Dare #33: Prompts!
Celebrating our 4th year, August's challenge will be very different.
This time I'll be giving everyone who wants to particle a set of 3 sims prompts and 3 random word promts to work with.
READ the rules carefully before replying to the post asking for your prompts!! (Under cut)
Any doubt, don't hesitate to ask here, (but if you want your prompts at the same time please specify)
You can do anything you want with the prompts. Makeovers, stories, drabbles (with or without pictures), text-less scenes (even one-picture scenes), use them as inspiration to build or makeover a lot, even drawings, or anything else you may think of.
You don't have to use all the word/sims prompts at once or at all (you can use them all together if you want, of course), but each entry must use at least one sim and one word. However the sim as such does NOT have to be included, it can be use as inspiration alone.
For example, if you have Chester Gieke and one of your words is blue, you don't have to give Chester a blue makeover, or even include him in you entry. You can write about Chester liking blue (without picts), or build a lot inspired by Chester Gieke using lots of blue on it. Or create a room for Chester with a blue bedding, etc. In other words, it doesn't matter how much blue or how much Chester you include in your entry, as long as there's something about the sim/s and the chosen word/s on it.
You can use any CC and do as many entries as you want. There are no other restrictions for this challenge (only no plastic surgery on sim faces)
TO PARTICIPATE YOU MUST LEAVE A COMMENT ON THIS POST (saying anything on the tone of "give me prompts" or "I want to participate") And choose at least one neighborhood (sims 2 only, but universities included) so I can narrow down the sims to give you.
If you choose one hood I'll give you all 3 sims from that hood, or you can pick up to three different hoods in which case I'll give you one sim from each hood. If you don't mind just say "any hood" (or any combination of the above. for example if you say Pleasantview+any hood I'll give you one or two sims from PV and a random sim). BIN-Sims will include sims without a hood and downtown (sims from Pets, BV and the Tricou/Neengia, because using "Downtown" only for them is not worthy imo). Townies and/or NPCs WON'T be included on the prompts. (there are just way too many and It'll drive me crazy to list them all, sorry)
If you want the chance to use a particular sim, mention it in your reply, but you can only do this with one sim (same for a family/household, tho in that case I'd pick one random member from that family, but it can't be all three sims from the same family). The other two will be based on you hood preference (or random of you say "any"), but remember you don't have to use all the sims either. (so you could just use the one you mentioned, and ignore the rest)
The Word prompts will be picked randomly based on different prompts lists I have found over the internet, and a few sims concept/situations I added to them. (using random.org, if you wonder. Same as the sims. I won't be choosing them myself)
You can ask for prompts at any time during August, but try to do it early. If you ask for them, you are not obigated to do an entry, so don't worry if by the end of the month you just couldn't do it. If you don't like your prompts, you can ask for a new set (either sims or words or both) at any time of the month, but only once please. (Same if you feel super inspired an want even more prompts to work with.)
You can start posting your entries for DARE 33 on Wednesday (1th), and DARE 32 will be running until this Friday (3th)
And, Jic, I'll try to respond to the prompts as fast as I can, but don't worry if I take a couple of days. I'm starting this early precisely to have time for that. ;)
