The challenge was created by simmer BreeMiles. You can read the sims 4 and sims 3 variation rules here. As with the looser legacy, I made a spinner for the challenge choices for both 3 & 4. As was previously mentioned the contestants started their day with waffles for breakfast and learned that the task of the day would be writing. Everyone was instructed to use the bathroom before going to the computer room. Leopoldo informed the producers, that one of the bathrooms had something blocking it's access. The producers also noted that one of the toilets had become clogged rendering the bathroom unusable. After much hemming and hawing everyone finally took their seat and stayed put in front of a word processor. This time everyone started their task at the same time, while they worked on the writing exercises the producers had the surplus desk removed and adjusted the placement of the bathrooms. Milton and Ricky each finished the first lesson at about the same time, with Jamiee and Amber hot on their heels. The producer's and camera crew watched with a mixture of glee, humility, and worry as the contestants typed for almost 12 hours straight before fatigue and hunger started to kick in. As the hour grew alarming close to midnight they were relieved when everyone started to drift out of the room, Amber being the last one to log off, and therefore win the days points. A decision to replace the desk chairs with un-cushioned ones was quickly made. Amber quickly hurried down the hall to catch up to the rest of the household who were either in the kitchen, or waiting their turn for a bathroom. Everyone was quickly made aware that they would still need to be up at 6 am the next day. Day 2 Scores & Summary
Day 3 The head producer grumbled about the advantages of youth, as everyone hoped out of bed after a little over 4 hours of sleep declaring they were feeling refreshed and ready for anything. So with a nod the production assistant gave the spinner a tug to learn the days challenge. As everyone was stretching and relaxing, the hidden speakers boomed - All contestants will head to the second room on the left to compete in the news reporter challenge. Christin grumbled about the extra wait as Erwin stalled a few minutes before joining everyone in the radio room. Once everyone was in front of their assigned stations the producers provided them with a dummy list of global events to report. Much to the dismay of everyone at the studios, the contestants ran through the list of topics in under a minute and then stood around congratulating each other on a fine job. A technician was sent in to replace all radio stands with lecterns and the contestants were told that they would be redoing the days challenge, and this time they had to provide their own speaking prompts. They spoke for a while, with much hemming and hawing, and then as if by some unheard bell they all stopped at about the same time, frustrated the producers decided that maybe practicing with a mirror would work better. It was agreed that since the producers kept changing the item to work with, due to their dissatisfaction with the results that each person who'd been last to finish from each round would receive 10 points for that day, with the final 10 points going to whomever was the last standing from practicing speech with the mirror. This made Britta happy because it gave her her first 10 points, Amber was happy too because it brought her up to 20 points. Everyone wondered who would get the last 10 points for the day. The production team was happier with the results from practicing with a mirror, as most participants practiced for over 4 hours instead of the short few minutes of the previous activities. Jamiee and Ricky both pushed themselves until a little past 5 and seemed to finish at about the same time, so a tie was called and they were both awarded 10 points for the challenge. As everyone grabbed dinner and used the bathroom they were relieved that they had the next to days free, and that they would get to go out on the town on leisure day. Jamiee said that she might try to unclog the toilets instead of waiting for a repair person to come on leisure day. Britta was the only one who stayed up late that night, while everyone else called it a night early. Day 3 Summary
Day 4 Day four was full of laughter, squeals, and hi-jinx as everyone unwound after three days straight of challenges. Leopoldo tried and failed twice to make his Nana's waffles from scratch, even though there was already waffles ready to eat from the previous day in the fridge, while Ricky failed to program the synthesizer properly and produced bad french toast. Christin told a ghost story, and Britta engaged a few of her housemates in pillow fights. The ladies were caught whispering and giggling over some trivial bit of gossip. By days end Christin and Erwin were best friends, and Jamiee and Amber had developed a casual friendship. As everyone settled in for the night, they were excited to learn that they'd be going to Mick Master's Karaoke bar the next day. (Slide show is 21 pictures.)
