Anyone had any luck with this one? Closest I've gotten is 4 Masters and an Adept for a villager. Parenting is the one I cannot get a Master for.

Help including spoilers would be appreciated.

Speed Kissing! it's what I have done with my oldest and only male of the original adult and his prefered wife when she was more than 50 years old!
(Speed Kissing: drop the one you want to see becoming master parent to the other villager, without waiting they go in the hut, several time, again and again)

Thanks! I hadn't thought of that one and you'd think I'd would from playing the first two VV games repeatedly. DUH! <smacks forehead>

Master parent took forever! as well as speed kissing I kept dropping my esteemed elder (a runner !) on a kid and he would ' tell a story' and improve at parenting. I alternated between the kissing a 50 year old and telling stories with the occasional bit of research and finally he made it. Good Luck.

I just lost my Jack of all Trades this morning, to old age. I really enjoyed her as she was my first runner. By the time she was over child bearing, she was already an adept parent, so I just kept having her tell the children stories and I speed kissed with her to get her to master parent.

Just Do a man making kiss many times with a woman over the age of 50

The telling-stories route is too slow for my patience. My guy must have told a hundred stories, "improving" essentially every time--and MAYbe advanced one segment on Parenting . . . maybe not.

Speed-kissing is far, far more efficient; each improvement comes immediately, not after several seconds, and each success seems to be a bigger part of a segment--less than a hundred kisses filled in enough more segments for the JoAT Award.

It was amusing that my post-menopausal mama is one of the most beautiful Virtual Villagers I've ever seen--lovely face, little blue flower in her hair, the bodice to match and a beige skirt--while my guy is about as geeky as they come--too-big head, large green leaves in his hair, and a green outfit. Both have had stints as the tribal Doctor; she got her Adept degree in her spare time from assigned duties after I showed everybody in my small tribe Studying Medicine as an alternative to, say, Doing Laundry.
