The 10acy Challenge (Beta) Trait Chart Updated 7/21/17

The Tenacy ( Pronounced "Tennessee") is challenge I developed through my boredom with my sims game. It started out initially as just a trait points sheet to use on my own sims and force me to use traits I probably wouldn't even think of using. It eventually developed into my take on a whimacy. It's a simple challenge, not heavily reliant on score as of yet. It can be played as a legacy or a single lifetime challenge.

It's still pretty much in its BETA phase, so any input would be useful.

Choose wisely.

Tip:If you want to still be able to choose traits at random and still be able use the chart above, you can use the customize-able trait generator at creatarandomsim.com. It's best to customize according to the point bracket.

  • If you move a sim move in, delete any funds they bring to the household. The exception is Fortune Aspiration.


    GAMEPLAY
    You can purchase objects that help actively put you sim in a particular mood. Active object means an object that your sim has to interact with to get in a mood.
    Example: A snob sim needs to critique stuff, so it would be wise to purchase a painting.

    *Update: 4/25: You can only do actions that fulfill your sims whims and wishes. Otherwise, let them act autonomously. The only exceptions would be when their needs are depleted (orange/red) and any interactions with mailbox.

    *Added 4/25:You may lock in your sim's wish.

    You are granted complete control of sim's social interaction if sim wishes to make a friend or enemy with no one specifically. This means you can also introduce your sim to anyone on the current lot.

    You may woohoo if this sim wishes for it and it must be with a familiar sim who has a romantic relationship bar with.

    You do not have to a complete a whim if there is no way to do so. Wait until new wishes are rolled.
    Example: Sim wishes to dance but the sim doesn’t own nor wish to own one nor does Sim wish to go a lounge or nightclub to dance. *Wish stacking is very important.

    *Update: 4/25:Fill needs ONLY if they have an orange or red need moodlet. When a need is red it takes precedence over everything.

    *Update: 7/16:For every 10 whims you fulfill, you have until that sim sleeps to do whatever you please. After the sim goes to sleep, it’s back to following your sims whims.

    For every 100 whims you fulfill, you will be allow to take full control of your sim for 24 in-game hours.

    Move objects that are in your sims way but you may not order them to clean if they don't wish for it or do it autonomously.

    Work on any job related task and requirement if your sim wishes for a job promotion.

    You are allowed to have your sim perform actions that help bring certain emotions if you sim wishes.
    Example: Sim wishes to be energized for work. You can have them take an energizing shower.

    Let your sim choose their mate. Choosing a mate, marriage and interact romantically with another sim is strictly prohibited unless the sim wishes for such.

    Try for baby only if your sim wishes for it. If they don’t wish for one, you can’t have one.

    You may only help your sim skill level up if they have a Level up {skill} wish.

    *Added: 4/25:If another sim visits you sims lot, you can invite them in. However, all interactions with the visiting sim must remain autonomous unless your sim wishes for a certain interaction.

    When your sim wishes for a job promotion, lock it and work on any skill or task related to sim's career.

    If an item breaks, do not repair it if the sims has no wish to repair it. If they don’t, buy a replacement.

    *Update: 4/25:Once you've made 4,000 satisfaction points, you may use them. Spending aspiration points on a extra traits is allowed. Purchasing potions is not allowed.

    If you’re playing generational, the criteria for choosing an heir is up to you.

    You can change lots at any time.

    You may not control any other sim in your household. 

    Scoring

    For challenge: If you fail to complete your aspiration, you fail the challenge.

    For legacy Updated 7/15: If your sim completes their aspiration, you can deduct 1 point from the aspiration section of the point sheet for your chosen heir and add the extra point to the traits section. Also if you complete every generational criteria, you can deduct 1 point from the aspiration section.

    I hope you guys would try it out, I'd surely love some feedback. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

    Happy Gaming.
