... At least I did some good by recycling the garbage that I found, since I didn't find anything good or usable."

FELIZ VIDA, CEREJINHA!!! 🤭🍒🎉

You don't imagine the rush that it was to finish this before her birthday post, but here it is!!! A very happy birthday to Cherry, may her Young Adult years bring her better decisions (we all know that's unlikely though)

[paracosmic-sims]

@matchalovertrait wants to hear about one of the most traumatizing portions of my life: my failed driver's test. Just for that, Amy, you're tagged in the bingo as well.

So, my pride is still bruised about it (I literally got my Driver's only 2 years ago, so in my head is still fairly recent), BUT:

First, a bit of Context - the drivers test here involved starting the parked test car, getting out of the parking until a spot marked to parallel park, then getting off of the parallel park, and driving around a (typically busy) block until the start/end point. And I think it's very brutal and unforgiving over some the most pointless shit, but I digress... (And by pointless, I mean literally harmless. Things that would likely never harm someone irl)

On my first attempt, I let the car engine die (which accounts for the biggest "passable" mistake, as if, you can't have any more mistakes after.) Then I got more nervous and it died again. Don't ask me why the car dying is such a high infraction, when it's something so common and mostly harmless irl. It only ever happens when you are already stopped, ffs! But ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

The second time, I managed to parallel park very prettily. But while I was going to exit, I missed the hand break still being pulled up. Three times, I was ready to leave and the car didn't budge. And it was Humiliating. Because the examiner was only waiting for me to notice to fail me off. I wouldn't even have gone over the allotted time for the section if I had been allowed to try, and irl there would've been NO consequences for that mistake. But, still failed me. Over a Petty Handbreak Still Active. While I was trying to get out of being parked.

The third one is the one I wince the most. The one that hurt the most. Because I managed to parallel park, get out of it, and going to the around the block portion. And there was a 2-way street with a car coming on one side (drivers, towards me) and a PARKED PICK-UP TRUCK. And me, still a newbie on the wheels, not computing that I should stop because that never had happened before and I was terrified of the car dying (see how dangerous those nitpicks are!! There was a chance it wouldn't have happened if they didn't terrify me over the risk of a dying engine if I stopped!!!) and I tried to fit myself in between both cars. And I had a shitty perception of how wide the car was from inside it. Still struggle with it, even. And my passenger's side backview mirror minorly touched (idk, might have scratched but I was so nervous to notice) the closed backview mirror of the pick-up. And I cried for the rest of the day.

I managed on the fourth time, though. Got out of the car white in the face and legs trembling, but I finally did it.

But yeah, I hope those terror flashbacks amuse you lol. Nowadays I forgot how to parallel park properly because I rarely used it for a year. And I'm still afraid to do so when there's traffic (ie. At least ONE car) coming behind me. So much for teaching me long lasting skills instead of just traumatizing students over petty stuff.

Miranda Armstrong by @paracosmic-sims 💚

As mentioned before: Ian (the current club president) is about to graduate, and of course, someone will soon have to take his place. That seems to be a clear goal for Miranda. And even though Derick has never spoken about it, some students are betting on him as a potential rival to Miranda.

The real question is: Has Juniper picked a side, or is she just going to stay on the sidelines and watch? 👀

Previous / Next Beginning (Gen 8)

Image transcripts (PT):

Miranda: Não sejam tímidos, pessoal, peguem a vontade!

Aluno: Aí sim!!

Miranda: Janet, você está chorando?? O que houve??

Janet: Daqui algumas horas eu tenho aula de ed. física… e dessa vez não vou conseguir escapar.

Miranda: Que chato… Mas olha, depois da aula a gente pode ir tomar algo gelado pra refrescar. Um sorvete, que tal??

Janet: Obrigada, Mi.

Miranda: Dakota, você não faz parte desse clube (rindo)

Dakota: Um passarinho me contou que teria doces grátis aqui, então eu vim!

Miranda: Fica a vontade, eu trouxe bastante.

Shawn: Não acredito que você vai conquistar a presidência do clube através da nossa barrida e olha que eu nem sou desse clube.

Miranda: Shawn! (rir) Eu amo cozinhar e como faço muitas coisas, eu trago pra cá. É só um agrado.

Derick: Começamos com as campanhas eleitorais mais cedo?

Shawn: É melhor correr, Derick ou a Miranda vai se tornar a nova presidente do clube!

Derick: Não se depender de você, Shawn, eu suponho. Você nem deveria tá aqui.

Shawn: Ei, eu fui convidado, tá?!

Miranda: Derick, não seja ranzinza! Shawn está aqui porque eu quero que ele esteja, não é o suficiente? Não deveríamos isolar nosso clube tanto assim.

Derick: Claro, e de repente isso vai virar uma zona. Com toda a escola querendo usar os computadores.

Miranda: Que mal tem? Ian trabalhou muito para conquistar esses computadores pro nosso clube, mas poucos usufruem. Então não vejo mal nenhum alguns colegas de outros clubes virem pra cá de vez em quando.

Derick: Sinto muito em te informar, Miranda, mas nossos "colegas" não vão te ajudar a chegar na presidência do clube.

Miranda: Engraçado… ninguém falou em presidência aqui, só você. Tá preocupado? Relaxa, Derick. Ser simpática com as pessoas não é crime. Ainda.

Derick: Você é realmente boa nisso, Miranda. Tentar comprar uma sala inteira com cupcakes e elogios. Deve dar um orgulho danado.

Miranda: (sussurra) Insuportável.

Miranda: Bom, quem não quiser comer, é só não comer! Eu trouxe pros que valorizam gentileza, não precisa desse rodeio todo pra dizer que não gostou do meu gesto.

Derick: Eu preferiria que quem NÃO é do clube de informática, vazasse daqui.

Miranda: São os MEUS convidados.

Janet: De repente… o clima aqui ficou meio pesado…

Miranda: (suspira e sorri) Mais um dia e mais uma tentativa falha de converter o Derick aos doces.

Janet: Você leva essa missão muito a sério, Miranda, to quase montando uma torcida pra você.

Miranda: Vou precisar, porque desistir não é uma opção (ri e Derick ignora o resto da conversa).
