Hello. Just to be sure, the banned traits are for everyone, or only the parents?

I am pretty sure when the team discussed that we were meaning for parents, so let me make that clear in the rules. Team -- if you feel those traits need to cover the whole household, then speak up right away given this event is now live.

Those where for the whole household, when it was discussed.
We decided to ban those two instead of making random traits.

Oh, ok -- my aging brain once again forgot. Lol..ty, Lena. I will edit the rules.

Does this mean we get to choose the traits for all the offspring, including toddler traits?

Yes, as long as you follow this rule...

• The "Genius" and "Creative" traits are banned for the whole household.

The "Genius" and "Creative" traits are banned for the whole household.

I am assuming this is because you don't want any to have any free moodlets and Focused and Creative are the ones that would be most helpful in this challenge, right? (Kids don't exercise so Energized is pretty useless for them and the others are either needed for aspirations or negative so they wouldn't give any benefits.)

I am assuming clubs and lot traits are unrestricted? Just asking.

Yes, on clubs. You have to choose the Private Dwelling lot trait, but that's the only mandatory one.

I am confused. BFF is best friend forever, right? Is best friend and BFF the same thing? If not, what’s the difference?

[coolsim9999999]

When the father in the household, John Kelly, aged up to Elder, he and his wife had the following offspring remaining:
YA Out 0
YA In 5
Teen 1
Child 0
Toddler 0

Therefore, my score is:
5 YAs In X 4 pts = 20 pts
1 Teens X 3 pts = 3 pts
20 pts + 3 pts = 23 pts

Total 23 points

This was a wicked awesome challenge --- and I got one point more than last year !

@Isabelalabe --- Yes,it's the same thing .  Good luck on your scoring file!

coolsim! You're back! *big hugs*

[coolsim9999999]

Hi Metro --- *big hugs* back ! 

I'll do some more challenges this year, when I can fit them in.  I had some unexpected time.

Hi All,

Needed to get this one done, before it is back to work properly. I know lots of you will smash this one, but this is my best effort.  The Broody family raised 6 children, but they could not persuade any of them to leave home before Dad aged up.

2YA still in = 8
3Teens still in = 9
1child still in = 2

Giving a grand total of 19.  Good luck to everyone and thanks Metro for putting me on the rankings.

I had a lot of fun with this challenge and I was so close to aging up one of my toddlers

YA Out 4
YA In 2
Teen 0
Child 0
Toddler 2

4 YA out x 5 = 20
2 YA In X 4 = 8
2 Toddlers x 1 = 2
Total - 30

[JocyMc]

This was a fun challenge.

The Brady's had 12 children before Mike aged up.

YA Out 6
YA In 3
Teen 1
Child 0
Toddler 2

6 YA out x 5 = 30
3 YA In x 4 = 12
1 Teen x 3 = 3
2 Toddlers x 1 = 2
Total - 47
