The Grimalldis - Ballet Couple Deco Sims

AAAAHHHH!!!! My first deco sims I'm sharing!! So excited! I made these for one scene and will probably never use them again. A huge huge thank you to @warwickroyals!! without Ayanna's help, I would have probably given up on learning how to make deco sims! 

2 deco sims, 3 swatches each they have custom thumbnails all LODs, high poly! I'm still learning here You can find it by searching thegrimalldis pose by raygunposes

False Start, the Entire Website

Since we're coming up on one year since Blaseball returned, and I've been posting about all of the testing data that was pulled from the website, I thought it might be fun to talk about when the website accidentally went live prior to launch.

On January 4th, 2023, and flooded by Internal Error:, the Blaseball website briefly went live, showing off the newly-made website, and perhaps more interestingly, a glimpse at games in progress.

Thrown into the middle of an unknown season, we were shown the state of the game as of Day 52, and shown a different-looking overview screen as opposed to what we actually got when the game launched.

Aside from the interesting graphic that showed above the games, we can see that every game was scheduled as occurring underneath Blood Rain, a weather that didn't make the jump into the Blaseball we got to see.

Another fun aspect of this sim that we got to see were the players.

When Blaseball went live, every team was offered four new players, on top of the ten that they received in Fall Ball. Here, the same was true, though the players that each team got were not the same as what we actually got.

In this instance, here are the players each team received as completely new faces.

To join all of these players lost to the sands of testing, there were a number of returning faces that were scattered throughout the league. Be it from Horizon weather or otherwise, some players ended up as scrambled as their former teammates in Beta:

(edit jan 5 2024 - Ayanna Dumpington was also on the Wild Wings)

Ultimately, the website was promptly shut down, and this simulation went quiet until the game actually launched, and all of the players listed out here were either wiped away, or returned to their proper place in the hole.

Happy almost-one year!

Thanks to Astrid for saving the rosters - while some teams like the Georgias, Sunbeams and Crabs were captured by her, Agent Moon, and beiju respectively, not every team had pictures saved, so the files were necessary to see them!

Also thanks to korvys for screenshotting the website when it went live!

Happy Simblr Gratitude Day!!

There's so many amazing people that I follow, and I know I can never name them all, so if you don't get mentioned on this list, PLEASE don't feel bad. I know for a fact that I'm going to miss some incredible people.

(under the cut for length)

@simlit - possibly the best "bachelor challenge" to ever exist. An incredible story with compelling characters, excellent writing, and stunning visuals. I binge-read all of COTS in one day, and whenever it updates, it's the highlight of my day.

@simgerale - Miranda is so incredibly talented. She makes the most beautiful sims, and her story Regal that just finished recently might just be my favorite story anyone has ever posted on tumblr. I've been following it since more or less day one. Also her legacy family is ADORABLE.

@softpine - the last of my top 3 stories on simblr. Everything Brandi writes is so incredibly detailed and filled with so much love. There is so much nuance and detail that goes into all of her posts, and all of her characters are delightfully complex. I binge-read the entirety of Camellia over two days, and it was a DELIGHTFUL experience.

@potionio - Omen makes some of the most amazing sims I've ever seen. Everything they make is GORGEOUS, from sims to builds to edits. Amazing alt fashion and spooky vibes all around. Also just an awesome friend.

@panicsimss - another amazing spooky simmer. Panic has gorgeous OCs, and I love everything she makes. Poppy and Hudson have my heart!!

@salemssimblr - Ash makes incredible renders, and is also just very kind. She's an awesome friend, and I'm so glad to have met them!!

@goldenwaves - Izzy is another incredible render-maker and editor. They also are the creator of some of the most fun and interesting dnd ocs I've ever had the pleasure of playing with and hearing about. Plus, her new story Heartbreakers is super awesome!!

@wileyfern - They post adorable gameplay, and their legacy family has been going strong for a long time now. Her current heir, Ocean, is super fun to follow!

@void-critters - Jay makes amazing edits and has some amazing dnd ocs that I love hearing about. They're also super kind and a great friend.

@warwickroyals - Ayanna's story is one of the only royal simblr stories I really follow very closely on here, and for good reason!! The level of nuance and commentary that goes into her story is very special. If you're going to follow a royal simblr, let it be this one!! Plus some very cool cc!!

@heartblobs - A very lovely historical simmer who just recently started a new decades challenge!! Ellie's current family is super cute, and I can't wait to see them grow!

