But, I really wish that EA would put a flag in the Spark'd gallery that automatically removes households from the challenge if there is not an elder in the household. Sims are spamming these challenges with their created sims that don't fit the challenge and it makes it difficult to impossible to weed through these entries that don't meet the contest guidelines to vote for entries you like.
Please consider making a change to the Gallery to auto flag these uploads. Also, please add a selection to the flag report that allows people to flag content that doesn't meet the contest guidelines.
It'll be the same mess. How's this going to be a fair competition? Does anyone at ea/maxis cares?
Are the winners already chosen before the contest? Why else would ea/maxis not care to solve the problems before starting a new challenge?
Unless you have a social media to promote your creations and a following large enough to vote you out of the mess, your creation will just be lost in a sea of items that will end up disqualified but make it impossible for you to get a fair vote for others to actually see your work.
We really need a way to report these people or someone moderating it. People having their items removed as warning and if it continues, ban them from uploading for 24 hrs. 48 hrs. 72 hrs. They will learn eventually.

Here I am with my video... and on the Challenge site, there is no submission form in the How to Submit section, for Storytellers! Help! Where am I supposed to go, what am I supposed to do? Thanks.
Check out my Random Sims Skills Generator and more.
The submission window ended earlier today, I guess that was a bit of confusion with the different timezones. I'll see if I can find out more for you on that!
I'm really sorry that you had these experiences, it must have been very discouraging for you.
@ElizabethMc I reached out to the Spark'd team. Unfortunately, there is no way to submit creations after the closing. Apologies for that. And even though this doesn't help right now, I sent this on as feedback.
@DarkBrew I understand that this is very frustrating and this feedback has also been sent to the team.
And as mentioned before, the indication on the website was misleading so I definitely see where you're coming from. The submission window closed at about 10AM PT as far as I know.
The Road goes ever on and on And I must follow, if I can,
Until it joins some larger way,
Where many paths and errands meet.
It's official now, the Top Spark'd Creators have been announced!
Congrats to everyone who's creations are featured - well done and well deserved!
If you want to check out the great creations, head over here!
And for everyone who wasn't selected from this challenge, I know it might be disappointing but don't let that get you down. You have created amazing Sims, builds, and stories and you can be very proud of yourself!
Let's celebrate the incredible talent that this community has to offer!

definite tell in the sims chosen as a win, Black simmers and other simmers of color just need to start their own game, representation won't happen here.
