Can you have the adult get the mail?

You can just get the mail when the adult is allowed to pay the bills.

But would you be able to use whats in the mail if it goes straight into the adults inventory? Wouldn't this be "controlling" the adult?

Well, I see getting the mail and using something that came in the mail as different. Team thoughts?

Yes, using what comes in the mail is different.

Of course you don't have to get the mail at all -  You can use the phone or computer to pay the bills without ever actually getting the mail.

Here's how the Foster Family did.

Total satisfaction: 21,500
Skill Multiplier: 1.42

Total score: 30,530.

I hope that's right because I couldn't do anything but view the spreadsheet ( I think I was too tired to figure it out, I stayed up late to finish this), so I used my calculator to do the job. 

The Foster Family were created in honour of my parents who used to run a Foster Home, I was one of the few kids they adopted which changed my life forever, so I had to do this challenge, no matter what.

Having said that, this was the most stressful challenge I have ever done, I think I spent most of my time yelling and cursing at my game, lol. It really didn't help that my game was riddled with bugs, honestly, I don't remember when I had such a glitchy game, which only added to my frustration. 

But it's done and dusted and I am taking a break from the next challenge as it's definitely not my thing lol, but I'll still be entering more of these things, if I can survive this then I can survive anything!

So I finally did it. In 8 hours I have to leave for the airport but needed to finish this first before going to bed  .

Ana & Wayne Muniz raised 16 toddlers in total, I didn't wait for them to age up to elders as they had 1 more day(got the party notification) so no time to age another toddler. And also I am really really sleepy - past 4 am already.

TS: 30400
SM: 1.91
Total: 58064

Now I am off to bed and will have 2 weeks away from Sims but I might be lurking around to see the strategies

@ cyclonenic good luck with your interviews!

Cheers,
WP

This was so much fun! Watching the adults passing out and all the stinky people was hilarious.

I had TS of 28400 and a multiplier of 1.98 for a total of 56232 (According to the spreadsheet provided)

Were we supposed to add a x1 to our multiplier like that? Because if so then I've done my scoring wrong. 

[LenaLJ]

Yes we are @Rainbow Dash

And regarding the spreadsheet you have to open it and go to file and the click make a copy to have a version in where you can type

@LenaLJ Sorry, I didn't know I had to create a copy, I'm still not used to these spreadsheets yet. I checked the rules about adding x1 to the multiplier but didn't see it anywhere, I guess I was so tired from staying up to finish this darn challenge that I must have missed it. 

Anyway, here is my real score, lol!

Total satisfaction: 21,500
Skill Multiplier: 2.42

Total score: 52,030

Hopefully I'm not failing at maths this time. XD

Dont worry it was in the example of the rules:

SM = 1.00 + .05 + .08 + .04 + .07 = 1.24


And in general for all with the spreadsheets, if you have questions or something that does not work like you expect with it, then PM me.

[Rainbow Dash]

*Slaps forehead* Oh ... it's right there! Like I said, I was exhausted so yeah, I didn't even click, lol. Thanks for the help.  Well, I'm glad I finally got my real score, lol, looks like I may be looking at a slightly higher place on the leader board now. (Bet it won't hold). 

[Metropolis Man]

All done. Hey, @Rainbow Dash -- you and I share something special...I am adopted as well. So, this event definitely tugged on my heart strings too.
