Ooh! I didn't think that it would be approved yet.

I hope you all enjoy the contest! Special Thanks to both HaughtySims and Cinamun who both looked over my idea.

Just a few notes:
Saying that they sent out multiple versions of the device is just my way of saying you can use whatever you want as a time travel device

Also, with exception of the first round every round is going to deal with making changes within your applicants own life.

This post is reserved for Contestants and Prizes

You are not dumb. It might just be me. I'll see if I can make it more clear when I am less sleepy.

Names: Daniel and Jake Hollow
Ages:Daniel-24 Jake-25
Hometown-Crystal Lake, Leaf Island
Short Bio- Daniel-Jake and I met during college, and fell straight in love. We graduated last year, and Jake proposed. That summer, I found out I was pregnant, but three months later, I went to get some new maternity clothes with some friends, and we got into a wreck. The baby didn't make it, and I always wish I could go back and just walk to the store instead of driving.

Daniel

And Jake

Jake-Daniel and I had been out in the yard and fell asleep on the bench, when we woke up, there was a big box with a time machine and the letter inside. Daniel got all freaked out when she saw it.
Do you think it is chance you got this letter, or fate?
Daniel-Definatly fate. The big guy must think I deserve a second chance with the baby as well.

Thank you Ciste for joining Cistie. Marie looks great! I like your second picture. Very nice.

Thanks! I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with!

Ooooh, I adore time travel, I will definitely be entering. Before I write up my app however, will the rounds be multiple trips into the past or is it all one trip?

Secondly, how long will the rounds be?

It will be one trip into the past, however if your sim finds what he/she did made things worse, then you may have a reset button which will put things back to the way they were.

Rounds (if all goes well) will be five days in length

so its kinda like back to the future? lol

I apologize for not updating. This thread wasn't bolded like it usually is when there are new replies. Great entries everyone!

In high school she met a man named Walter, and love bloomed between them.

Shot of Sim finding the package/letter:

Do you think it is chance that you got this letter, or fate?: Chance. Why me, a lady in a dull marraige mooning over her high school sweetheart, as opposed to someone who really needed it? Like the President of the United States? Or someone who could ahve prevented loss of life? It was chance, that I know. But chances are good that I'll take this random occurence and get to live a perfect life!

I hope its OK that shes using first person... and if anything is wrong with that, let me know, and I'll fix it lickety split!

Put me on as an ER judge Gameshark!

Its perfect Furry, thank you for signing up.

Elise looks wonderful.

Thank you Haughty for signing up!

Name: formerly Corrigan, then DeathShadow, now Alvaric Hunter

Age: 287

Short Bio: When the Demon lord Malkoth rose to power one of the first realms to fall was the faerie realm of Aspir. They were given a choice of serving as assassins in the armies of Death, or serving as sacrifices on the altar. At first the missions were more of the sort "We need someone expendable to weaken the opposing forces before the main troops arrive. Take as many attempts as you need, but if the mission is not completed by the time the main force arrives, and you are still alive, you would probably rather not be."
After several successes against difficult odds he finally earned the name DeathShadow. He never failed. When Malkoth was finally defeated DeathShadow quickly realized that anyone who had been one of Malkoth's most loyal and deadly servants was likely to be executed on the spot if he were ever caught. With nothing left to lose he dug out a tome of forbidden magic from the ruins of his master's fortress and cast a spell which sent him adrift through the cosmos.

Hometown: Currently residing in Sedina.

Head Shot:



When a mysterious package arrived he was at first suspicious. But his people are known for their curiousity, so he finally took special precautions in case it was a trap and opened it. Now he is intrigued.




Do you think it was Chance or Fate that you got this?

Fate? What is that? Actions that do not involve a being's Will are random, and therefore Chance. Actions which do involve a being's Will are Choice. So all that happens is a blend of Chance and Choice. There is no such thing as Fate.


(I am hoping to have time for this contest, but I may not. I often go for several days without being able to get into my game.)

Been bit by the contest bug so I'm thinking of joining. A few questions though.

When does the application round end? How long is first round gonna take?
We can link to images but is there a preferred imagesize? Forum rules says 650x550 I know, but I'd like to go bigger. So how big is too big?

:howdy:

Applications will continue until I have 10. I would like to start Wednesday, but who knows.

If I don't have enough applicants I'll probably continue the apps into Round One

I'ld prefer a maximum of 650x550, but I do not remember the picture rules for this forum. If I remember correctly, the size and number rule does no apply here.

If you are going to use a bigger picture, please link it because it annoys me when the page is stretched out.

I'll be a judge if you need one. I've also got a sim to donate as a prize- I'll PM with details.

Thank you aimsme!

You're welcome! Will PM about the prize donation tomorrow- my computer's gone spazzy at the mo.
