The Compendium of Player-Made Challenges - Work In Progress

logo.jpg
I've decided to make this for a few reasons: I had time to kill, make a centralized location to find different challenges, and because the most recent one I could find was last updated in March.
*If you've got a challenge you want added to the list, or know one that should, drop me a message down below.

    I guess daycare falls under reproductive. I ran a bakery for awhile, factories are also fun. Those are easy though and have been done and re-done. Still fun. Collecting is really fun, laggy but fun. I had almost all the collections at one point and had to give up as the house basically stopped loading.

    I put that under completionist which is my current play style.

    Fulfilling all the lifetime wishes would be an interesting challenge.

    Business venues could also play into some real fun, owning everything in town.

    I posted mine over on ybboccobby04's thread, but I figured I might as well post it over here as well to help get the idea circulating...

    Could you add the Fruitacy to the list? Here's a link to the rules: http://siminoid.blogspot.com/p/fruitacy-challenge-rules.html

    I'm guessing it falls under Legacy-esque since it uses most of Pinstar's rules (with a few slight variations), but I'll leave that up to your discretion.

    Thank you! :)

    I'll be keeping an eye on this. I've never really devoted myself to one of these challenges. XD

    Fruitacy added to the list Siminoid. :)

    I'm done hunting challenges myself for the night, I'll check in once more before I go to bed though to add any more that y'all suggest. :mrgreen:

    I love that you are making an updated list of the challenges, however, don't be surprised if they move it to the Stories and Legacies forum.

    You are doing great so far. :wink:

    Thanks for this :) I was looking at the non-updated one just last night. I like the look of the Apocalypse and Homemaker challenges (the only ones Ive looked at so far). Im just about to start the Shades of Love Genetics Challenge, so one of these will definitely be next :)

    Happy Simming :D

    I'm really glad to see this! I'm always looking for a new challenge, and love to see what other people come up with.

    Hope the Guru's sticky it, but in the meantime I'll stick with a bookmark. Thanks!

    Thanks for the kind words all! I'll be sure to add your suggestions soon. I'm thinking of making new signage for my posts, looking back, they seem a bit big and detract from the links. I'd like some input on that. :)

    Added Tribal Legacy and a few other variations. Changed signage, and replaced Misc. category with one for Pets. :)

    Sorry everyone, my summer's been pretty hectic and I never really had anytime to come on here. Now my vacation is winding down so I'll have more time here. Let me know any challenges that should be updated, added, etc., etc., etc. :mrgreen:

    Oooh! I have one. From what I saw from the non-updated one, there's nothing the same, but I may be wrong. I did post the general idea in the Legacy Forum but received no replies. :(

    I've been posting it on my Sims 3 blog, not really sure if anybody reads it, but I'm too nervous to put myself out there on The Forums with it. :oops: Plus I prefer the focus to be on the writing, rather than constantly posting endless images of my sims.

    I now present to you what I like to call: The Black Widow Challenge

    (is it OK if I copy+paste the idea from my Sims 3 blog?)

    The Black Widow Legacy Challenge is a matriarchy with a twist. Each mate the Black Widow (AKA your founder and subsequent heirs) takes, must die upon the conception of a child. The mate must be dead before the child is born. The Black Widow is not permitted to marry.

    The Black Widow is only able to have a maximum of 5 children. This is to prevent a cataclysmic population decline of eligible Sim bachelors. If, after 5 children, no female heir has been produced then you may invoke the King Henry VIII Clause.

    The King Henry VIII Clause
    King Henry VIII was known for his many marriages, and his desperate, selfish need to produce a male heir. Invoking the King Henry VIII Clause, means that your founder/heir must immediately marry a townie and continue to have children until a legitimate female heir is produced. The mate must be killed after the heir is born, and the heir must then die immediately after the birth of their own heir.

    Example
    Sandra has 5 male children to 5 different men (all of whom are dead and buried in the backyard). She invokes The King Henry VIII Clause, and marries her current employer. She continues to have children with him, and gives birth to a baby girl, that she names Henrietta. Henrietta grows up, her mother protecting her from all possible harm. Sandra eventually dies of old age, Henrietta holding her hand. Henrietta finds a job for herself, and falls in love with her co-worker. Henrietta lets herself get pregnant to her co-worker, who sadly dies before the birth of their child, a baby girl. That night, after she's brought the child home from the hospital, a fire breaks out, and consumes poor Henrietta, pinning the hopes of the continuation of her bloodline on the baby girl.

    After the King Henry VIII Clause has been invoked once, it may not be invoked again. Eating watermelon to influence the babies gender after invocation is not permitted. However, eating watermelon before invocation is. If watermelon has been consumed at any time however, the King Henry VIII Clause is unusable.

    Normal legacy rules also apply.

    Deleted to make post shorter

    Interesting. Not really sure how I'd add it to the list though, it's really just links and not blocks of text. :? Nice challenge though.
