The Sims 4 Bachelor/Bachelorette Challenge: Rules.
Main Objective: Through a series of eliminations find The Bachelor/Bachelorette ONE True LOVE!
Steps to Begin the Challenge:
1: Create your Bachelor/Bachelorette: Get creative, they can be anything you want them to be! Old, Young, Pretty, Ugly, Rich, Poor. The beauty of this challenge is the rules are very relaxed, and you can truly let your creativity go here! Give them any traits you like, BUT The Romantic Trait. IS REQUIRED.
If you are doing this in LP form. Then keep the traits a secret for now!
2: Create your contestants: In The Sims 4, you can have 8 sims per household. So this means you have 7 spaces left! If you are doing this as a personal challenge. Create 7 very diverse sims if you wish. Get creative with your traits and sims personality.
If you are doing this in LP form. This is a great time to let your supporters JOIN IN on the fun, allow them to create 7 singles for your new lp!!
3. Pick Your Pad: Money isn't a issue. Usually a Bachelor/Bachelorette is pretty well off. Make sure when selecting a home you have enough space for all of your sims to live in existence with one another comfortably.
NEED FUNDS? Use the Motherlode cheat by pressing the CTRL ALT C buttons and entering Motherlode, and press enter. Wa-la! 50,000 simoleons a pop baby!!
Let's Begin, But FIRST: The general concept of this challenge as mentioned previously is simple. The Bachelor/Bachelorette is trying to find love in the 7 sims currently present.
ELIMINATIONS: will take place every 3RD day or 3RD episode, at 3 pm sharp. (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED) After the Welcome Home introductions. The elimination will be simple. Before the elimination have the bachelor/bachelorette you will have a certian interaction with each single on the given elimination day before you can continue with eliminations.
The woman/man with the least compatibilty with the Bachelor/Bachelorette will be forced to leave the house at once on elimination day. Once the sim has left, no further contact is allowed. Via the Bachelor/Bachelorette or remaining contestants.
In the event of a tie. Check to see which sim has the best relationship with the rest of the sims in the household. OR is filming a LP.. Post a poll and elimate said Sim before the next part of the Challenge.
BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS: In order to build relationships, you will need to go on dates. You can do group outings or if your really feeling a sim go on a one on one. Its up to you how you go about it, your goal during these dates is to get to know the sims better, no repeat one on one dates with the same sim unless you have given everyone else who remains in the household a one on one.
IN THE HOUSE: Interactions between sims are allowed, as long as they are fair and non romantic! (UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED) Sims are free to do as they please.
GROUP DATES/ OUTINGS: The Bachelor/Bachelorette and contestants can interact with each other. Only on Friendly terms. Contestants can interact with each other, even Getting the other contestants in bad "moods" can help the other sims gain the advantage. Also don't be afraid to get a little dirty! Sometimes you gotta take whats yours!
NO forced romantic interactions, IF It happens anonymously. You MUST allow it to happen. Can cause jealously.
ONE ON ONE DATES: Try to go on a one on one with each sim if possible.
IF you can't choose PICK the sim with the lowest relationship to the host.
Keep the dates fresh, maybe a stroll in the park. Grab a drink at the local night club, go for a workout? Attend the spa?

Jenn! This is amazing!! I can't wait to do this myself!!!
ReplyDeleteit is my fav so far!
DeleteMy game was so weird. One girl hooked up with an entertainer. 2 ended up being gay for eachother. One of them just rejected the bachlors heart so the only contest I had was between 2 girls (One got eliminated)
DeleteThats what is happening with my contestants their are two girls that are romantically involved she i eliminate them?
Deleteme too !!!!!!!!! * loves sims to have babies btw*
DeleteIn mine two remained my bachelors good friends, no fight happens until like day 15, one started dating my bachelors best friend but my bachelor ended up with the girl he couldn't stop thinking about
DeleteJenn, you are one hell of a simmer! What dedication! You seriously are AMAZING! I LOVE the RULE, you made it so professional and it all makes perfect sense and isn't complicated. You obviously put A LOT of though into this and I'm SO excited to watch AND be apart of the FIRST SEASON! Thank you again SO much for giving my Imogen Owens a chance at LOVE with Nolan & his son ;)... You are a badass, don't ever forget that, Gorgeous! Love you so much, as a VERY talented Simmer (builder,decorator & cas maker) AND as a WOMAN! You are such an inspiration!!! Love ya Jenn, and to all contestants," MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!" haha.. including my piano playing, homemaker, & family loving sim, Imogen Owens... LOVE -Marguerite (LadyWhitwham) xxx
ReplyDeleteJenn didn't create the challenge, someone else called GirlySimming on youtube did it. It's not right Jenn got the credit just because she has more subscribers than GirlySimming. :( :/
ReplyDeleteHey Autum! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I did go and check out her page. With all fairness, I did create my version of the challenge, down to the way I play and all the rules. I did not copy or get inspiration from no one else. I had no knowledge as admitted before, if anyone had done this prior to. To be fair there are no written rules on this challenge as of yet, until me, until now. So no on has actually claimed, this challenge. The name of the challenge may be the same...but the way we play is entirely different. I have no issue giving credit where its due, but I was no inspired by girlysimming to do this challenge. If I had, followed someone elses challenge then of course, I'd give credit thus, I wouldn't of been creating a challenge. All due respect there are many versions of different challenges out there, and this is mine. So I still stand by me creating this version of the challenge. Thank you :)
Delete:)
DeleteOMGGGG JEN! This is EVERYTHING and more!!! I love that you put so much time & thought into the structure, rules, interactions & activities for each day! You are the BEST! I can't wait to get into the nitty gritty! This is gonna be SOOOO AMAZING!!!! Looking forward to it ALL! I already have a couple favorites but we'll see!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat if you havent bought the deluxe pack?
ReplyDeleteI am having just as much setting it up as I am sure I will doing it .. had a online vote competition for the bachelor LOL .. almost 1,000 votes in 3 round (400+ in the last elimination) way to much fun! Just introduced the girls LOL The groups are really getting into it! Next we unveil the house and then it is GO time ... ty for the fun!!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get your house from in the challenge
ReplyDeleteHey, Jenn, listen, I'm in day 5 and the bachelor already wants to ask one of the contestants to be his girlfriend, and the option isn't there, I'd have to have him do other romantic interactions before that option showed. Is it okay?? Should I do it?? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHow do you ask a sim to leave the house???
ReplyDeleteYou dont. You move them out manually,
DeleteI want to do this challenge <3

