Christmas is coming, so how about a santa's workshop? Or a winter wonderland.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, keep them coming!!

Additionally, if you have some other suggestions as to how the rounds are held (for example: blind entries, where each entry is PM'd to me and I would post all of them so you wouldn't know whose is whose, or maybe having a lightning round, or a multi-stage round, etc.) please post them here!

Since it's officially Spring, maybe something Spring break oriented? Place: Vacation spot? Sim: Tourist?

It's not entirely a "build" but what if for one of the challenges, you had to redecorate the Goth's home? Repaint, refurnish, etc. I chose the Goth's since they have a house in every game from TS1-TS4 :)

I also really like the idea of a blind entry contest so that people don't just vote for their friends, I feel like sometimes the votes are unfair.

Theres a topic under Fun Stuff>Competitions called Fix That Ugly! Link: http://boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?f=124&t=124 that addressed what you're suggesting. If someone wants to start that up again, I'd love to participate.

I like the idea of building businesses like the flowershop in the last one (I almost had mine done too grrr). Maybe like a bar, a casino or a teen club could be fun!

Hi :)

I haven't read the whole topic like I should- How about a Pet Park or Pet Store... or a Mall or a Beauty Parlor/Barber Shop. :)

This suggestion is a two-parter: First part is to recreate your home, apartment or dorm room as it is. Second part is to remodel your lot anyway you want. Ever thought about a balcony to your bedroom? Make it happen! Want a bigger tv or bed? Go for it!

Fairytales (characters or places or anything it would be so magical)

Recreate a Townie in another game (like Bob Newbie, or Mortimer Goth someone we all know or could easily find out about)

Just thought of one, but not sure if it is actually feasible or if it has been done in the past.

It would be neat to do a home makeover round where you need to take a premade house or lot and make it over. Not just by coloring and decorating but also construction wise. You would need a before and after. I was just thinking about it goofing around in TS2.

In BTNM thus season, the final round was a legacy/challenge round. Would something like that be feasible? Build a house for a legacy or challenge.

Yeah like an asylum challenge - because those houses are specific as to what you can have in them.
They basically have to be very run down.

How about a no-walls/outdoor 'house', for a challenge? Like, you could use hedges and canopies and whatever to make 'walls' instead.

I'm not entirely sure how well it'll work across various versions of the sims, but I used to build 'hedge houses' in the sims 1:
(hopefully this works, photobucket is being really slow for me lately??)

I think it's a pretty cool idea, Sam. 8-) I'll decide something for the next round this weekend.
