A guide to this year's Christmas quest:
A Christmas Warming
Starting Dec 12th, 2021
Please note the the times are for 3 star objects, using inspired Sims
Using 1-2 star objects or uninspired Sims will add time
This will give you an idea how much time and effort you need to put into this and how many sims is needed when
The last day needs 29 Sims, if you do not have enough Sims, you need to do the task twice, adding more time
I will use a spoiler so you can chose if you want to see it or not
Also note, that I am not the best with numbers and i might have miscalculated some
Good Luck!
Spoiler
Looking at the post I realise the table is not showing total time for the day, unless you scroll the table to the right.
Maybe it's just my browser, but, please scroll horizontally, to see the total time of the day too
Ooh, it is even worse on mobile, please, scroll the table horizontally so you do not miss anything 🙂
I plan to use about 75 LPs to finish this because I am too old to be up 24/7
A box of 100 LP is about $10, worth it to me to get Santa's Compound
I will use timers (loud beeps) to remind me that my Sims are done
I will mostly use LPs on tasks shorter than 2-3 hours, the 3H10M tasks, I will wait 10 min until the time left is 2H59M and rush it for 2 LP
I will not use LPs for tasks that require multiple Sims, that is too expensive IMO
Good Luck!

I plan to use about 75 LPs to finish this because I am too old to be up 24/7
A box of 100 LP is about $10, worth it to me to get Santa's Compound
I will use timers (loud beeps) to remind me that my Sims are done
I will mostly use LPs on tasks shorter than 2-3 hours, the 3H10M tasks, I will wait 10 min until the time left is 2H59M and rush it for 2 LP
I will not use LPs for tasks that require multiple Sims, that is too expensive IMO
Good Luck!
