Still possible to get Gold on events?

There's a known bug (see here) where certain goals for parties/events cannot be fulfilled. It's any of the "Do X with Y Sims" type of goals (e.g. "Have 3 sims dance to stereo at the same time") - they don't work right now.
Anyway, my question is - has anyone managed to still get gold for Prestige events? I am playing a random legacy and one of the random generational goals I rolled was to obtain a gold medal for each type of party/event. I will reroll the generational goal if it's impossible to do this right now.
Edited to add: so I threw a birthday party... achieved every goal except "Have sims Dance at the Same Time"... stuck at silver. So the answer is at this time, sadly, no, not for all parties.
Edited again: YAY! It's fixed!!!

I was playing a household of 4. I had 3 of them playing chess, while one sim started the social event. I got the “Have 3 sims playing games at the same time” task completed right away because of that. So unless I’m remembering wrong, that’s something you can try. If you don’t have 3 or 4 sims in that household, you can try inviting the guests normally, do something together with them, plan the social event while making sure to invite the ones already in the place you’re partying at, and hope that you guessed right. If not, save and reload if it really bothers you, then do something with them again and hope you get it right this time. I didn’t test this extensively as I didn’t want to waste time reloading and would rather just wait for a fix.
I rarely host a party that isn’t a house, dinner, or dance party so I can’t speak for the other parties, but house and dinner parties always seem to give you a task that requires 3 sims doing something at the same time right from the beginning. I’ve hosted a few house and dinner parties since the issue, but I’ve been unable to get gold unless I complete at least one of those tasks that appear in the beginning. So unless the workaround succeeds for you, it may be impossible to get gold. I don’t know how the Party Place lot trait works specifically, but it helped a previous poster so you can try hosting a party in a lot with that trait. I’ve already stopped hosting parties until the issue is fixed, or I just don’t make it a prestige event (I’m a perfectionist. I need gold dangit).
