I tried, but my textures aren't loading and my sim is laggy. Maybe I should put that in the movie.

I have been reminded that I said 72 hours, when really, it was only 49... so deadline to entry is now noon monday.

April, I have some land that is non laggy that you could work on fro the day if you still want to enter.
