@kremesch73 Thanks!
@Piperbird71 Excellent. I added a second entry for you to the leaderboard. No point removing your old one, since it's a fair run too!
@fullspiral Wow, poor Mortimer. That's also pretty hilarious though. My second challenger burned to death using his cheap stove while I was away from they keyboard. His shower was broken so he couldn't put himself out! I'm sorry to hear about the setback though. Thanks for sharing your stories!
@Bob89 It looks like @SimPoseyYum answered your question pretty well. :D 20 x 15 is reccomended just so you have more money to start with and buy nicer appliances. The nicer the appliance, the better it takes care of a motive. The most expensive bed refreshes you in half the time of a cheap bed for example. But yes, you may use any lot you wish, and build anywhere on the lot, as long as you don't leave the 8 x 8 area.
@Pooky21365 Thanks! I'm actually working on building some other houses in that neighborhood to match now. XD And since the challenge is over I've moved it and Ixion to my "Play" file where I've got all the rest of the townies. @00Nur 's Joan Alone has been by a few times since.
