Not a hugely urgent question. Just some curiosity that's been picking at me, ALL DAYWhat does hb, on a house description mean. Like i know br=bedroom and ba=bathroom but what DOES hb mean.?I'm playing on Moonlight Falls and the Van Goulds house is called Massively Massive Mansion (3br, 3ba, 3hb)I've had a look inside the house at all the rooms but i still can't figure out what it is and it's been nagging at me all day even though it's probably something simple. >:|So any answers? (: :D :?:

Half-bath most likely. Like a toilet and sink, one you usually find on the main floor for guests to use.

Two, there are two rooms in the basement.The description also says 3 baths when there are 4 full baths. So I stand by HB being half bath as that is what I've always known it to be in regards to house plans.They screwed up in counting the bathrooms, pretty sure they screwed up counting the half baths, mistook one of the full baths as a half bath when writing the description.

Even EA miscounts bedrooms and bathrooms in some of the houses they've put into the worlds, and some that are in the library, so I wouldn't take that fact that the actual number of bathrooms & half bathrooms doesn't match the listed count as proof it doesn't mean half bath.

Never mind. I didn't notice the date of the OP, and replied before I got to where I'd already posted the same thing I originally posted here. I'm sitting here on my computer waiting for our son to get here, so we can load our stuff into his Blazer and all go out of state to spend a week with our other two kids and our grandchildren, so I'm kind of distracted.

@Cracker,
~~Maybe it's for Hoverboards that's in the game~~... :)

If it's the Party Playpen house, then it means that they have 2 half bathrooms

With inflation over the years, that's got to be worth at least six and a half or seven cents by now. >:)

Normally it means Half Bath which means no shower or tub but does have toilet and sink.But in my game HB means hidden Basement where I take all my kidnapped sims lock them up and make them paint pictures I sell to fund my takeover of Sunset Valley.

Yeah, you're right. I already inflated it from two cents, but that was a few years ago, and I'm sure it should be higher now. Maybe we should say our dime's worth now. Somehow that doesn't sound quite right, though.

Does that include GST and PST in Canada? :D That would be about 11.4 cents in Canada depending on province. :D

Hey Simmers, as the mystery of "HB" has since been solved, I'm closing this thread. ;)
