The contestants were weary and hungry.
They had spent their time mostly sitting around the firepit, roasting things. Marshmallows were not very filling, though Motoki had a Sea Sludge and Meggie had a tomato.
Tita phoned them.
"Your first challenge is fishing. Who can catch the most fish will be the winner of this challenge. I'm taking you to the old fish-farm in the morning so be ready bright and early; it's a long walk."
| caught | |
| Jess | |
| Motoki | |
| Meggie | 6 anchovy 3 jellyfish 1 red herring |
| Myskaal | |
| Snow | 1 anchovy |
| Rufio | |
| Jeromy | |
| Jeebus | 1 anchovy 1 jellyfish |
Most did woefully badly. No boots though.
So from that challenge, Meggie is the clear winner. Tita told them that even if she lost this round, Meggie would not die.
They eventually managed to eat a little, though most still only had marshmallows. There was no sharing between this gang.
Snow and Motoki had been gardening with Meggie, but there was no ripe fruit yet.
Later, Rufio was so tired she put up her sleeping bag right next to the toilet - to book a place in the toilet queue for the following morning?
The next day turned out to be Meggie's birthday. She stood outside her tent for an hour shaking a rattle, but no-one took any notice.
Tita turned up, looking very cheerful, the next morning.
"Come on, lazy campers. Let's see who is winning. Or rather, who's won the booby prize.
Meggie caught more fish than anyone else, so she is safe.
I reviewed the footage from the hidden cameras, and it took me most of the day to do the calculations.
When all the scores were in, Myskaal was the clear "winner" with a total relationship change of -206.9. That's rather a lot. He had dropped particularly with Snow and Jeromy.
No surprises there, then, Jeromy! But Myskaal, what happened to you? let's have a look at some of the footage - I brought printouts."
Here we have Snow Bawl - it seems she had taken a shine to you, Myskaal. But you weren't very nice to her.
In fact you constantly rejected her. Sadly, that counted against you. And you didn't actually make friends with anyone else here, while she got to know a couple of people. So your score - well, sucks."
So Tita assembled them all in the graveyard, and simply bored him to death.
"A toothbrush is really good for cleaning those places that are hard to reach with a cloth - like the mouldy bit around the sides of your bath... of course a tissue can work just as well, if you fold it up just right..."
Of course if you're hungry then a toothbrush isn't much use. Oh, there you go."
"You're evil, you know that?" snarled Motoki.
Tita laughed in his face. "Oh, I'm so scared. I'm just doing my job."
"But he IS going to wake up again, isn't he?" Suddenly Jeebus was concerned. Not that he LIKED Myskaal much. Jeebus didn't like anyone very much.
"No."A voice boomed from the cemetery gate.
"Oh no, you mean he really IS going to die?"
SimGoddess had suggested Tita provide a buffet meal for the remaining contestants, since they were starving, and they were not all too grieved to eat, though they kept breaking off to cry and shout to SimGoddess about Myskaal having died.
Meanwhile, having calmly eaten his dinner in the cemetery, Jeromy went completely off his head and tried to call Llama Services.
By this time I was getting very tired of the constant stream of paparazzi (one or two of the Sims have Celebrity stars) and realised that some of the lonelier Sims were actually spending time talking to them and thus raising their Social bars. I installed Twallan's Register Mod to remove paparazzi and arranged for no paper deliveries. But I seem to have to redo this every time I restart the game.
I also fenced in the toilet and shower so that Sims were not constantly shooed into the Cemetery before anyone would perform their ablutions.
