~ Working On A New Legacy ~

Sorry guys I haven't updated in a while. I know, I'm lame I'm lame.
But I have exciting news, I'm starting a legacy! (again)
A few of you may remember my past legacies, the Benson and the Walcott legacies.
They were both quite successful, problem being they were buried in the story boards.
So I've decided to just make it a forum thread legacy! :D
I'm working on my new legacy RIGHT now!
In a matter of irrelevance, I've also been invited to collaborate this very blog with a website that works with a ton of blogs. But I don't think I'll be accepting.

That's all the details I'm *willing* to give you. ;D

Stay tuned!

How is everyone?

Title is pretty self explanatory.
I'm sooooo busy lately so I haven't had time to blog. But heres an update just telling you the blog WILL GOOOOOO ON! :D

- Why505erious posts the comment of the century -

It originated as a thread by Kateness, addressing us all of the most recent case of plagiarism of her items. Classically, James did what James do best:



Which was followed by a swift reply from Why5o5erious, who said what we are all so tempted to speak.



Best. Comment. Ever.

A Case of the Bird Flu

If you're wondering why I'm blogging less. It's because my life is becoming gradually busier with school and whatnot.
Today was one of the few days that I decided to take a turn into the General Discussion side of town.
And of course, as if on cue, someone had completely lost their mind.



At first I thought this could've been him just calling his recently created simmies "Lovebirds". Nothing wrong with that now I s'pose.
Meanwhile CourierVaughn posted one of my favorite lines on the forum....ever.



Somehow in some way, the line struck me in a hilarious fashion. After reading a few more of the posts on the thread, I slowly came to the realization that this guy's post and sims came nowhere into correlation with one another.



And to put my concerns at ease, he confirmed his insanity and Off Topic intention.



It's a good thing "MisterZii" got more out of this thread than I did. :-{

~ Random Times with Smozzigold ~

Wolfie's not my sidekick for the record.

Have I ever told you guys how much I love Panera Bread? I love Panera Bread.
I've been watching old Glee episodes. Santana and Quinn are officially my new favorite characters. They also have the best voices in my opinion.
Brittany is just annoying. Reminds me of a certain situation.



BG everyone's fascination with your plan has blown over. Quicker you realize that the better.

Bevy - Updates

Well after a long deserved trip I'm back to the same old same old.
Not really sure what to blog about. College starts soon and I finally have my own apartnment! I edited an image of Santigold and made it look super cool. Check it out! (I also made a sim of her, keep reading!)



I've also just created my very first Berry Sweet Sim! Smore VanGooey! (She's also the very first Smore themed sim) I have big plans for her such as the next Berry Sweet Cycle!



Download Link for Smore VanGooey! Rec's are welcome!

And recently before my trip I tried to recreate Santigold simming style! She's had huge success and I just thought I'd share her with you guys!



Download Link for Santi! Rec's are welcome!

My Playlist

I just noticed how much my playlist varies at the bottom.
It's got a lot of party-ish songs, calm/indie songs, and then songs that reflect my personality.

It starts out nice and indie and then switches more into the crazy side of things.
Ehhh, I guess it's good to like different kinds of music.

Whats your favorite song on my playlist?

Permabanned - Livid as Hell

Yeah well I've been perma'd. I'm not going to post the usual screen capture of all the "permanently terminated from our system" shit. You bet like hell I'm coming back. You can't get rid of Smoz that easy fools.

This isn't very rectacular.

A Lesson for You All - Random Acts of Kindness

Today was a usual day for me on the forums until I randomly decided to friend request someone because of how much I liked there username and because they needed help I couldn't give. Little did I know I would be gifted in return! With the message saying "Thank you for befriending me!" I would like to say thank YOU Chickadee183. Because to taught me an important lesson. A truly nice person does good when nobodies watching. Thank you for that.

The Worst Line in Scriptwriting History - ROTFL worthy moment

I love this video so much.

theflamethrower31/AceFlamingo23/Nashville_Kittens has Finally Lost It - A Most Comical Post

In the beginning, it started as usual with flamethrower31 denying every claim and screen capture made of his true identity. Someone had quoted the picture I'm about to show you. But of course, in classic style ace/flame edited his post saying that the guy had "photoshopped" his quote of flame. What did flamethrower31 say BEFORE he edited the post? Look below:



Ok. The proof is in the pudding with that one. Both trolling accounts, Nashville_Kittens and AceFlamingo23 were banned. 2 accounts banned. Funny flamethrower31 has been banned TWICE. Soon to be a 3rd time if we all get our way. (Work with us Mods work with us) Why would you be stupid enough to even post that Flame/Ace/Nashville? Tsk tsk tsk. Trolls never learn.

But. Then it happened. He flipped off his rocker. Please be warned that the following pictures are full of utter fail. And strange, awkward animal noises.





This was probably the point where he lost hope in himself.

Oh Shit - AceFlamingo/Nashville_Kittens is BACK ~ (A Developing Story)

Yep. You heard it. Our worst fear is back on the forums on a totally new account. I caught him before he slyly edited his post that sneaky scoundrel. Still not convinced? Look at what the thread was about.




Soon after I busted the fiend with my Screen Capture picture I refreshed the page to immediately find that, surprise surprise, he had edited that same post with a new PSN name. Oh Ace, when will you learn.



STILL not convinced? Look at his signature. Back when Nashville_Kittens was around his signature was Loyalist to EA. Well check out this guys signature.

