After seeing the run down on what's required to complete the event quest, such as: complete 2 daily to do list, having to switch a career and a hobby back and forth with my Sims which costs Simeoleons to switch back, & other really time consuming things.I decided this quest isn't worth my time, effort, cupcakes, or anything else to complete! I also feel that the event prizes really are pretty lame, so EA thanks, but no thanks with this event. Come on! I know you guys can do better!

I would also like to give the EA programmers some advice on the quests. Making the daily to-do list a quest item twice is a terrible idea. It is especially terrible when there is only one quest event possible between the two. That means that for a full 1/4th of the time of the event, we cannot work on, progress or be excited about this event. We are simply stuck in a holding pattern. That is worse than boring, it is discouraging and leads to anger at the game. I am sure that is not what you want from these events. You activated the event two hours after I woke up and finished my to-do list. When the event started, I was excited and rushed through, using cupcakes and simcash to finish quickly and then I hit quest 10, the to-do list. My progress came to a screeching halt. There was nothing exciting I could do in the event. It is even worse this time because we have learned that we will not be able to get the complete set of prizes. The hot dog suit is so rare that it isn't even worth trying.The final insult was that today, after having to wait more than 20 hours, I was able to do the daily to-do list and start progressing again. I used cupcakes to rush through the following quest event only to find out that the one after that is...........another daily to-do list that I have to wait another 24 hours for.This event is terrible and is actually diminishing my interest in the game.Please fix the following problems:1) Do not include so many requirements like the to-do list that actually prohibit me from finishing the game without long "dead times" when I cannot progress.2) Do not include super rare rewards. If I have no hope of completing the set or getting the reward I want, I will simply stop after finishing the basic quest. You will be losing my money that would have been spent if I actually thought the rewards were reasonably achievable.3) WE HATE LOOT BOXES and randomized rewards. At the very minimum we want a reasonable possibility of achieving all of the rewards.

@ShellsSeaShellsI won the sign by yelling at my appliances!! LOL I wish that worked in real life! I then finished the two guest and won the bar, twenty bucks, a cute table, both items of clothing and the banner. I am good as far as the quest goes. I find it a pain in the bum and would much rather be making money to clear land! So much 💰!@PaQuilter1A chatty bunch?! Us? Noooo silent as the tombs in here🤫🤐😶Notice the change of two careers so I too have decided that this quest is NOT worth it! I can be in a constant state of worry about making the events. I did win a second bar this early morning and wish that I could sell it or give it to someone! EA has us chasing our tails once again !

When I saw that one of the quests was to use 2000 ribbons, I figured that's all I was going to spend. Might not even finish the quest if I don't get at least 1 of the rare items after opening 8 boxes... I have 4000 stashed right now, so if I get common items and dupes, that's all I'm going to do. The classy beverage shelf will do just fine for me lol.And maybe it's just me, but I get tired of repeating the same events during a quest.

I agree. This seems like a poorly thought out and rushed piggy back on the last event. I love the neon lights but other than that it’s just meh. Only positive is it gives us something new to talk about since I am so far behind on old threads I will never get to the current pages!

@mamabearboys I know right! If you miss a day or two it takes forever to get caught up. We are a chatty bunch. I say that with much affection. 😁💜

The only thing I really want is the hot dog suit and it is so rare that it isn't even worth trying for.

I agree the neon sign is the only cool thing here. Disappointed in the clothes, and wasn't the hot dog suit part of the Summer BBQ event too? I didn't love it then and don't love it now either lol

@BlueWizardRob same here with the Hotdog suit. It is very rare and almost impossible to get. This game is costing more than the PC game which has all this stuff. I'm giving up on the quest and have no desire to complete it. This is twice now they have done this with the hotdog suit .
