The Lonely Bachelor: Day 4 & 5- The 1st Move-Out...and Recovery Day??

Once again, I am sorely lacking pictures. :( I promise to start taking more from now on. But you'll have to deal until I am caught up (Day 9?).

Day Four involved the 1 on 1 time with Adam for those who earned it from the Hobby challenge.

In preparation for the 1st move out, I had Adam check out all the contestants to discover their LBs.
Here are the LB results:
Mariel- 2 LB
Rachel- X LB (the anti-LB)
Brittany- 2 LB
Libbey - 2 LB
Sasha- 1 LB
Buddy & Fitzwilliam= No LBs (apparently our Bachelor has a preferred sex)

Adam is apparently LB-crazy. I didn't expect to see THIS many. :p

Score Tally (remember: Daily + Lifetime; than LB immunities).
Mariel- 91
Buddy- 85
Fitzwilliam- 78
Rachel- 66
Brittany- 62
Libbey- 56
Sasha- 42

So, Sasha is the lowest. But wait! Sasha, Libbey and Brittany ALL have immunities this round. So.......the contestant moving out is.....RACHEL



Bye Rachel!!! I'm sad to see her go. She played quite well. But the dice (literally) did not roll in her favor.

I'm a bit disappointed that Mariel is doing SO well. I feel like the competition is rigged! I know its not, but I feel like it could be construed as such. In case you don't remember, Mariel is my only submission into this competition.

I made 3 Sims to add to my pool of contestants. I chose to add 1 to this game. All three of them are very different. Mariel is a combination of dice rolls and my imagination. I hit the generator button til I found a pretty Sim. Then I used my imagination to figure out who she was, and things I couldn't think of I rolled. It was not my intent to make her so well matched with this Bachelor. He was rolled up much later.

Oh well...it's in their hands now. :)

Day Five brought about some changes. After Hobby Discovery Day, and the series of 1 on 1 meetings....everyone was crashing! I had let them manage themselves completely up until this point. But I couldn't get them to do anything on Day 5, so we had a change of tactics.

First, I deemed the day a "Recovery Day". And the Sims spent all day getting their needs back up. Those in the green were able to socialize unsupervised, as normal.

Now, my policy is to keep an eye on each of them, and intervene when their needs begin to drop. Just so it doesn't become ridiculous. However, it'll still be hands off for all interactions involving the bachelor, anytime they are in the green, and anything related to their wants. They still have to manage their own aspiration meter (cause some craziness is needed).

At the end of recovery day, I took an update on the scores:

Mariel- 87
Buddy- 86
Fitzwilliam- 74
Brittany- 70
Libbey- 63
Sasha- 31
