[OPEN] [CoL] No ribbon/message after Finchwick Fair

It's happened to me as well, I've tried a couple different things and a different save files. I just can't figure out what the problem is. Sometimes I'll get a ribbon for a pie in one of my files. I have a whole separate save file for a super sim I've been working on and I have this problem for every single fair on it.

I am having the same issue.  I entered a cow and strawberry milk into the fair.  I received a first place ribbon for my cow but no notification at all for the strawberry milk.  I was given both back into my inventory.  This seems like it is a pretty well documented bug at this point.

The wool competition works fine for me it's the pie competition that's not working for me.

Just happened to me. Submitted my pie, got the notification that its ending in an hour and then nothing after that. Thankfully I saved before.

It's bad enough that I don't understand how sometimes I lose when I have perfect items and other entries are poor or normal but sometimes nothing happens.

I'm having this issue too, just had the Cow and milk fair I entered Excellent quality Golden Milk (the game wouldn't let me put my cow into my inventory for some reason) I spent all day at the fair, the Mayor came over and judged the milk several times, exclaiming that the Golden Milk was the most wonderful thing she had ever seen. I then got a notification that the fair was ending, once it ended there was no notification about the winners or if my sim had won anything and to boot, the milk had vanished into dust, along with the rest of the fair. 

I hope this bug gets fixed soon. 

This is happening to me, too. The "main" competition will consistently give out rewards but the "minor" competition gives out nothing. I get the items back at the end of the fair but no ribbons given, not even a participation ribbon. So my chickens, cows, etc, will all take home some sort of prize but I'll rarely ever get anything for my eggs, milk, etc. Occasionally, I do actually get the payout but I have no idea what causes it to work sometimes and what causes it to break.

Some people have suggested the mayor is too distracted by the stereo to review all the entries but it doesn't seem to matter whether she's judged my entry or not. I've seen her judge my minor entries plenty of times and still didn't get a ribbon, so I'm not sure the action of her judging the entries is actually linked to the results. It may just be one of those idle NPC animations to make the fair feel more realistic.

What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing except nothing, basically. The fair is otherwise totally normal. The contest does not do its function. My sim can look at all the other entries, talk about people's entries, etc. But no one actually wins. I have only tried this with vegetables, pies, etc. Never livestock.
What do you expect to see? A prize or winner announcement, like the single announcement of a participation trophy I got in the same month that CL came out.

Only one mod: MCCC. Doesn't interfere with gameplay hardly at all beyond statistics and NPC sim behavior. 

Found it when my farming family packs all their produce, animal products, jams, and the contest item - I click on the Finchwick Fair announcement and take the whole family with me. As soon as it loads, I enter the competition and start chatting up the judges while another Sim sells our farm stuff. Then we chill and wait for the contest to end. It does not end. Around 9pm, there's the announcement that the festival is wrapping up. Then, everything disappears and nothing happens. I think I get my item back in my inventory when I leave. I got a notification ONCE early on that I had received a participation prize. This is right when the pack came out. I have never received any notification since.

No notifications regarding winners of fair entries in Sims4.  

I’m still having this issue too… trying to complete the Finchwick Fair Ribbons collection but it’s impossible without being able to collect any for pies, wool or milk! Hopefully it’s fixed soon
