Spirit Squad task conundrum

Something I would like to see addressed with the various Spirit Squad tasks. As far as I can tell these are NOT bugs, just annoying mechanics.

- When I have to go do something to rival schools statue, why do i have to clean up my last 'prank' before I can do my new one?

- Same issue with banners on rival stadium.

- Sometimes I get 2 tasks that do something to the statue. i.e. Yarn bomb AND Deface. I do one, then clean that up to do the other. Doubling up on similar tasks like this shouldn't happen.

- Sometimes I see my schools statue or stadium get 'pranked' but never see a task to clean it up. I have caught the pranksters on a few occasions and used mom's Simray to freeze them in their underwear tho.. 🙂

With these observations, I think someone at the rival school should clean up the pranks at the end of each term day (6PM). This would make loads of sense since pretty much every college has a maintenance staff to deal with these shenanigans.

    @DMCain, you are right in that in real life there is a maintenance staff to take care of things like cleaning up graffiti or other results of pranks or vandalism. Your suggestions are logical! (But the game isn't always logical... I mean, there is a CowPlant , after all! 😃🙌 )  

    And there should be a task to clean up your own school's statue, or grounds!  School pride isn't just about yelling cheers and painting faces! 😇

    I think that this is either oversight, or there is also the possibility that they wanted to make sure you didn't take the easy way out and wait for multiple instances of pranking the statue or the sporting arena before cleaning things up.  🤔

    And I absolutely love how you have handled the pranksters!❤️🙌 I'm going to have to try that as well! 😃

    @PugLove888 - I used 'Morphiate' on one and turned them into a pink ceramic bunny. I thought it wold work kinda like the Simray's Transform and just give them some random skin/hair colors. And 'Strangify' is fun too.. 🙂

    @DMCain, I will have to try all of those!🙌  (I have in the past tried the Sim Ray on freeze on Vlad when he lurks outside one of my Sims' house, and I've also tried the ZipZap spell and the one that makes you miserable.  😃
