I have noticed that when throwing parties the Black and White party is impossible to get gold in if you get the 'Have 3 sims listen to the piano'. This is because the only interaction you can do is 'watch' and despite having three sims 'watching' none of them counted towards the listening goal. It is really frustrating.
Also, side issue, but in previous parties in my legacy file there were always about 2 goals that if you didn't get to it didn't matter as you could still be awarded a gold medal. Now in this dynasty file there are no spare goals. If I don't complete them all then it is only a silver.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
