I had to modify the house to fit the budget, so I changed the link to the gallery and the front view picture of the house. Dont reallt have time to take screenshots of the rest of the house right now
If someone could quote this and fix the links that would be amazing!

The 3 Bears is a very nice home! @solvorsh Very nice exterior design of the home! The curved roofing looks great! Very nice roof covered front entry porchway. Very nice front outdoors area of the home! The pond in the front garden looks very nice. The rocks, planes and flowers look nice on the edges of the water. Sims will enjoy feeding the birds using the bird feeder. The water fountain and the watering can on the tree stump are nice touches there. The pots of flowers looks very nice. Very nice furnishing of the interior of the home! The open plan layout of the living, dining and kitchen looks very nice. It looks great how the kitchen cabinets have been placed around the kitchen windows, and the green flower curtains look pretty. The fruit pictures are a great touch on the wall. Very nice sofa and armchair fireplace siting nook! Sims will enjoy resting there in front of the fire chatting. The sunflowers and candles on the fireplace ledge and the dining table are sunny and nice for sims to see when sitting near the fire or dining at the table. Very nice outdoors firepit and gardening nook! Sims will enjoy sitting on the log seats toasting food and keeping warm, or enjoying growing plants in the gardening boxes. The woodworking porch is great for sims to enjoy doing woodcrafting on the woodwork table . Very nice master bedroom! The patterned floor rug is a nice touch under the bed. The wooden hearts look pretty on the wall. The teaset looks homely on the table for sims to enjoy having a drink in their bedroom.
The home is very nice!
I like the haunted house theme nice to try something different in this one but my curse is how to build it never mind I'll try do a work around it some how if it gets done on time
That is the reason why I keep doing my entries here @Cbear13@lisa17ann we can build whatever is in our minds but at the same time the judging is so accurate I appreciate this balance
Oh @chips46 that cabin is not plain at all! Actually I do not think you can do a plain build (only if you place a square room and leave it like that, lol).
@emere yeah i try not to put to many requirements on you guys i love that we get such a diversity in entries and to be honest im not great with styles other than modern so i probably wouldnt be the best judge if i started putting styles in requirements
Hi everyone,
We have some small changes coming into the QC competitions that I would like to inform you of and I hope that the changes doesn't upset anyone. QC Monthly Challenge budgets
So firstly we will be bringing in a maximum budget for the QC Monthly Competition, the exact amount is still being discussed and we would love your input before we make our final decision so please let us know your thoughts. At the moment we are hovering around the 1.2mil mark. There will be no minimum budget on these challenges.
The reason for this is a lot of huge builds are hard to load on some computers so it can make it very hard for the judges to judge but also for other players to download and play with those builds.
We dont want to limit people to much and don't want budget worries so we need to agree on a decent budget.
Secondly Maxis nomination prize
While we don't even know if Maxis reads our nominations we have had quite a lot of our winning entries get maxis favs.
The change we are putting into effect is that only experienced and advanced levels will get nominations for wins. Intermediate entry wins will no longer get nominations. The sim challenges are not effected (they will still get maxis nominations)
Also any winning entries that have more than the 15 placement or play ability issues combined will not be nominated. For room challenge entries it is 10 not 15.
The reasons for this change is we would like to encourage people to improve and really make sure their builds are good quality and easily playable. We also don't want to nominate builds that may have quite a lot of errors.
I hope this doesn't upset anyone it is in no way a punishment but more of an incentive to just be careful when building.
Lastly QC Competition Guide
I have been planning this for quite a long time and its finally done, though it will be updated, edited as time goes on to keep with times as things change.
You can find it here on the QC Practice challenge thread: QC Competition Guide
I highly recommend that everyone read it, even if you don't read the whole thing skip to the areas that most relate to you. We do still have a lot of placement issues in entries and this guide will give you more of an insight on how we judges look at your builds and score them.
Call it cheating in a way because we are giving you the information you need to win challenges.
Feel free to leave feedback as I am sure we have missed some useful information.
I also suggest anyone new to the competitions to read the whole guide carefully.
I hope it helps we do spend a lot of time making these competitions to make them enjoyable and as fair as possible.
The guide is so great! Exited about the new challenge, it's so hard doing spooky builds that also is playable and looks great. Already started mine over three times cause I'm pretty inexperienced with these kind of builds, so this is great.
@solvorsh we are willing to help with anything you get stuck on or with ideas, I also googled haunted house images and it came up with some awesome houses that could help with inspiration and design

Hello @solvorsh I will look forward to seeing your build!

Yeah, I have been looking all over Pinterest and found some pretty neat houses that gave me inspiration. I think the hardest part is finding wallpapers and flooring that fit in with the style. Everything looks so shiny and new, haha!
Challenge 31 results are now posted on page 1, it has been a very busy challenge for judging so sorry about the delay.
Lol I also couldn't fit all the feedback on the results post so it has now been split into two posts, you may find the sim challenge results in the post underneath the build challenge results
Congratulations to the winners and to everyone for your creative and wonderful entries
To the winners here are your banners, sigs and award. Please save them to your computers
