Day of the Day troubles

Even back when the "Day of the Dead" scenario was going on, getting them to actually give you the Sugar Skull was a hassle since you pretty much had to get them all the way up to "Good Friend" before they'd even have a chance to give you a Sugar Skull.

The same thing applies even now; it's easier to befriend the "Day of the Dead" celebrant now with things like Kindness Ambassador, Incredibly Friendly, and other traits, but you'll still run into the original issue of having to befriend the celebrant to a high degree before they'll relinquish a Sugar Skull to you.

As far as getting the Celebrant to stick around long enough:

- Try to have them show up in a neighborhood that's decently populated, where they'll show up, have a chat with another Sim or two, before they attempt to leave.

- Avoid having them show up during storms, such as blizzards or thunderstorms. (Seasons)

- If you have to, move the tombstone to a lot in a more populated area. (I found Brindleton Bay works well enough.)

Sometimes the Celebrant will pass through the neighborhood more than once as well, so keep an eye out even after they leave; sometimes you'll get lucky.
