Builders Needed to Help with the next Forum Dynasty

[Joria]

@Joria, it's never too late. We haven't posted the rules yet (don't know if I can reveal the date, so I'll just say it's coming soon). And I, for one, would be delighted to have a couple of your houses to choose from. As I recall from Union Cove, they were quite nice.

Well, thank you for the compliment.  I built 27 UC places so hope they were nice.  Some were way too big.

I don't quite understand.  I'm already playing a dynasty so how can there be a new dynasty?  It ain't broke so why fix it?  Is it more a challenge for points or something?

Do you want all starter houses or a mix of price range?  Do you want to fill in the different towns?  I can do that for sure. lol   Do you want them built on dynasty size lots?  (that's what I've done) 

I put one up today. It's called Basic Box1 and I hashtagged it with my Origin ID, Joria and with carlsguiderdc and a few others.  No moo, no cc, no mods (ever), basic stuff.  I did enlarge decorative items and landscape things.  Take a look and let me know if this is what you mean.  Really, really basic box.

Are you missing any particular lot sizes in those that are available?

Good question, Dellena. I'll look at what's there and see if we are.

Joria, we're preparing a second dynasty challenge. You may recall that Metro (along with others) came out with 5 for TS3. I'll take a look at your "basic box," but I'm pretty sure it will be fine. You'll probably get a better idea when we post the rules.

Is this still ongoing or already done? I already did a couple of starter homes and uploaded with hashtag carlsguiderdc. But I am still interested in making a few more if it's still needed.

It's still ongoing -- we'll be posting the challenge itself next week.

Thank goodness, I'm desperate to get my teeth into something!

I'll let the cat out of the bag and state that official Dynasty files can start Dec 3 when the event goes live, but everyone will have two weeks to look the rules over, ask questions, plan strategy, etc. It's an awesome one - like nothing we have ever done before.

I'm excited about this!  Got a few more ideas for houses.  Can we use the debug cheat?  Not for things you'd have to earn in a career but like for adding a pond or something.

Joria, I just checked the rules for the challenge. Since we're not allowing the debug cheat for players, we probably shouldn't allow it for builders either. Sorry.

[Joria]

No problem, that's just fair.  Reduces temptation too.

I've uploaded a cute little modern starter. No MOO, no enlarged items, just a basic build with a good bed and better-than-cheapest plumbing and kitchen. It has a TV, chess table, 2 garden planters, and easel. $16K and change. It should be easily expandable. I built it on a 3X3 lot, but it should fit on smaller lots with no problem.

I wanna bump this up as i really am a bad builder and you all do a wonderfull job at it.

I also wanna say, you dont need to build starters, build what you think fits for the challenge.
I surely need a mansion or 5

[MarianT]

I agree with Lena. And our aliens need alien-type houses to choose from, too.