ReplyDeleteI'm on my last 2 sims! It's so hard because my bacheorette CAN NOT choose! Plus there was some drama with locking the bachelors down in the basement to make it more dramatic and make the sim who locked them down there win. But he were eliminated when the bachelorette found out. I love how this goes and I might spend a little time with the new family before I choose the new bachelorette/bachelor. Most likely a bachelor to make it more catty.😂😂
ReplyDeletewhat do you do if you don't have the black and white bash? (I don't have the option to)
ReplyDeleteI would just think a house party would do, I don't have it either, it comes with the deluxe pack, but I guess Jenn should really be the one telling you this
DeleteCan someone please tell me what to do if one the contestants slaps the bachelorette!!
ReplyDeleteIt'll bring down their relationship a bit, but it most likely won't matter until the next elimination. :)
DeleteI had done my own version of the Bachelor and two of the ladies ended up together and my Bachelor had woohooed with two of the girls without my knowledge and got them both pregnant. My response was: (O.O) (OoO) (-_-) "YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO DO THAT!!!!"
ReplyDeleteHaha! I can't wait to try this again! I'm doing the Legacy challenge currently and am jotting down the different challenges and such!
how do i download this??
ReplyDeleteYou have to do that on computer and you can download sims 4 on origin
DeleteHello, want to know how to login into hotmail.com sign in and Hotmail login are you excited to read this article.

ReplyDeleteMy bachelor can't date a contestant. The contestant can't initiate the date either. When they ask the other sim out they just get an embarrassed moodlet instead. Do I just skip them with the speed dating?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteI would have them flirt or give romantic gifts a bit to raise their romantic relationship. I had to do that to get the option to pop up at all, so it might affect the chances of success.
DeleteWhat if one of the contestants are romantic with another contestant should they be the one leaving during elimination?
ReplyDeleteA router is a box that goes between the DSL or cable modem and all the devices connected to the Internet. The 192.168.0.1 router basically shares the internet signal between the multiple devices.
ReplyDeleteI want to know this too pls
ReplyDeleteHi, Jenn, my friends and I really like the challenge. I translated the rules into Chinese, and post the translated rules on my blog: http://atonenoheya.blogspot.com/2019/09/sims4-bachelorbachelorette-challenge.html
ReplyDeleteWe have much fun with the challenge.
thank you.
By the way, yesterday someone ask me that is it okay to add a pet in the bachelor's house before the challenge end.
I thought I should ask for your advice.
Thanks.
Can we all still be friends at the end?
ReplyDeletePlease help. Even though my sim is flirty, she hasn't flirt with anyone yet. The date option doesn't show up. What do I do? They are all good friends but none shows up for romance!
ReplyDeleteHave them flirt during speed dating! Or you could tweak the rules a bit and have her flirt in the house.
Deletethis is a weird question, but what do you do if a contestant dies in the middle of the challenge..?
ReplyDeleteErm... I'd say try to plead or get them back to life, maybe have them compete as a ghost... But the easiest thing to do would be to count them as eliminated.
DeleteMaybe replace them. Make it part of the show.
DeleteIs this a mod, or do you do everything by yourself. Like kick people out that need to be eliminated, or do I need to download something that gives me the options?
ReplyDeleteYou do everything yourself.
DeleteI have had the music on thinking it was sims 4 for like 30 mins :D
ReplyDeleteLOVE this challenge! Once this is over, ima keep playing the family and use the legacy for games and challenges and such. I feel like a lot of times other people have families that they sometimes just have challenges and do them with their already have families and I think its really cool and have FOMO about all the stuff people are doing on sims 4 lol!!
ReplyDeleteMe, after spending hours creating each contestant, their backstory, their ambitions, their families, and their friends:
ReplyDeleteWait, I actually have to eliminate these guys?!?!
