Mineral Town Challenge 002

I will be following (I promise I picked some challenging stuff here):
Again it's a mix between Briar Rosethorn's Mineral Town Challenge (MTC) and FerralNightingal's Harvest Moon Rivals Challenge (HMRC).

These Challenges were not made by me. I am mainly taking notes so I have the rules in 1 page.

General Rules
Reviving Your Farm
Marriage
Marriage Candidate Unlock Conditions
Upgrades
How can you lose?

• Must have at least 3 bachelors and 3 bachelorettes, No more then 6 bachelors an 6 bachelorettes. (Traits do not matter but try to give interest and a rival similar traits/interest so they are drawn to each other) -- or use the Briar Rosethorn's GBA HM modeled characters.

Reviving Your Farm

• When you first arrive at the farm, you’ll see an overgrown field full of weeds, stumps, and rocks. You may delete all the weeds right away on your first day to make room for crops, but stumps cannot be deleted until your farmer reaches 3 Handiness skill and rocks cannot be deleted until your farmer reaches 4 Handiness skill. (MTC)

Marriage

From MTC:

• You are not limited to the marriage candidates from the original game. You may marry anyone in town who catches your fancy, but they must be a Mineral Town character. You cannot marry a townie or a Sim you created yourself.
• You must marry your love interest before your rival
• You cannot get married until the following requirements have been met:
• 1) Your home has been upgraded to have a full kitchen and a bedroom with a double bed.

• 5) You have gone on a minimum of 4 gold level dates with the person you want to marry.
• 6) You have received a blessing from the Harvest Goddess. To do this, simply become friends with her and give her a hug. If she casts a positive spell on you, this will also satisfy this requirement. If you choose to marry the Harvest Goddess, you must get a blessing from Kappa, instead.
• If your spouse dies, you must remarry and satisfy all the marriage requirements over again for the new spouse. You must have a child with the new spouse and raise him/her to the child age, even if you already have a child with your previous spouse.

• If after five days you fail or they marry the rival within that time you must break up with them and subtract another 10 love points from the other love interest(you reputation as a home wrecker has put them off a bit)

MTC:

• Your farmer dies.
• Any of your animals are taken away due to neglect.
• You cannot pay for the expensive treatment for a sick animal.
• Any of your children are taken away due to neglect or poor grades.
• You break a challenge rule and cheat or do things before you’re allowed to.

HMRC:

• All love interest marry before you can marry them(if you like one but they get married you have no choice but to pick the next an so on)
• If at the end of year 3 you fail to befriend 2 rivals (this might be for seasons only?? I don't have that pack -- so fail if you don't befriend 2 rivals before adulthood)
• If at the end of year 3 you fail to have 2 rival couples marry
• If your rival couples fail to have a child before they become elders(for example if you get 4 rival couples married at least 2 of them need to have a child)
• If you fail to have a child(no fertility treatment or cheats allowed, you can not do anything to try and determine the gender of your child, eating apples for boys etc.)
• Have your animals taken away by social worker

Again, I have tweaked both challenges to fit the packs I only have. I may need to edit it (if and when I get Eco Living for the Vertical Meat Plant).

Let's go!
