Ebony and Ivory Genetics Challenge V.2
This is a new beginning to a classic challenge created by Octojenn.
All credit goes to her.
The idea of this challenge is the same as the original. Each sim (heir) will be paired with another sim from the genepool. The only rule is that the heir's mate has to be a different skin tone then they are. All sims are welcome no matter their skintone. The two founders are a black male and a white female. That is where the Ebony and Ivory Challenge gets it's unique name from. You will play through each generation comparing heirs and their families.
There aren't any deadlines, so you may play at your own pace.
Anyone can join at anytime. So don't just lurk, Join! General Pic Thread Post pictures of your family here.
Keep track of your family using the Family Echo family tree maker.

I also updated the old main page with a link to this thread

I went ahead and chose the first set of mates but we can vote on generation 3 mates. So be on the lookout for female and male mates. I decided to just use two choices, hope you all don't mind.
Edit.
Thank you Jenn for linking the page.
I really like the sims you chose. Nahla is adorable (love that name) and Hugh is one hunky sim. Are we going to be using our simselves in the challenge at some point? We all had fun when we did that with the original genetic's challenge... wow that seems like ages ago now lol
I'm gonna shamelessly plug my sim Terrence. I haven't gotten the chance to play with him at all and I really want to. I think he was a mate somewhere down the line in the first E&I challenge but I can't remember. lol My memory sucks. :P:mrgreen:

Edit
I just read the picture thread, You don't think they transferred from my game to yours if that is even possible? Wait, I forgot I made them on my other computer and it doesn't have any mods or cc on it.
LOL I don't think mods transfer. I think it's just being weird since the update twallan made was for the new sp that I don't have. Or maybe that patch EA out out has something to do with it. I dunno but I deleted all my cc and I am starting over...feel so naked :oops: without my CC

I think before we pick out a bunch of lovely female sims we use everyone's simselves as mates. We're all girls so if we do that we're set for female mates for a long time. As far as guys go I like, Terrence, Deon, and "asian male" (weird to say lol) the most. There's alot of great choices though, I'd be happy with whatever.
I just got home from my daughters pre-k orientation so when she's in bed tonight I'll be updating and commenting. :-)
Okay, I counted up the votes and Terrance will be the generation 3 male choice.
Thank you all for voting.
Thanks everyone who answered questions for me. I try to check the thread at least twice a night.
I think we will use Sapphire's simself for the generation 4 mate.
Gonna get some play time in before bed.
Happy Simming.
Amada- I love that Ebony's name is Tyler since the originals where the Taylor's lol
EDIT: So I've got my mods working again. What a relief! I was NOT enjoying my mod free playtime....I think I almost died from boredom lol j/k But yeah blunote00 totally help me out. Apparently I forgot to remove my mods folder prior to the latest patch. Luckily nothing crazy happened except the game being lifeless :? So I expect to have another update sometime today

im going to have to try some mods.. ive been playing without them since i got the game, now im curious.
i also still want to play a bit more before i update.. so im off to play. (:
Me and Heckstress have been playing exclusively with Twallan's. I know there are other mods out there but his are the most popular. Just make sure you take the time to read what each one does. He has quite a few and they include extras too. He even has one that makes it so there are vampire slayers in your town lol I haven't tried it yet but I've been eye-balling it

Like Jenn said I play with twallan's master controller and story progression. I don't use very much cc so I was kinda wary about using mods, but Twallan's are great, and he updates them frequently. If you're gonna try some I'd recommend twallan's. They spice up the game quite a bit. I could live without them but I'm glad I don't have to. I haven't heard about the vampire slayer mod lol I'll have to check that out.
