How to achieve LTW of golden anniversary
Regina:
I remembered reading this a few days back so decided to come back here.
My sim has a want for a golden anniversary, too. She transitioned to an elder a few days after her hubby did. I decided to throw the party on the day she turned elder, Sunday evening, since everyone was home. She did the party thing on the phone and invited two of her best friends. The message came up about the guests being invited, yada, yada, yada, then up popped the box about missing party guests. Now these two guests were supposed to be her best friends and neither showed up!
I finally had her invite over another friend and he came. Once he came onto the lot the party dialogue box came up (for anniversary party) and as things turned out the get together was a smashing success.
Still, though, her LTW hasn't been fulfilled. I'm scratching my head on this one. It was too late at night by the end of the party to see if perchance she still had the option to throw an anniversary party. I'll have to check tomorrow.

Bah. That's exactly what's happening to me too except the husband isn't an elder yet. It's sad that my first line of thought is that Nightlife (or the patch) created a new bug where it's impossible to fill this LTW.
I haven't filled anyone's LTWs since NL came out (don't do it very frequently). Can anyone confirm filling LTWs in general aren't a problem? Has anyone been able to fill the golden anniversary LTW since NL or the patch?
Sagana:
I did the anniversary party after NL came out, but before the patch and it worked perfectly at that point. Neither of my guests showed up (which was actually what I wanted ;) and that didn't matter - I got the announcement the want was filled immediately after the planning or the start of the party (forget which, but certainly before it ended). The sims were married as adults and both transitioned to elder before I got the option for anniversary party.
It could be the patch, I suppose. I thought they had to get married as adults and transition to elders, however.
Regina:
I'm not going to blame this problem on the patch yet. I'll fiddle with it a bit more and see what happens.
Since NL is my only expansion I haven't filled very many LTWs and this is my first attempt at this one. I was tired last night so decided instead of playing through another day to see if I still had the anniversary party option I read for a while then went to bed.

Same here, went off without a hitch for my Sims.

I've been wondering about this since NL came out - has anyone had a Downtownie attend a party? My Sim has 3 children by Mr. Big but the two of them never got married so he's still in the Townie pool. She invited him to each of their birthday parties and he didn't show up for any of them. The only other Downtownies my Sims have as friends are teens and with the leaving weirdness, I haven't bothered to invite them to see if they would show. It kinda makes me wonder if something is wonky with Downtownies coming to parties or if my Mr. Big is just a huge ass. Up until NL, I've never had a Sim not show up for a party if they were friends with the inviter.
