When do my poor Sims stop having fires?

My rotational project involves four households.

First household (single YA male) lived in the gremlins apartment which caused the repair serviceman to be electrocuted. Just lucky my active Sim was able to pled with Grimm. Then, during a version of Guy Fawkes, he lit some fireworks and had them backfire {which results in soot covered Sims in need of a shower}. >:)

Second household had a dryer malfunction. There was no “Clean Lint Tray”, but the dryer caught fire. Glad no one was killed.

Third household managed to avoid any disasters so far. o:)

But the fourth household (two YA females) has had TWO oven fires while cooking. I was sooo disappointed with the second when it cost them their Thanksgiving turkey/Grand Meal. Couldn’t readily afford to replace the oven either. :#


So when do my Sims stop putting themselves in mortal danger? LOL
  • You're game is far more exciting in regards to disasters than mine! Even when my sims were low-skilled in cooking I've had very few fires, and was always able to handle them quickly and effectively. I did have one household when LD first came out the dryer started on fire because the maid didn't clean the lint tray. She started on fire and nearly all my sims ran into that tiny room to freak out about the fire. I was so afraid they'd all die, but luckily I was able to maneuver them and put the fire out; even saved the maid's life. In most of the rest of my households the most dramatic thing that happens is someone having an affair.
