@XDJSIMMERX Pictures, yay! It's interesting that Phoebe is friends with Penny Pizzazz, she's like my least favourite sim so I rarely have my sims befriend her. Love the picture with J in panic mode William, though he's not so happy in that picture, looks like a cutie! I personally don't like Oliver's hair for male toddlers but it's just a personal preference so it doesn't really matter Congrats on the triplets and the upgraded kitchen! Looks much better than Margo's, she still has the cheap, basic kitchen from the beginning of the challenge. Naturally, Margo is my favourite of your triplets as well but hey, that's probably because she's got a name I really like Though Penny and Evelyn sure are nice names too!
@Fizzstix I'm jealous of @XDJSIMMERX's triplets as well. Margo's triplets were actually pretty easy to handle and so I can't wait for her to have another set of them
@SpiritOfSakura Hi You can keep them around but they do occupy a spot in the household and so the challenge will probably take you a bit longer than if you were to move out all young adults. As long as they're not your matriarch or a hair they can have a career as well, however once you moved them out you can't move them back in. Unfortunately for the base game there's only the fertility trait and maybe the on ley line lot trait, you'd need addons for herbalism and the massage. Have fun with the challenge Feel free to show pictures or keep us updated in the thread here.
@Mareviola Gena is a beautiful name! I generally prefer to save up to buy the expensive stuff as well, especially showers and beds.

for the glitch above you can also go click on the sim press more click actions and add to group then there will be the option to ask them to leave
Next time one of the fathers come I'll try it!!

And I personally don't like having twins or triplets from a challenge standpoint.

Hahaha just figured out the best trick for getting food for the toddlers. Instead of leaving food out on the counter to spoil (I hate the high chairs when the toddlers can get food off the counters) you can buy a bakery display and since it's refridgerated you can put food in there and the toddlers can just take whenever they want and it lasts a whole lot longer. It doesn't last as long as say putting it in the actual fridge but with the way my family eats the food is gone before it spoils.
Personally I want as many twins and triplets as I can get so it's bothering me a lot. Also, having only single girls makes the challenge easier and longer simultaneously and that's also not something I like very much I'm just going to randomize the count, I can't be bothered to move over the family into a new savefile, especially not since it had been going so well so far.
Oh, also Mortimer came over and is now hanging out at my place

@petunia302007 Hi there! Good luck and have fun with your challenge, if you have any questions feel free to ask I'm excited that you're taking on the immortal matriarch challenge. Personally I'm still not yet sure if I want to do that or just the normal challenge, both have their charm.

@CactiSimmer I wasn't sure if I could change it while I was a new member but now that I'm a member I went and changed it! and I added a signature.. which I should update once I get more kids but something tell me I'll forget!
@Erica87 It is easier. But since we aren't forced to get the fertility trait (the only thing you can do with the base game to have more chance of twins) I don't get it. I prefer using aspirations point in other things (not the free service tho! I stayed away from that one ). The point is as glitches go it's not a bad one. At least it doesn't make the challenge more difficult. I might make it repetitive and maybe boring, tho.
@petunia302007 having a lot of immortal children around might take the spot for others baby daddies. How does it work? A vampire mother and a human father make an hybrid baby or they can be full vampire, hybrid or full human? and how does it work with hybrids? are they immortal?

@petunia302007 There's an elixir with which you can cure vampires. If you'd rather not have a ton of immortal kids in your town you could always use it before they move out. That would be an additional challenge though because I'm not sure how the cure is created.
@Mareviola I still think having only female kids would be incredibly boring and it'd take all the fun out of the challenge so I'd rather not have the glitch over having it. I mean, at some point I'm going to have no more girl names or outfits and then it'll start to just be repetitive. I'd rather use cheats to fix the glitch instead of just living with it and having a completely bland and boring challenge.

So, I had to start a new save file because mine was being super buggy and making it hard to play. I actually uploaded the current family to the gallery and starting a new save that way- just had to cheat in how much money they had before starting over. So, if you noticed some suspect names near the bottom of my list, that's why! I also last track of one of my child's fathers because I forgot to double check before starting fresh. I know it wasn't a "normal" townie though so I don't expect to accidentally double dip. I don't remember where I left off last time I posted, but here is my current run-down:

I had a real crapshow go down recently- a real series of unfortunate events! First of all, my game has a weird lag since toddlers- I'll direct Emily (mom) to do something like bathe or potty train and she'll stand there frozen for 30-60 minutes of Sim time before she gets moving. That makes it challenging to keep the toddler's needs up! On top of that, my game becomes unplayable from about 8-8:30 in the morning when the kids go to school, making it so I can't queue up any actions or even switch Sims. I'm just setting the stage here.
So as you can see, my matriarch had triplets with Malcolm. He was an elder at the time so I was happy to use him before he died. Emily was tired when the triplets were babies, but she was in really rough shape when they became toddlers. All my in-game glitches really weren't helping matters. We were on the second or third day of toddlerhood when Malcolm saunters in and makes himself at home. I was annoyed at first, but then I decided I could just use him to try and get the triplets' needs up before trying to get rid of him. I have one of the tots ask him for a bath- and the jerk dies on me! Straight up kicks the bucket and leaves my entire household depressed. So on top of everything else, I have three toddlers who do nothing but cry. Goooood times. I needed a long break after that madness.
@simmerkayla Wow, it's incredible that you're on your third matriarch already! And half the challenge is done... I'm still impressed about how fast you are As for the crapshow... Wow, just wow. That's just about the worst combination of unfortunate events one could have to deal with in this challenge. Frankly, I think I'd go mad if I was in your situation But maybe I can help a little... The lag you're talking about, if you have it the next time check if the toddler is doing something at that moment. If they are, cancel the action and everything should move along normally. If this is a solution for you please tell me, then I'm gonna add it to the first post.

@Erica87 Thank you for mentioning the cure...but I think I'm going to use it on Bernice (matriarch) instead...and then have her kids buy endless youth potions for her...it's the least they can do! lol
I've been reading this thread for a few days, so I figured I should post. I had planned to try this challenge once I finished my Legacy, and wouldn't you know it - the toddler patch showed up as I was getting my generation 9 legacy heir pregnant. That obviously really affects a challenge like this, but I figured I'd still go for it!
My matriarch is now pregnant with her 8th baby, I think? Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say hi!
