2018 Handiness World Championships

[LenaLJ]

Nice seeing the first scores in. I will also play this very soon, the handiness event has always been one of my favorites.

[Metropolis Man]

Awesome. It was nice to wake up this morning to scores already. Nice job, guys. Time to get to work and update the leaderboard.

You beat me to it, Marian. Welcome, @kathrydrake. Good luck in the challenges this year.

Oh wow!! Look at all these scores.    Time to get into gear and get this one done.

Welcome to the forums @kethrydrake

Man, 12 Sim days is fast!

edited to add: My Sim's name is Mary Sous. I saw other people were listing their names and I didn't know if you needed it.

Welcome to the forum, @xyliajames! Good score.

[Metropolis Man]

Mike Holmes is all done. This was a blast. I love money-making events...they have always been my favorites.

Unique Upgrades = 44 = 44 X .02 = .88

Total = 366,316 X 1.88 = 688,674

Lol, nice to be first, even for a moment.  Excellent score, @Metropolis Man !

[Rainbow Dash]

Whoa @Metropolis Man that's amazing! 

Alright, I'm going to give this a shot, I didn't get to practice as much as I'd hoped and handiness is not my thing but I'm determined to really try to get into the World Ranking this year. Hopefully the research I did for this and the little practice I did get in will pay off. Stop, hammer time!

[sdhoey]

Tim Taylor has finished is tool time with the following:

Household Funds: 247,896
Unique Upgrades: 45 x .02 = .90
Total: 247,896 x 1.90 = 471,002

As with @Metropolis Man, money-making events are my favorite, second to anything babies and toddlers.

[simemie]

My sim finished with §51,171 and 31 unique upgrades.

51,171 x 1.62 = 82,897.02

I was kinda annoyed with the end of this one, I feel like my sim aged before he should have. I was just getting prepared for him to pull an all-nighter before his birthday at 8am Saturday morning, but he aged 8pm Friday night instead so I'm not sure what happened with that, or whether that was supposed to happen or not (I've never played short life span before, maybe they age at different times?). Anyway... the challenge was still fun despite that, just threw me off guard is all

[Metropolis Man]

Stop, hammer time!

Okay, I don't feel so old. You're dating yourself. Lol.

[oshizu]

Hey, MC Hammer is not ancient! U Can't Touch This is only, like, 27 years old, oops.

When my sim aged up to an adult, he had $526,840 and 70 unique upgrades.
$526,840 x 2.40 = $1,264,416

@simemie   The same thing you experienced happened to me. I got an "Almost birthday" message on Thursday at 8am and thought, "Okay, I have until Saturday 8am."
                  But my sim aged up around 8pm on Friday, just like your sim. I guess it's a short lifespan thing.
