The Baby-Sitters Club Challenge
Goal: To end up with a BSC with all ten members, with physical description, family situations and family names matching those প্রদত্ত in the books.
EPs required: None, although it can add to the fun.
Hacks required: The InSiminator is strongly suggested.
Rules:
- Physical descriptions are deemed to match those of the বই only if they are genetically correct. There can be no modifications through hair coloration, অথবা contact lenses.
- Offspring must be genetically related to their parents, unless specified in the books.
- No cheats are allowed, except when specified (see LTW)
- Family situations do not correspond to a moment in time. This means that আপনি cannot kill অথবা send away Sims to keep younger siblings who match. Once a Sim is born, he is part of the family, end of story.
- Once আপনি make a match, it remains frozen, and আপনি can no longer play with the family.
- Your Sims may only marry townies, downtownies, college students অথবা Sims from পূর্ববর্তি generations who didn’t match. They cannot marry ফ্রোজেন families, except in the case of the Schafers and Spiers.
- No reload without saving, except in the case of a crash and/or bug (i.e., stuck sim).
- আপনি may use any rewards that will help আপনি with your quest along the way.
- আপনি may adopt Sims IF আপনি already know a generation is doomed.
- আপনি may not use hacks that allow আপনি to determine the sex of a baby, except when specified (see LTW).
- আপনি may count twins as being of different ages, and decide which comes first.
- In Abby’s case, she must be born a twin with Anna.
- আপনি cannot change a family’s surname if আপনি come up with a suitable combination for another family. In other words, if a combination is issue দ্বারা the Thomas family, then it must follow the combination for this family only. (You may, however, give your family the right names once it is frozen. This is suggested, as it will prevent আপনি from ending up with a plethora of Mallorys, for instance.)
- The surname can be transmitted from either partner, UNLESS, in a terrible coincidence, your sim marries a townie whose name corresponds to a surname found in the books. In that case, the townie’s name is invalid.
- আপনি can, however, multiply your attempts at forming the right combination দ্বারা playing multiple descendants from one founder. For instance, if your পাইক combination failed at the fourth child, then আপনি can play these four children to get the right combination.
- If two failed combinations from different families marry each other, than the only valid surname is the one gained দ্বারা the spouse. For example: a Ramsey and a Bruno marry each other, on Ramsey’s lot. The family becomes a Ramsey family, and আপনি cannot attempt to get the Bruno combination.
- Killing sims is allowed.
- আপনি may decide on the personality points and aspiration of each of your founders, and the aspiration for the descendants.
- আপনি must play the Chance cards.
How it works
It basically works as any legacy challenge. Create অথবা rename a neighborhood and call it Stoneybrook. Start with a founder for each of the families. Each founder must find a spouse and try to make the right combination with the right name. Thus, for instance, the founder for the Spier family must find a spouse, and hope that the first baby is a little girl. The Spier mother must die afterwards. The Spier baby must have brown eyes and brown hair.
Once আপনি achieve the right combination, the family becomes frozen. ফ্রোজেন means that আপনি should make everything possible to ensure that your family doesn’t change. However, আপনি may continue playing to earn bonus points. আপনি may সরানো on to a different family. Once আপনি have the 10 BSC members and their family, your Stoneybrook is complete, and you’ve finished the challenge.

Lifetime Wants
Once one of your Sims achieves a lifetime want (i.e., constant platinum mood), আপনি may use the InSiminator to have a baby with the sex of your choice. However, this must be achieved before the birth of the child.
আপনি may only use this ONCE per generation. This means that, if one partner achieves his অথবা her LTW and the other partner achieves it thereafter, the সেকেন্ড LTW does not count.
If, however, the same sim achieves TWO lifetime wants, then আপনি may use the InSiminator again. The same rules apply the সেকেন্ড time.
Alternatively, the LTW may allow আপনি to consider one the offspring an illegitimate child, and disregard him অথবা her from the family altogether. আপনি may get rid of this Sim and not count him/her in the family tree. However, আপনি may not use this in combination with the InSiminator.
SCORE:
Multiply the number of generations it took আপনি to achieve the right combination (founder = generation 1) দ্বারা the coefficient of difficulty associated with each family. The harder it is to get a specific combination, the lower the coefficient will be.
Coefficients:
Thomas: 2
Spier: 9
Kishi: 3
McGill: 10
Schafer: 4
Stevenson: 5
Pike:1
Ramsey: 7
Bruno: 8
Kilbourne: 6
Thus, if আপনি manage to freeze the Kilbourne in 5 generations, then আপনি will earn 30 points (5 generations x coefficient of 6)
