No restrictions on lot traits, and yes, the lot has to be an EA-created one.

@Deklitch, if you use earphones, you should be able to hear. My PC doesn't have speakers, but the headphones I picked up at the grocery store work fine.

To clarify on what you can do during the rest period -- if it raises a need, and it's not specifically connected to a challenge (i.e., fishing, playing an instrument or singing, working out), then you're okay. If the need is in full green, then you have to do something else.

Another question w.r.t. 1 & 4.

Do I need to make friends/win chess with residents of that world or make friends/win chess with residents in that world?

In other words - say I go to the lighthouse in Brindleton Bay to fulfill challenge 1 (Make Friends) and run into Penny Pizzaz (who lives in San Myshuno).  Does making friends with her count?  Or should I just ignore her and only make friends with BB residents?

You make friends with residents of the world. In other words, if you run into Nancy Landgraab in Willow Creek, making friends with her won't count.

One more rule has been added:

Your Sim must begin the first challenge by 9 am on the first day.

To clarify on what you can do during the rest period -- if it raises a need, and it's not specifically connected to a challenge (i.e., fishing, playing an instrument or singing, working out), then you're okay. If the need is in full green, then you have to do something else.

The General Challenge rules say no editing of non-home lots, so does this mean that changing lot traits is not considered editing, or does it mean that we can change lot traits in this challenge specifically, or does it mean that you can change the lot traits of a new lot you place?  Or . . . something else . . . I'm confused about what lot traits you can change. 

Thanks!

You can add lot traits to the lot that you place in Newcrest. I hadn't remembered the General Challenge rule about not editing non-home lots, so you're right -- you can't change the traits of the lots that already exist.

I have now finished a spreadsheet to help calculate the time spent in each challenge world.
When you use it you need to create a copy for your own use.