@wildmelon - Lush makes some of the most gorgeous sims I've ever seen, as well as amazing edits!!! Also a critical role fan, which makes me happy.

@rebouks - Somnium very quickly became one of my favorite stories on simblr, and now Forever In Between is following in the foorsteps! Becca has adorable sims, and blends an excellent mix of gameplay and storytelling. She's also an INCREDIBLE pose maker.

@ghostputty - Ky makes INCREDIBLE edits, including those very famous eye edits. Also, their story, Deck of Fate, is fascinating, and I can't wait to read more!!

@raiiny-bay - Rai makes amazing renders, and their Monster Boys universe and lore is FASCINATING. I could read about the zombie boys for hours!

@arcanewonder - Sara's renders are on a whole 'nother level. Truly nothing compares. The fantasy vibes are immaculate! Plus, her simblreen treats from years past have saved my ass in decorating the castle for RTQ/ATQH.

@barbieaiden - Sam makes some of the most awesome renders I've ever seen, not to mention his stunning story and intriguing OCs. I love Sam and Aiden, am morbidly fascinated with Tristan and Kas, and am eagerly awaiting the day I get to hear about his pirate OCs.

@rainymoodlet - Shan's sims are all GORGEOUS, but Dan is truly the best of them all. Dan's bachelor challenge, KMIK, is amazing, and even though my boy may be out of the running, I'm very invested to see who ends up stealing Dan's heart.

@samssims - Sam is a pillar in this community. Her NSB family captured my heart right away, and her unique method of storytelling is so cool. Not to mention her poses, which are a must-have!

@laeska - Makes some of the best hairs in the community, and all totally free!! Her simblreen gifts this year were amazing, and I have all of her cc in my game.

@retro-plasma - Corn's sims are beautiful, and their gameplay posts are stunning! They truly have a talent for making things come alive!

@omgkayplays - A truly incredible simblr. Stunning builds, mindboggling edits, drop-dead-gorgeous sims, and a fascinating story are all reasons to give Kay a follow.

@seaslugsims - Their story is awesome, their cc is amazing and very useful, plus they're super kind and amazing!!!

@simandy - Ellen is literally the first simblr I followed, back when I joined this hellsite 5+ years ago. Her cc is amazing, and absolutely a must-have in my game.

I know I've missed people, but I think I've hit my limit on tagging people. Either that or tumblr's just throwing a fit at how long this post is. Either way, each and every person I follow deserves a spot on this list, so don't feel bad at all if I missed you!!! I follow over 400 people, all of whom are amazing.

5 Amazing CC Makers

This is a non-exhaustive list of some of my current favorite CC makers! It was hard to winnow it down to just five people, but here are a few standouts whose stuff I've been loving, lately.

@surely-sims: quirky, unique mid-century BB objects

If you're one of the readers of Anne's incredible Plott Legacy, then you're probably a lover of vintage/retro vibes and silly puns. Fortunately, she's brought that exact same energy to all of her incredible build/buy objects. The names and descriptions of all her objects channel the vibes of earlier sims game and add a certain je ne sais quoi to builds.

@warwickroyals: unique, fashion-forward dresses and gowns

Ayanna has an absolutely incredible eye for style. There is so much amazing royal CC out there, but with limited reference pools, it can get a little stale. Ayanna has never had that problem. Her downloads page has an amazing, curated vibe -- she's not just copying random dresses and gowns, she's choosing unique, fashionable pieces from real-world style icons. I really love her CC because it helps me give my sims unique personal style.

@chaotic-simss: family poses with personality

My story has been focused entirely on the lives and struggles of a bunch of unlikable adults, but it won't be long until those unlikable adults start having unlikable children. And I've already started bookmarking some of her amazing family poses to use once those babies arrive. I really love that her poses capture little moments in the life of a growing family and give each member personality, instead of just rigid, formal poses with uniform smiles.

@herecirmsims: high-quality poses for every occasion

My story involves a whole lot of people standing around and talking, and I'm so fortunate to exist in a community with so many incredible posemakers who make those conversations a little less tedious. She makes amazing, unique fantasy-themed poses, but even her simple emotion poses are amazing. Her poses are all lovingly made, with great attention to detail -- no stiff hands or blank expressions here, every single pose has incredible body language and expressive faces. Rapidly become one of my go-to posemakers for storytelling.

