Probably not BUT NO GUARANTEESI swear Gusto if I have to upgrade that toilet again
I'm seriously afraid to load the game back up and see how much I missed. I don't think it was a lot since I usually save after editing the neighbourhood and added few bars last night.[DOUBLEPOST=1353033192][/DOUBLEPOST]Okay, I just loaded up the game. The game was saved as recently as my last screenshot update, so the only gameplay I've got to replay is about a day in-game, and won't repeat any of the content I've uploaded here.
Well it WAS underwater.
Alright, after Groundhog Day-ing that day three times, I was able to break the loop. Something about performing at one of the venues causes a crash, and sending Nick to a scheduled show would always cause it. I had him skip that show and we made it through another day just fine. Expect a large-ish update soon.
IF ONLY FUCKING IMGUR WOULD WORK.
Some cool things happened during my three replays of the same day. Slightly different variations on the things that would always happen. For example, within 20 seconds of loading, something in the house would break. It would either be the computer Holly was using, the computer upstairs, or the bathtub that Kags was using. It's like something as destined to break, and it only mattered what was in use.
Also, I just spent some Aspiration Points on some Lifetime Rewards for everyone. One pricey reward that I gave Gusto enabled him to make friends easier and keep them longer, since his Lifetime Goal is to have 20 friends. On my second version of that day, one that ended up crashing, Gusto got an opportunity to give a speech at the school in front of all the students. Since the result was to gain a bit of relationship points with all of them, combined with Gusto's Charisma and the Lifetime Reward, he ended up making TWENTY THREE FRIENDS DURING THAT PRESENTATION ALONE, fulfilling his life's ambition.
It didn't work out that way in the prime playthrough, but whose to say it won't happen tomorrow? Kind of interesting how differently three different version of the same day can go.
REAL update coming as soon as Imgur stars working again...

Holly has basically become nocturnal, and is seen here playing computer games on Droll's laptop until the crack of dawn. Because of this, she's become pretty isolated from her housemates.
Her first wish is to become close with her sister Kags again, and vice versa. Here's their heartfelt reunion.
Kags is famished in the morning, and tries cooking for herself. She's exasperated at her burnt waffles.
CK shows that he's adept at fixing electronics too, not just plumbing.
Kags gets promoted to Background Lyricist that night, having chosen the Rockstar path over the Symphony musical path. Here's her rockin' new "uniform".
She also steals several more theatre posters.
Nick works out in Bowie's bedroom, while Bowie demonstrates his Heavy Sleeper trait.
That's not enough for him though, so he also goes for a jog.
CK fixes electronics after stepping out of the pool with total disregard for his own safety.
Feeling pretty brazen, he flirts with Holly by demonstrating his super muscles.
The three most Charismatic dudes spend an evening chatting on the roof, and are all pretty good friends by bedtime.

OMGOODNESS, yay! I'm so happy to be close to my sister again!
CK, you are just so awesome. I like that you fix things.
I'm curious to see how far I get with the 'Rockstar' path.....

I'm hoping you get to the part where you do copious amounts of heroin and alienate your band.
Nah it's cool. I'm sure sim-you is going to become a jukebox hero with stars in her eyes. And heroin in her veins.
Yay! I'm okay with the heroin as long as I don't alienate anyone.
Oh man. This out of context.
Well seeing as a lot of your goals are geared towards mastering Guitar, and you rarely ever miss work, I'd say you'll get to the top of the career track eventually.
Kags, you seriously need to put that as your signature. 
I thought everyone was a Nick girl in real life? Even the guy?
Awesome!
...wait, hang on.
...wait, hang on.
I thought it seemed...self-serving to have that as my own signature. But, I do find it funny enough to be worthy of a sig! Maybe I shall....Kags, you seriously need to put that as your signature.
Seriously, the Jessica Rabbit sketch wasn't enough for you??
Jay heads over to Heather's place for some romance, uninvited. She's in a mood though, and has no interest in what he's selling.
Nick tries on his new Acrobat uniform, which is somewhere between S+M dom and Dothraki horselord. Seems to entertain the audience though - he gives his best an most lucrative performance yet.
Kags kleptomana is put to use at the homestead, and when CK finishes nude hottubbing, he finds his clothes missing. I guess that's what happens when you spend NINE GODDAMNED HOURS IN THERE. Seriously. Most of his day off.
While CK's soaking alone, Jay convinces Heather to join him and the others at the Grind. It's another slow night there, but at least al lthe lights and speakers are working now.
Not about to let Kags win, CK decides to just not worry about putting clothes on again, ever.
Kags hangs up a fitness form sign she stole from the gym in the appropriate place, while Droll breaks into full sprint on the treadmill. She's at the point in her sports career where she's got to play games twice a week, and maintain a good game record, and she's not gonna let her team down.
And fortunately, Kags and CK bury the hatchet later that day with some mutually-assured nudity.

I am so sorry CK, forgive me!
And hey, I actually wore the proper attire to the club! I'm so proud of my sim.

CK and Nick clearly exercise for different reasons, but they can discuss them nonetheless.
Nick is promoted once again, and gains the ability to do some basic tricks wit the ring of fire.
He also starts getting quite friendly with Holly the magician, who I've renamed to Eliza to cut down on confusion.
Meanwhile the REAL Holly gets asked out on a date by by Mitch...
... who CLEARLY has some problems, seeing as he's married and rebuffs Holly's flirts. Iiiiinteresting.
Gusto is the only person that night who attends Bowie's show, which is a shame, because it ended up being one of his better performances.
Nick tries to help Kags succeed in some of her fitness goals, but alas, she's still new to the concept of treadmills.
The next day tey're both pretty wiped, so they just kick it with some TV.
Kags plays video games tat night while Gusto and Droll enjoy the night sky.
And Nick finally makes his move on Eliza after his show.

I just can't handle the Dothraki S&Mlord outfit. I hope SimNick wears it everywhere.
I feel like such a bad student, heh, sorry Nick!
I'm glad peoples' performances are getting better, way to go Nick and Bowie!

He kinda does, he wears it all day on any day that he's got a performance. And usually his performances start at like 8 pm.
