Rules

 With every challenge, I will be following these rules with some changes.  I will post on this page the changes that I am making.


Rules


  1. The Family Wealth will be decided between a randomized number between 6,000 and 20,000.  To start any family above 20,000 seems like a cheat to me and I rather have a family start with humble beginnings as with the legacy challenge rules.
  2. The mayor will build a City Hall at level 5 in the career however I will not be stopping the progress of the political career at any time.  I will let one more sim join as an assistant at level 4 when the sim is able to find the job in the newspaper.  When the mayor dies the assistant will become the new mayor. The job will go by seniority in the political career.
  3. The Architect will be the first sim to find the job in the paper.  At level 3 the architect will hire an assistant.  As with the Mayor, the assistant will become the new architect when the old one dies and the job will go by seniority.  At level 5 the Architect will build a construction company and a real estate agency.  Until this happens no new houses or any kind of building will be built including City Hall.  No new families will be added to the rotation and all businesses will have to be home businesses until the Architect has built the construction and real estate office.  Until
  4. I will be adding a park to the town as I do want the founders to have a place to meet and leave their homes for a little while.  They do deserve some kind of fun.
  5. Medical/Science, Education, Journalism, Oceanography, and Law Careers are only open to University Graduates.
  6. The Sim Multiplier will not be used to determine the population. The Population will be decided by how many playable sims there are in the neighborhood.
  7. The Family Names must not die off so the founders must only marry townies.  After the town grows a bit, sims from any family can intermarry as long as there is another heir that can carry on family names.
  8. I will be watching the sim's wants for growing the family.  Sims must roll a want to marry and have children.  However, if a sim doesn't roll a want to marry they must adopt a child to carry on the family name.
  9. Mods will be used for game enhancement but not for cheats.
These are my starting Rules they might be amended as I am just getting back to Sims 2 and this is a new challenge to me.

Round 1-Fall-Susan Kane-Bad Luck Chance Card

Image
  The first rotation has a lot of ups and downs for Susan.  Day 1 in the Political Career, Susan was promoted to Intern and on Day 2 she was promoted to Lobbyist.  However on Day 3, she was given a chance card and ended up losing her job.  If we had a deputy mayor that sim would have inherited the job but sadly we do not.  There will be a special election (The first sim to find the job in the paper is considered a special election) to determine who is the new mayor.  Susan is still eligble for the job.   At the beginning of the round her taxes came out to $1,928.80 which she will send to the new mayor if she doesn't hold the job.  In the meantime we should be working on her Lifetime Wish of Having 6 Grandchildren so we will send her to the park to meet up with some eligble bachelors.

  Unlike Wyndham, Ursula was able to pay her taxes of $1,229.00.  Who she paid them to?  I'm not sure.   However, she is going to have to find a way to earn money somehow and I thought she could do some gardening.  Ursula thought it was a good idea to Garden in her underwear.  Oh well, she does want to woohoo with 20 different sims so I guess I should expect this behavior from her. We do need to work on that LTW so should start on that. It looks like the Chandler household has a new addition to it.  Ursula adopted a stray dog named Tucker.  I did decide that the first household to adopt a stray pet would be the first one to open a pet store and I am going to stick with it but it turns out that Ursula has won the special Election.  Ursula is the new mayor. Our next stop is with Vivian Cortlandt.   Vivian's taxes came out to $1,283 which she was able to pay. Her love interest Bruce Rauscher has moved in as we can see they are in ...
