[Live Event] 'Holiday Home’ (10 days)

Post by ErinPW »

This is a 10 day Live Event starting from August 5th. (PST)

The infos are based on the experiences with former Live Events.
Requirements: (Subject to change)

Candles - 30,250
Pottery - 90,875
Jewelry - 75,000
Glassware - 40,000
CC’s - 875

The milestones will give 58 CCs (2x 3, 2x 4, 2x 5, 2x 7, 2x 10)
Plus 1 every 24 hours and 32 + 10 after completing the daily goals.

While you may have the stations in your inventory or on a lot they are unusable until you unlock them again. We still have to progress through the personal prizes to unlock the different craft stations to use.

7 actions are stocked when you purchase a station from the Home Store.
After those 7 are used it takes 2.5 hours to restock it for 9 uses or 10 SPs to restock for 18 uses. If you are using SP it is better to just pay the 10 to get 18 uses as speeding up the 2.5 hours takes 9 SPs.

Note: The lenght of the actions depend on your Sim‘s mood. Inspired Sims will be faster, happy Sims will do the tasks at a normal speed, sad Sims will need more time. Pictures of the stations and action times can be found here.

Pictures to follow.

The first of every item is free. The car isn‘t free at the Car Dealer, but there‘s one of each on the lot.

Does anyone know if that lot is available on any other house? Love the lot design to build on, but don’t want to spend some precious SP’s to finish up if it’s available with other houses

It’s the same at "Captivating Coast" from another live event.

I saw on a blog that the swims can swim in the ocean on the lot, so I went ahead and spent some SP’s to finish up — I got the WORST spins on constructor coins the entire event. So frustrating.

Must be random. I got lots of triples, including a triple grasshopper.

So the grand prize house has a sewing machine in it - I think I may have missed the event where these were introduced. I saved what I wanted and destroyed the house, but I can’t find that saved sewing machine anywhere. Does anyone know what inventory category it goes into? Also, can Sims actually use it, or is it just decorative?

I’m not sure which event, Gaudy or nearby maybe? It is usable but not for sewing hobby, just entertainment.
