NOTES
Not all packs are required for downloading! Simply substitute any missing components on the sim.
All cc included! Even my defaults! If you happen to have any conflicting defaults that you prefer, simply locate the default file that comes upon download and delete it.
All of them have outfits, skills, careers, likes and dislikes, lifestyles, etc etc. Everything I thought would fit the characters best, you can check it all out for yourselves! (Some have more than others (ᵕ—ᴗ—)ʱªʱª ) you can change these to suit yourself.
on the gallery too, but that doesn't include cc, so they'll definitely look a bit off.
I love the idea Brandi Broke and Dina Caliente dating, because this relationship is also a way for them to heal from fucked-up relationships they had with men before.
Brandi starts dating Skip as a teen. But according to TS3 Skip is only 7 days younger than Brandi's parents. In the game Bob and Betty are teens and Skip is a child. And Brandi is obviously not even planned at this point. So you can interpret this information as an adult Skip getting in the relationship with much younger Brandi (or at least kissing her from what we can see in her memories).
Even if we consider TS3 as an alternative timeline, Brandi is only 7 days into her adult life stage and Dustin is already a teen. Was he born when she still was a teenager? Maybe Brandi and Skip were just two stupid teenagers, but the situation is still not ideal.
Michael Bachelor being creepy with Dina is not even a headcanon. We know that he is much older than Dina. At the beginning of the game, he's already died of old age! And Dina is 28 days away from being an elder, she's really young. According to Dina's memories, she had her first kiss with Michael when she was a teen.
It makes sense to me how quickly Dina and Brandi became best friends. They've experienced similar traumatic events in their lives.
But that's just my interpretation of the pieces of data EAxis left us with. Definitely not trying to start drama because of pixel people :)
He has traveled around the worlds and collected many memories and keepsakes. He made many friends along the way while he did both mundane and epic heroic things. And in every town there was another lover (or two) to be left behind.
You all know we're talking about Icarus Ibarra, Iker for friends (and he has many - one cheerful introduction and you're BFFs). His recent adventures made him realise that it might be time to settle down. And that doesn't mean he won't be going from world to world anymore. He will, he'd just prefer to do it with that one special someone by his side.
And what better way than to find that someone in style?
Watcher Studios Inc presents...
SUBMISSIONS ARE OPEN
Deadline: 21 September 2024
More info under the cut.
We probably don't really need to introduce our bachelor, but here's a quick recap:
Full name: Icarus Nicodemo Ibarra Reyes

Colour - Blue, Green, Yellow
Music - Alternative, Latin, Latin Pop, METAL, Singer Songwriter
We're not sharing compatibility likes/dislikes or turn-on/turn-offs (TOTOs), because that would take the fun out of the challenge.
In case you're not entirely up to speed on Iker's previous adventures, you can find them here.
Still interested? Good.
If you want to apply, these are the essentials:
Read the rest of this post carefully.
If you still want to enter your Sim after reading, then comment that you want to submit a sim.
I've made another post that further specifies some choices you have. I'm asking you to prepare this before submitting your Sim. That will make it easier for me to play it out when it comes up in my game. I know it looks like a lot, but all you need to do is make a Sim, dress them nicely and make a few choices. Then I'll do the hard work.
This is The Grand Scheme. Save the link, it'll be handy when you create your Sim. And even if you do not intend to submit a contestant, I don't mind sharing my nefarious plans ;)
There's a maximum of 12 participants (and a minimum of 7 or it'll mess up the schedule), first come, first served. One of these spots has been reserved for @zosa95. Because, if I hadn't submitted Iker's sister Neia to Branson's Bachelor Challenge, I would not have had Iker. It seemed only fair to do this in return.
Practical considerations:
No CC (minor exceptions: x and x)
I have all packs except Batuu. As for CAS Kits, I only have Simtimates and Moonlight Chic.
You will need Growing Together and Lovestruck for the personality likes and TOTOs. If you do not have these packs, you can still participate. You just need to let me know how you want to fill these and I can set them for you once your Sim is in my game.
1. Requirements:
Age: Young adult (give a 'real life' age if you like, anything from 18 to 30 is acceptable).
Gender: Male or Female.
