@OJenn I love this!! I can't wait to have time to play Sims again so I can try out this new version of the challenge. Is the old thread/challenge still going too, or are we moving over here?
Also, how does this sound for the Brindleton Bay story...
Brindleton Bay - Animal Rescue
Brindleton Bay used to be quiet, slow-paced town nestled between the mountains and the coast. Nothing "big" ever happened there, until the earthquake... Homes and businesses that weren't leveled during the quake were quickly destroyed by resulting fires and mudslides. Most of the survivors took what they had and moved away to rebuild their lives--but not you. You have a heart for animals, and you stayed behind to rescue the poor pets that were lost and left behind in the chaos. As soon as the rubble is cleared, you plan to open a veterinary clinic to treat all of the sick and wounded animals, adopt out those that you can, and personally take in those that can't be adopted.