@rebouks: everyday poses to liven up your story

Okay, Becca is (deservedly) simblr-famous for her amazing storytelling, but I was first introduced to her work via CC finds blogs while I was searching for story poses. I particularly love her recent infant insanity series, which is a whole bunch of lively, expressive baby and toddler poses to bring life to the smallest sims.

NOVEMBER & DECEMBER ROUNDUP Lately, I've been thinking about all the amazing stories and legacies that've influenced who I want to be as a writer. I realized that I wanted to share the ones that I've loved most over the past month or so, and hopefully inspire others to share what inspired them! In no particular order, here are my November and December loves.

Forever In Between (18+) by @rebouks

Forever In Between has always been one of my favorite stories on tumblr, and it's usually what I read through to get myself back in gear and inspired to write! Becca puts so much love and passion into each line-- every character is rich with humanity-- it's hard not to get swept away.

WARWICK: Chapter III (16+) by @warwickroyals

Ayanna is truly a master in storytelling, and showcases her work through the sims in a way I'd never thought possible. Reading her posts is like stepping into a film. I can't recommend it enough, especially if you love devouring stories the same way I do!

Questioning: Identity by @lotuso3o

As part of Lotus' sixth gen in their whimsy stories legacy, they crafted this gorgeous post about Mariah's gender identity. I am a huge lover of any editing style that exudes warmth, and this one wrapped me up in a cozy blanket. Lotus' post is absolute perfection, it could be its own short story.

Nightlife Series (18+) by @nightlifeseries

Everything about the Nightlife Series brings out such nostalgia in me. It reminds me of of all the late night romantic, dramatic, and wild shows that were strictly off-limits growing up. This series has twists at every corner-- there's even a YouTube series to watch, too! I absolutely love coming back to it, and can't wait to see what happens next.

Get to know you - Sims Style

Thank your for tagging me, @daniel-fortesque & @bast-sims

What’s your favorite Sims death?

None (hate it when it happens); the most frequent one in my gameplays is the old age one.

Alpha CC or Maxis Match?   A mix between the two, it depends how well the CC matches the game's art style.

Do you cheat your sims weight? Not really; what I cheat is how muscular my female sims are as I play a lot the Acrobat career in TS3 Showtime and my girls bulk up too fast and too much.

Do you move objects? Ever since I learned about this particular (and very useful) cheat, yes.

Favorite Mod? Most of the Nraas mods, all of @thesweetsimmer111 fabulous baby/toddler mods and also small ones to correct some stuff in the game (like No Mascot Camera Zoom, No Autonomous Gaming, Autonomous Wash Hands After Toilet Use, Zoom-In CaS Camera, etc)

First Expansion/Game Pack/Stuff Pack? World Adventures.

Do you pronounce live mode like aLIVE or LIVing?   aLIVE  

Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? A lot of them, for different reasons.

Selena Noble - a ballerina (now an acrobat) with no moral compass. But I think she's cute so she's my muse for the balletcore collection.

Lin Young - my fearless adventurer.

Riley Preston - my talented artist.

Hope London - my dedicated gardener.

These three: Mel Hada, Ren Akiba & Jace White (aka Yasu Sato). They are the MCs from "Uncertainty".

I don't have pics of them right now, but I also have to mention: Sasha Azarov, Daichi & Rei Sato, Ayanna Sato, Sebastian DeLuca.

Have you made a simself? The first sim I ever made was a simself. It did not go well.

Which is your favorite EA hair color? None; since it's TS3 I mix them according to my characters.

Favorite EA hair? Not really using the EA hairs usually, but I'd choose the Playful Updo from Late Night.

Favorite life stage? I play a lot the YA & A life stages, but also enjoy all the other ones.

Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay?  I'm in for everything the game has to offer: gameplay, building, CAW, CC creation.

Are you a CC creator? Yup.

Do you have any Simblr friends or a Sim Squad? I wouldn't say a squad, but I do have people here that I admire and like to interact with.

Do you have any sims merch? Nope.

Do you have a  YouTube for sims? Yes (as I'm an ex-machinima creator), but these days I'm only using it when I have animations to share.

How has your “Sims style” changed throughout your years of playing? In every possible way. I put a lot more thought into my builds (and worlds), my sims no longer look like aliens (I used to make them have these big anime eyes) and my gameplays are more wish-based than ever.

