Elisa Dolittle maxed 21 skills on her own.
21 x 1,000 x 1 = 21,000
She completed the last skill at 10.49 pm with 10 days to go until becoming an adult.

Nice score!  You didn't mean to type ten days before the elder birthday, did you?  If not, I can't even imagine how you gained skills so fast.

Oops! It's definitely 10 days before becoming an elder. Thank you, ClayMask!

Wow, Tixxis! And I was wondering if a single Sim could cap them all by themselves. Question answered!  ;D

Is Gourmet cooking not being considered a skill? I'm asking because I counted 22 skills if someone owns all packs and includes Gourmet Cooking as a skill.

Thanks all!
I thought I'd raise the bar a little.
Just know that I made mistakes in my official file. In other words, this score is vulnerable.

Well I'm definately under the bar  :(.

19 Skills maxed = 19000
2 skills @ 9 = 900
2 sims = HM 0.75

Total 19900 x 0.75 = 14925

Can't wait to hear how you did it Tixxis.

Still - very impressive, Helen. Well done. And awesome score, Tixxis - you have no doubt painted a large bullseye on your shirt that the top players are now aiming for. :)

I'm still on my practice file. When I wasn't paying attention, my challenge sim got abducted and is now pregnant.
If this were my official file, what would happen?

Question: If I send the kid back to the homeworld, would the kid still count as a household member?


I'd never used the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat before and didn't buy a satellite dish. I'll be sure to buy the satellite dish for my official run.

If this were your official file, the alien child will be consider your one addition to your household.  You will have to count your score with 2 members instead of one, even if you send the kid back to homeworld.

On another note, in sims 4 there is no option to send the child back to homeworld after you give birth.  The only way I see is to enter manage world and move the child out - but entering manage world in tournament challenges is forbidden.

Thank you, Nutella.

In TS4, as long as the alien child is still an infant, we can click on the bassinet for the option "Return to homeworld" (or something like that).

Now I know to buy the satellite dish and monitor it diligently. Figures that I only get a pregnant male by alien abduction when I don't want it, lol.
