Shared neighborhood - ground rules

What I took it to mean is that each family can use one reward item ONCE. So, if one family chooses the elixir of life, there are five "hits" (drinks) the family can use. Once that's gone, no repurchase of the elixir. Same thing for the smart milk. A family can choose to buy them smart milk, but once the bottles are used up, no repurchase of another set.
At least that's the way I understood it.
Oh, duh. *slaps head*
That makes more sense then, and I don't have a problem with it then.
We could even make it so that they don't get to use their one shot at the item until they reach a goal. Like earning a certain amount or reaching a LTW etc.

I'm going to be the party pooper than and say I don't think I care for it too much. I mean if one family can use the elixir of life as much as they want wouldn't that be kind of odd? Why not just make them vampires?
If they majority of people want it that way though, I'll go along with it.

That is exactly the way I meant it. Thank for explaining. The goal idea is great, nice suggestions Motoki.
I think it would need to be the same with career rewards, no more than 2 can be used in a house.
We are getting somewhere :D

I really like this idea, but.....I a little bit SimPE-phobic. ::) ??? I'm still trying to learn it and haven't been able to do much except change some existing relationships. I don't know anything about the memories. I'd need help with this sort of thing. I'm also suspecting that others that want to play may be in the same boat as me. Maybe someone -coughMotokicough- wouldn't mind actually putting the info in if we provided the details?
Oh I don't mind. Or someone else can do it if they want. Once we get the terrain and all the sims together and figure a basic background story it really only takes one person to put it all together.

I know some people won't like this because it will increase the file size of the download, but at this point I almost feel like we should just decide the plot, characters, what houses are to be used etc and premake the neighborhood in an original setup state like the Maxis ones, then everyone can build on it from there. It doesn't have to be super huge and have loads of lots and playable characters to start with, people can add more later.
I just like the idea that we can presetup relationships like so&so is enemies with such&such and I would really like everyone to have the same set of townies. I know we can use the default pleasantview ones but they are ugly and I am sick of them lol.
I can use neighborhood memory with ease in SimPE so I could help out there

I have SimEnhancer and am happy to help with the setup.
I am still not seeing anything I disagree with...everything sounds fine to me.
As to Monique's computer, the skill is gained at the same rate. That computer does not allow one to cheat, as far as I understand it, but it does allow one more options in skill gaining then the "sit-there-read-a-book" option.
Any money gained from writing articles is proportionate and very reasonable, IMHO, and is great for work from home families.
A suggestion:
A forum for this project. A bb board is not too overhard to setup, from what I understand...does anyone know of a simmer who would let us set up a forum for this on his/her site? Would Pescado help us?
