05.03.11 - Reel Big Fish at University of Southampton Student Union
My memories of this gig are as much about the day as the show itself. Ed and I had long lost touch with our friend from school Darren, known to most as Smiler. We’d seen him a year earlier when we played with Canada Water in Cardiff, where Darren was at University and I guess that was the beginning of us becoming back in contact with him.
Darren’s degree was in Sound Production, as such he had a lot of the gear. We asked him if he would record Ed and I doing a tongue in cheek audio commentary for our Trigger Happy and Jackass lite home videos from back in 2003 (many of which Darren actually filmed).
Before Darren arrived, we took a trip into Poole to have a root through the second hand stock at Red Records, just as we used to years earlier. Someone had just dropped off a collection of 7” singles that spanned the past decade and we fought, not as aggressively as we might have done when we were younger, for the ones we wanted.
The whole day felt like a page out of our childhood, making Reel Big Fish the perfect band for the three of us to go and see in the evening. It was actually Darren who introduced us to the band, he had a copy of Cheer Up!, which he allowed us to both make a CD-R copy of. Ed got very good back in those days at recreating the band logos and artwork using the pens that would work on the top side of the disc.
As much as you might try to perfectly recreate a point in time, it’s unlikely all the pieces will ever be exact. This was the first time seeing Reel Big Fish following the departure of Scott Klopfenstein. I’ve never quite gotten over this. Whenever I listen to RBF I always (attempt) to sing Scott’s harmonies and despite Matt Appleton doing the best possible job anyone could to fill those shoes, it was a bit jarring to see the band without Scott.
The support was a band who’ve had a great decade or so since, The Skints. I’d heard of them at this point, but not actually heard them, so this was my first introduction. Darren was already a fan and I trusted his judgement. I enjoyed their set and ended up buying a 7” vinyl from the merch table.

Day 2 - Challenge Day
Rise and shine, kids! We have arrived at our first destination of our journey, where we will be doing our very first challenge! Who's ready?
Today, our destination is Willow Creek! A quaint town with vintage architecture, gorgeous pink trees, and marsh galore! All of you will be enjoying the scenery with our first challenge. It's cloudy today, hence the slight gloom, but it's nevertheless the perfect day to get some fresh air after a full day of being cramped on the plane!
Our challenge today is pretty simple: just race through this maze we've constructed at Magnolia Blossom Park until you reach the back building. No winners or losers; instead, the order in which contestants finish the maze will determine which team they will be on! 1st to 6th place will be on Team 1, 7th to 12th place will be on Team 2, and 13th to 18th place will be on Team 3!
Since we're only just determining teams with this challenge, there will be no eliminations either! We're saving our first out for the 2nd challenge this season 😉
Are you all ready to see what team you'll end up on? I sure am. As you can see, there's a mix of emotions here. Estrello is from WIllow Creek, so he's feeling a little bored, Josue is thrilled, and Carson is regretting his decision to skip breakfast...
On your mark... get set... GO! Our contestants are off, exploring the maze and Magnolia Blossom Park!
As the hedge rows narrow off the pavement, the group eventually becomes one single file line, with Tomiko leading at the front!
Tomiko maintains her lead and becomes the first contestant to arrive at the back building, solidifying her spot in Team 1! Touma, Minato, Nite, and Raylan follow closely behind and officially become Tomiko's teammates.
After some time, the final contestant arrived at the back building. Here are the final placements of the maze race, and therefore, our teams!
Team 1:
1. Tomiko 2. Touma 3. Minato 4. Nite 5. Raylan 6. Ziggy
Team 2:
7. Maeve 8. Brendan 9. Marilyn 10. Espresso 11. Josue 12. Carson
Team 3:
13. Lucian 14. Elio 15. Matteo 16. Avery 17. Estrello 18. Alanna
Now that our teams have formed, it's time for them to deliberate on their team names! That's right, this season, contestants will be naming their teams! No more silly two-part names from me!
So, allow me to tell you what our 3 teams have decided to call themselves:
TEAM ODYSSEY
(Minato, Nite, Raylan, Tomiko, Touma, and Ziggy)
The majority of this team are outdoorsy and athletic, so they've decided to call themselves "Team Odyssey" to highlight the journey they're taking around the sims world!
TEAM SUCCESS
(Brendan, Carson, Espresso, Josue, Maeve, and Marilyn)
Most of this team's members are keen on socializing and want to win the challenges, so they've decided to call themselves "Team Success."
TEAM INTEGRITY
(Alanna, Avery, Elio, Estrello, Lucian, and Matteo)
This team primarily consists of members who are good-natured with strong moral compasses, so they've decided to call themselves "Team Integrity" to highlight their goodwill!
Back at the plane, everyone took the rest of the day to get to know their teammates, which will continue tomorrow when we will fly to our next destination and have another socialization day! After everyone fell asleep, I found Matteo still wide-awake feeling gloomy and playing SimScuffle. I hung out with him until he got tired of me and went off to bed 😋
Today's Confessional: Avery Bennett
"I struggled to talk to people yesterday; I wasn't really sure who to talk to first and some of the others kinda paired off into their own conversations, but now that we're all in teams I feel more confident to get to know the people in my team. Trying to talk to five others is a lot more manageable than seventeen others..."

