    *bookmarks* Ooo...now THIS is right up my alley... I adore genetics. (I'm adoring the BuildNewcrest Challenge rules -- I can just pick whichever kid I want to be heir, so I'm picking the most genetically cool looking ones. xD) I'm gonna go in-game and wipe out Willow Creek right now. >:)

    OK, have a quick question. Is this true legacy style where I have to get down to close to zero money? Or just start like regular and no money cheats.Or??? Just want to make sure Im staying withing the "Rules" Have my couple all ready, used #4 since ive had a Guamanian male sitting around for a bit waiting for some love :)
    Swing by and say "Hi" @PixelatedWoofums.Tumblr.Com

    Morning all! Just woke up here on my side of the world, time to get into this challenge.

    @Selarono - No, this is not in typical legacy style as the main goal of the challenge is to essentially study/focus on the genetics of your sims. I didn't want to make it more difficult by adding in that particular rule. You can use CC and mods to your hearts content. The only cheats I ask that you don't use are ones that alter needs or relationships or careers. Simple things like that.

    Would love to see pics of your couple when you get a chance!

    @JordanNicoleJJ - Hiya JJ! I love genetics as well, its really interesting to see how the sims games handle them. Sometimes the engine can get wacky and sometimes you get some good results.

    @emilyduru - I know right! It pained me to delete the Pancakes, I love those guys. In my head they totally survived hurricane Mortimer and moved to Newcrest. I have someone similar on my gallery.

    I haven't, but I can :) I'll upload him without CC (all my uploads are CC free) but I'll link you to his hair when I do.

    and yaaaaaaaaay! So excited people are joining. I cleared Willow Creek last night, but didn't delete the community lots or townies. I guess I'll need to do that today. I'm hoping to have play time and an update by the end of the day. Looking forward to everyone's pics!!!

    I couldn't help but make all founder couples listed above. Two reasons: 1) I just love making sims LOL 2) So I could then choose which pair out of the couples I want to start with. Couples below:
    White Male | Native American Female

    Hispanic Male | Black Female

    Black Male | Asian Female

    Pacific Islander Male | White Female

    I'm leaning towards the first couple, the White Male & Native American Female pair (Jay & Aponi Jones).

    I also have all couples uploaded to my gallery if anyone wants to jump right in with a pre-made couple :)
    My username is tellekinz - you must have CC enabled/ticked in advanced settings to see all couples.
    If you need to know where the CC is from let me know and i'll list it! I have also tagged all couples with #REBUILDWILLOWCREEK

    Having fun with this challenge at the moment :)

    @Tellex - All your sims look great, but I really love your 3rd couple!

    @ThePlumbob - Hope you'll have time to join. btw I love your signature!

    @OJenn - Loving your couple and their new home. Happy decorating!

    Can anyone recommend a good size for posting pics? I use photobucket so I'll resize them there, just don't wanna post them too big.

    I don't use sizing like we did with the other forums, I don't think you need to anymore. Try posting and lets see what happens.

    Mkay, I've got my couple made -- I'm doing Native American Female | White Male -- Winona and Leland Gilchrist. (Randomly generated names ftw.)

    couple.png

    Native Americans generally have black/brown hair, but I decided to go overboard on the "red" thing instead. Not necessarily realistic, but I like it. And the white male has Scandinavian ancestry with the classic blonde-hair-blue-eyes combo; he's also kind of a pirate, because that's hot. Their stats are (Winona) Family-oriented, Self-assured, Genius, aspiring Renaissance Sim, and (Leland) Self-Assured, Creative, Insane, aspiring Successful Lineage.

    The story goes, Winona's family has roots in Willow Creek for as long as anyone can remember -- they were a founding tribe in the Beginning. Because of this, her family refused to leave when the hurricane hit, and she was the only survivor. Moons later, a pale-face pirate showed up on Willow Creek's shores, and the rest was history. Love, determination, blah blah blah. Being a little crazy and impulsive, Leland jumped right on the offer of re-populating the town; with Winona's smarts and dedication to family, the pair can't fail!

    Now...time to go build 'em a house! :smiley:
  • OJennOJenn Posts: 8,429 Member
    @JordanNicoleJJ - Winona is so pretty! I love the background story as well definitely makes sense and ties in with the overall theme of #rebuldwillowcreek Can't wait to see their home!
