Finishing challenges…

I love the Pinstar's Legacy Challenge which I think may have set off a whole host of other challenges. I played it first in Sims2. I learned things about the game I hadn't known prior, and also had quite a number of Firsts, too. I went on to play the Sims3 version of the same challenge. I think I was up to the 3rd generation (of the required 10) but that's when I got sick. I was in the hospital and then rehab for about five-six weeks. By the time I actually got back home, I was more focused on finishing up the mini-series in my siggie below, than playing my game. By the time that was finished and I got back to Sims3, I could no longer make heads, or tails of what was going on. Suffice it to say, I never finished that challenge for Sims3. I did get very excited when I learned Pinstar and his assistant now wife were in the midst of designing the challenge for Sim4. I brought my Rock Star forward to be my Founder. I managed to mess up the challenge in the 2nd Gen. (I made a HUGE mistake regarding the rules of choosing an heir. I failed to reread that section to notice there was a codicil attached.) Had I noticed I could have carried on. :open_mouth:

I tried to recreate the second Gen Heirs, but that's when I learned the walk by Sims are not permanent like the Townies. She had died in my game, as did my Founder, but there was no going back using her. I was heart-broken. Took me a year to get over those feelings to try again. I started with Erik Cantrell as my Founder once again, mostly keeping his background with just a little tweaking. It turned out just fine, in the long run, but the storyline changed dramatically. But that's okay. I still had Firsts in that game. I completed that challenge. Yay, me.
