Who is this guy? He is unplayable and never before mentioned. Unneeded. Or is this Fanon? - JEA13 ^[iTalk] 19:53, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

KazeNoYouko - Atrum Dies, Atrum Noctis TALK - Keeping up with the Goths He's a repairman, one of Olive Specter's supposed murder victims. Most people overlook him, which is probably why you haven't heard of him.

JEA13 TALK - Is it necessary to include him here?

So I noticed something...

According to Seth's Remaining Days bar in SimPE, he has 101 days left before dying of old age (which is impossible through normal gameplay). But I checked out his Age duration bar and discovered something -- he was actually supposed to have 19 days left, not 101! I tried adding this information into the article, but couldn't find a way to insert it without it sounding awkward. If someone who is good at editing pages could add this info, that would be great. Thank you! Mariaw (talk) 04:25, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

Could you explain how did you get such information? AFAIK the age duration bar for elder Sims never shows the remaining days left (only SimPE does). I tried resurrecting him (briefly) with the Tombstone of L & D and his age bar showed that he's 0 day(s) old instead (which makes more sense why he's 101 days left before dying). --Frostwalker ^{Talk - Read} 05:58, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

I got the information from SimPE. I opened the neighbourhood file from the unmodified game files, and checked Seth's Sim Description. It was that where I discovered his Age duration bar showed he had only 19 days as an elder as opposed to 101, which was shown in his Remaining Days bar. Mariaw (talk) 06:14, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

Did exactly the same but mine says he's 101 days remaining (actually my SimPE showed 100 days remaining instead). Are you sure by "unmodified game file" is actually the one that came from the actual game directory (not from "My Documents")? --Frostwalker ^{Talk - Read} 06:27, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

Perhaps I should further clarify; Sims have two separate age bars; one that shows how many days they have left before aging up which is displayed on the main Sim Description tab, and one that shows how many days they have total in the current life stage which is displayed on the "Other" tab. Seth's age bar that shows how many days he has left indicates he has 101 days left, but his age bar that shows how many days he has total as an elder indicates he actually only has 19. And yes, it was from the game directory. I would have easily noticed if it was the "Documents" directory. Mariaw (talk) 06:48, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

Apologize. I don't use SimPE very often and I actually had trouble understanding you (coupled with the fact that you didn't mention the "Other" tab before). In that case, I had the same result as yours. I'm not sure how to make use of this information but I also noticed that his "Days in prev. Age" is 0 which matches the fact that he's 0 days old when (briefly) resurrected, hmmm... --Frostwalker ^{Talk - Read} 07:17, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

I am terribly sorry for the confusion. I did not notice until after I wrote those paragraphs that I left out certain important details; even I could have misinterperted what I was trying to say because of that. Mariaw (talk) 07:22, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

I really am very sorry for not making myself very clear. Also, just wondering, were you demanding an apology? If so, I would have apologised anyway. I wrote that specific part in bold to make it more obvious what I was trying to say. Sorry if it seemed like I was being rude, I do not try to be so. Mariaw (talk) 08:10, April 19, 2018 (UTC)

No, I didn't demand an apology. In fact I was apologizing to you. If I did demand it, I'd use an exclamation mark instead of a period :) --Frostwalker ^{Talk - Read} 08:19, April 19, 2018 (UTC)
