#Bachelor challenge

[flotheory]

Some bloopers from Norton's bachelor challenge 🤡

You could spot Fiorella arguing with almost every female crossing her path

I laughed as this is all I saw, but I know she was just beating up this girl

She even ended up her friendly meeting with Norton to go "talk" to this passenger.

Of course, her being enemies with Catherine was fun to watch whenever they were at the same place more than 2 seconds

Funny enough it was all just staring at each other with anger, I never saw them talking

Catherine was very...intense. This poor lady was just talking to Norton, and she autonomously slapped her and beat her up 👀

Also, on her first day on board the cruise captain drowned in his private pool and she was so happy (I didn't save)

Pretty sure she killed that one girl at the bar !

... and she killed Norton as he was joining Fiorella for their friendly meeting 😂 (I didn't save)

To finish, one night Fiorella appeared out of nowhere to watch Norton sleep, c-r-e-e-p-y. Let's say she got the wrong cabin haha

I am proud to announce Eloise Coleman, by @fruitysimsy, as the winner of the Love On The Ranch challenge! With Albane Dubois by @spillgrand coming in close second.

-----------------------------------

After revealing the winning contestant to Asher, here is what he had to say:

Asher: I had high hopes for Eloise. I feel like we really hit it off when we first met. Though I had pretty good compatibility with the others, I felt very drawn to her. It also kinda helps that she has a tremendous love for animals. I think my biggest goal besides finding a soulmate, was to find someone who loves Tulip as much as I do; and I think El is the perfect match for the both of us.

Interviewer: El? You've created a nickname for her already?

Asher: *chuckles* How could I not? I feel like I've grown pretty close to her to call her by a nickname, y'know.

Interviewer: Well, now that Eloise has been declared the winner, when are you going to propose?

Asher: *smiles* I plan on proposing to her as soon as we land in Tartosa. There’s a beautiful beach there, and I decided to have everything, including dinner, set up there.

Interviewer: Dinner? *giggles* You don't strike me as the cooking type.

Asher: Haha, very funny. Yes, unfortunately, I never learned to cook. My dad was always away and my mom passed during childbirth. It helps knowing my soon to be fiance will be able to help me out with that *laughs*

Interviewer: How do you feel about being married and sharing your space with someone else?

Asher: I'm a little nervous, but also excited. I've spent most of my life alone, so it's all I'm used to. I feel like a change in environment and lifestyle would be the perfect chance for a new start in life. Yes, I know I have Tulip, but she's too big to cuddle with *laughs*. The loneliness gets suffocating, but I feel like Eloise is my opportunity to finally breathe.

Interviewer: That is very sweet of you.

------------------------------------

Stay tuned for Eloise and Asher's engagement post + wedding invitation announcement soon! Congrats again to the winning contestant :) And thank you to those who participated.

Sims and Sensibility: A Mini BC

This one goes out to all those period drama loving people like myself. I will be taking 5 Sims only, you are free to reserve a spot, for a mini dramatic bc. I will be using mods but every interaction is gameplay based and each Sim chosen will end up with a respective partner. There's going to be love, drama, and everything in between.

Catherine (Cat) has been sent to live in Henford for the cold season with her two closest siblings Marianne and Dominic.

1 bachelor/bachelorette, aka any gender and sexuality

Human Sims only!!

Entry Sim can be with a family, but only one Sim is needed for the BC

Maxis match hair ONLY, any other cc is fine (I'm Maxis Mix)

No sliders, presets are ok but might look distorted, and eyes either need to be facepaint or in the skin detail/occult eye (NSB has some eyes in that category!)

1-2 everyday outfits, 1-2 formal (one town ball, other big fancy ball), 1-2 cold outfits only are needed

3-5 traits (cc traits are fine) included with one negative trait for added *drama*

A detailed backstory with likes/dislikes, personality, desires, etc. Please also include if the Sims' family is rich/poor/etc

Submission date ends 11/20

For inspo with good outfits there's cc by sifix, @happylifesims @linzlu (their cc is reuploaded), @anachrosims @joliebean @gilded-ghosts @peebsplays @simstomaggie

[kirsicca]

Pack you bags, book your trip and TAKE a HIKE with Frankie Shirey!

Does your sim need to get away from it all? Are they maybe trying to get over their failed marriage (like our main man here), or forget a relationship that shouldn't have happened? Maybe they're running from their tragic past, or seeking a cleansing experience to cure their raging alcoholism! Or maybe they just hecking love nature, or need a way to finish their frog collections in an organized environment. Whatever the reason, BACKPACKING ACROSS SIMNATION promises to bring together total strangers in rudimentary accommodations, where we all are forced to face the harsh yet freeing simplicity of camping.

MAX 7 PARTICIPANTS 🏕️ 🧭 No eliminations, we're all in this 'til the end 🧭 Romantic goal not guaranteed nor required, the challenge will go with the flow! Main focus on storytelling and building relationships and experiences!

