@Hermitgirl It's a good thing teens can't die from emotions, eh? Poor girl. :( It's tough for Rags to Riches Sims, especially teens who actually have a big chunk of their day unavailable to work on getting ahead. Thank goodness for venues! I've modified Magnolia Blossom Park in my custom template save to include tents, a firepit, showers, vending machines etc., just to make things a bit easier on them in an emergency. I try not to use that stuff, but it's there if they need it. ;)
I didn't let Tessa go to that Park though since I made it a rule for her she couldn't leave the world unless invited somewhere, at first. I later modified that after a suggestion from SoulGal7 to say Sims couldn't leave the world to travel anywhere until that world was already played. Those are just MY rules though, you're free to do this challenge however is fun and works for you! :) Besides you put the venue right in her world, smart! I really like that build, very pretty!
Ah, she's painting for her income! She'll be set in no time doing that! :) Great she met Duane. He's one of my favorite Sims, so cute! Perhaps a romance for Roxanne? ;) Bummer she got electrocuted though. o.O I'm so glad you like this challenge and it's taken you out of your comfort zone. I'm hoping the same happens for me. I have a bad habit of starting things and then getting bored and starting another save with a new Sim. So far it's been far from boring for me, I'm hopeful that continues to be the case. :)
@Ellupelluellu No, NAPS is turned off by default in my game until I'm ready to play it. Autonomy is turned off for Tessa and Josh. While Josh and Joel were chatting and I was looking for subjects for them to talk about, I noticed the 'practice fighting' action and thought it would be fun to have the brothers playfully fight. That's what brothers do, right? :D
Wow, that's a lot of yellow! I like it though. It looks similar to the inside of Tessa's home until I updated it. Glad to read I'm not the only one that gives their Sims a favorite color theme. :)
@Kanindota That's cool, no worries. You don't have to go in order with the packs like I have though, with Sulani being the final world. You could just pick and choose an order from whatever packs you do own now. As long as your Sim starts as a teen, lives in one world per month, does any aspirations associated with that world, ages up every three months and you post one screenshot per day, those are the base 'rules' for this challenge that matter most. Totally up to you how you approach the challenge or when you want to start. This thread will be active all year (hopefully) so feel free to pop in and comment or start whenever you like. :)
