:( I really hope people haven't lost interest in this challenge! There's a lot to keep track of but it's really fun (so far) ^-^ !
My 3rd Gen is half teenagers now, so my household count is about to take a huge jump.
Some play feedback, I got pets a while ago but just installed it recently, I'm too early in the challenge to be thinking about placing any Pets EP-related buildings, I just wanted the stray animals. Unfortunately now several houses call my active sims, "BRO MY PET GAVE BIRTH COME ADOPT SOME." I'm playing with story progression and aging off.
This is a very similar issue to the tourists swarming my community garden at the beginning. I ignored tourists with my founder but I have interacted with tourists since then. I have been ignoring options to "adopt animals" both from the "shelter" and from neighbours, and have given up animals for adoption as they randomnly are adopted by sims who shouldnt be adopting them. All initial pets should be strays, I think. I just wish there was a better way to deal with World Adventures tourists and Pets adoption.
Let me know if you have any suggestions!
A tip for anyone trying the challenge, writing novels becomes irrelevant very, very quickly when playing with story progression off, because you play each household one after another for a week at a time. The 6 weeks of royalty payments therefore are not received properly by the author. For any players who are trying to complete all/as many lifetime wishes as possible during the challenge, make sure you choose Professional Author for one of your first few sims (before your rotation exceeds 5).
