Gosh, he's very demanding, is our Mingy.

Ah, lag. Yes, that is partly what put me off playing that town. It was somewhat lagtastic at times. Presumably you have tried the usual tricks of using NRaas Overwatch to tidy up the game, as well as resetting sims from time to time (in case they are stuck under that bloody mountain)?

If it is too laggy to travel into the town too often, you could always feature minor characters by having them visit the ranch, I suppose.

I would be in favour of more storylines for the girls, but obviously not at the expense of Jack. What is it that you find difficult about writing from the perspective of the opposite s3x? I am happy to act as advisor!

I think there should be more injuries. A few broken limbs from falls from horses, or some kicks to the head etc. Perhaps some kind of incident involving being impaled on a pitchfork. Or a fall from a stack of hay bales. Gruesome plots galore. You could even have a death in suspicious circumstances, although I can imagine you would be reluctant to kill off one of the main characters. How about a house fire? Or a barn fire? Jack running into the flames to save a trapped horse amid hay that is all aflame!

Or how about having something happen that starts to tempt Mike back to his old ways, then we can see whether he's really changed or whether he gives in to temptation. You are much more forgiving and optimistic than I am, Fraroc - I don't forgive very easily and tend not to give adults second chances as I'm not sure that people do really change, or if they do then it usually for their own benefit rather than a true change of heart. Or possibly that's just my experience of people! I would like to see Mike be tested more.

What am I meant to be doing? Oh yes, questions! I was wondering whether you were inspired by or influenced by any films/books/plays when you decided to write this story?
