The Alotment Challenge
I thought of this challenge last night, so it's a bit of a work in progress but I'm having fun with it so far. This is also my first challenge idea so bare with me...
If you don't want to build your own lot, you can download mine here
Rules so far:
* the sims alotment sizes can be no bigger than 10 x 10
* there must be no more than 1 sim per alotment(unless that sim has a wife and kids)
* the sims must live in their own sheds
* more sims may move into the alotment and have their own shed and garden
* the sims must keep all of their plants alive at all costs
* if any plants die within any alotment, the sim of that alotment is automatically disqualified (however, if your plants go barren or die unexpectedly this does not count and you will not be disqualified)
* each sim has it's own 'bank' so you must keep a total of how much each induvidual sim makes from their plants etc
* each alotment lot must have a pond(not the individual alotments)
* at the start of the challenge, each shed is white (it must be wood clapboard
* you must keep a total of how many fruits/vegatables each sim has sold
* your sim may or may not attend gardening classes
* your sim can sell paintings or anything else to get more money
* each sim starts off with 5000 simoloneons, used to build their shed etc
* your sim may fall in love and have children, but remember that you cannot expand the size of your shed once built
* the size of the overall lot does not matter as long as you can fit the alotment sizes in
* no cheats are to be used except building cheats
* the bathroom part of the shed does not cost any money for the sim(including walls for the bathroom and clapboard & doors)
* each shed MUST fit into the alotment
* outdoor plants for decoration do not cost anything
* gates do not cost anything
* the bills do not count in the sims banks
* your sims must not get jobs
* there must be no more than 1 sim per alotment(unless that sim has a wife and kids)
* the sims must live in their own sheds
* more sims may move into the alotment and have their own shed and garden
* the sims must keep all of their plants alive at all costs
* if any plants die within any alotment, the sim of that alotment is automatically disqualified (however, if your plants go barren or die unexpectedly this does not count and you will not be disqualified)

Sim ranks:
1. 5 fruit/vegatables sold from 5 different plants=blue shed
2. 10 fruit/vegatables sold from 5 different plants=red shed
3. 15 fruit/vegatables sold from 5 different plants=yellow shed
4. 20 fruit/vegatables sold from 5 different plants=green shed
5. 30 fruit/vegatables sold from 6 different plants=purple shed
6. 40 fruit/vegatables sold from 6 different plants=blue and red shed
7. 50 fruit/vegatables sold from 10 different plants=red and yellow shed
8. 100 fruit/vegatables sold from 13 different plants=gold and white
9. 200 fruit/vegatables sold from 13 different plants=silver and copper (brown)
10. 500 fruit/vegatables sold from 13 different plants=your sim has won the challenge and must move out
Your goal:
at least 4 sims must complete the 500 fruit or vegetables goal to win
Your main goal:
have a lot of fun.
Points:
there are no points in this game, only bank/total of fruits and vegetables
My challenge introduction:
Meet my sims:
This is Forest, he is a musician at heart and loves butterflies.
He joined because he wants to meet musicians and make more butterly friends.
This is Brittany, she's the sauce of the group with no fashion sense. She joined to get with all of the guys.
This is Hope, she is shy and loves the outdoors and she joined
because she wants to lose weight and feel better about herself
This is Red, he is a bit of a freak and talks to himself a lot and he joined because he wants to collect fish.
This is Billy, he's an asshole and likes to piss people off with his high school antics.
He joined because he wants to ruin people's lives
This is Francis, she's obsessed with blue and she joined to see how many blue vegetables she can grow.
This challenge is already fun, if you'd like to give it a go let me know how it works out for you.

Hmm, ok. I've never had a plant die from neglect, so I didn't know if the mouseover looked different or the game treated it differently or anything. 
Thanks.
Thanks.

The higher your gardening skill gets, the less likely the plants are to crap out randomly.
Try taking your higher quality produce that you grow and using it at "seed." That seems to help too.

the lot is absolutely beautiful!!! reminds me of a cute little stable on a farm... you know, with all the different stalls and buildings? cute!!
and I love how the sims have reasons for being on the lot =P I need to try this challenge. but I'm also in the middle of an asylum AND writing/testing a challenge I'm making i'll post it when I'm ready... it's going to be a "teen" asylum for juvenile delinquents hehehe we're talking 7 pyromaniac, insane, grumpy teens stuck in one building together with just one adult

They don't -literally- have a bank for themselves. You need to write down their name and how much money they have on notepad (or wordpad) and save as a document so you don't forget.
Example:
John: 5,000
Jane: 400
Etc.

If 2 sims fall in love and marry etc and they both have a shed, do they then share a shed or keep their own, and if they end up sharing can you move in a new Sim to live in the empty shed? Also, with the bathroom, dofurnishings like a toilet, a shower, decorations and stuff come free too or is it just the actual construction? |
They have to share the original shed (yes you can make it bigger if you want) and yes the bathroom decorations etc are free as well.
