Re: [OPEN] Parties not counting for Party Animal Aspiration

This is, IMHO, the buggiest aspiration, and yet I've done it 3 times (once because Super Sim).

So: 

I only do House Party, Dinner Party, or Black and White Party.  Okay, once I did a birthday party.  Lots of parties just don't seem to count.  There are lists of which ones count online and earlier in this thread, but those are the ones I do.

The thing where if the party ends and your Sim isn't the active Sim when it ends, they don't get credit?  TRUE.  This is a PITA if, say, you have a married couple doing this aspiration together.  *cough*  Seriously, if they co-host a dinner party and one spouse cooks and the other does the socializing, they should both get credit, IMHO, but no, whichever one is "active" gets credit.  Which is vexing if, say, you have other family members in the house who need attention or have some kind of crisis.  On one occasion I had a death at a New Year's party and was busy trying to get someone to give Grim a death flower when the party ended.  The Sim with the aspiration not only didn't get credit for throwing a social event but also received the Charisma for Dummies consolation prize (she's Charisma 10; I think dealing with a guest deciding to freeze to death in the pool is more important!).  Talk about adding insult to injury!  She also didn't get credit for throwing parties at different locations a couple of times. 

The reward trait is awesome! but the actual aspiration doesn't always accurately track your doing of the things.
