The Absedy
Alphabet ISBI Challenge
Chapter 1: Here at the Wall

Welcome to the brand new Absedy
Alphabet ISBI Challenge!
Wow, that’s a mouthful. I need to come
up with a nickname. Any suggestions?
Anyway, this is an Alphabet ‘I’m
surrounded by Idiots Challenge’.
Basically I’m going 26 generations, one
for each letter of the alphabet, while only
controlling one sim in the house. The
founder does not count as generation
‘A’. I’ve got a copy of the rules I’m
following on the page for this challenge
on boolprop.
Here’s the usual disclaimer- I did not
write either of the rule sets, I merely
combined two sets of rules that other
people wrote. I take no credit for writing
these challenges.
Okay, now that that’s over with, shall we
meet my founder?
(Stick figure
wave for lack of
a better
picture.)

Hi Laura!
Laura: “Wow, I suddenly exist. I didn’t
exist a second ago. At least, I don’t think
I did. What is existence anyway?”
Ha ha, very funny. I’ve got a real scholar
on my hands. I could have sworn you
were Popularity though.
Laura: “I am.”
No other wise crack for me? Okay
whatever, turn around.

Laura: “Uh, is that where I’m going to be
living?”

Well, uh, yeah. It is.
Laura: “It’s a wall.”
Yes, well, you really only need a wall to
survive, right?

Laura: “Your kidding right? And I have to
pee outdoors?”
Hey, the wall blocks you from the street.
Just be glad I invested the simoles to get
you an actual cubicle shower.
Laura: “Aren’t founders supposed to
start out with at least a room? Where am
I supposed to sleep?”
Well, um… I wanted the extra points for
starting on a giant lot. If there is going to
be 26 generations on this lot I need the
extra graveyard space. Er, um…
So about that bed, uh, I’ll figure
something out. K? If you get a job that
would be great. Or, you know, marry the
first guy that crosses the sidewalk.

Laura: “Job it is.”
Heh, I thought so.
Laura: “Jobs can be changed. Husbands
aren’t nearly that easy.”
I agree. There are too many cheats
involved in killing off a sim. Er, I mean,
um, oh hey look over there, what a
lovely pile of dirt.
Laura: “You say something?”
Nope, nothing.

Well that never happens. Lifetime want
career in the first newspaper. Law
Enforcement.
Laura: “Hm. I wonder if I should clean
that up. It’s not like it’s inside my house.
Well, my house doesn’t have and inside
in the first place.”
Passive aggressive doesn’t look good on
you.

First man flesh appears in the welcome
wagon!
Whatcha think?
Laura: “I got a job, remember? I fulfilled
our deal.”
Yes, well, the sooner you get married the
sooner I’ll be able to give you a room.
Laura: “Whatever, just not this one.”
Man Flesh: “Who’re you talking to?”

Laura: “Oh hey, there’s the matchmaker,
you think she will help?”
You have 10 simoles to your name.
She’ll probably give you the cow mascot.
And I do not need an unplayable cow
mascot running around. Besides, I
thought you didn’t want to get married.
Laura: “I never said I didn’t want to get
married, just that I didn’t want to rush
into it.”
Laura, you are a single adult sim who is
also a challenge founder. Rushing into it
is kind of the name of the game.

Well?
Laura: “Eh. I still feel like I can do better.”
Okay, yeah, whatever. It’s not like you
need to find the guy today. Though I wish you
would. I’m not sure where you’re sleeping tonight.
Laura: “What was that?”
Nothing.

Well, last resort. I was hoping to not
have to do this, but now that it’s night it
is clear that you aren’t getting a hubby
today. So dig away.
Laura: “Funny how you working on
getting me a bed is me doing all the
work.”
You need to get better at telling jokes. I
don’t see a punchline.

Laura: “Eek water!”
I guess I’ll have to add digging to the list
of things you need to get better at.

Laura: “Thanks for moping my dirt
random person.”
Random Person: “Your welcome.”
…

See, there! A bed!
…
Where’s my thank you?
Laura: “Why do I need to thank the
person who did nothing?”
Ouch, that hurts.
Laura: “Goodnight.”
*sniff*

Good morning! Ready to find a husband
today?
Laura: “If I ignore you, will you stop
talking?”
Not likely.

I found the perfect husband for you!
Laura: “Haha, very funny.”

Three more rejects, one of which was
Gooby Gilscarbo, and she’s off to her
first day of work.
Oh hey, that handprint on the windshield
is way bigger than any sim hand. What’s
up with that?
Laura: “Yay, I get peace and quiet at
work.”

Bills. A whopping 78 simoles.
Laura: “Do you ever sleep?”

Oh, look, see he’s perfect.
Laura: “I’m going to regret asking this,
but how so?”
He’s old, so he’ll die off in about a week
or two, and then you get his money and
not have to deal with him.
Laura: “Feeling morbid today?:
Old: “No, why do you ask?”
Laura: “I was talking to the controller.”
Old: “Who?”

