Well, started again. I had hoped for improvement in requirements in community tasks.
Mid April I did one that had one that required Share parenting task 20 times (40 sims) more than once, plus many other tasks requiring large numbers of sims. There were 34 community tasks, 2 of which gave less than the normal 3% progress. I was especially indignant when there was 1% progress after a 13.5 hour task!
In late April, several players reported that the numbers, while still difficult, seemed a bit easier. I did a pregnancy and found the Share Advice was only 9 times (18 sims) and some other tasks required fewer also. There were 32 tasks, none less than 3% progress.
So I was hopeful. But I just got Share Advice 16 times. I don't have 32 adult/teen/senior sims. (You can use teen or senior if you pair with an adult.) Sigh.

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
I’m sitting this one out! Too much work for too little reward. I’m becoming very ambivalent about events. The ones I do, I do what I can and get what I can without driving myself nuts and I’m ok with not doing them at all these days if it involves stress.
I’ve never liked the pregnancy thing personally. I did enough to get the furniture prizes at the start. Now I’m happy to introduce new babies the old fashioned way.

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
OMG ! These pregnancy events are tiresome, expensive, and redundant in repeating tasks...
Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
I'm just looking to unlock furniture in pregnancy store and maybe enough super sims to speed up crafting events a bit. Right now I have 2 and put them on glassware.
It sure is messing with my family relationships, though. Wish we could reset those.

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
My second community task was Share Advice 19 times. I had to do it in 2 rounds - good thing I had to get up really early this morning. I really wish they'd just put this stuff in the maternity shop. I have around 150K tokens that I can't use for anything. Double sigh.SKatF wrote: ↑20 May 2019, 18:42 Well, started again. I had hoped for improvement in requirements in community tasks.

does anyone have any idea as to what's the price for the wallpaper? the mint wainscot thingy?

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
In my town there is a pregnant sim, too, with the same hopes for the support tasks. Some of my sims are going to grow older and a baby is wanted for some weekly tasks. I don't know if I'll use the items from the maternity store or the prizerandy_thrandy wrote: ↑22 May 2019, 15:35 does anyone have any idea as to what's the price for the wallpaper? the mint wainscot thingy?

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
thank you, Erin! so far my tasks have been bearable (i just got the hellish 'give parenting advice to 14 sims) which will require 2 turns bc i don't have enough sims), i hope yours are too!
i'm glad the maternity store wallpapers are all ... /affordable/ i was however wondering if the special prize mint wallpaper is going to be affordable as well or are they gonna shove SPs on it. i noticed somwhere that the rocking chair in this prize pack comes for SPs so i'm really hoping that if i manage to unlock it, it won't be another overly pricey wallpaper i'll never be able to use. :S

Well, I got the parenting advice to 20 sims and had to complete 2 turns as well. What bugs me more is that some short tasks start late in the evening, so I'm going to lose several hours because I'm in bed already when they are done. I never set alarms at night. At the end of the last pregnancy event the support tasks caught up and possibly it does again

Re: [Event] Pregnancy Event
The awful support tasks aside, they need to do something about the ridiculous cost for the yoga instructor and doctor. Like have it charge so much for the "at home" service but get far cheaper options at the hospital and gym. It would at least be a way to incorporate the other buildings around town. So many things in this game are build once, do they quest/event, and then forget about. There's a hospital in the game! Why is the doctor materializing in the front yard!?
