So, basically impossible without spending SP. I think I am done with these.

Yes, mine found 23 of the 36 in the 1st go around :evil: , and, I completely didn’t realize they would be “stuck” on that activity until completed - I wasn’t thinking and had planned on switching to the 5 hours activity, then back to finish the search, due to my schedule... my own fault, but grrrrrrrrrr

I think they made the first day super easy, so we would be tricked into thinking they cared about all the complaints the first time around.

I'll save all the tokens for the last day. Maybe I get lucky and get something besides simoleons. Wishful thinking.

This is probably the first and last simchase for me. I refuse to buy SP's for real money and am only willing to waste a minimal amount of the SP's I have for these prices.

Two more reasons I hate sim chase.

When you tap on a destination object it doesn't flash a blue glow to show a sim is on their way.

Bookcases are locked out from additional sims using them until task is completed. 1 sim per single bookcase, 2 for double etc. Normally many sims can use the same bookcase as long as you wait until they've chosen their book and moved away.

A heads up on the bookcases. 4 sims can use the 'Matrix Bookcase' (white/blue sci-fi themed one) as long as it's accessible from both sides.

I only got 21 pieces the first time.

I skipped the first event, but if this one is EASIER (as was claimed) then there's something wrong with someone geez... can anyone who did the first event compare? Is it really easier or did they just make the "off days" simpler and not improve the prize days or what is going on here?

Thanks. I did know but did not mention. There are two others with 4 "slots" if placed so all are accessible, Scholarly and Twig.

That sounds exactly right. The non-prize days are doable if you are paying attention and can move your sims to the next task fairly easily, with a few hours of cushion.

The prize days require being able to immediately move from one activity to the next with virtually no room for error in order to meet the time limit, and depending on the luck in found objects, maybe not possible at all.

If you wait to do the park activity for last, you can save some time, and overall cost. but it will cost SP’s.

I’m trying to complete it because I really like getting clothes and hairstyles, since at least once you have them , you don’t have to pay outrageous sums over and over.
