Restaurant Wars: What's on the Menu?

[MarianT]

That does sound exciting! Good score.

I am surprised how close the scores are for the first three players finishing.

Very fun challenge even though I had very little experience or practice with the Dine Out pack. I managed to muddle my way through and ended up with a restaurant worth $60,150.

I wasn't plagued with the bugs that others talked about but had seven customers die (four at one time) causing everyone else to get up from their tables and stand around while the Grim Reaper worked his way around the room.

Oh, wow @Eighty8Keys - I would have loved to seen a screenshot of that moment with Grim. Lol.

I thought having both Landgraabs kick it was impressive, but four at once is crazy @Eighty8Keys
Did your unlucky patrons at least pay for their meal before meeting up with Grim?

I sure hope they did. It's a pretty drastic way to get out of paying your bill.

This challenge ends this Thursday night, so please get those scores in soon. Good luck to everyone finishing up.

Skippy Ray's Restaurant was worth §91,463. So glad this one is over with. 

[Metropolis Man]

Wow, this was really hard. Harder than the cheese left out on the counter for a week at Chez Blech and then happily offered to customers. When all was said and done and the health inspectors finally left my restaurant was worth $81654.

The first few weeks were very rough, but business improved a lot over the last three weeks.
I had two employees who died immediately after they aged to elder. I guess this is a Dine Out bug?

The restaurant Uma sugiru (Too Delicious) was worth $128,885 on 8 am of the seventh Sunday.

P.S. Please forgive me while I vent.
There was an area-wide internet outage where I live from late Tuesday until this morning. Not even my cell phone (with its own data plan) worked.
I hated that I couldn't play Sims at all because Origin says "You have to be online to log in the first time."
I never realized playing Sims 4 required an online connection.

@oshizu very nice score! Especially after two employees dying

I noticed that too (about the internet connection), I completely understand your frustration.

@MissZoef
They aged up and died during Week 6. I was hoping to squeeze just 3 more days out of them! lol

I never realized playing Sims 4 required an online connection. 

That's probably because all our games are virtual on Origins account now.  I remember Sims 3 I have physical copies of all the games and xpacs, was able to run the game even when my Comcast was down for a whole day.

Nice scores, everyone! I wanted to drop in and say I won't be submitting a score for this event. My (old) computer's hard drive failed on Tuesday, and I have no clue what my score was at the time. On the plus side, I get my nice new repaired computer back tomorrow! Looking forward to hearing everyone's strategies!!

[MarianT]

Glad you'll be getting your computer back tomorrow, @Minnie Mouse ! Looks like everyone is posting great scores.
