Food you can eat Pre-Culinary

We clarified what you can make/eat after Naturalist is clear but before Culinary is clear. After Naturalist you can eat anything you can grow or fish but it can't use the stove/oven. If you can make it with the grill or not cook it at all (fresh produce, autumn salad) then you can make/eat it. All other Culinary restrictions still apply! So even if you have fish in your inventory or on your lot, you can only make food once per day.

RULE CHANGE: PLACING PETS FOR ADOPTION

RULE CHANGE: UNWANTED PET DISPOSAL

It has come to our attention that the primary way we thought you would be able to "Make Room for Daddy" by moving unwanted pets out of your household doesn't work as expected. Therefore we are revising the method to place unwanted pets up for adoption. I hope this is early enough that we haven't caused undo angst with all those adorable but pesky slot taker uppers....Without further ado below is the new way to go about this:

Use your phone to "Place Pet for Adoption." The pet you want to place for adoption must be 'adoptable' and have a sponsor. Why would anyone take them otherwise? Calls may only be placed on Monday or Thursdays until Communications is clear.

Your pet's sponsor is your Best Friend. In order to place a pet for adoption you need to have a unique Best Friend for each pet. (If you have two pets to place for adoption, you must have two Best Friends) Once Espionage is clear, your Pet no longer needs to have a sponsor. People are much more trustworthy.

Until Business is clear your pet must be a Level 10 Hunter or each pet must have at least 3 of the traits below:
* Aggressive
* Genius
* Hunter
* Loyal
* Neat
* Non-destructive
* Quiet

UNIVERSITY CAMPUS DEFINITION - CLARIFICATION

CLARIFICATION: ATTENDING UNI - WHERE YOU CAN GO

We talk about the 'campus' being unrestricted but we didn't define the campus. We did before, but we misplaced the definition, but it has been found so we are once again defining the campus...

So...You may go anywhere on campus while at University and there is no curfew except on the dreaded zombie days. Of course you do have to friends to go to visit another student's dorm - provided it is ON campus. So what IS the campus? The picture below shows where the campus boudaries are or go to the University Life link in the Wiki here: http://ts3ac.wikispaces.com/University+Life

WORLD ADVENTURES BUSINESS LIFT CLARIFICATION

CLARIFICATION: Business via World Adventures

There was some confusion around what you can and can't do with the items you collect during your adventures when completing Business via the Multinational Conglomerate (WA) method.

These items essentially amount to your "pay" for doing the job. So you can ONLY "sell" them when you return home each week. You never get to keep them with the exception of any gnomes you might stumble across while abroad.

So we clarified it to say that in a more straight forward fashion instead of a round about fashion. And while in France check out the fashions!!!

The full restriction is found under Weekly Stipend here: http://ts3ac.wikispaces.com/Business

UNIVERSITY START CLARIFICATION

TOURNAMENT CLARIFICATION: UNIVERSITY STARTS

We haven't changed any rules so don't panic! We just 'clarified' them....but that might mean to you that we changed them...but I promise we didn't...

We reorganized the new Uni Start options on the University Life page to help better understand what you could and couldn't do and when you could and couldn't do it...Soooo...

If you want to do a Uni Start, whether Higher Education or How Much Time Do I Have? then this should help you understand what you can and can't do and when you can and can't do it along with what you can and can't do when you come home....AND....if another sim other than the founder goes what they can and can't do and when they can and can't do it....Ugh....

Now that that is all cleared up....I used that twice in a row... is that allowed????

It must be two days before the tournament starts....and for those that are too confused by my that's and cant's to navigate the wiki page I am referring to, here is the link to the University Life page: http://ts3ac.wikispaces.com/University+Life

AGE POTIONS AND 90 DAY RULE REMOVAL

RULE UPDATE: AGE REVERSING POTIONS AND 90 DAY RULE FIX

We have been struggling with how to manage long-lived occults and aging potions. In the past we implemented a 90-day kick out rule. We are dispensing with that rule. This is how we are going to do that:

NEW RULE: No sim in the current household may use the Young Again Potion, Young Again LTR, Fountain of Youth Elixir or Ambrosia to reverse their age. You MAY use it on any NPC sim or a sim that is married into the household on the FIRST day they become a part of the household.
Ambrosia may be used on non-playable ghosts only to resurrect them.

These potions/elixirs will all be restricted by Paranormal as well as other restrictions. The full list of restrictions around when you can use or make these items has been updated on the applicable sections of the Wiki and will be in the final spreadsheets that will be uploaded on Wednesday.

Note: Eating Life Fruit or Drinking from the Fountain of Youth is not included in this restriction. Only Ambrosia and the three potions.

90 DAY RULE FIX: We have established a table for using the Birthday Cake to age up sims according to which Occult Setup you chose. You will find this table in each Occult Category.
For example: you are playing Somewhere Over the Rainbow and you move in or even start with a vampire, you will have to age up your vampire to Elder with the Birthday Cake when they are 65 days to Adult. This means they will have two birthdays on the same day. Should they come in older than 65 days to Adult, then they must be aged up immediately to Elder by using the Birthday Cake twice unless you happen to have one of the age reversal potions or ambrosia to feed them.

Communications: Jack of All Trades Update

RESTRICTION UPDATE: COMMUNICATIONS

We realized the Base Game method - Jack of All Trades - was too difficult to clear in a reasonable amount of time so we tweaked it a bit. The new method is as follows:
Reach level 4 in Science, Business and Criminal
Max Logic and Charisma Skills
Complete 3 of the 5 Charisma Skill Challenges
