Well guys, we did it (: (again)

[maggoty tacos]

You may remember awhile ago there was a moderator/site developer/whatever in here asking about Sims themed things we thought would be cool for a site.

I'm not exactly too sure, but I do believe it was Menace who suggested a plumbob for our avatars.

They just posted an announcement and this was at the bottom:
"Oh, and keep your eyes peeled for more upcoming Sims goodness, including appearances from a certain beloved green plumb-bob. "


I really like the Sims 3 profile art, too >_>  

[Menaceman]

I'm so happy!
If anyone missed the announcement or just wants to read it again then I think (hope) this is the link: http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/announcements/the-sims-3-watch-the-preview-pre-order-today/t.49942089/  

[Blueman1027]

Alright Menaceman! That is so cool. I will buy Gaia cash to get that plumbob if i have to!  

[Sanus Ex Machina]

I definitely like the idea of a plumbbob for my avvie.
I don't like seeing the Sims 3 advertised on here though. neutral

 

[Eienchi]

I want a plumbbob too! I wonder if it will just be green. Or maybe it could be white...yellow and red. To be like a real plumbbob.

@Sanus Ex Machina: What's so bad about it being advertised on Gaia?  

[Sanus Ex Machina]

Ah, I'm just not a fan of the Sims3, and an endorsement by Gaia is bound to bring in a least a few more buyers. Personally, I would love to see it crash and burn.

 

[maggoty tacos]

Uhhh... why? neutral  

[Sanus Ex Machina]

D:
I think that it's unnecessary. Why "upgrade" a perfectly good game when you can just keep adding on to it?
I don't want to turn this into a debate or anything though; this thread doesn't really seem like the place to discuss it.

 

[maggoty tacos]

Well, you're right. This isn't the place to discuss it. But there's a lot more to it than just an "upgrade".  

[Menaceman]

Looks like the event is active now guys!

I've not read anyting official but I just found a plumbob while surfing the site and was told to find 2 more to collect my 'next prize' which must mean it's going to work a bit like the Easter egg hunt.

I really hope I don't have to collect 500 for the last prize.

Keep your eyes peeled on the Gaia landing pages. (Home, My Gaia, Shop, Community, World, Games)  

[Iris Lise]

eee! I came here and saw ppl with Plumbobs and got excited. I've found one so far!

Promagedon... Sparmageton... Who cares I want my Plumbob!  

[Madame Royale]

I've got the second prize, which was 100 gold I think, and now I'm on my third prize. I wonder how many there are?  

[Menaceman]

You're on a third prize?! You sure? After I got my gold I was told there were no more prizes to collect.  

[Madame Royale]

Oh, yeah, I just did the 3rd one and it gave me another plumbob, so I gues it just starts over. ]:
