YAY. Palace of Versailles comes in less than an hour. Can't wait to get the second from last remaining set to own.
YAY congrats! I picked up Palace of Versailles this afternoon as well
Made it home just in time too. Had a lovely day out & about with my parents while hubs recovered from his last night shift... Got a bit too much sun, but it was the first nice day we've had all week, so was worth it.
Just figured I'd pop in before bed and see how everyone is doing... Happy DD stalking, everyone!
10 points were added to my account, I've only been watching one or two every couple of days to check if they were working (at that point they weren't). And now I don't see any ad buttons, hopefully they are fixing things but who knows.
As of April 24th 2015 I joined the own the store club. Thank you to those who helped in my journey. DD spreadsheet

They must be getting somewhere with trying to fix the missing sp's. I've only been clicking about 20 ads a day ( since they weren't paying anyway, why spend the day clicking ) and my total hadn't increased for the last two weeks. When I logged on earlier this afternoon, my total had increased by 190 sp. Just now checked and had another 95 sp added to my total. Of course, they're still behind by 715 sp but I'll take what I can get . Sure hope they all start pouring in for you all, too

I have a question that someone might help me with i wanna buy the SwiftGro Gardening Station since its on sale but the set isnt eligible for the Complete Your Set discount so would i have to purchase the whole set again even if i have an item from it? And how often do the items in the sale page of the store change? Also does Stones Throw Greenhouse, Grandpa's Grove,and Bohemian Garden appear in the daily deals section? If so what numbers
@Jerry4 Unfortunately, if a set isn't eligible for CYS, you have to pay full price for it no matter how much of it you own individually. Stones Throw Greenhouse is available on the daily deal rotation for 53% off at number 412, however, so you're not completely out of luck there.
Grandpa's Grove is available for 61% off at #495, but if you can wait about two weeks longer, you can get it for 72% off at #640.
Bohemian Garden is available for 47% off at #831, but, again, wait a while longer and you can snag it for 62% at the next rotation's #78.
Sorry to double post. It's the curse of the new member status.
@Jerry4 the sales page has been broken for nearly a year now. EA said they'd fix it, but, naturally, they never did. You can take advantage of the current sales, but it's going to be stuck showing those sales for the foreseeable future.
FYI: Stones Throw Greenhouse makes up a huge chunk of the Best of 2012 comp. I bought it last rotation for 798 SP and it gave me the rest of Best of 2012 for free. Definitely a worthwhile investment, since you're paying 760 or 798 SP for a set that's worth almost 6x that amount (since it costs 5832 SP to buy Best of 2012 outright).
Not a single ad in sight today... I hope this means they're fixing the ads (or getting rid of them altogether, since I'd prefer that to them constantly taunting me with free SP I'll never get).
I've been keeping track of my testing ads since June 11. I have tried out 80 points worth, I have been given 5 points as of today, June 27. And I can't access the store on computer's Chrome, I can access it on my phone's chrome though, despite clearing the cache in IE, which usually works.
Anyway, I FINALLY got my 9 gamepacks back so I can play my game save files from before they were blocked!!! I had to re-buy them through Steam, so 75% off was a great savings and took a lot of the sting out of having to repurchase 9 gamepacks!! I double checked to make sure Steam was an approved seller so I didn't mess myself up all over again! LOL EA did NOTHING to help me, only repeatedly told me the case was closed and I had to re-buy the packs. I even phoned them to ask them to make my account say I did not own the gamepacks, so I could re-buy them through Origin (which I did NOT want to do at full price, but was willing to at least buy a couple packs, and wait for sales on the rest, the person on the phone said they would do it, but here is the e-mail EA sent me:

