Mysterious Mr Gnome

In the little version of the pic, it looks like Evil Gnome is pulling the other guy's beard. :lol:

So I see. It all depends on how you look at it :lol:

Don't have the Evil or the witch yet - she's the only seasonal gnome I'm missing right now. I'm always overrun with Zenyattas; I have about 5 named and periodically sell off an extra 8-10.

I thin Zenyattas appear when you have a horse that licks the salt lick a lot. As horses do. I rarely play with pets so I haven't had any of the gnomes that cam with that EP yet.

Mine like to hang out in the garden:



And for some reason, Bonehilda likes to keep trying to feed them:



She'll leave the plate a while, then put it in the fridge and pull out a new quick meal to put on the table, then later replace that. I couldn't figure out where all the random leftovers were coming from at first!

I've noticed lots of plates of links appearing all over my lots when I have a lot of gnomes. I never see where they come from but they just appear and I can't get rid of them. Bonehilda is rarely in my games so I can't blame her for it.

Cracklin Nackerbell is one of the gnomes I find easy to get as I think I've got her worked out. There are other ways to get her, but I send all of my Sims to the Fall Festival and make them go through the Haunted House until she slips into the inventory of one or more of my Sims.

The Spring gnome seems to be in some of my games in multiples as he can appear just about every time I get a Sim to go on an Egg hunt at the festival. I don't get him every time but in some games I've had 5 or 6 of him in no time.

I'm having problems working out how to get the Summer and Winter gnomes though. I have had each of them turn up once in one game. They both just appeared by the letter box. The Winter gnome sat in the snow all winter while summer stood by the letter box until fall then came inside and watched TV.

I always leave lots of space around my houses now so I can build many snowmen and igloos during winter as well as sending sims to the winter festivals but Winter gnome just doesn't want to show up.

The rest of my gnomes either appear in someone's inventory or they get them out of the Wishing Well that I always place somewhere on my lot. That way I get to see the pixies and the sims can fish during winter as the WW doesn't freeze. I have it inside so they don't get cold while fishing.

Thank you for showing your gnomes.