Surely you jest. - Bewilderment ensues

You could have at least thought of a better name.

The Blog's gotta new look! - Opinions

So last night I spent a lot of time fixing up the blog and giving it a new look! So please provide comments and feedback! Or even a reaction!

Featured Download - Stephanie Eagle

I've stumbled across a sim created by Evergreen226 that immediately caught my eye! Stephanie was included in a thread featuring a few of his most recent creations. The others were good, but Stephanie immediately caught my eye and shimmered a unique quality among the pictures of the others! A down-to-earth coolness that seemed to compliment the cute addition of freckles! Her traits are: Athletic, Brave, Perfectionist, Artistic, Genius. A nice collection of traits that all correlate well with one another! The download for Stephanie is below!

CloverStarDropper is back! - Rejoice

Yep! Clover is back and is more blunt and humorous than ever! Glad to have you back with us Clover!

Someone has too much nerve - New Troll on the Horizon?

Have you ever seen a more ignorant statement in your life? And it was directed to the nice and helpful CourierVaughn of all people! Ignore him Courier, you are very intelligent and kind/helpful.

With dearest regards,

Smoz

Capturing the Moment

Evergreen226 reached 10000 posts today! Here's a pat on the back buddy!

Have no fear! It was only temporary

For those of you who are avid readers of the Mare's Nest. I would like to reassure you I am not permanently banned. It was only 72 hours. Just to put things back into reality.

Have a grand day,

Smoz

Extreme Makeover Sim Edition - Feedback!

I've been working on this makeover assignment for some time now, here is the description:

"Meet Lauren Fairchild. She a recent college grad who's on the prowl for a job. She has many interviews lined up, but with nothing to wear. She would like something nice to wear to these interviews that is also casual. She would also like you to use a little bit of her favorite color, Spiceberry."

After testing many business casual outfits with the color Spiceberry (It's not the prettiest color!), I came up with this finished product!



How well did I do guys? Please provide comments and feedback as they are very much welcome!

Sincerely,

Smoz

I've been banned. Loosen up EA! - A Rant

I have been banned for 72 hours. I sent my friend 0hDarling an email and she announced my ban to the forums. All I can say is, nice work EA. Ban all of your true and dedicated members. It took you an enormous amount of time to ban Nashville_Kittens/AceFlamingo. Who called me a communist and insulted me because of my political opinion. It's fine. I'll just come back in 3 days the same old Smoz! I gotta admit I saw a ban in my future, but I didn't care, I was having some fun! Why am I banned you ask? Well let's just say the other day on the forums I snapped and got a little crazy. Creating a completely OT thread that lasted for 27 pages. Major Fail Moderators. What I found comical is the way they moved all of CloverStarDropper's random threads to the "Create A World" section for some unknown reason, while mine remained on the General Discussion. Another contributing factor is the cranky old Zolt. A complete stick in the mud. When I noticed Zolt's post to a help thread, his reply totally averted the original topic. I couldn't help but post a humorous response with a picture of Mario jumping into the abyss with words that say "YOU FAIL". He then preceded to state the rules to me and called me a troll. It was a joke Zolt, sheesh. He was the only person on that thread that found my post rude. During my ban I've made the decision to patch up some bad relationships with other simmers and make things right. All the others actually thought it was funny! On a different note, -It's Folk Art- WILL resume after my ban is through!

See you guys in 3 days,

Smoz

Seven Deadly Sins - A Few First Impressions

I've been a total Seven Deadly Sins fan from the start of Cycle 1. The whole concept of the modeling competition was interesting and contained oodles of originality! Not to mention the great and very talented shots that were turned in week after week!
Now I've decided to come and share a few of my opinions on some of the shots for assignment one. The models assignment was to appropriately display their sim's sin creatively.
LuxuriantLady87 - Sloth

I really liked this shot for some reason. The image is bright and pops while still portraying the sin (sloth). The environment and set the sim was placed in was perfect for a "sloth". Though I feel as if a little editing could have gone a loooong way!
Amazing1239 - Greed

I thought Amazing1239 had thought up a really good concept for this shot. She stated that the sim dressed up as a homeless beggar just to make quick cash. When really she was a very rich sim who had many amenities. Good work!

I expect many more shining shots in this competition, and believe me, I won't hesitate to share.

Featured Download - McKenzie Dawson

I'm glad to be back from my 2 week hiatus and I just wanted to share McKenzie. A creation by NotShortFunSize. She has a very good look to her and is by far one of my favorite sims! I hope you enjoy her as well!

A 2 week hiatus and Creation of the Week!

Well, I know I just made this blog but I have to say that I won't be back until next Thursday or so! Sorry! I have awful timing!
But, on a higher note I would like to share the Creation of the Week!

Here we have classic Kanye West "Shutter Shades" created for the Sims 3 by Tiro! They are a perfect addition to a Party Animal's look and automatically add flair to any sim's fashion! But be warned, the item is from The Sims Resource, which has been known to cause problems and viruses. If you have proper protection you should be fine.

Little Courtney Steel. Cutest toddler ever?

It was another average day in Neverglade for me until Charlie Miller (created by NotShortFunSize) and EA made Christopher Steel received the wonderful gift of a newborn baby girl! After a long thought process, I decided to name the young girl Courtney because it would capture her future essence of beauty and popularity! Expect future updates about Courtney and the growing Steel family!

Greetings!
