Lullaby Jingle Clarification:  Sometimes the jingle doesn't play, it is up to the player to know how to determine if the mom is pregnant in that particular location in order to count the "location" score.

@Tiamet — that question should have come to the team in a PM. I will answer you in a PM.

[Tiamet]

Sorry, Metro!

[Metropolis Man]

Sorry, Metro!

No problem. Actually, ignore my response I just sent you via PM. I had a brief discussion with another team member and after we talked about it we both agreed that for a location score to be counted, the mom actually has to deliver. I'll make it clear in the rules.

[Tiamet]

Okay, great!

[Metropolis Man]

Okay, here we go…the last sentence should hopefully clear things up:

Location. Give yourself a bonus for every different place where the mom becomes pregnant (i.e. bed and shower are two different places). Listen for the lullaby jingle. Note: The Try For Baby object must be different. So, if you use a bed on one lot and also use a bed on a different lot, you do not get credit for two different places because they are the same object. Also: For a Location score to count the mom must actually have a birth as a result of that Location's Try For Baby.

A new restriction…sorry it's on start day, but it came about via a PM:

• If a social worker takes any child away it's game over. Total your score at that point and post in this thread.

@tara1727 — your post was removed. The team will answer you via PM briefly.

Iza and Ima Frazzled are the proud parents of 11 children conceived in 5 different locations earning 13,750 points. They are amazingly chipper. I, however, am exhausted. Actually, this was a lot of fun. I never figure out the tricks, so others will do better, but not faster.

[Turoskel]

A silly mistake on my part cost me some time in the middle, then birthday cake fires pushed me over a day in the last week, was really hoping for one more pregnancy and might have got it if not for those.

Still I managed 11 kids in four weeks when I only managed 12 in 12 weeks last time so it's an improvement, very stressful and hectic challenge though.

11 kids = 11000
6 locations = 1.30

Total 11000 x 1.30 = 14300

[Metropolis Man]

Similar to the social worker rule, I also added this:

• If anyone in your household dies it's game over. Total your score at that point and post in this thread.

(thanks, Lena)

That's interesting, Turoskel. I made an error in the middle, too, that I could have avoided had I done a practice run. I think I could have squeezed in one more pregnancy.

[Kirstie]

13 kids in 6 locations.

13000 * 1.30 = 16900

Rabbit and Bunny Rainboo had 12 children, from 6 locations -- 12,000 x 1.3 = 15,600.
