When townies attack
Since getting Get Together I've seen townies randomly fighting each other and my sim. I've seen it happen once, maybe twice, during a night of game play but last night my sim was attacked four times....

Oh, that's awesome! I knew about the infected sims in StrangerVille, but I've yet to see the SIBs. I built a rental house in StrangerVille and one of the families I originally created for TS2 and recreated for TS4 lives in another house I built there, but I don't actively play that family in my current game.
I've been playing in Windenburg exclusively for the past year or so, and my current story involves three main, multigenerational families who each "own" a district in Windenburg - one family has the entire island, one has Old Town, and one has the countryside. (I emptied the entire town, bulldozed all the premade houses, built a bunch of new houses, and populated Windenburg with these three families.)
My main household lives on the island in Windenburg. I check on my other families from time to time but don't actively play those households, so I had no idea the Windenburg "Brawlers" were a thing! That's hilarious! :D
Also amusing (to me) is the fact that I unknowingly put the "normal" family in Old Town where all the nutty stuff happens (and Gen 1 of the "normal" family lives in a house I built to replace the original Proprietor's Square lot, and that's where the random mailbox brawl happened in my game!) Ha! :D
I'd love to learn more about the different quirks/NPC roles in different neighborhoods/worlds. Is there info online about it? I Googled it but didn't have much luck finding anything. Any suggestions on where I could go to learn more? I kinda want more brawlers! :D
