Reblog if you’re 30 or older

This is an experiment to see if there really are as few of us as people think.You can also use this to freak out your followers who think you’re 25 or something. Yay!

Happy Birthday, Plumb Bob Keep!

A big Happy Birthday to Plumb Bob Keep! 13 years strong, The Last Bastion continues to have a close-knit community, lively discourse, and quality downloads. So let's celebrate with gifts!

From now until the end of April, we encourage folks to post their creations as presents to their fellow Keepers. Of course, it's not necessary, and there is space in this thread for well-wishers of all sorts, too.

If you do choose to add a download to the celebration, post a teaser pic and maybe some text in this thread, and link it to the regular download location, please. Thanks!

Let's hear it for the Keep! Huzzah!

And Now for Something Completely Different…

After coming back into contact with Stas, Sunni's widower, the plans for the Keep have changed. Disregard most of what was posted above.

We WILL be remaining open for the foreseeable future, accepting both new members and new content. The site will remain a historical- and fantasy-focused Sims 2 forum.

Going forward, the Keep will be managed by a "Regency Council" instead of just one Regent. This will consist of PBK moderators CelestialSpider, Davina Ojeda, and rugrat0ne, as well as Discord moderators Fire_flower and Sonikku3.

Fractured Moonlight will be stepping back into something of a "silent partner" role so she can focus on creating. We thank her for her years of service running the Keep all by herself, especially out of the blue. We know it was not easy.

We are already establishing better lines of communication with Stas in hopes of avoiding the annual early March panic, and reminders have been set for February fundraising.

There will be annual fundraisers on GoFundMe or similar sites to offset the cost, and to provide more transparency than we've been able to provide in the past.

Meanwhile, archiving efforts will continue until the site is fully backed up, as a failsafe. We will also periodically archive new content in the future.

Many, many thanks to those who pitched in on the archiving project, to those who donated, in this year and previous ones, and to everyone who supported and continues to support Plumb Bob Keep.

Regarding the Future of the Keep

Due to many factors, not just financial, and after careful consideration, it has been decided that Plumb Bob Keep will close its doors on March 1, 2024.

This extra year has been given to us so we can properly archive the site and ensure that the content is still accessible. We will be launching a kickstarter or similar donation drive to repay Stas, Sunni's widower, for this bonus year.

The staff of PBK would like to thank the community as a whole for their amazing creations over the years, the way you all pulled together to help archive the site, and the comraderie and friendship that we have shared as historical simmers.

Looking forward, there are ideas in the works for a new, "spinoff" site where we can continue to host downloads, and the Discord will go on as well, possibly under a new name. We hope many, if not all of you, will make this transition with us.

Thank you again for 12 wonderful years of simming, and for proving that there was definitely enough interest for a forum dedicated to medieval and other historical content!

Since the Keep is down are you planning on backing up your creations anywhere?

Yes, I am still active and have all my creations saved.

Archiving the Keep

As some of you may have noticed, the Plumb Bob Keep site has been down for several days. At this time, we do not know anything about the future of the site; we have no contact with Sunni's family, who pay for it. Since the future of the site is uncertain, we are calling for all hands on deck to help us try to archive as much of the downloads as possible: images, text, links and actual download zips. We will primarily be using the Wayback Machine, but as Google searching was only turned on in the last year, many things will not be accessible. Fire_flower has created a spreadsheet to help organize the effort and allow us to see where the gaps are. This will be step one of the process, before we dive into our personal collections.

If you would like to help out, please add your name to the spreadsheet linked below. Large sections might need 2 or more people to team up. Please ask if you have questions over at the PBK Discord or fireflowersims or fracturedmoonlight via tumblr. Thank you so much for your time and help! PBK Archive Spreadsheet

Why is the Plumbob Keep closed for absolutely no good reason, and also has the message "Go away or we shall taunt you a second time" when you go to the register button?" Seem like a bunch of jerks.

I’m not sure when this message was sent, Tumblr is crap at giving me notifications.

I am not a Mod at PBK, so I am unsure why registration would be closed. The message is obviously a reference to Monty Python & The Holy Grail. If you are continuing to have problems creating a PBK account try contacting @fracturedmoonlight

Constellation Concentration - TSM Peasant Painting TV Recolors

The wonderful @pituliya shared some beautiful woodcuts in the PBK Discord this morning, and I was inspired to create what could be considered the sequel to my Seeing Stars recolors; 12 Zodiac recolors for Nix's Deceptively Modest Painting TV!

The mesh is included. Don't forget to grab Pooklet'd Frames at Nix's Original Post. Enjoy!

Still slowly working on my high-fantasy pre-christian era game.

Looking for new blogs to follow! Doesn’t matter if you play 2, 3 or 4, bc I love them all. (Though I’ll love you even more if you’re maxis match ❤️)

[clstldrmr83]

Medieval High-Fantasy here!

I probably follow most of you already! I just want more historical themed Simblrs to follow because I love looking at the pictures and we’re such a niche little group :D

Anything pre 1980s is good!

I've been trying to cross post my creations and find inspiration for new ones.

Looking for Active Sims 2 blogs! (August 2020) please reblog this if you’re still active in the ts2 community.

Log Tossers - DR BV Lumberjack

These were part of my Secret Santa Gift 2014 to VampireKisses6661 at the PBK. I did a re-texture of Morganna's "Lumberjack No More" using isbrealiomcaife "Weapons Sold Separately". Grey, Blue, Green and Red respectively. These files will conflict with some of Sunni's Bon Voyage NPC replacements, specifically the mountain food station cooks. If you use her NPC DRs, please delete the following files from her collection: NPC-Medieval_FoodStandChefMTN_F NPC-Medieval_FoodStandChefMTN_M.

Default Replacements, there can only be ONE.
