Thanks @SalixCat ! You are always so helpful and useful!
I like female hairstyles but I hate big hair clips. No way I would wear them so no way my female sims are going to wear them.
Feel relieved that the only thing I might like - hairstyle - is actually not nice.
I am playing the rounds only with cubes and playing safe. No cash, no coins, no cupcakes. I get what I get.
In the meantime I am saving a lot of simoleons, that are the thing I was spending for the previous STS. I am super happy and excited to have again so many simoleons. So weird to be excited because I AM NOT running for the final prize. We should be happy and excited to play, not to NOT play. But that's our situation.
But Firemonkeys don't get it.
Honestly the only grand prize for which it was worth it to play was the chimney. The chimney is amazing.
The STS with the double braid hairstyle was cool too.
Worst STS: washing machine 1st edition and halloween (sorry, I don't like Halloween). I regret spending resources (simoleons, I don't spend simcash) in these and and in a couple other STSs. Will not do it in future.
