The Sims 3: Doppelganger Challenge Rules

SIMS 3 DOPPELGANGER CHALLENGE

SETTINGS:
This is probably the only time Story Progression will come in handy. So turn it on.

The Doppelganger Challenge doesn't take long, it may only take a weekend.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Create a new save game and make a single young adult Sim in CAS. You can roll traits if you want.

2. Place a copy in the neighborhood. Don't play just yet.

3. Instead, place another copy of the same Sim on the other side of the neighborhood. Hence, the doppelganger part of the title.

4. Play the first copy for three Sim-days.

5. Go to 'Edit Town' and change the active household to the other copy. Story progression may have made some... additions to the family.

6. Play the copy for three Sim-days and then switch back to the other. The game will soon have your Sims in crazy situations only Story Progression could come up with.

No point system, because people tend to not use them. I may draft one later, though.

CHEATS:
Building cheats allowed, but not money cheats.

Before you protest, you ARE allowed to boost and lock motives using 'testingcheatsenabled true'. This means you don't have to expend Simoleons on fridges, tubs or toilets, making housing affordable without money cheats.

The Sims 3: The "Klepto King" Challenge Rules

SIMS 3:THE"KLEPTO KING"

CHALLENGE RULES

Main Goal: 

To see how much your house is worth by the time your Sim reaches the ripe of age of 90.

Setting up the Challenge

1. Create a Sim. They must be a Young Adult. They can be any gender. (Looks wise: They must wear all black for all of their outfits).

2. Their traits MUST include Kleptomaniac, Mooch, and Evil.

3. Their lifetime wish must be Master-Thief.

4. Purchase the house called "The Monotone". It must be UNFURNISHED. If you want to play inRiverview, please copy this house over.

5. You will see that your house is equipped with the essentials.

6. Buy the most expensive bed.

Rules

1.You are NOT allowed to buy ANYTHING from buy mode EVER.

2. Extending the house includes anything in Build Mode that CANNOT be stolen, e.g. driveways, swimming pools, windows, doors etc.

3. Money made can ONLY be spent on extending the house, hiring a maid, repairman, or babysitter.

4. Everything MUST be stolen from other people's houses

5. You are NOT allowed a burglar alarm (The Monotone house shouldn't have one anyway). If you get burgled, that's karma for you!

6.You are NOT allowed a job,(even a part-time job) EVER.

7. ALL money and food must be made through mooching off other Sims (no gardening or playing the guitar for tips).

8. You CANNOT steal or sell seeds. (If you want, you can steal other Sims vegetables by harvesting them).

9. You can sell these stolen goods. (You CANNOT however grow vegetables on your own lot.)

10. Seeing as Kleptomaniacs like shinny jewels, you can also make money through cutting gems.

11. In the case of metals + space rocks, you can only sell these. (You cannot smelt them).

12. Once you have stolen the most you can that day (3 items) you CANNOT steal from that same house again. However, you CAN return to mooch money or food off those Sims.

13. If you are concerned about running out of houses in the neighbourhood to steal from, make sure Story Progression is turned ON. You can steal from the same house if it has a new family in.

14. If your Sim wants a partner or child, they must have NO income WHATSOEVER, and they are NOT allowed to help swipe.

15. Sim Lifespan MUST be set to "Normal: 90 Sim days".

16. You can ONLY steal from the base-game houses. (This makes it fair for everyone, and stops people downloading really expensive houses just for the items).

17. You can NEVER return any stolen goods. If you are stuck with 3 ceiling lamps from the same house - tough! (That's the fun of the game!)

18.YOU CAN ONLY STEAL A MAXIMUM OF 5 CARS.

19. You must place your three stolen objects into your home as soon as you get back from stealing.

How To Steal

1. Go to a Sims house.

2. Ask to go inside.

3. Once sun has set, you will be able to click on the floor near an object and select "Swipe Something". It is RANDOM what object near where you selected your Sim swipes. (That adds to the fun of hoping to get a TV for your house, only to get yet ANOTHER dining chair!)

4. Once you have stolen 3 items, go back to your house. Your stolen items will be in the FAMILY INVENTORY, which is accessed through Buy Mode.

Tip: I would suggest getting to know the Sim who's house you target. This way you can mooch off them, and also ask to stay over. This way you can steal from them when they are asleep - if a Sim is in the same room as you, you cannot steal, so you could end up being asked to leave before you get a chance to swipe!)

