Plumbobs and the Past

Sul sul, hello, and labas! I'm a hobby historian, long-time sims player, and rabid reader who mostly plays a very historically inspired Ultimate Decades Challenge with a family that have gone out of their way to cause their own chaos. Sometimes, I also do some short let's plays or challenges on the side.

I've added historical elements to Morbid Gamer's foundation for the challenge rules. Feel free to use my adapted rules for yourself (linked below)!


Plumbobs and the Past

Hey all! I'm really sorry but today's video won't be making it out. After thinking I'd sorted the audio issues, this week it went even worse than before and is completely unsalvageable. At this point, I'm afraid I need to spend some time figuring out and fixing the root causes, which likely means I'll be unable to post a video next week either šŸ˜” I'm sorry to let you all down again.

In the meantime, enjoy this super sweet picture of Knud meeting his daughter for the first time 🄹

Hello all! I'm so sorry to let you all down, but I'm afraid I wasn't able to get a video out for this week. As you may know, I moved last week and it hasn't been the smoothest move in the world. Tomorrow I should have wifi and be able to get back to a normal schedule.

In the meantime, there's a video of the next 2 dates that Joan Woodhamse went on along with the current draft of *possible* consequences for an out-of-wedlock woohoo should it result in a... result that should be scheduled to come out today on Patreon (link here www.patreon.com/cw/PlumbobsandthePast). I'll check and make sure it went ahead properly when I can get to a wifi spot again.

My apologies again, and let me know your thoughts about the draft of consequences!

Greetings, friends! I’ve gathered all my challenge documents into one cozy little Patreon hub so everything lives in one place safe from the plague of scattered files. If there are other wheels, rolls, or gameplay bits you’d love to see added, just let me know!

Hello everyone! I'm sorry to announce that the next episode won't be out today šŸ˜” I don't want to bore you with the details but my upstairs neighbor's power tools, my building's fire alarm malfunctions, and some technical difficulties culminated in the perfect storm to get in the way of recording.

I'm sorry that I wasn't able to make it work this week, but will be back next week on schedule!

Group 1: Ultimately a higher percent voted that someone should come back, but it was such a close call that I think we can only bring back 1 sim.



Shortlisted sims come from our original bloodline and didn't get a chance to impact the world or are the last of their line, who also fell to the plague. They've been split into 2 groups since the max poll size is 4, so Tuesday the 17th of June look out for the finalists!

Well, not to spoil anything, but as you may know something bad has made its return and taken some loved ones away from us. Should we vote to bring anyone back or let things be what the dice say? šŸ¤”

Hello! After receiving a few requests to share the holidays and traditions I play with, I've readied a document! Feel free to implement them, adapt them, and play with them if you like!

Well, I couldn't stop myself and ended up going on another date with one of the romantic prospects introduced by Esmond, then couldn't keep it to myself and now have another episode coming out today. Let me know who you think our heir should choose and why! Time is ticking as his young adult birthday comes in 1359 šŸ˜…
