Hello again, everyone. You may already be aware of this but for those who don't I've written a Sim 66 spin-off story called "Cornelius". It's set in the same world (ie, same game) as Sim 66 but deals with a smaller cast of characters and is intended to be a self-contained story. Cornelius is a brilliant new wave scientist, test pilot, concert pianist, gourmet chef, racing car driver and grandmaster chess champion who works for the Department of Paranormal Research and is investigating the Strangerville mystery. He and his companions, David and Peggy, delve deep into finding out what happened there. I'll leave links to each chapter here: CORNELIUS, CHAPTER 1: Welcome to Strangerville CORNELIUS, CHAPTER 2: One Of Our Fridges Is Missing CORNELIUS, CHAPTER 3: The DPR CORNELIUS, CHAPTER 4: The Secret Base CORNELIUS, CHAPTER 5: All For The Want Of A Keycard

As I said many times already, I'm really horrible at catching up with very long stories and binge-reading many chapters at once, which is why I never managed to start reading Sim 66 However, this is a new just started spin-off, and I love the Strangerville side-quest, so why shouldn't I start this story instead, I wonder? I managed to read the first 5 chapters, and... A character like Cornelius, and in particular his composure, is so "out of place" in Strangerville weirdness to be adorable XD The idea of setting the mystery in the 60s is also a novelty among the many SimLit Strangerville's interpretations! Who knows what secret experiments they could be doing back then...
Having played the whole quest several time I guess I more or less know already some of the points that will be touched later, but I'm also very curious to see how Cornelius, David and Peggy will explain them. In particular, the accident that started everything is left quite mysterious in the game, so I'm particularly curious to see your idea about that point!

It's a bit late in coming but here is chapter six of Cornelius. We take a step away from Strangerville to see a bit of David's work at Britechester University...where a familiar face crops up. Cornelius Chapter 6: I'm Not At Liberty

Time is running out for Cornelius and his team. They have to find a way through that door and gather all the information they need at the secret laboratory before the army seals the place off. CHAPTER 8: Triple Effort

I'm reading through the first installment right now. So far, it reminds me of Scooby Doo, Danger Man, and Get Smart. Great job!
EDIT: Now I'm caught up (through Chapter 8). I'm very excited to see what happens next.
