The Lonely Bachelor: Day 15- Another Move-Out & More Drama

The following morning, Sasha got her 1 on 1 time with the Bachelor.


Afterwards, she took advantage of the situation. And earns herself a "love" status.

Meanwhile, I discover that Mariel now has three lightning bolts!!

Uh-oh!


Mariel does it AGAIN. She engages Adam in a romantic interaction in front of another. In this case, Sasha.


She seems pleased with herself.


Adam chases Brittney around for most of the day trying to get her to come outside and play a game with him. Eventually, he entices her with a game of football.

((These pictures are in order, so I have no idea why this one appears in the light. It was the same day. WTF?))

After the game, when Brittney goes to leave Adam attempts to serenade her. (Oh, BTW, Adam is fairly obsessed with Brittney. She is the center of most of his wants/fears and he only has a want to be engaged with her.)

Well, Mariel sees it, and gets angry. And then Brittney starts beating Adam up (poking, slapping, you name it)...apparently she just represses her anger til it explodes...or she didn't like the song.

Now everyone is angry with everyone....except for Fitz. He gets along with everyone.



Official Score Tally for Move Out Day:
Fitz- 176 (BFF)
Sasha- 138 (BFF, Love, Angry)
Mariel- 130 (BFF, Love, Angry, LB Updated to 3)
Brittney- 14 (BFF)

GASP! GASP! We have to say goodbye to BRITTNEY! *sob* Totally unexpected. These past two days have been way to eventful. :p

The Lonely Bachelor: Day 14- Paint-Off

Paint-Off!

To earn 1 on 1 time with the Bachelor, contestants will need to earn the most money possible from their paintings during a 24-hour time period.

The results:
Brittney- $22
Fitzwilliam- $27
Mariel- $80
Sasha- $112

Sasha won!

During the paint-off, however, some drama began to happen! This is what we have been waiting for.
Brittney caught Mariel and Adam kissing. Afterward, Adam was still in love with Brittney, so this did not affect her score. And despite her anger, she still wants to be engaged to Adam.


After the contest, Fitz takes up Ballet.

Announcement: Coming Up Next!!

After the Bachelor Challenge is complete, I will be heading over the Moon Islands to check up on the Shipwrecked Crew. Don't know who they are? Checkout their two part story: Part One and Part Two. It's complete, so don't worry. It's the story about my Shipwrecked Challenge.

After that, I'll be doing another Lonely Bachelor Challenge. And I'm not spilling the beans on exactly who it is...but I'll give you a hint. It's someone you know!! ;)

The Lonely Bachelor: Day 13- Outing to FM

Time for another hot tub race...


Who will be first?


Brittany & Sasha arrive immediately....now it's just Mariel & Fitz competing for the final spot!


And Fitzwilliam makes it! His 1st time in the hot tub! Yes, he is wearing a wetsuit. He's a shy guy.

Leaving Mariel behind, the others go hang out at FM...dinner, dancing, etc...

As usual, the order Chef's Choice...so here you can see what everyone's fav. meals are.

Whoa! Adam has been making the moves on Brittany. Looks like Mariel has some competition!

Score Update:

Brittany- 198 (Love, BFF)
Mariel- 198 (Love, BFF)
Sasha- 177 (BF)
Fitzwilliam- 164 (F)

Brittney & Mariel are tied. Not only are Adam's scores for them tied, so are their scores for him (the supposed tie-breaking scores).

Adam now has 2 LB for Sasha! Sasha has been OBSESSED with the Piano, and has managed to put herself into the "high creativity" category...which is one of Adam's turn-ons!

The Lonely Bachelor: Day 12- The 3rd Move Out


Who is this random old man walking in his...underwear? swim trunks?...through the snow?!?


Ahh....my repairmen always do that.... (sarcasm)



After Mariel's 1 on 1 time, she lured Adam outside for a game of football.

Official Move Out Tally!
Mariel- 200 (Love, BFF)
Brittany- 197 (BFF)
Sasha- 154 (BF)
Fitzwilliam- 128 (F)
Libbey- 113 (BFF)

Adios Libbey! See you in one of our other upcoming contests!

Other than the move-out, it was a fairly quiet day with the contestants resting up for the next round!

The Lonely Bachelor: Day 11- Stomach of Steel

Day 11 brought the next contest: Stomach of Steel. Adam's ideal partner will have a strong stomach that is able to withstand eating exotic foods, the smell of fish when camping & catching their own food, trips on small planes and boats, etc...


For this challenge, the contestants took turns riding the Electrodance Sphere. As soon as a contestant...lost their lunch...they were eliminated from the game.

In round 1, the sphere was set to easy. All the contestants made it through round 1 unscathed.
In round 2, the sphere was set to medium. Libbey was the first person to puke, and the only person is round 2, so she was eliminated.
Meanwhile, Adam found a genie lamp on his door step. He made his three wishes: a long life, the ability to cheat death, and peace of mind.

For all the remaining rounds, the sphere was set to hard. Sasha couldn't take it and was eliminated in Round 3.

In round 4, Fitzwilliam had to be eliminated. So, it was just down to Mariel & Brittany- who had managed to not puke once.

In round 5, both of them were able to exit the sphere without puking.
In round 6, Brittany didn't make it.

Just to be sure Mariel had the strongest stomach, we put her on for an additional round (7) and STILL no pukeage! So, Mariel has earned 1 on 1 time with the Bachelor in the morning.

When not competing, the contestants were given free reign to do what they liked.

Score Update:
Mariel- 200 (BFF, Love)
Brittany- 198 (BFF)
Sasha- 156 (F)
Fitzwilliam- 130 (F)
Libbey- 114 (BFF)

The Lonely Bachelor: Day Ten- Art Museum


The night following Buddy's departure, I found Fitzwilliam sleeping outside, in the cold, on a reclining chair near the pool. Perhaps he is waiting for his love to return to him?


Day Ten was the next hot tub race. Brittney & Sasha arrived first. Mariel showed up shortly after, but refused to get in because she was too shocked by Sasha's nudity. Eventually, Libbey arrived and walked right by Mariel into the tub.


I swear this is all the guy does!


The three winners of the hot tub race take a cab for the group outing.


To the art museum.


The main attraction at the museum appeared to be the coffee. Everyone had to get it.



They briefly looked around the museum, then took a break to watch a film.



Then, went back for more coffee....because its quite addicting. Seriously. It was a mistake to take them here. Since I am letting them behave autonomously, it got pretty ridiculous.


Back at the house, Mariel and Fitzwilliam grow closer over their love of food. (They became best friends).



When they got back from the outing, Sasha engaged Adam in some casual conversation and congratulated him on earning his membership card to the Gaming lot.


Brittany got Adam to play football with her for awhile, while Mariel and Libbey waited to talk to him.



Mariel took a more direct approach, and flirted with the Bachelor (they are now in love).



Mariel is very....aggressive...more so than I expected from her, and definitely more than her fellow contestants. She's a family Sim on a mission to settle down. Look out!



Brittany tries a much more subtle (?) approach. Yes....that's Adam's bed. How did she get in here?



She must have gotten bored waiting for Adam to return, so she went downstairs to watch TV- where she fell asleep on the couch.



Fitzwilliam recruits Mariel to help him in his favorite daily activity.



Sasha plays some pool to pass the time.

Score Update: (no more immunities)
Mariel- 198 (BFF, Love)
Brittany- 187 (BF)
Sasha- 147 (F)
Fitzwilliam- 127 (F)
Libbey- 109 (BFF)