Once the Challenge is complete look in the buy mode to get the worth of the house!

This is not challenge wrote by me. Here is original source: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=344616

This challenge is similar to other that I posted on my blog but bit different:

The Sims 3: 100 Baby Challenge

SIMS 3: 100 BABY CHALLENGE

          Goal is to have 100 babies in a female Sims Lifespan.

Rules
1. Play the game how you normally would (if that means cheats then yes). However, you can’t use cheats to the point that you are doing nothing. You have to earn your money and you have to take care for your kids. You can play the game on whatever life span YOU want, but I play on epic. (Epic is highly suggested).

2. You have to teach toddler to at least talk and walk.

3. Earn your money by painting and guitar or even by writing books (jobs you would have a lot of vacation time.)

4. You can grow up your kids, you don’t have to wait for them to age automatically, birthday cakes are your best friends.

Note: To make the necessary room in the house for new babies (8 people allowed to live in the house at any one time of course), you have to age 'em quick, and Kick 'EM Out fast! Speed is a major factor.

Keep in mind, the Challenge is called the 100 "baby" challenge. You can birthday cake each child to the extreme (let the parents age normally, of course).

5. The kids have to go to school, education is good : )

6. You can have home or hospital births.

7. You can use lifetime rewards. (fertility)

8. Try to have different fathers. (unless it goes along with the story)

9. Teens can help you out with toddlers. (teaching them)

10. You can hire babysitters.

11. HAVE FUN!

The Sims 3: Jack of Many Trades-A Sims 3 Challenge Rules

This challenge was created by my friend Jeremina. Here is her BLOG and the original page of the challenge 

Jack of Many Trades-A Sims 3 Challenge 

 "I have a new challenge that I would like to share. I call it Jack(or Jill) of Many Trades. Here are the goals and rules of the challenge. I will be playing the challenge as well. To start reading from the start, click here:http://jeremina5.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/zeus-simopolis-log-1/

2 Main Goals:

1) Have as many children as you can! Populate that town baby!!!

2) Master as many careers as you can!

Main Rules:

1) No cheats. Yeah, I know…but it does make it a challenge.

2) Set your life span to EPIC.

3) Meager beginnings. I recommend a VERY large, empty lot…You’re going to need it!

Ready? Create a Sim. Your choice. Male/Female. Choose your own traits and Lifetime want.

So, here is a break down of the goals…

Babies and Such-

I recommend getting married. I am slightly old fashion in that way, plus it will make the rest of the challenge a bit easier.

Your spouse will stay at home to raise all those wonderful children while you are bringing home the bacon. Your spouse may be “self-employed” (if you have Ambitions), and can earn money for the house by painting, writing, gardening, inventing,etc. (if you don’t have Ambitions, your spouse can still earn money in these ways)

You can not have fertility treatment for either partner. If you have twins, or triples naturally, that’s ok. (If you don’t want to play for points, and are really up for a challenge, Fertility Treatment is ok.)

Since you are playing on epic, you can age your children as you see fit. I do recommend following this plan.. Infants- after 1 day. Toddler- after all skills have been taught. Children- after they earn honor roll. Teens- after they earn honor roll.  When your children reach Young Adults, you move ‘em out.

As far as your children’s traits, no rules. You can pick them, or randomize them. Your choice.

Career

Work your way up to the top! Once you reach level 10 of your career - change jobs!

Attempt to reach the top of as many careers as you can!

And of course, max out as many skills as you can!

There is no rule as to using your lifetime points for job enhancing bonuses.

Do NOT change your personality when you change careers.

Points

1 point for every child you have

10 points for every skill maxed (of course this will differ slighty depending on Expansion packs)

50 points for every career completed.

To end the challenge, you have 2 ending paths.

1) When you reach the level 10 of each career. A few of the careers have multiple branches: you may choose whether you want to attempt the other branches or not.

2) Your mother sim becomes an elder and can no longer have children.

Happy simming! I would love to see someone try this challenge with a multiple colored couple. Perhaps a Blue husband and a Pink wife, to see how the genetics play out. If you do try this challenge, I would love to know! Thanks! Any questions, feel free to ask! Also feed back on this challenge would be great!"