• any gender, young adult, adult or elder • human only • rich backstory encouraged, family members/pets/household also welcome (they won't be part of the challenge, but they're free to roam to world) • can have skills, any level you want • please add likes and dislikes as much as you want • no alpha hair, clothes can be maxis mix • can have multiple outfits per category, but keep in mind that we're camping in the wilderness!

I use Wicked Whims, Lumpinou's Relationship & Pregnancy Overhaul Collection, Basemental drugs, so sim can have traits and other features based on them. (Such as wicked attributes, thoughts on kids etc.) Sliders and presets are fine! I have my own defaults so please don't include any override cc though!

Deadline for entries is the end of October, or until there's enough backpackers. Tag #takeahikechallenge and @kirsicca

Welcome along on this wonderful journey!

Alejandro Flores for @akitasimblr's Mad About Dodo BC

Traits: Cheerful, Goofball, Bro

Alejandro Flores is originally from Selvadorada.

He loves the beach, surfing, and sandwiches.

He's a sweet guy- very golden retriever coded.

The thing about Ale is that when people first meet him they think he's amazingly chill and wise but his close friends all know he is really a space cadet and pretty clueless.

He's looking for love...Or a new friend. Maybe just an excuse to go surfing in Sulani. Actually, he's looking for his wallet. He has no idea where he left it.

A New Contestant Stands Before the Ranch

Let me introduce you to Albane, the contestant I created for @snderist 's bachelor challenge.

Left blind after a gardening accident, Albane was left to struggle with a low self-esteem and an instable future. Managing to stay strong and continue her career as a caterer, she is now searching for the one that will accept her whole... even if a piece of her is now missing.

I hope she'll get a chance to be in the contest !

You can read all about her below:

As soon as she could remeber, Albane was always gifted for gardenning. Since her early childhood years, the young girl spent countless hours in the garden of the house she shared with her family, observing and tending to the flowers. This passion for gardening was passed down to her by her mother, Simone, a rather well known botanist that tought her how to take care of the many flowers that populated her garden. But one particular plant would change Albane's destiny forever. When her daughter reached thé age of fourteen, Simone thought that she could safly introduce Albane to the cowplant in the back of the garden. Sadly, things did not go as planned. When it saw the young girl approch, the cowplant lost it's calm and attacked, leaving the girl dangerously injured. After being urgently taken into the nearest hospital, Albane woke up after multiple surgeries to be greeted by the voices of her relatives through complete, pure and frightening darkness. The accident had left her blinded and without any hope of being able to see again. Albane had to learn everything again, from walking to doing basic tasks. Gardening wasn't impossible to adapt to her blindness, but it took a painfully long time. Left wondering how to live her life with such a burden, Albane didn't really consider possible things such as dating. Her blindness often tried the patience of anyone outside of her family, so much so that her everyday job had bean a miracle to get. How could someone bare it enough to date her. But an anoucement she heard on the radio changed her mind. A dating show? She had Heard about some in the past, but never thought about it seriously. Maybe it would be a good introduction to dating. As the anoucement ended, she picked up her phone and registered. Sure, she wasn't really experienced in that domaine, but, like her mother said, better late than never.

When her mother described to her a picture of Asher, something inside of seemed to awake, something that she had never felt before. A rancher ? She dreamed many times of having someone close to nature for herself. Could he be the one ? She was willing to fight for it, even if it meant changing.

So much athletic prowess...

[blvckentropy]

Starting off hot for our Red Team with the beautiful, Kierra Wright @invisiblequeen

Words from our host, she was really feeling Richie

Happy to say, they were both eager to see each other

Though their attractive scale says different (but over here basic is not a bad thing!)

They each shared in some heartfelt jokes to break the ice

Richie complained about the cloudy weather (same!)

Had a little chat before parting ways

Let's see how everything goes with these two on....

psssst.....there might one more spot left 🤐 [you didn't hear that from me tho]

[minimooberry]

                              •MALLORY BLACK•

Mal is 25 years old and had always lived in Willow Creek until she moved out as as a Young Adult to San Myshuno to start her ‘city girl’ life. Emphasis on the quotation marks because, despite her fashion sense, the only thing Mallory really wants in life is to have a loving partner and happy ending. She literally cannot handle heartbreak (see: her first boyfriend in high school and the first girlfriend she had in the city).

She never really stopped watching kid shows since she was constantly babysitting either her baby cousins or helping her friends babysit their siblings, so occasionally she’ll swallow her pride and turn on an episode of Miraculous Ladybug or Winx Club.

Being raised by her aunt and uncle, Mariam and Marcus, because of her parents’ messy relationship, she was always taught that you should think through who you committed to and is staying hesitantly optimistic about this new experience ;)

Aspiration: Big Happy Family

Traits: Goofball, Clumsy, Geek, Jealous, Childish

Likes: Orange, Green, Pink, Retro Music, Hip-hop, Nicknames

Dislikes: Blue, Yellow, Spooky Music, Americana Music, Writing, Mixology, Gardening, Liars

Career: Space Cadet

Hobbies: Rocket Science, Programming, Guitar

Sexuality: Chronically Bisexual

[flotheory]

As he was about to talk to Chloé, Catherine autonomously interfeered to flirt with Norton and he agreed.