Who’s your favorite CC creator? So many of them since I'm a big CC hoarder. As Daniel said, everyone who brings something to this game is a champion and deserves accolades.

But to mention only a few, I'd say @simtanico for their high quality items, @enable--llamas for the awesome furniture, ArtVitalex & Onyxium over at TSR who both still create furniture for TS3, Bill-Sims also at TSR, @sim-songs here on Tumblr for their conversions, @technicallyswagpizza for their amazing plants (and tutorials that taught me a lot), @yorithesims and @bmit04 for poses; @maryjanesims3 & @agnelid for hair default replacements, and so many more. Sorry, I can't remember everyone right now.

How long have you had Simblr? Since January 2019.

How do you edit your pictures? For more aesthetic pics I use Reshade and PS (although I don't remember ever posting these types of pics), but I usually just slightly adjust the brightness, contrast, saturation and exposure in PS as I love the TS3's default art style (I'm just spicing it up a little).

What expansion/ gamepack is your favorite? Kinda all of the expansion packs?! Mainly Seasons, World Adventures, Late Night, Island Paradise, Generations. Also love all the functional store content and worlds.

Tagging:  @technicallyswagpizza @chojrak-making-things @agnelid @murfeelee @simtanico @puffkins2000 @yorithesims @enable–llamas @solori @pudding-parade @faerielandsims @jazzysimlife @tiaamorosa @lordressdragoonbear @thesweetsimmer111 @bmit04 @maryjanesims3 @nornities

Feel free to ignore if not interested or have done this before! 😁😘

meet ayanna - our firstborn 👧❤️

she already loves farm life!

[warwickroyals]

Hi Ayanna! Literally just sending a message of appreciation: you and Rusty are the only Sims 4 CC creators I have come across who make elegant 80s style clothing, clearly because you share an appreciation for the style of Princess Diana and the female royals who have followed. Thank you!! Your Sloane Ranger pack has filled a massive hole in my Sims CC storytelling and I am excited to (hopefully) see more :) Very best to you and yours x

What! Thank you so much, I'm so happy you like my CC. I'm glad that it's filled a void for you because that's always my intention <3

[trentonsimblr]

Happy December! What was your favourite moments of 2022 on simblr? They can be from your blog or someone else’s <3

Ayanna! I am FINALLY getting around to answering this.

So I'll start with favorite things from my blog:

My Payton lookbook Challenge

I learned how to make deco sims!

My women's day post

Everly's Fashion show

My mother's day post

My Ryland Flashback

The KBE Next Top Model Collab with @bridgeportbritt

There's a bunch of other posts that I'm proud of/are my favorite but I don't want to make this post too long.

Onto other blogs!

Finding awesome new simblr stories to follow: @theroyalthrones, @houseoflennoxx, @crownsofesha, @olympianroyals, @the-lancasters, @arendelleroyals1, @albanyroyals, @royalmedani and many more that I either followed last year and/or have finally caught up on their stories.

I know it's been mentioned 5011 times but @thegrimalldis wedding fake out was :chef kiss:

FINALLY catching up on your story! I hate Shelby and I feel for Philip. I just want happiness for him.

Connecting more and making plotting chaos with peeps

@ardeney-sims side story that was meant to be a few posts but turned into a masterpiece

@whitmoreroyals returning to her modern story

@armoricaroyalty, @nexility-sims, @funkyllama, @digital-deluxe, @sosa-royals for just existing (I mean your stories are well thought out and the esthetics are amazing)

@thevalencianroyals story making it's return!

For anyone that I missed (and I know I have), you are also a favorite part of 2022. This community has grown so much and has become such an encouraging and positive group that I am so happy to be apart of.

Cheers to 2023 being even better!

[thegrimalldis]

I agree with the ChisEmi getting old anon, its time to focus on the collars of today. Mina deserves the same attention as Chisemi, if not more bc Ayannas creativity in every one of those posts is impressive. Theres also a ton of people collabing right now that Im sure would like an ounce of the same energy a years dead ship gets. You and Ayanna, Nexility-Sims and ArmoricaRoyalty, Funkyllama and OfficialRoyalsOfPierreland, and EmpireDeSimpartes whole funeral posts. I loved ChrisEmi, but its sad to see this as a story telling sims Tumblur.

Just to let you all know, Chrisemi is coming back for a bit in my story and will be front and center for their small storyline to finish Chris' arc 🙈

I know some of y'all are ready to move on from them but I'm not done just yet!