Hello,
Email address: s******@pos************.com
We received your latest message regarding the action taken on your account. We have performed all investigations possible on this issue and will not reverse the decision.
Please do not expect further responses on this matter.
Thank you,
EA Terms of Service ----------
The person I talked to on the phone was extremely nice and not rude at all, I felt the e-mail was not helpful and a little rude!! So I went to Steam, bought all my gamepacks and redeemed the codes in Origin, and it worked!! I didn't even have to uninstall and re-download because it re-activated the games with the new codes. I am soooooo happy to have my games back!!
@Shannon4J I'm so thrilled that you finally got it all sorted, albeit at the cost of repurchasing the packs.
I've been away from my computer more than not. Actually catching up on some TV shows that I ignored all season while playing (obsessing over) my legacy family. All five of Jude and Jim's kids are adults and have moved out. I switched households to get the eldest to have kids and have just switched back to the now grandparents house to check out what actions/interactions Generations brings to that generation, along with actually playing elders for the first time.
I'd saved each child as they moved out of their house and intend to play them in future games from that point as I add various EPs back into my system. Each was "groomed" for a particular pack with specific traits and skills. I think traditionally a legacy family is played continually without back-stepping, and I may choose one child to do that with. But with five kids that would be leaving the EA continuity in charge of way too much and involve too much switching of active households. The game file would get out of control. Or I may create a master save of the game at this point and when I want to start a new game with a different kid go back to this point and just play that household with the parents and siblings on the periphery.
I dunno. I'm just impressed that I've gotten this far with a single family. And I think that it is largely due to the fact that my system doesn't continuously crash and make me start from the beginning. In the past that would usually make me just start a new game rather than replay the same character in the same story line.
Oh, and since I haven't been on I haven't been doing ads. But no blue box for me at the moment either. I had received one final response from Fyber insisting that if I'm getting points then I must have a user ID and that they would need it in order to help me. This even after I had sent screen shots of the store site showing the interface. So their customer dis-service reps must have been trained by the same people as those at EA/Origin on how to ignore the information we provide and stick to their script.

So, over 500 simpoints that was long overdue finally was put into my account after several days. I was at 400 simpoints for a while and woke up to 967 simpoints. FINALLY.
But, now the ads aren't popping up at all. At least I'm able to buy the last remaining needed items from the DD's with what points I have left. The individual items on my WL are gonna have to wait a lot longer, I guess.
Good to hear more points are trickling through! My simpoints have just jumped from 18 to 38 but I'm sure I'm owed well over a thousand. Honestly so disappointed with how long this has been taking, I've missed out on so many DDs I'd planned on getting. :/
@Shannon4J so thrilled to hear that you've got your games back (albeit at the expense of having to repurchase them). That email does sound incredibly rude and unhelpful. Ugh. When did that become the gold standard for customer (dis)service?
Between last night and this morning, 5 more SP were added to my account. But, as @luqural said, I am owed hundreds, if not thousands, from all the ads I watched. I haven't seen an ad yet this week, but am hoping this will all be sorted soon enough.
Glad to hear that some of you are getting credit for all those ads; I just wish I was as well.
The folks and hubs are still asleep, so figured I'd drop by and say hi while I have a chance.
Grabbed Best of 2010 this morning for free and got Ultra Lounge as well! Everyday should start like that
Some points are still coming in....but no ads in sight!

Thank you! :) Yes, everytime I did a livechat or a phonecall, the person I spoke with was respectful, and courteous and seemed to understand my plight. Then I would get an e-mail from EA and it was so rude! We all put up with this garbage because we love a game that is riddled with flaws, glitches, and issues! LOL
I've still only gotten the 5 points, no more and no ads available. I am on vacation and using my phone as a hotspot so I am not online as much as I am at home where I have a fast connection. :)

