Spectrum 100 Baby Challenge
« on: April 10, 2018, 02:08:06 AM »
Hey there, friends! So this is my third attempt at a 100 baby challenge, the first being unwittingly against the rules(that I hadn't bothered reading), and the second losing enjoyment quickly for some reason. This time around, I played ahead to make sure it will be a success, and so far I've really enjoyed it!



This time around, we being with Rose Spectrum, my original founder and the mother of my second founder, Scarlett.
But now she has brown hair instead of blonde :P
Her traits are Creative, Family-Oriented, Loves the Outdoors!
Her children will all have names based around the color pink, and each generation following will have a new theme.

Only pictures in this run will be CAS headshots at each life state of the kids, and a weekly shot of the entire family. Otherwise, I unfortunately get overwhelmed. I really wanted to document my journey though, so this is the best I've got!

Rules:
- Randomizing toddler trait by using RNG
- Randomizing child, teen, and YA traits & aspirations using http://www.simslegacychallenge.com/sims-4-legacy-challenge-random-trait-generator/
- Babies cannot be aged up until the game prompts that it's their birthday(not almost)
- They must have toddler skills all at level 3 to age up from toddlers
- They must have maxed A in elementary and childhood aspiration completed to age up from children
- They must have maxed A in high school, 2 level of aspiration completed(or as high possible for those with "Become and Adult" and "Join X Career" in the second level, as those will be completed immediately upon aging up), a romantic partner, and maxed character values to age up as teens
- Upon aging up to YAs, they will join a career (of my choosing) and marry their romantic partner in order to move out
- Rose will be a stay-at-home mom, using painting and gardening to earn money
- Each pregnancy will be by a different father, otherwise it won't be counted
- Only a maid and gardener will be hired, along with the occasional repairperson

Week One
« Reply #1 on: April 10, 2018, 02:19:44 AM »
I decided to go a bit unique with the first donor, and used Jacques Villareal.
He's gonna kick the bucket soon anyways, might as well give him a memorable finish.


Traits: Insane, Childish, Genius

Thus, the first... THREE! babies were born!
They were born Week One, early Thursday morning.
All boys, Flamingo, Fandango, and Fuchsia.

Next donor was Mr. Victor Feng, who was my last donor on my failed challenge.
Figured this was the best way to honor him ;)


Traits: Materialistic, Perfectionist, Genius

During that pregnancy, the boys aged up!



The random number generator blessed them with the traits Silly, Charmer, and Wild chronologically.
For now they look pretty similar, but like their baby selves reflected Fuchsia has slightly darker skin.

Next up, Magenta was Born Week One, Sunday evening.
An adorable little girl to bookend a sea of boys and the week!



And with that, the week ends!
Very concise and boring, I know, but it's mostly to document my experience.
Also, this first week was finished at least a week ago in real time so I don't have the greatest memory for anecdotes.
Hopefully there will be more in the future!

A lovely beginning! Little boys with matching violet eyes and matching cat sweaters! I love them! Very excited to see how things go.

Shewolf, this state was absolutely terrible ::)
I forgot how terrible that many kids could be, especially while mom was trying to make money!
We barely made it!

Francesca, delighted to see you back again!
I was quite shocked by the eyes, I've never had them randomly show up before!
Gives them some unique charm :)

Also, if anyone reading wants to send me some of their favorite male sims(or impregnating females), that would be great!
I probably won't use them until next generation, but there aren't very many young sims in my game(despite MCC's best effort), so I'll probably need them for the heir!

If you really want them to be used with Rose, just let me know and I'll make an exception :)

I have a few gentlemen that may suite, either for Rose or others.  If you look up Shewolf13 on Origin, or #carlsguide or #Wolfie, you'll see some.  One my particular favorites is Zaiden Hailama.  He is from the Baby Boomer Challenge.  He does have skills and what not, just to let ya know.

Week Two and Three
« Reply #8 on: April 19, 2018, 04:02:41 AM »


We begin week two with yet another father joining the club, Mortimer Goth.
Traits: Bookworm, Outgoing, Creative



During an uneventful few days, Magenta aged up to a toddler and became inquisitive!
She is literally all her mom here... I mean, does this kid even slightly resemble Victor Feng??
She doesn't even look the slightest bit Chinese! Genetics ::)



The chaos began late Thursday evening, with the birth of Miss Coral, and three crazy young boys maxing out their skills and aging up two days early!
From left to right is Flamingo, the Genius/Whiz Kid, Fandango the Active/Social Butterfly, and Fuchsia the Creative/Social Butterfly.
I love that you can finally see their unique looks starting to shine through, definitely no identicals here!



Another day, another baby daddy. Welcome to the collection, Geoffrey Landgraab!
Traits: Family-Oriented, Outgoing, Good



We ended the week with my life becoming terrible.
Meet the absolutely adorable Coral! She's... fussy. Sigh. Thanks, RNG.
But she certainly looks like a Goth, which is always fun!

And with that, week two comes to an end!



Only for Week Three to begin!



Monday begins an eventful day, with Magenta aging up into a child on Monday Morning, one day early! Later in the evening, a boy is born to Geoff and Rose, named Rouge.
This sweet girl is now someone who Loves the Outdoors and... a Social Butterfly.
How many of my kids are gonna be social butterflies?! C'mon, generator!!
She looks a bit more like Victor, but not much... This could be interesting :-[



Final baby daddy until someone moves out, Mr. Marcus Flex!
Traits: Non-Commital, Active, Bro



The rest of the week is lax for a while, other than Rouge aging up.
He's my favorite toddler yet, thanks to that angelic trait. No more tantrums ;)



Friday begins with the youngest girl becoming a child!
Coral aged up that morning, one day early.
She became a bookworm and... goodness gracious, a Social Butterfly!
SAVE ME, RNG GODS!!!
The excitement continues that afternoon with the final birth of the household, Mr. Amaranth!
The triplets all completed childhood aspirations, with Flamingo getting the ball rolling on Friday evening, Fandango finishing up on Saturday afternoon, and Fuchsia bringing up the rear that evening.



Unfortunately, the game glitched and I wasn't paying attention to my records, so Amaranth was aged up early.
FORTUNATELY we get to see this cute face sooner! He's a silly little fella :)



With that, we've got a full household and have made it through Week Three!
Will there be more Social Butterflies? Find out next update!

Oh man, all those social butterflies XD I'd be driven mad lol  Wow, those genetics are amazing.  They are all so cute, yet so different!  Can't wait to see how they do ^^

Ugh! Social Butterfly is so labor-intensive! What baby mama has time for that? I don't mind the fussy toddler trait too much, though. As long as you give them everything they want, they're happy as clams. :)
Congrats on the full household! Now Rose can get a bit of a breather, thank goodness!