Pronouns: No custom pronouns that are intended to be silly (such as 'His Evil Highness' or 'Her Colourful Ladyship' or whatever you would use to refer to your favourite pet (or Sim)). This is basically to prevent me from making mistakes while posting. Too many different pronouns and it's gonna go wrong at some point. Please use something short (and easy to remember).
Sexual Orientation: Must be romantically attracted to and interested in woohoo with men (whatever else you check, is your choice).
Romantic Boundaries: Set them as you like, Iker's player trait should overrule it (if not, I'll set everything to no jealousy).
Occult: Human preferred. No Werewolves, Vampires or Aliens (Iker is still processing the Moonwood adventure, which also made him hate vampires. After StrangerVille, though unfounded, aliens are bit of a touchy subject too).
Traits: Bro and Unflirty are not allowed (there's a rule about bros, and unflirty will just make it incredibly hard for your Sim).
Likes/dislikes:
No more than 2 music likes (because those still dominate wants).
Decor and Fashion are optional (i.e.: Dream Home Decorator and High School Years are not required).
Conversation Topics and Sim Characteristics are required to be set.
TOTOs:
Way of Life and Characteristics are required to be set.
Romance styles: 2 turn ons and 1 turn off, the other 2 will be neutral (I'll do this for Iker too, for a more interesting experience).
Hair Colour: Black hair turn on is advised.
Outfit colour/Fashion categories are optional.
Your Sim can be CAS created or born in game, skills are allowed, there won't be skill based challenges. They can have additional self-discovery traits if you've played them.
However: the romance skill and hidden woohoo skill are banned (Iker doesn't have those either, yet) and charisma is capped off at lvl 3.
Fame is not allowed - I'll just keep all Sims out of the spotlight.
2. Outfits:
There will be lots of themed parties, outings and dates, so I've got an entire outfit scheme set up. To give you a chance to express your Sim's personality through their outfit choices (and get creative with NoCC CAS).
First, look up the outfits on The Grand Scheme. Then choose one of the following:
Easy Street: Set your Sim's standard oufit for each category, copy it to all listed slots. Then adjust the two mandatory second outfits.
The Middle Road: Do as above, adjust any other oufits you like.
All the Way: Set all oufits as requested.
Know that not all of these outfits will be used if your Sim is eliminated early on. But hey, at least you'll get a nice NoCC lookbook from it!
Another thing to keep in mind (though entirely optional), the show (mostly) takes place in Ciudad Enamorada and Oasis Springs in Spring and Summer. So, big fluffy sweaters might look a bit out of place.
If you accidentally use an item from a Kit that I do not have, I will try to replace it with something similar.
If you do not set outfits for the themed activities, I will dress your Sim as I see fit.
3. Dates:
For three of the dates, there's a choice to be made by the contestant. Look this up in The Grand Scheme and let me know through DM what your Sim would choose for their perfect date(s).
4. One Final Question:
In case your Sim is eliminated, should they:
be returned to you (I'll save your Sim after elimination and upload the tray files and send you a private link);
live on in my save file;
be deleted;
remain in limbo forever (I'll store the tray files somewhere)?
Not answering this question defaults in the last option.
I know this is a lot. I hope you are not deterred by it. I just want to do something interesting with the new date system. And then this massive plan formed and now I'm stuck with it.
Anyway you have at least until 21 September 2024 to submit your Sim. If you need more time, or I'm not ready with the preparations, that date may move to somewhere in September.
Let me know in the comments and/or through DM if you want to submit a Sim. I'll put your name on the list.
If I've added your name to the list and you no longer can/want to submit a Sim, let me know. There might be someone else who can take your place.
If you have any additional questions, do let me know.
(if you think I've made any weird typos, let me know as well. I've checked the post a several times, but something might still have slipped).
Thanks for reading and I hope you're as excited about this as I am!
Okay, Okay... I know I said Caldarus was next on the voice list but I'm throwing out a surprise part 2 on March instead 😂😂 His opening line here is wild 😂 Please let me know what y'all think!!
they invited over jamie, chris, zelda, and leighton... and leighton also brought his mom along? but she turned out to be a party animal! 😆
chris and leighton got along... sadly they aren't making out in the 3rd pic they were telling jokes and having a proper giggle next to the hot dogs. talk about a sausage party.
jamie sensed that hank was getting a little too friendly with her while pauline was literally right there so she went outside to chill before any mess began. unbothered, unfazed, unproblematic 💅
