The Simazing Race: 5 Worlds, 5 Challenges

[mariposa1127]

I thought it said we have to use Newcrest?

Yes, your Sim does have to visit Willow Creek, Oasis Springs, and Newcrest. The other 2 are up to you, or you can repeat if you don't have any other worlds.

Can one of your worlds (to complete one of the challenges) be one your living in during the 12 hour break?

[mariposa1127]

You have to have the sound on. The winner says "Meckchate."

I won't be able to even try this one in that case. My Windows 10 PC doesn't have sound from what I can tell.

I noticed that the winner of the chess game thought bubble has a thumbs up sign and the looser has a thumbs down at the end of the game.

Yes. As for the thought bubbles -- I think the sound is more accurate, and I think Deklitch found a solution.

I did find a solution, I had my headphones plugged in and on my head for the chess part and plugged in but off my head for the rest of the challenge. Thanks Marian for that pointer re using the headphones.

8 scores posted already and we're just 4 days in. Marian, I think you hit it out of the park with this challenge idea.

Yep. It’s a keeper, for sure. Great job, Marian!

Thanks everyone! I was afraid it would be dull, but I had a lot of fun with it, too.

@MarianT I've always loved racing challenges and the variety in this one added an extra fun element to it, thanks for coming up with such a great challenge, I had a blast with this one! 

Verily Swift completed all her challenges in 1,515 minutes.

Hehe, see what I did with the name there? ^^ I wanted to race through this challenge because the next challenge has got me running scared! 

Great scores from everyone so far, loving it!

The team just decided that Story Mode simply gives too much of an advantage, so it's banned. If you used that feature and posted your score already, then you will need to redo your effort. Thanks.

• In CAS (no Story Mode), create 1 Young Adult human Sim.

Hi all! I just made my first attempt at the challenge and came up over 6100 minutes.  I accidentally sent my Sim to a world where there were no musical instruments or microphones in public areas to do the Tips part, so that didn't help. I'll plan a little better and see if I can get a different result next time. It was a fun challenge though!
