@Jimboola11 I am guessing I will be able to do those Thursday. Today, I'm working on the Programming Skill on a Whim :P I kind of felt like knocking out an easy one, and this is definitely it. I will likely do Writer and Programmer together to see what they unlock. At this point it looks certain that Careers will be done by Sunday, but things are always changing. It is definitely my goal. At least Programming will be done to compliment Tech Guru.
@blunote00 Thanks for the detailed info. I have not got around to testing, but I think I have an idea how I'll do it. Different sets of plants, some with Fertilizer, some without, and harvesting one plant each day to see when they start giving the boosted values. Then, I can try it on another type of plant with a longer growth time (blueberries or UFO) and confirm if they use the same timetables or not. Your data definitely helps, cheers!
@lynny back in the day, I wanted to do a Guide to the Sims 2 but I didn't have a PC powerful enough, nor the funds to buy the game and get all Expansions. If i had, it's certain my life would be different now.. but I did write a lot of guides back then, and it helped me to refine the process and develop my own style. Now it's a bit too late, since I do rely on my sites to help me live. I couldn't really devote this much time to gaming if it were any other way (hence the ads). As a result, I have to focus on newer titles. I think it's possible I will end up covering Civ: Beyond Earth next, but it's hard to say how things will go by the time I'm done with TS4. I want to branch out to console, but am not sure I want to make the leap just yet.
