to like participate in a contest and submit their built lot (like with early access to build mode demo of any and every upcoming dlc/pack release) and from there have the community of simmers decide via voting which build(s) in the final stage of the expansion/game/stuck pack as a premade lot. Cause, let's admit it: Developers are sometimes and some are not that great of builders, but this idea (and yeah, kinda inspired by the initiative of the community stuff pack project moderated by Graham) would allow simmers choose which build is worth being released with inside the dedicated pack with its introduced items. Or just allow developers continue on building premade lots but alongside joined by fans of the series.

The idea's great but I think it would be too much of a hassle. The number of builds in the competition would probably be massive and so would the amount of ''not-so-great-builds'' in it which would make the voting process hard for everyone. And I don't think it would necessarily be fair considering that someone who's ''famous'' in the community would get votes much easier than a person who absolutely no-one has ever heard of.
