I don't know why people are rushing off and getting their sims jobs, anyway. There are so many easier ways of surviving in this game. I gave my founder the "raise 5 children" LTW, her spouse had the "earn royalties writing books" one, my 2nd gen heir rolled "max writing and painting" and his spouse had the "13 perfect fish". If they roll wants for careers, I tend to let my sims get jobs only when they are well on their way to achieving their LTWs. Because they have more skills by then, they get promotions much faster which makes it more worthwhile.


I'm with you on this.  My Legacy family has over 1M simoleans in the bank.  The house has enough of what they need.  The money trees net $20k a day, so I've stopped planting more.  They don't NEED a job and the jobs take too much of their day away that they can be fulfilling their LTW.  Unless sims have a LTW that is job related, they aren't going to work any more.

The dishwasher broke and I had her fix it but it only increased the skill and now she's at level 5. I don't want to drown her because it'll take too long and I'd rather it be more accidental. Should I just keep getting a technophobe to break things until she croaks? He's already an elder and I don't have much time until he dies.
I haven't found drowning to take very long at all. Sims seem to only be able to swim for about 45 minutes before they drown. In fact, the drowning timer starts the moment they get in the pool. I haven't actually DROWNED them this way, since I wasn't trying to do so, but that was the timer. It USED to take awhile, unless you waited for their energy to already be low, but now it seems to work rather quickly regardless of energy.

Hi there,

I was looking for something about the life duration ... without success.
So what, is it up to me/you/everyone ?  ;)

I think that the normal life duration (90 days) should be an obligation otherwise I'm sure that some dummies will say "I pick epic, Legacy's too long, blablabla, I'm rich after 1 generation, blablabla, boring"  :-\
Do you agree ?

I even received a reprimand for top-posting. Usually, top-posting is required on other lists because people just wanna read the latest info, not the most recent history.


Ah, yes, I see why it would work. This forum software, however, resets the "new" icon whenever you edit your post, so it's handy and doesn't need to double post. In fact, it's even better: the edited post will not be bumped up in the list, but it wil show the new icon anyway, so it's easier to understand what's going on at first sight.
