Re: 12th Birthday Party - BABY BOOM CHALLENGE

Post by Livvielove »

I have a lot of updates I need to catch up on, but it had been a while since I updated so here we go: 20 - The Slow Period
I hope to catch up with everyone's over the next day or so.

I also have a minor suggestion for the rules @Thai - would it be possible to move the naming themes OUT of the required rules and into the additional rules? Right now it seems a little confusing having the "Kids must be named HTTPSBOOLPROPNET" etc theme as part of the actual RULESET and then have a challenge of "Name all the kids starting with B" if that makes sense?

This looks like a fun challenge! Commenting to "save" the post so that I can easily come back to look at the rules. :)

I agree with cynicalbadger, I'm going to keep playing as I have been, though may change a couple of things (hello, LTW points) to complete some mini challenges and earn more points.

New update just now, Once!

Since I only had 4 kiddos, and my file seemed a bit glitchy, I am going to start over.

I get that, maybe if I clarify that HTTPSBOOLPROPNETINDEXPHP is the standard and the B name mini challenge is an alternative for extra points? Would that make sense to you or would it just be better to remove the compulsory name scheme entirely?

I like the idea of a compulsory naming theme, could we perhaps just have some options? As in:
a) HTTPSBOOLPROPNETINDEXPHP
b) BOOLPROP x 3
c) All B's (20 extra points)

You may alternatively choose to play the "NOT THE BS!" mini-challenge, in which case you would get +20 points :)
This is my edit to the rules, hopefully it works.

I have a question for this. Two actually.

1. Could I decide for my sim couple not to work? Or any sims in the household for that matter? Just have them live off what they could find/produce, and sell straight from sim inventory. Have that be my sole in come.
2. Could I do this and not collect points? I've not done a challenge for points yet, but I don't think I'd like it, be counting and keeping notes of point gains and penalties would kill some of the fun for me.

Do what you love and the happiness follows.
The reasons you want to stay can blind you to the realisation you don't love it anymore.

#1. Having one sim work is part of the rules and there's a degree of flexibility for it but part of the challenge is having a single sim look after the children for the majority of the time so I'd say no.

#2. You can definitely opt out of playing for points! Points are just there for people who choose to use them, as with most challenges :)

Oh. I kinda do that anyway with some files of my game play. So the challenge would basically what I do anyway, except not stopping at six kids, and not turning ageing off so the kids stay at different life stages. One parent working, the other not.

Maybe I won't try this challenge then.
