I'm in for this one. What happens if a romantic interest dies? No score for that one??

That's correct. It all boils down to your total when the clock runs out. If a Romantic Interest would die the day before the clock ran out, then their picture would not appear in the Relationships tab anymore.

Also, are there any traits or LTW rewards that are off limits??

No traits are banned. The Moodlet Manager is banned, as always. That's specifically mentioned already.

Ok, this is a question I have after doing something similar in my Alphabetical Legacy:  Can we enter Edit Town mode to figure out the next family in the Alphabet?  Or do we have to rely only on sims that our Sim has met?  Obviously we can't alter anything in Edit Town mode, it would only be for reference purposes.

No. But, don't forget that practicing ahead of time to gain useful info is okay ;).

Article in the Sunset Valley Star Phoenix, July 3, Society Page:

We have confirmed reports that playboy Peregrine Pickle has purchased property in Sunset Valley.  Mr Pickle is a notorious philanderer and there has been much speculation regarding his purpose in coming to our town.  In an exclusive interview with reporter Victoria Andrews, Pickle declared, “I am on a mission to spread love throughout the known Sim world.  As soon as my house is ready next Friday, the summer of love begins!  I have just 36 days to complete my mission, and of course I shall be travelling a lot of that time.  But there is no-one better qualified for this mission than I.  I am confident of success.  So, Victoria, why don’t I skip the Altos and go straight to Andrews, eh?   They say I’m a great kisser - would you care to confirm that rumour?” 

Interview ended abruptly

What a great set-up, Schipperke! Have fun, Peregrine. Sounds like he'll need lip balm to prevent his lips from getting chapped from overuse!

Yeah, he's planning a lot of kissing, that's for sure.  But I think he draws the line at teddy bears!  ;D

I just want to be crystal-clear: would this example be within the rules?

Betty Hall
Molly Hesh
Sally Hesh
Patty Howe

Just want to make sure I have the same-family thing down pat.

Yep. That would be the right order, Tommy.

Once we have reached Romantic Interest do we break up with them or keep them like that?  ???

Scoring is based on how many romantic interests we have at the end not how many we make so if you broke up with them you'd only have 1  at the end.


...if you made them a romantic interest in the correct order but then lost them, would you be allowed to do them again?

Nope. Again, it's a one-way journey through the alphabet.

So, the whole idea is keeping them romantic interests, so you can count in the friends list how many you have by the hearts.  If you break up with them, you are losing them as a romantic interest and then that defeats the whole purpose of the challenge.  Is this correct?  Just checking.   :D

It all comes down to how many Romantic Interests you have in the Relationships tab when the clock runs out. How you "keep" the relationship at that level is part of the strategy and can't be discussed here. I did give a pretty big hint for someone else in another thread a couple hours ago that could benefit anyone in this event. You can do the snooping for that. ;)

Well, of course, that makes perfect sense.  Now you got me curious, will have to go snooping, lol.  Actually, I think I already read it.  Will check though.  I haven't officially signed on to this one yet.  Will let you know though.
