• I will post at least once per real-life week in this thread with a short text summary and at least one photo per day covered, with a maximum of twenty-one.
  (I know this kinda defeats the whole point of the challenge but I sadly cannot play every day, and it would be harmful for me to try to do so. This is my compromise to try and take part in an awesome community and challenge while taking care of myself.)
  
• My Sim will live in one Neighborhood per Real Life month - See schedule in spoiler below
  
• After three Real Life months have passed, the Sim will age up to Young Adult for four months, Adult for four months and finally, age up to an Elder for December - See schedule in spoiler below
  
• I will begin Rags-to-Riches style on an empty lot with 0 simoleons.
  
• Aspirations released with a world must be fulfilled first. I may choose a base game or other pack not in the challenge aspiration to complete afterward. I like this rule, but it is kinda pointless since I only have one world-tied aspiration right now...
  So, I will chose one apsiration to fulfil for every month. The rest will remain "free".
  
• All available Aspirations must be completed by the challenge Sim at the end, and all skills available must be maxed out. Achievements are nice to reach but not a requirement.
  
• My Sim may marry and/or have children. Aging up children is at my discretion. If I plan to continue the challenge next year using an heir from this year's challenge, I will make sure my 'heir' is at least a teen before the end of the year.
  
• School attendance is at my own discretion. I may not cheat for grades unless my Sim is in danger of being taken away, but may buy school projects to increase their grade. This is the only time cheating is allowed.
  
• The beginning of each new month/world must start Rags to Riches style. Optional: My Sim may keep personal possessions, sell the rest and bulldoze the house. They may use simoleans from this sale and accumulated household funds to build or download a house from the Gallery.
  I will probably use a mixture of the two to allow myself to enjoy the accumulated wealth, but bring in some challenge if it starts to get boring. I will leave my Sim with 2.5k per pet and 7.5k per child though as I do not want to be cruel.
  
• If my Sim dies, I am allowed to revive them, but must include the incident in the story as a complete break and loss of all possessions and possibly personal relations, with the option of regaining them later.
  
• If a new world is aquired with a new pack at any time during 2022, I have the option to change up my schedule to reflect this.
  
• I will give myself a break if any days are missed due to internet outages, vacations/holidays, real life work/responsibilities or sickness. I'll make up for it by posting as soon as possible.
  
• I may use Satisfaction points to buy reward traits. Money tree seeds are not allowed.
  
• Lottery tickets are allowed for purchase, but if my Sim wins, the next month has to start out rags-to-riches to give myself more of a challenge.
  
• I may participate in all default Holidays, modify, delete and/or add my own.
  
• I will use mods and CC, but refrain from the ones that would give me an advantage over a vanilla game.
  

I have placed Louise in a new game and left all Townies and houes intact. I have, though, replaced parks and put down some venues in Newcrest. CC-free versions of them all are on the gallery under my ID, Noctuara. I may add more, and when I do so, I will note the credits here:

My Seasons will be 14 days long so I have enough time to experience them. As I will move through neighborhoods instead of worlds, I am hoping that this will still give me the chance to see how each world changes throughout the seasons.
I don't use any type of Pose Player and don't plan to in the near future. All screenshots will be game generated poses. Any photography pictures taken won't look all that good for wall hangings, but it will be fun for me.
I have these packs (as of 31th December 2021). I will probably buy some new ones, but not many...

• Basegame
  
• Seasons
  
• Parenthood
  
• Cats&Dogs
  
• Laundry Day
  

I use mods and will list all my script mods a document I will link once completed. If you are curious about the origin of CC I show, please ask and I'll at least try to figure it out.
