Photo Challenges & Round Objectives [WIP]

[yuichen]

While mostly a genetic experiment, the UYS Breeding Challenge has some additional objectives designed to keep things interesting. Those who play generation after generation, after generation, of a legacy know that it can become horribly redundant. Marry. Impregnate. Go to work. Come home to organic macaroni and cheese. Go to the bathroom before you urinate on the floor. Time for bed; dream about waffles.Wash, rinse, repeat. Meh.

Hopefully the following will keep it fresh and interesting for all players.



Taking cue from PS3's Afrika, the idea is to snap pictures following a list of prompts during gameplay.

Each species has their own list of challenges but you do not have to take them all in one round. Rather, take a minimum of 3 per round rotation, preferably without repeats. The count may be split up between the species and general category.

Please remember the images may be no more than 750x750, not exceeding more than 10 per post.

• Some dogs love everyone. Before sharing the heir, befriend 3 dogs from town.
• Locate 5 gems in one round.
• They say owning a dog is like having 2 kids. Test your sim's patience by producing 2 litters in one round and allow all but one dog to make a mess, be noisy, and a general asshole. Determine the worst of the bunch, and send that one as your heir. Enjoy!
