MSC: The Theresa Dolphina Story (deleted)

[moondaisy]

Dear all!

At the beginning of September 2009, I found out about the Sim of the Month Challenge, created by Pinstar. It's a series of much shorter challenges than his legacy challenge and suited for the more impatient type of simmer like me.

I continue with Theresa Dolphina, the second Sim of the Month and wrote a day-to-day account of her experiences.
When Gordon beat the Docker Dolphins, they commissioned the Science Facility to create a living mascot. That would be Theresa Dolphina, but she escapes the Docker Dolphins and has an important mission of her own...

You can click here to start reading her story from the beginning, or click on the 'chapters' in the index below.

Please comment as you read along and have a wonderful time!

I’ve called this "MSC: The Theresa Dolphina Story", because I realise other people may want to have a go at these challenges as well. MSC stands for ‘Moondaisy’s Sim Challenges’.

Have a wonderful time reading!

It IS a wonderful time reading about the very conflicted but driven Theresa! I'm anxiously waiting to see what is decided in the poll.

[moondaisy]

DB! The relief to see you, to know you got The Foliage Legacy sorted, is huge!
You're my special friend for posting a comment in worriesome times like these!
Thank you very much!

Yay! I'm caught up now!! I left my vote and comments about it on your page. I have to stay, it took me a little longer to warm up to Theresa than it did for me to love Gordon.....I'm not sure why. I think for some reason, it just seemed like he had a lot more to overcome than Theresa did.....I mean, his struggle didn't have the same epic importance, perhaps, but it was such an underdog story, you know? I hope he and Agnes and Peter fare well through all this...

[moondaisy]

Thank you so much, Rachel.
Your comments were great and much appreciated! I've replied to them all. Thank you for voting. (The 'psychic line' was only open for 48 hours and I'm glad your vote is in.)

Yes, Theresa is a different character. She almost completed the challenge too fast for the pace of the story too. But I'm glad you eventually warmed to her!

That's an idea!
I always start my new challenge on a Sim Sunday (so no-one gets an advantage/disadvantage by starting on different days). This probably gives me a window to do a small update on how Gordon, Agnes and Peter have been getting on!

[raquelaroden]

Yay!! *thrilled*

[Catherine]

Yay! Can't wait to see the Loadsworth family!

[mdpthatsme]

Makes me miss my test subjects of The Sims2 Excellent though.

[moondaisy]

Hiya, MDP!

Thrilled you read it! Thank you for the compliment. Now that I've finished the story, I'll be soon reading yours. Can't wait in fact.
Btw, I like Sims2 as much as Sims3 (think maybe more after seeing what Laura did with it in Lakeside Heights).

[moondaisy]

Yippeeeee!!!

Epilogue is posted - Theresa's story is finished!
I'm sitting here with a glass of chilled Pinot grinning like a kid. Well, age notwithstanding, I am a kid!

Hope you all enjoyed it! ;D

[rad]

It was great. I'll miss Theresa!

[dbloveshermac]

Excellent ending! Beautifully and sensitively done.

Bring on the next one!

[moondaisy]

Thank you, girls!

[moondaisy]

I am truly sorry to announce that I can't do an update on Gordon. With story progression in place it is unfair to the latest/newest contenders in Sim Challenge Valley. Yes, truly sorry.
