I'd like to give this challenge a try, if I may.

Sure thing, coletite! You're on the leader board. Welcome and good luck!

I need to reduce my score by 4 - seems I cheated as I gave both my parents the same LTW - sorry - - didn't read the rules properly

Pam · « **Reply #428 on:** May 27, 2010, 04:58:10 AM »

No problem, Thoughtfairy. I changed your score on the leader board... and I appreciate your honesty.

No problem. RL always comes first.

Wow, I have been playing probably 10 hours today but I finally finished the challenge!
Now lets see if I can figure out my score:

Successful kids: 6x2 = 12 points
Successful teens: 6x3 = 18 points
LTW fulfilled: 9x4 =36

Total: 74

Toddlers: 7
Children: 7
Teens: 6
LTW: 7

67 points total

I am sorry but I have to pull out of this Challenge. I had cataract surgery at the end of April, and it took me a lot longer than expected to be able to spend serious time on the computer again. I will not have enough time to finish this challenge unfortunately.

coletite · « **Reply #434 on:** May 31, 2010, 01:06:30 PM »

Wow, that did NOT go as planned.

But it was a load of fun!

Toddlers: 7x1=7
Children: 5x2=10
Teens: 5x3=15
LTW: 6x4=24
Total=56

Jonna · « **Reply #435 on:** May 31, 2010, 06:46:52 PM »

Finished!

Toddlers:10x1=10
Children: 6x2=12
Teens: 6x3=18
LTW:11x4=44

For a total of: 84

Nicely done, Jonna. That will be 2 place finishes for you (assuming you stay there

. Hot score.

Thank you! It might not be a surprise to you that one of my traits, were I a Sim, would be perfectionist.

Ha ha. Hardly a surprise there. You and "spreadsheet Nancy" can battle it out for top honors in the fanatical perfectionist department.

Please take me off the board for this one. I got bored and didn't finish.

curlybennett · « **Reply #440 on:** June 01, 2010, 12:20:27 PM »

I finally finished this one:

toddlers:6x1
kids: 5x2
teens:6x3
LTW:6x4

Total:58

tosho · « **Reply #441 on:** June 02, 2010, 12:13:55 PM »

I finished. I didn't do so well because the father died right before the oldest turned into an adult, bummer. But I'm glad I didn't have to deal with a second round of toddlers. And it gave me all the time in the world to work on the LTWs.

Toddlers: 6x1
Children: 6x2
Teenagers: 6x3
LTW: 7x4
Total: 64

malteser60 · « **Reply #442 on:** June 02, 2010, 04:27:11 PM »

Phew, that's finished thankfully! That was hard, and long. Really enjoyed most of it but was glad to finish it at the end. Not a great score unfortunately. I somehow struggled to get a child on the honors roll, even though they had A's?! Also finishing LTWs... would have had another 3 if I just had another half a day

Toddlers: 6x1
Children:2x2
Teenagers: 6X3
LTW: 4x4
Total: 44

Royaca · « **Reply #443 on:** June 03, 2010, 02:05:28 AM »

I am finally done! I can play Ambitions without worrying about this anymore.

Toddlers: 9x1=9
Children: 5x2=10
Teenagers: 6x3=18
LTW: 8x4=32
Total: 69

Not the greatest score but, I was lucky enough to have nine children all by the same mother and two were toddlers when I finished yet, I made several mistakes with some of my other kids. Luckily, all the adults finished their LTWs.

Eftyen · « **Reply #444 on:** June 03, 2010, 04:14:10 PM »

Blech! I officially suck at managing more than 2 or 3 sims.

Here's my score...

Toddlers: 6
Children: 6
Teens: 15
LTW's: 12
TOTAL: 39

Margerita · « **Reply #445 on:** June 04, 2010, 04:22:22 AM »

I am withdrawing from this challenge due to me being so sick I can't focus on my sims these last few weeks...

Metropolis Man · « **Reply #446 on:** June 04, 2010, 06:48:28 AM »

Get better soon, Margerita.

Metropolis Man · « **Reply #447 on:** June 04, 2010, 12:49:01 PM »

Just a reminder to everyone still needing to post results — you only have two and half days to do so. Good luck finishing up!

Trying for baby in the time machine would have really changed up the gameplay in this challenge!! Crazy.
