Loser is a social Trait in The Sims 3. It conflicts with the brave and charismatic traits.
Losers encounter woe and misfortune throughout their lives beginning with school and continuing into their careers. They will fail and fail often. They won't get mad even when life falls apart. They'll just cry.
Attributes
- When rolling for a school or career event, Loser Sims have a 50% chance of instead receiving an event that describes something humiliating happening to the Sim.
- Losers will break down in tears if something negative happens to them.
- Losers complain more in a conversation.
- Losers are less likely to win at darts,[TS3:LN] Gnubb[TS3:LN] and snowball or water balloon fights,[TS3:S] but don't have any disadvantage when playing chess, video games, arcade games, dominoes,[TS3:ST] apple bobbing,[TS3:S] the lottery,[TS3:ITF] blackjack,[Store] roulette[Store] or poker[Store]. This is in contrast to Unlucky Sims, which have a lower chance of winning all the above games. Neither trait has a lower chance of winning at horseshoes or eating contests.[TS3:S]
- Losers are very unlikely to win fights. The chances increase a little if they have the Evil or Mean Spirited traits if they are fighting another Loser.
- Losers will get more potent "Winner" moodlets when they manage to win games.
- Losers will also get "Winner" moodlets when they get promoted.
- Instead of getting a "Win a Game" wish, the losers' wish will instead state "Be a winner, for once."
- If a loser loses a game, they can "Whine About Being a Loser" to other Sims. Ambitious Sims will not react well to the interaction.
- If a loser manages to win a game, they can "Boast About Finally Winning Something!" to other Sims.
- Losers are at a slight disadvantage in all majors while studying at college.[TS3:UL]
- Strangely, losers can still possess the lucky trait, despite the trait contradicts lucky in every single way possible.
- If a loser has the "Splash" interaction used on them while swimming in a pool, they will pitifully plead with the Sim splashing them to stop rather than getting irritated or angry.
- Losers will flee before Sims who are the Emperor of Evil.
- Losers are more likely to lose a brawl.[TS3:LN]
- Losers with the Can Apprehend Burglar hidden trait can still fight a burglar, but unless the burglar also has this trait, the loser will still lose the fight anyway despite the increased chance of winning a fight from the Can Apprehend Burglar hidden trait.
