Look What's in Store for You!

[Metropolis Man]

Rules Modification:

Create two Young Adult Sims in CAS from scratch.

- Cannot use gallery downloaded sims.
- Cannot use cloned/twin gallery downloaded sims.
- Cannot use saved sims from your library.
- Cannot use saved sims clone/twin from your library.

We want players to start with fresh sims.  All the downloaded sims and saved sims might have advantages transfer over, and I included cloned/twin sims in case the hidden attributes get transfer over too.  We want everyone to start on the same level.

And this is one of those things that needs to be in the General Rules. I will be clarifying that momentarily. It's one of those things I kind of assumed everyone got and took for granted, but I guess not.

@Nutella, Thanks! I didn't realize the game would make the lot a retail one for you.

[Nutella]

Rules Modification:

Added these two to the rules.
Inventions: this is the only item you are allowed to make at work and sell at retail store.
Serums: you must unlock Chemistry Lab Set from work, then place the set on retail lot to make serums.

Explanation:
Inventions:  Since inventions can only be made at work (science career), we are allowing this item to be made at work and sell at retail store.
Serums: You cannot make serums using the chemistry set from work, you have to unlock them through career promotions.  After you get the chemistry set unlock, you can place the free set at retail lot and make your serums to sell.

Changes, Changes, Changes.

-- Create two Young Adult Human Sims in CAS from scratch.

You know what this means right?  No aliens allowed.

[ClayMask]

Do we have to skip all work goals related to making serums, using the cloning machine, or transforming with the Simray even if we don't plan on selling the items?

[Nutella]

If it is on your work requirement screen, you are allow to complete it. 

If it is not on your work requirement screen, you are not allowed to use cloning machine, simray gun -- even if you don't plan to sell them.

[ClayMask]

Okay, thanks for the quick response.

Hi, two questions before I begin: do I need to start counting the 6 weeks from the moment I start playing, or can I play for a few days and then open the store and start counting? Also, do I have to spent the 10000$ building the store before I open it, or can I use only what I need?

[MarianT]

You start counting the 6 weeks from when you start playing, and you don't have to use all the $10,000 on building your store.

[effie97]

Thank you very much!

Well, Rich and Golda Mongers have finished their retail career with retail funds of 381,742.  Enjoyed the chance to play with retail; hadn't done so before.

[Metropolis Man]

Grats on being the first one done, Ginj.

[Nutella]

Nice job Ginj.  Glad you enjoy playing retail, the point of this challenge is to make people play certain aspects of the game which they don't normally play. 

[sdhoey]

Well Nylah and Forrest Closed their store and retired with $173,812.
