All done. I've always loved playing artistic Sims. Anybody remember the subway bug in Sims 3 when you played for tips? That was fun while it lasted. Lol.

$426,274

It's good to be back with a new gaming laptop that can handle Sims.  My couple entered week 3 with 608,422.

Intro & Extro Vert ended with $628,878.

I'm really looking forward to reading the recaps - I had a hard time wrapping my head around this one.

Sorry if you were not aware of this rule, but once you create a scoring file and post a score you are finished with the event. From the General Rules...


Participation and Practice
Participating in Tournament events is easy - just pick an event and dive in. Live events and/or events that are soon to go live have a thumbs up topic icon. Practicing before a challenge officially goes live is fine, but once you create your scoring file, that’s it—you have one attempt and cannot create a 2nd scoring file.

This event is now closed.

Grats to Nandarelle on the win. Everyone is now free to share strategy. This was the 3rd event of the season, so for those of you who posted scores in all 3 events so far you have earned a World Ranking...that will be posted shortly.

Actually, this challenge didn't require that much strategy compared to other ones... Right after I read the rules for the first time, I knew that my Introvert will be making Camping Mascots via woodworking, and my Extravert... well, who cares, no matter what she is going to do, she won't even earn 1% of what the Introvert was going to bring. It's just not possible with the way the game is. That's why I mentioned that maybe we should tweak the rules somehow, but they stayed as they were, so I just didn't pay that much attention to the Extravert. She had a Musician career and also earned some royalties by writing songs, and that's it for her. And my Introvert was always busy with making Camping Mascots and selling them on a flea market table with the highest price margin possible. To save time, I created my sims as vampires so they didn't need to sleep, pee and chew food which takes forever. On the other hand, it often prevented my Introvert vampire from being at the flea market table if the day was sunny (and I was too lazy to assemble a roof for him, d'oh).
My big mistake was that I originally planned to sell only the higher valued mascots via the table, and just batch sell the other ones via inventory. I thought that it's better to spend more time crafting rather then selling, but I was wrong. I just didn't do enough practice here beforehand. So that is why I didn't get close to 3 millions, although I totally could... Oh well :D

My strategy was simple.  Both were vampires so they never slept.  The introvert did all the money making, because I suck at the acting and music. 

One of the vampires researched just enough to get the plasma packs which was shared between both so hunger was dealt with that way.  When they needed to recover hygiene, social, or fun, they showered, chatted, or played a computer game. 

Introvert painted using the digital tablet, posted on Plopsy, mailed out what was sold, painted, posted, mailed, rinse and repeat.  They lived in a micro tiny house and the extrovert worked in Entertainment to get him out of the house for awhile most days.  Extrovert mastered Paino, Guitar, Violin, Comedy, and Singing; then I stopped paying attention to him.  Introvert would create 6-7 paintings in queue, then post them on Plopsy.  During the time it took to create the 6-7 paintings, she would have between four and eight items sell, so she would mail them all off.  Then it was back to the tablet for another round.  I was really surprised at how well Plopsy worked for this.  By the end, her masterpieces were selling for ~§25,000 each.

On the last Saturday at about noon, introvert stopped painting and started pulling items off of Plopsy and selling through inventory so that when time was up, all paintings and photos had been sold, one way or another.  They actually stopped about 5am Sunday morning because I was ready to be done.
