Default The Rainbow Challenge
This was posted in the TS3 Challenges forum, but I thought it should be here as well.

From LiveJournal:

What’s this all about then The Rainbow Challenge is a legacy challenge aimed at those who do not like following the general legacy rules. No restrictions on aspiration, money or even a point system here. It’s all about just getting creative and having fun. That said, there are a few rules…

The Rules

1. Each generation must correspond to a specific colour on the colour wheel. We only used primary and secondary colours for this to keep it simple. The generation allocation is as follows:

2. You can choose how many generations you would like to attempt, there are 3 possibilities:
- 3 Generations (the primary colours: yellow, red & blue)
- 8 Generations (the primary and secondary colours)
- 10 Generations (bonus black and white rounds for those who don’t want to let go yet)

3. You can choose any shade of a particular color, from dark to screaming bright to pastel. As long as the colour is identifiable, it’s A-okay with us.

4. The allocated colour must be obvious in each generation, but how you implement that is completely up to you. Anything goes, showing the colour through hair, make up, wardrobe, home décor, etc. So long as we can tell what colour generation you are on immediately, it’s all good.

5. The family surname should be the word “rainbow” in your native language (or if English is your native language, you can use the mirrored version of “Wobniar”). Also allowed is anything synonymous with rainbows in your part of the world (something from a legend or story, maybe a word you made up as a kid, whatever floats your boat).

6. Offspring for each generation should be named something that corresponds to the allocated colour for that generation. For example, for gen 3 (red), you could name your children Scarlet, Crimson, Heat, Strawberry, Blood-Count, etc. Have fun with it, feel free to go as crazy as you like.

7. We take no responsibility for any retina scarring that may occur due to overexposure to colour.

8. You can rearrange the rainbow we posted, and start with red and end with yellow if you so please.

Here's what the rules don't cover: so when the heir marries, is the guy supposed to be Mr. Red or Mr. Blue? Or it doesn't matter?

Sounds like fun! I'd love to do a legacy, but I tend to use MaxMotives a lot and suchnot, so this challenge is like a themed legacy! I'll try that right now! :lovestruc

Didn't work for me...don't we need to know at least the GOAL/end point? I have lots of colored SKINS - but that would only work for the first generation,

Stand up, speak out. Just not to me..