Another three rejects today. I guess I’ll
have to take you to a community lot
tomorrow.
Laura: “I’m starting to get the impression
that I’m the only one who can hear you.”
I’m getting that same impression, too.
Weird, huh?

Okay, downtown. Let the man hunt
begin. Oh I think that guy behind you is
checking you out.
Laura: “Do I even want to look?”
Depends on what you find attractive. Do
you like green?

Angry Blond Guy: “Are you going to buy
something or what?”
Uh, better not tell him you’re broke.
Laura: “Uh, I’m not broke?”
*smack forehead* Smooth. Very
Smooth.

Green: “Ha!”
Laura: “Ow!”
I’m really not having much success
with finding you a husband, am I?

Oh hey, that’s one of the guys you met on
your grand adventure downtown. He was
just deemed not important enough to
warrant a picture.

Laura: “I’m just not sure I’m all that in to
him. Picking a husband is a lot of
pressure.”
Yeah yeah. Ignore that squiffy nosed guy
behind you and make another call. Like
angry grocer guy. You never did check
him out.

Save me. She thinks Komei is hot. Only if
they’re a three bolter. Only.

Two bolts. That’s more than she’s given
anyone else.
…
But those genetics, they will never breed
out. Gah! If I can’t find anyone with two
bolts by the end of the day I’ll do it.
Unique genetics aren’t bad.
I’m going to regret this…

Speed dating ensued and then, bless my
heart I’m saved! A two bolter!

Joe: “Hi, I’m Joe Carr.”
Your barely even better! *grumpy face*

Laura: “Why am I here? I’ve already
found two guys that are two bolters.”
The night isn’t over yet. And at this point
Komei has the edge since at least he
has a recessive hair. I like introducing
recessives into the line early on.

Look who’s back to gloat.
Komei: “Gloat, gloat, and gloat.”

Laura: “It’s morning, can I go home
now?”
That flameing toilet really gets me.
Laura: “Have you decided who you will
let me marry yet? I’m tired of community
lot hopping.”
Fine. I’ll let you have Komei. I have 25
generations to breed it out, and genetic
diversity isn’t a bad thing.
But Komei? Ug… I’m already regretting
this.

Err well, um. I guess I am a slave driver.
*cough cough*
Oh hey, convenient person!

No one cheated here. Nope, nada.
I mean really, I’m not going to let my
challenge die before it has even really
begun. That would be lame.
And one of the rule sets I pulled from to
make mine said explicitly that cheats
were allowed. So there.
Yes I am fully aware that I am a cheater
and just trying to justify my actions.
*sigh*

Laura: “Hugs for saving me!”
Angry Grocer: “Uh, no.”
Laura: “But you saved me.”
Angry Grocer: “Doesn’t mean I want you
to touch me.”
See, normally after a life saving
experience I would say marry that dude,
but he’s clearly not interested. At least
Komei will treat you right. Even if he
burns my eyes.

Laura: “Hey, Komei, want to go on a
date?”
*shudder*

Blech. Why would you want to kiss that?
Laura: “Do you mind?”
Komei: “Hmm? Oh right, you hear
voices.”

Seriously? You had your lifetime want
job!
Laura: “Be quiet.”
Oh, were you too busy daydreaming
about Komei to work properly?
Laura: “Shut it.”

Now you really are going to have to get
married to get a real house. But, from
the looks of things, that isn’t going to be
too difficult.
Laura: “I really don’t want to deal with
you right now.”

Laura: “The controller finally gave in and
let me marry you, so let’s lock this in
before she changes her mind.”
Haha, very funny.

And now it’s official.
What am I thinking? Komei? Really?
Komei: “You’re great, even though you
think there’s this supreme being that
talks to and controls you. Clearly that’s
not real.”
Ha, watch what you say. I have author
play toys that have just been asking me
to use them.
Laura: “He can’t hear you, remember?”
Oh yeah. I miss sims actually being able
to hear my threats…

Laura: “Would you look at that. I’ve got a
house now. For once I didn’t have to do
all the work.”
Well, if you want to be technical, you
kind of did, since it was you getting
married that made it so you could afford
it. Really it’s nothing special. It’s just a
bunch of boxes. And it’s just going to
keep growing more boxes until you have
enough for an actual nice house.
Laura: “Did I ask for a speech?”

This seems like a good place to end the
chapter. I have now added the first non-
playable sim to the challenge, and built
the first thing that can actually be called
a house on the lot. The next slide is a
point’s summary, feel free to ignore it if
you like.

Points Summary Points
Xtreme Start +5
My complete failure of taking care of a sim that
I had control of.
- 10 good
simmer points.
Current Point Total 5
Current Good Simmer Points -10
Okay, well that’s that I guess. Nothing really exciting happening pointwise. I can’t decide if
I’m excited or terrified to see Komei spawn… But, I promise, no more stick figures.
Maybe. Until then, happy simming!
