The computer I used to play on would just go super slow if I played with more than one sim in a househould, but now since upgrading I've been thinking of having a go at some of the challenges as there is still so much in the game that I haven't actually tried yet. So I'm just curious on what some of the most popular challenges are and what you guys are all playing?
Oh man, I LOVE challenges! That's how I play probably 90% of the time. The better question for me would be what challenges haven't you played? lol Here's a list of all the challenges I've played. I'll put it in a spoiler since it's quite big.
Pinstar's Original Legacy - TS2 & TS4 Random Legacy ISBI Challenge - TS2 & TS4 *Not So Berry *Breed Out the Ugly Time Lord Challenge - on my 3rd or 4th Regeneration. Had to stop because my old laptop couldn't handle how large my Tardis had expanded. Apocalypse Challenge Build Newcrest Challenge Tiny Living Challenge Three Little Sims Island Challenge Just One Sim *Photographer Collection Challenge Bring Me Back to Life Challenge Rosebud & Rosebud 500k Solitaire Challenges Challenge Mash-up Challenge 33 Day Create-A-Sim Challenge - Submitted for several Days, but haven't done all 33. *Git Er Done Challenge - My own made up challenge consisting of everything I haven't done yet in TS4 Super Sim Challenge - This will always be a WIP as more packs are added
*100 Baby Challenge - Just started this one a couple days ago, but probably won't continue it. I forgot how much the sound of TS4 crying babies drives me nuts until my matriarch had twins (only my third set). Had to mute the game which bums me out because I love all the other sounds in the game. We'll see...

Completed
Runaway Teen - Twice Runaway Siblings Homeless Challenge - Thrice Homeless Elder Challenge - Twice Asylum Challenge - Thrice Living Off the Grid - Twice Living Off the Land Room Challenge - Thrice Eco Existence Challenge - Twice Build -N- Share - Numerous Rounds Under Renovation - One or Two Rounds Mini Micro Build Challenge - Numerous Rounds Extreme Rags to Riches - Twice Rags to Riches - Too many times to count, it's how I normally start ALL my saves if a challenge doesn't require joining a career. :) 7 Toddlers Challenge One Room One Week One Theme Build Challenge - Numerous Rounds Collections Sim Challenge - My own made up challenge where I used one Sim starting out Rags to Riches style to collect everything possible for the packs I own. Independence Challenge Hands Off Yo - My own updated version from TS2
Color Queen Modeling Contest - I had to drop out after three rounds though because my old laptop couldn't handle Mods/CC and you really need those to properly compete in modeling. I tried though and it was lots of fun! Might consider joining another one now that I have a new gaming desktop.
Out of all those listed in the spoiler I've had the most fun with; all the build challenges, Asylum, Time Lord, Room, Homeless/Homeless Elder, Collections Sim, Eco Existence, LOTG, Not So Berry, Photographer Collections Sim, Apocalypse, BOTU, Random Legacy, Super Sim, ISBI, and all the Rags to Riches versions I've tried.
If I had to pick an all time favorite, of course it's starting out Rags to Riches style, but for a regular type challenge it would be the Asylum challenge. For build challenges, it's Build -N-Share hands down with One Room One Week One Theme a very close second.
I've been playing the Drifter Challenge. You completely empty out Oasis Springs and Willow Creek and for each generation you start over and build a new house. There are discussions on this forum but the rules were updated on the blog. Fun because it goes quickly -- at least for the first few houses, you only control one sim. I've almost completed House 002.

I started a variation of the Rags to Riches challenge which morphed into the Matriarch Legacy Challenge with my founders' only child being a daughter and she in turn has a first-born daughter(and a son who was born a week later). Parker, the first-born, is who I'm playing now in San Myshuno with her boyfriend, Jarod Adams.
I started to do the Black Widow challenge. However it changed in the game play. Instead of a wealthy guy she married, it was an elderly man. Mr Kim. She couldn't find any wealthy guys to marry.
I'm a legacy/genetacy style player. And I stick to that in S4, though I do wonder how on earth I'm supposed to fit all those sims into these worlds! I played a lot more challenges in S2, but my faves are still legacy/gentacy with the addition of BACC - which I kind of play like a bunch of legacies lol.
I see a few suggesting the 100 baby challenge. I've had issues with it corrupting my game for some reason before I even reach like 10 kids so that may be something to look out for. Maybe it's just my computer not sure how though. I move the kids out as soon as I can so that I can move on. Just something to keep in mind I suppose.
My fave challenges are:
*Legacy challenges (any of them really) *Rags to Riches (which can be turned into a Legacy challenge) *Ugly Duckling (also called Breed out the Ugly)
TBH I don't understand the "challenge" when it's the Ugly to Beautiful and you're CAS the whole time, but that's another one I see on Youtube a lot. Probably because it makes for great one shot videos lol.