He immediately rolled the wish to play a video game with Chloé and proceeded to go talk to Fiorella.

After a friendly nod she received a text so he returned to chat with Chloé. She was having a blast on the dancefloor haha !

Welcome to my First Bachelor Challenge

After his first run as a contestant on The Bachelorette, Abraham is back as the Bachelor on his journey for love continues! It's been 2 years since then and not much in his life has changed. He's a model for Plume Magazine and lives in Sulani with his fellow models. Before he became a model, he was a fisherman along with his father and older brother to keep up the family fishing business while his mother and younger sister run the shop.

"I'm looking for someone to challenge me and to share life with. I would hope they wouldn’t mind me being gone for a week or two at a time for modeling jobs for the time being if they weren't able to come along. Later on though in life, if my looks fail me since they likely aren’t forever, I would like to do things like travel together and maybe explore the lands of Salvadorada or climb Mt. Komorebi. I would love to pick up my old hobbies again since I haven’t had time while modeling. I love to make things with my hands and I used to sell the drinks, candles, and trinkets I made in my family’s shop. I can’t wait to meet you. May this journey we take be one that changes us all for the better!"

Traits: Loves Outdoors - Adventurous - Maker

More info about Abe:

27 years old

He/Him

He honestly doesn't know what his exact sexuality is

He's been learning guitar on the side from fellow model, Jae-Hwan, and they practice together when they get the chance

He enjoys fishing and free diving. They relax him and he feels more at one with nature. Sometimes, he'll play with the dolphins and catch some extra fish to feed them. Sometimes, sharks too, but he knows he needs to do it rarely to avoid attacks

He's the middle child and since he's always been busy fishing with his father and older brother, usually the cooking is left up to his mother and younger sister so he doesn't have much experience in the kitchen. He's always willing to learn

He can occasionally get a bit reckless on his adventures and may need someone who can reel him back in

Even though he's all about his adventures, this island boy knows how to relax and take it slow too

Submission Rules:

7 sims will be chosen as contestants

All genders allowed

Young adult to adults accepted, please include age and pronouns for your sim

Write up a background for your sim and share some details! I love hearing about other's characters and it helps give an idea of who they are

Please include some information about their fashion style so I can give extra/situational outfits as needed that are in character

Give your sim some likes and dislikes

They are free to have skills leveled up but to level 5 max (unless it makes sense for it to be higher due to their background)

I don't care what traits or aspirations are, just no romantic trait/aspirations or alluring/beguiling trait. Feel free to even throw in some negative traits if you'd like

No occults will be accepted to keep things simpler now that there's a few occults in the game. I only have aliens, vampires, and mermaids so I'd feel bad to exclude spellcasters and werewolves

When making your sim, please keep in mind my list below of packs I have/don't have (see below the cut)

CC is accepted. If you've seen my sims, I play maxis match/mix and with some alpha thrown in. So I don't really care what style of sims are in, but I would say just not super heavily alpha sims. I do encourage skin overlays (skin details)

No default eyes/eye colors/replacements. I don't like base game eyes either so please use facepaint eyes or I can always choose some that match your sim.

Please choose 1 outfit for each category, keeping in mind which packs I don't have.

If chosen, I will message you for the files. Please include all cc and tray files for that sim

Tag me in your post and use the tag #Naka's Bachelor Challenge so I can see your entries (they will be liked by my main blog)

Submission deadline is August 23rd 2023

If there's not enough entries I may extend or cancel the bc

"Hey, is this thing on? I'm Sidney Whitby, and this is my audition for the Bachelorette!"

@moocha-muses has such a fun bachelorette challenge going, and even though I'm running my medieval hood right now, I want to make a Sim for it!

Sidney's a Popularity sim, a Libra, and an alternative/historical fashion nerd. He's transmasc (he/they) and bi. Personality points and TNTs under the cut.

His lifetime want is to Own Five Top-Level Businesses - he's got a moderately successful costume shop, but he'd like to set up his shingle as a shoemaker. And as a haberdasher. And as a corsetier, and an armoursmith, and and and you get the idea. The boy's full of grand plans that he flits from, second to second. He also flits from fashion style to fashion style- he's most fond of wa lolita right now, but he's just as likely to show up in a doublet and cape or in a Regency suit.

Sidney's Absent-Minded, Artistic, Nurturing, a Cat Person, and a Natural-Born Salesman. If there was a Manic Pixie Dream Boy trait, he'd be that too.

He really admires that Lorelei wants to become a social worker- he spent a little bit of time in foster care after his single mom was arrested for a crime she didn't commit. Everything worked out in the end, but he's seen how bad things can get and he admires anyone who wants to make them better. He also enjoys cats, coffee, and good music, and it seems like their tastes line up.

Faint heart never won fair lady, and Sidney has never had a faint heart!

[honeysylvan]

would anyone be interested if I did an occult sims bachelor/ette challenge?

all occults and genders would be welcome!
