Megahood Wants Rules

Welcome to Megahood Wants, where we go from house to house, town to town filling at least 5 wants per day, per sim for a season.

I have been reading ASimWen‘s challenge for a few years now (it was started in 2011).  She recently came back after almost two years away and it really got me interested in trying this challenge (again).

Playing order:

  1. Pleasantview
  2. Veronaville
  3. Uni – Sim State
  4. Riverblossom Hills
  5. Desiderata Valley
  6. Uni – La Fiesta Tech
  7. Strangetown
  8. Bluewater Village
  9. Uni – Academie La Tour
  10. Belladonna Cove

Rules:

  1. Fulfill at least 5 wants per day, per sim.
  2. The citizens of the Megahood will choose their own mates.
  3. “WooHoo” wish can never be ignored. I use the Risky Woo Hoo hack in my game, and I will only choose Try For Baby for someone with the want for a baby locked in. My Sim may get pregnant, may not.
  4. When the phone rings, answer it.
  5. All invites out must be accepted, unless a pregnant sim has low stats or they have visitors on the lot already.
  6. Permanent Platinum Sims may or may not have their wishes filled.
  7. University:  Sims will only go to University if they roll the wish and it stays for 48 hours without it being locked in.
  8. All original adult sims will automatically be graduated from University using the Batbox.  I like to think they all had lives before the game actually started.
  9. Single sims/romance sims who become pregnant will roll a dice to see if they keep the baby or put it up for adoption.
  10. A try for baby that fails three times makes that sim infertile and they can adopt a baby from the Orphanage.
  11. Risky is set at 30%.
  12. No one can move out of the house until after 6 pm Sunday night.  They will get their names listed last on the rotation.

I will add more stuff here, if I feel anything needs changing.

New! November 2019:

  1. I started playing a Megahood using Meetme2therivers cleaned hoods.
  2. I will be playing Prosperity style and may do points
  3. I’m using no20khandouts.
  4. All chance cards must be taken for good or bad.

New! May 2020:

  1. University will be played differently than I usually do.  It will now be one semester at uni and one rotation back in their hometown.  The hope is that I don’t get a stockpile of people in Uni that all end up aging at the same time.

New! June 2020:

  1. University:  I will be rolling a dice to determine what university the teens go to.   A 1 or 4 sends the sim to Academia La Tour, 2 or 5 they go to Sim State and a 3 or 6 they go to La Fiesta.  This way the sims from all the neighborhoods get mixed up throughout the different unis if they go. (ciyrose)
  2.  When a sim moves out or graduates from Uni a random number between 1 and 8 will be picked.  That will be the neighborhood they move into (unless they are an heir which means they will move back home) (ciyrose)
  3. After each round, I will be backing up the hood (on the hard drive and uploading it to the cloud) in order to not lose this challenge again.
  4. If I find a household boring, I may remove them from the rotation or play them for the season and only do a recap post with minimal pictures and just text updates.
