The Trophy Room — The Most Rewarding Sims Challenge Yet!

[Metropolis Man]

The Trophy Room — The Most Rewarding Sims Challenge Yet

Goal
Sure it’s nice to have a million simoleans to be able to open up Buy Mode and purchase anything you want for your Simmies. But, objects you earn via a career, nice shiny medals and ribbons awarded for hard work, Happiness Reward objects purchased from fulfilling all those wishes — those have special meaning — they belong in your Trophy Room! And the more objects you have, the better.

General Challenge Rules
The General Challenge Rules always apply. If applicable, exceptions will be noted below.

Specific Challenge Rules

• Create 1 Young Adult Sim.
• You may add 1 Household member only after each Household member has placed their first Trophy Room object without help from another Household member.
• You are allowed only 3 vacations. Only one Sim is allowed on any vacation — length of each vacation is up to you.
• Objects in the Trophy Room must be placed — i.e. on a wall, on a stand, on the ground.
• Objects in the Trophy Room cannot be purchased from Buy Mode or a register.
• Objects in the Trophy Room need to be bonafide rewards and not things you have made or the result of chance.
• Objects in the Trophy Room must all be unique with different names.
• The Trophy Room itself need not be a “room” with 4 walls. Feel free to design it however you wish. Just make sure to only have qualifying obects in/near your Trophy Room.
• Qualifying Trophy Room objects:
• Different Skill Certificates (1 Fishing and 1 Handiness is fine, but 2 Fishing skill certificates from 2 different Sims is not allowed);
• Career Rewards (Fox Trophy, Squad car, Culinary fridge, Film career Simmies, etc.);
• Different named Service Awards (Trophies/Ribbons/Medals — A Hero Medal and a Hero Trophy are fine — different named things, but a Hero Medal from the Firefighter Profession and a Hero Medal from the Ghosthunter Profession is not allowed because they're still the same named object.);
• Horse racing/jumping trophies;
• All school-related rewards earned after the game begins;
• Tomb rewards ("Tomb of..." rewards + Pangu's Axe);
• Lifetime Happiness objects (Sim and/or Pet) that can be placed (i.e. Moodlet Manager and/or a Food Replicator);
• Normal plants and fishes DO NOT count. However, any plants grown from a completed op are fine;
• Celebrity Freebies DO NOT count;
• Wedding Presents DO NOT count;
• Anything from the Culinary career or Criminal career taken home as part of a normal day's work (food/art objects) DOES NOT count. However, art objects attained from reaching key criminal career levels DO count.
• This challenge ends at Week 4, Day 7, 11:59 PM.

Scoring
This one’s about as simple as they get. Just total up all the objects (a simple count, and ignore value) in your Trophy Room. Make sure every object in your trophy room does indeed qualify for scoring. Reread what qualifies above. Please be cautious about asking me "Metro, does x type of object qualify for the Trophy Room?" because you may give others ideas they had not thought of. So, PM me if you're unsure.

After receiving a PM I added the following:

• Normal plants and fishes DO NOT count. However, any plants grown from a completed op are fine;

[Metropolis Man]

MarianT brought to my attention the need for another category of items, so I have edited the rules to add —

• All school-related rewards;

And there are quite a few. So, do your homework and discover them yourselves, So long as the object is placeable and is unique with a different name than anything else, you're fine. Still in doubt? PM me.

[VampirePlasma]

We have to add other Sims or can we do it with just one?

[Metropolis Man]

We have to add other Sims or can we do it with just one?

Your choice. Adding to the household just means you need to adhere to the restriction in the ruleset of adding to the Trophy Room.

[Sarah_n07]

What about pets? Are we allowed to adopt one at any time?

[Metropolis Man]

What about pets? Are we allowed to adopt one at any time?

By adopting a pet you are adding to the household, so the following rule applies...

• You may add 1 Household member only after each Household member has placed their first Trophy Room object without help from another Household member.

[Sarah_n07]

I know that, Metro. What I'm asking is if we can adopt a pet that can not bring in more trophy room objects. ( i.e we've purchased all available pet lifetime rewards ) Can we still adopt one?

[Metropolis Man]

I know that, Metro. What I'm asking is if we can adopt a pet that can not bring in more trophy room objects. ( i.e we've purchased all available pet lifetime rewards ) Can we still adopt one?

Well, it depends. You need to ask yourself if all household members have already been responsible for adding to the Trophy Room, and thus opening up a new household member slot.

Can I just doublecheck - the goal here is to get the most valuable trophy room, right?

[Sportsfan]

Can I just doublecheck - the goal here is to get the most valuable trophy room, right?

I do believe that is what this says:

Just total up all the objects in your Trophy Room

[MarianT]

My impression is that value doesn't count; it's just the number of trophies.

[Sportsfan]

My impression is that value doesn't count; it's just the number of trophies.

Hmm… now it seems like that. Metro?

[Metropolis Man]

Yeah, it's total number, guys. Not value.

This looks great! Can't wait to start it! Now to finish the first two challenges...
