Ok, what's the highest number of tombstones you've had simultaneously on a
lot without using any sort of cheat?

I'm up to 62 on one of my university dorm lots--I'd have 4 more if some of
them didn't somehow disappear on their own (?) after a while...

This all began when I intentionally left a meal on a stove to start a fire.
5 sims died at once in this one blaze (!), then their ghosts started to
scare other students to death. I'm at a point where I can guarantee at
least 2-3 deaths a night without even doing anything. The game's busy
generating new students all the time...

....it's hell trying to build up relationships though. )

I lost my entire Pleasant family except for Daniel when I left them
alone for a while and one of them tried to cook. They all died in the
ensuing fire. And they all had sufficient cooking points, or I wouldn't
have left them!

What idiots.

Hey, has anyone gotten the reaper to play chess?

That would be very appropriate, if you've seen your Bergman.

Personally, I prefer the Bill and Ted version.

You might be a king or a little street sweeper
But sooner or later, you'll dance with the Reaper.

Tombstones. So, indirectly, yes.

> I still haven't had anyone die.

For kicks, I'm trying to see how many tombstones I can get on a single lot
before it becomes utterly unplayable.

How many ghosts come out at the same time? The most I've ever seen was
three, even if there were a dozen headstones.

5-ish?

Just like there's an inherent limit to the number of visitors/party guests
you can have an a single lot, I'm starting to think the game imposes a limit
on the number of ghosts that can be active at any one time...although for a
while they were rather nasty, constantly scaring people to death...that
seems to slow down as days go by (or I might just be imagining this)...