ZIGGY SKINT for @jonquilyst's Total Drama Sims!
Yup, this is my solution to creating sims for other people's gameplay: grab some future version of my legacy spawn.
Ziggy is from my ODD MONEY save. In that he's a child and the oldest of three. He may be the heir, he may not - the Watcher hasn't yet made a decision. Either way, this is sure to be an adventure.
NAME: Ziggy Skint AGE: Teen (15ish) HOME WORLD: Brindleton Bay TRAITS: Socially Awkward, Loyal (bonuses: Top Notch Infant & Toddler, High Self Esteem) ASPIRATION: Goal-Oriented ORIENTATION: Uncertain so let's say bi/pan for now. Fine with relationships, just stick within the 14-16 age range. LIKES: Compliments, Small Talk, Discussing Hobbies, Fitness, Deep Thoughts, Baking, Piano, Metal Music, Cooking, Blue, Classic Music, Discussing Interests DISLIKES: Dancing, Pranks, Video Gaming, Malicious Interactions, Potty Humour, Mischief SKILLS: Various but nothing above a Level 4
Thanks to his outdoor loving parents and a household full of pets (and younger siblings), Ziggy has grown up relatively offline for a contemporary teen. He loves animals, being outdoors and baking, but is more at home around sims outside of his age group.
Shy but with a solid sense of right and wrong, it will be interesting to see how Ziggy fits in with such a large group of his peers. He's the kid at a party who is more likely to make friends with the dog than anyone else, but won't hesitate to call out bullying and other bad behaviour if he sees it.
MISC: While he definitely isn't a stylish sim, Ziggy has a love of colour that's reflected in his outfits. If he looks vaguely familiar, it's because his dad is @ravingsockmonkey's Stu Howell, identical twin of Lou Howell from the Werewolves pack (it's a long story).
(I'll send a SFS link your way soon @jonquilyst! He has some Maxi's Match clothing cc and default feet that I can't figure out how to get rid of from his file, but otherwise is fairly vanilla.)

Eddie: Look. I may not be a saint, but it's not like I’ve killed anybody. I’m not an arsonist. I’ve never found a wallet outside of an IHOP and thought about returning it but saw the owner lived out of state so just took the cash and dropped the wallet back on the ground.
Steve: Okay, that's really specific, and that makes me think that you definitely did do that.

Day 1 - Socialization Day (Part 1)
It's time to begin our journey around the Sims world! Our 18 contestants are now on board the plane and we are now en route to our first destination! (No, we will not disclose where we're going; not even the contestants know where they're going!)
For the first two socialization days, first class will be open to everyone so contestants can experience its luxuries and be incentivized to win! Alanna was quick to go check it out; she immediately made herself comfortable on the PC and played MySims for a while!
But of course, if you've watched Total Drama Sims before, you'll know that our very first socialization day is dedicated to everyone meeting everybody! So Espresso, knowing what to do, decided to introduce herself to Maeve! However, she was only met with a glare...
Thankfully, Espresso tried Estrello afterwards and was met with a warm smile and a hello. Success!
This new bunch of teenagers was eager to start socializing! Our beret club Carson and Marilyn totally hit it off, while Ziggy, Raylan, and Lucian had.... somewhat of a conversation. Ziggy and Raylan were friendly with each other, but Lucian was just kinda there.
Josue and Nite also hit it off quite nicely and had a long chat about nature, while Matteo and Elio listened on.
Over in first class, Minato introduced himself to Touma, and they immediately became a pair. Instant buddies!
Meanwhile, Tomiko is feeling a little... overwhelmed. She was excited to travel, but the tight quarters with all these unfamiliar people are making her feel stressed, so she struggled to reach out and interact with others.
Matteo has been feeling relatively neutral about TDS so far, until someone decided to turn on METAL music. Boy, did it turn his opinion of TDS as "just mid" to "totally awesome" in a matter of seconds! Just look at that smile!
And in front of Matteo, we find Marilyn and Brendan totally trying to kick each other's butts in Party Frenzy! Practice for the upcoming challenges? Maybe... Just maybe.
Stay tuned for part 2!

"When they turned me into a spellcaster, I didn't know they'd also make my entire right arm bigger..."
Assuming that you still have space, @adelarsims, something wicked bro-ish this way comes?
