THE RULES :
THE RULES :
*********************************
* Tip" most neighborhoods have areas with benches, grills, and fishing areas. Use these to aid in your survival. (Update/Correction): The word "lot" was supposed to be "neighborhood", and has now been corrected in the rules etc. - For example: "you are not allowed to leave the lot", was supposed to read "you are not allowed to leave the neighborhood".)
- Lifespan must be set to "normal" (default).
- Aging must be on.
- They must start as an Young Adult.
* You may use the resetSim cheat if your Sim gets "stuck" in an interaction or somewhere around town

* No phone (Sims use their phone to browse the internet, play games etc., so if you see this action it must be cancel immediately. (side note: If you have a mod to stop the action, that's o.k, and it will be the only mod allowed in this challenge. Here's one: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=536411 )
* You may not stay over at friends house, but you can still try to make some friends since you are able to visit!

- you have saved 20,000 simoleons
- you must max out the fishing skill
- as long as its before your Sim dies
---> Understanding "Fish In Your Inventory" - Simply think of the fish in your inventory as a symbol/representation telling you when cooking on the grill is allowed (or not). It really isn't specifically meaning cooking fish. It just gives (or takes away) permission to grill any type of "grill-able" food, depending on having, or not having, fish left in your inventory.
(Please keep in mind, since this a challenge (not actually part of the game), and no rules can be set in the actual game, this kind of thing has to be done, to compensate, in order for the challenge to work properly.) VERY IMPORTANT: As New Expansion Packs, Updates, Etc. Are Released, These Rules May Make Less Sense Due To The Changes, Additions, Or Subtractions Made To The Game. Due To This Fact, You'll Need To Rely More And More On Common Sense To Help Guide What Should And Shouldn't Be Allowed or Not Allowed In This Challenge In Order To Keep In Line With The General Spirit Of The Challenge.
