Another Challenge Comes to an End with a Successful Challenger
Never before has a challenger suffered so many setbacks so early in their challenge. Regardless, Rebecca was a blast to play, and she overcame everything the game could throw at her. Tailoring her ambitions for the challenge towards what had worked for previous challengers ... She surpassed them all in earnings, most of them in skills ... And definitely set a record for jogging over 4000 km in 112 days ... 🤣
Unlike most challengers ... Spring was a cake walk for Rebecca who had already squared away her requirements and was well on her way to breaking the earnings record. She only 'worked' hard a total of 7 of the last 28 days of her challenge. All other work she may have done was just filling time when no one else was awake, and nothing was open for business, because napping messed up her schedule. She abandoned her garden early in the season as it required her to travel across town ... And her campsite was overrun with gnomes ... 🤣
There's another first for Rebecca ... She is the only challenger to get rid of money instead of keeping everything she could earn. For the entire Spring season, she donated 1000 simoleons a day to whatever cause interested her ... Whether it be the Fire Department or Underprivileged Llamas.
She spent the rest of Spring doing whatever crossed her mind at the moment. Rebecca nailed down skills in all kinds of activities, but generally just had fun. She did continue to tutor both adults and children beating the associated challenges for instruction under the Logic skill.
When she wasn't out fine-tuning her skills ... She was having fun around town. Rebecca even worked the Kissing Booth at the Spring Festival, although she made no tips and gained not a single kiss in hours. Rebecca also was not named Spring Dance Queen ... However, she can bust a mean Smustle on the dancefloor ... 🤣
Goofing off got worse during her last week as she started to get back into the groove of taking things easy. Rebecca was getting her head straight again after all of the adjustments the challenge had demanded. She had 'earned her stripes' and was starting to wonder what her next steps would be after the challenge.
Saturday Morning and the last day of the challenge, Rebecca finished napping around 10:00. She swore it would be the last time she would be sleeping on that couch ... Or any couch for that matter ... 🤣
Rebecca headed over to the Winterly house not long after getting up, and like a pro she whipped up the required Ambrosia. That settled the last task of the Challenge. She went to her campsite to start packing her bags shortly after finishing the meal.
Uh Yeah ... That screenshot was taken before I cleaned out her treasure chest ... And after I did, she finished with over 6.5 million simoleons. That beats Kathy's record by a million or more.
Skills ... She wasn't too shabby in that departments either. She did many things differently than other challengers have and still succeeded with ease under tough circumstances. If Rebecca was attempting the challenge to 'test her metal' ... That it did, and she stepped up to the challenge ... 🏆
She was still a blast to play ... Happy Simming ... 💖
