I enrolled my first Sims at Uni. He saw a Secret Society member, he talk to her. He have the option to offer something at the statue. He do not try to join because he was a vampire and he did not need any help. I enrolled a second sims, He already had the Offer Option at the statue. He offer a crystal and he got the Surreal Focus moodlet. I play a few days but nothing happened. I enrolled a third sim and a fourth one. With each one I do all the process again. Every time I got the Surreal Focus moodlet. Nothing, the Secret Society never show up. Since I saw the first member at the first days at uni I have not saw another member. I have played 7-9 weeks now, I think the SS in my game does not exist anymore.

  • She didn’t have to rejoin though. It was still showing her as a senior member. There just weren’t any sprites or other members.

    @Rae_Regenbogen @crinrict  I was partially able to duplicate this. The order members were always present but the Sprites never did visit my sim. She was part of the order for 6 sim weeks.

    @crinrictSomething similar was happening to me. I would leave the goods, I know they were good enough and at 11pm, I'd get an LE and noone would show up.

    Thing is, if I didn't have MCCC, I wouldn't know an LE was occurring. It would just look like nothing happened.

    In my current playthrough with the extra homeless sims, it worked just fine this time. No LE, and joined just fine.

    This same happens to me when I try to join. I have tried like 10 times.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a sim in University make an offering (that meets the requirement to get into The Secret Society).
    What happens when the bug occurs? I get the surreal buff and wait around for the Secret Society member(s) to come to my dorm and ask me and then they never show up, even multiple nights later.
    What do you expect to see? Secret Society members should come and invite me to join.
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
    Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

    Just as stated above, I go through the motions and make an offering and I get the right buff and then the members never show up to my dorm. I know other people have experienced this too but I am unsure if anyone recently has gone through the same thing. Just looking for help on getting this to work! I have tried to research University Urban Legends and everything and nothing helps.

    This glitch only occurs in one of my saves, for some reason. I have only once been able to join the SS in that save, but it works fine in the others. I don't know why this is happening. The only time it worked was when I originally bought University. 

    Edit to add:  I forgot to mention I had only been using that save for about a month after Uni was released. I only just started playing in it again