FYI: Stones Throw Greenhouse makes up a huge chunk of the Best of 2012 comp. I bought it last rotation for 798 SP and it gave me the rest of Best of 2012 for free. Definitely a worthwhile investment, since you're paying 760 or 798 SP for a set that's worth almost 6x that amount (since it costs 5832 SP to buy Best of 2012 outright).
Not a single ad in sight today... I hope this means they're fixing the ads (or getting rid of them altogether, since I'd prefer that to them constantly taunting me with free SP I'll never get).
Anyway, I FINALLY got my 9 gamepacks back so I can play my game save files from before they were blocked!!! I had to re-buy them through Steam, so 75% off was a great savings and took a lot of the sting out of having to repurchase 9 gamepacks!! I double checked to make sure Steam was an approved seller so I didn't mess myself up all over again! LOL EA did NOTHING to help me, only repeatedly told me the case was closed and I had to re-buy the packs. I even phoned them to ask them to make my account say I did not own the gamepacks, so I could re-buy them through Origin (which I did NOT want to do at full price, but was willing to at least buy a couple packs, and wait for sales on the rest, the person on the phone said they would do it, but here is the e-mail EA sent me:

The person I talked to on the phone was extremely nice and not rude at all, I felt the e-mail was not helpful and a little rude!! So I went to Steam, bought all my gamepacks and redeemed the codes in Origin, and it worked!! I didn't even have to uninstall and re-download because it re-activated the games with the new codes. I am soooooo happy to have my games back!!
My Top 5/My Wishlist
I've been away from my computer more than not. Actually catching up on some TV shows that I ignored all season while playing (obsessing over) my legacy family. All five of Jude and Jim's kids are adults and have moved out. I switched households to get the eldest to have kids and have just switched back to the now grandparents house to check out what actions/interactions Generations brings to that generation, along with actually playing elders for the first time.
I'd saved each child as they moved out of their house and intend to play them in future games from that point as I add various EPs back into my system. Each was "groomed" for a particular pack with specific traits and skills. I think traditionally a legacy family is played continually without back-stepping, and I may choose one child to do that with. But with five kids that would be leaving the EA continuity in charge of way too much and involve too much switching of active households. The game file would get out of control. Or I may create a master save of the game at this point and when I want to start a new game with a different kid go back to this point and just play that household with the parents and siblings on the periphery.
I dunno. I'm just impressed that I've gotten this far with a single family. And I think that it is largely due to the fact that my system doesn't continuously crash and make me start from the beginning. In the past that would usually make me just start a new game rather than replay the same character in the same story line.
Oh, and since I haven't been on I haven't been doing ads. But no blue box for me at the moment either. I had received one final response from Fyber insisting that if I'm getting points then I must have a user ID and that they would need it in order to help me. This even after I had sent screen shots of the store site showing the interface. So their customer dis-service reps must have been trained by the same people as those at EA/Origin on how to ignore the information we provide and stick to their script.
I own the store as of 1+7/17/17

But, now the ads aren't popping up at all. At least I'm able to buy the last remaining needed items from the DD's with what points I have left. The individual items on my WL are gonna have to wait a lot longer, I guess.

Between last night and this morning, 5 more SP were added to my account. But, as @luqural said, I am owed hundreds, if not thousands, from all the ads I watched. I haven't seen an ad yet this week, but am hoping this will all be sorted soon enough.
Glad to hear that some of you are getting credit for all those ads; I just wish I was as well.
The folks and hubs are still asleep, so figured I'd drop by and say hi while I have a chance.
Grabbed Best of 2010 this morning for free and got Ultra Lounge as well! Everyday should start like that
Some points are still coming in....but no ads in sight!

> @Shannon4J I'm so thrilled that you finally got it all sorted, albeit at the cost of repurchasing the packs.

Thank you!! :)
> @Shannon4J so thrilled to hear that you've got your games back (albeit at the expense of having to repurchase them). That email does sound incredibly rude and unhelpful. Ugh. When did that become the gold standard for customer (dis)service?

Thank you! :) Yes, everytime I did a livechat or a phonecall, the person I spoke with was respectful, and courteous and seemed to understand my plight. Then I would get an e-mail from EA and it was so rude! We all put up with this garbage because we love a game that is riddled with flaws, glitches, and issues! LOL
I've still only gotten the 5 points, no more and no ads available. I am on vacation and using my phone as a hotspot so I am not online as much as I am at home where I have a fast connection. :)
Enjoy your time with your parents! :)
