Consecutive Days Login @ AHQ

Does anyone know what clock is used? I have my current time zone set in my profile, but when I log out, timestamps on my profile switch to GMT. Is there a way to monitor my current number of consecutive days? None of the stats I’ve found appear to allow me to derive this parameter. 

Thx in advance. 🙃

  • @suzushka  I got one of those badges when logging in right after midnight local time, (GMT -8), but I'd logged in earlier that evening when it was already the next day GMT.  So for me, it clearly used my current time zone rather than GMT.

    The count was always off for me as well.  I earned each badge about 25% later than I should have, i.e. I got one for 250 consecutive days logged in 62 days after I got the 200 days badge.  I have no idea why that was, but the badges did eventually trigger.  And no, I never found out a way to track my progress, other than counting forward from the last badge I earned.

    From what I have seen, these discarded meals do not spoil if you pick them up and store them in your Sim's inventory. As gross as this sounds, in one of my saves I would stock up on these discarded meals and have my Sim eat them while adventuring in Selvadorada. They are more filling (and obviously much cheaper) than the GCRE's (Grilled Cheese Ready to Eat) you can buy in the Selvadorada market stalls. Now that I think on it, they really aren't that much more gross than an orange ball of imperishable grilled cheese anyway xD

    @PugLove888 Yes and she has super-powers too! She is immortal (as far as I know, Sims with the hidden weirdo trait do not age) and she is impervious to cold in her luchador costume-- a swimsuit, some tights, and a goofy looking hat (or mask) ;-D

    @RandomBuzziness, I always end up eating the festival meals before I make it to Selvadora! 😃  I need to try to keep them for the excursion! 

    I love your crazy racoon luchadora Sim! 🥳 What adventures she could have!!! 🤨🙌

    @PugLove888 Now if only my crazy luchador Raccoon Girl superhero could just go back in time to prevent Lilith Pleasant from growing up to be a dastardly kleptomaniac slob! 👿

    I was trying to think of a way to game the system (like changing my time zone +1 every hour).


    In a previous post (#6), and mainly in jest, I spitballed a couple hypothetical hacks. Thought I’d follow up for the sake of the hypothetical intrepid forum explorers that may stumble across this post in the future (and kudos to you rare, wonderful creatures who use the search function).

    I actually tested the one quoted above. either the premise is a nonstarter or I was lazy with my logic (i.e. +1 vs -1), but I’m fairly certain I actually broke my chain of consecutive days in the process of experimentation (i.e. mucking around with my time zone setting). My opinion, fwiw: cost:benefit doesn’t warrant confirmation of my results - you’ll save more time by not trying this one.
