I GOT IT!!!!!! The last bug!!!!!!!!!!!! And ya know, it wasn't a rare one after all...it was an uncommon one! Woke up this morning, checked on my peeps and it started to rain. So I'm having my two elderly peeps clean up a little while scanning the area and lo and behold...I see a bug...and I thought...I THINK that's the one I need...dragged my mom onto to the bug and it said "you found a new uncommon item"!!!!!!! I watched her walk all the way to the cabinet! How great it was to see those 3 awards pop up on the screen!

Now I only need 3 more: 6 socks, 11 spots and the perfect match.

BTW, this is my longest running family...but only gen 8 as they're paused 4 days a week while I'm at work.

Congrats ajuma! That's really wonderful news

I'm looking forward to seeing more of these success stories hit this topic, it's very encouraging to keep scanning the yard for those bugs.

I ended up using a collectibles mod to differentiate between common, uncommon and rares so I don't get my hopes up when I see one pop up.

Ajuma, that is awesome.....and in only 8 generations. Wonder if
that may be some kind of record for bug collecting? I have needed one of all but coins in one family for what seems forever.
By the way, used two rain bottles today. One gave me absolutely
nothing [bah, boo, etc.] and the other only a few commons.
Depressing.
But how great to be able to celebrate your success!

Thanks! I got the last bug during a regular rainstorm, not the weather machine or the bottled rain. I use the collectables mod too, since my eyes aren't what they used to be! Like Arnie, I kept seeing bugs that weren't bugs! I also had a hard time seeing the green wrappers in the kid's room, as they blended in with the floor and the toys so well!

I'll send good vibes everyone's way...those missing collectables WILL show up!!

I got a bit bored with my 5 families. All of them needed the dragonfly, and one needed the fire stopper, I had all the upgrades for all of them. I read about the rainbow haired family so thought I would keep the one family that had 96 trophies waiting for those last two bugs moth and dragonfly and lottery. Then started over on the other 4. What was the very first bug?!!!? The dragonfly. Could not believe it. Now that is only with one family, but I thought I would share. Plus it was not hard at all to see. Having fun starting over and do it right the 1st time.

YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'VE GOT THE LAST BUG!!!!!!!

I'M SO SO SO SOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here she is: Liliana and the Dragonfly!!!

Now it's just one trophy to go!!!

YAY ME!!!!!

Hurray!!!!!

Moonlyght, oodles of congratulations. Think I am going to learn
to just bask in everyone elses bug glory :grin
Perhaps I will be able to do some concentrated 'bugging' this
weekend.....so storing up all those wonderful vibes to help.

Moonlyte!!! I'm so happy for you!!!! It's so great when people get the bugs they need. When I was waiting for my last one, I kept watching this topic, hoping that other's success would rub off on me....and it did!!! Jeresandy, Lyssaria,Gmomluvsvv, and all you others waiting for "just one more" hang in there! You'll get them!

Gmom, yes it was only 8 generations, but for 7 of the weeks of playing, my game was paused from Monday morning until Thursday afternoon, as I have to live in 2 places for my job. Actually it took about 15 weeks. I'm not sure how many days it takes for one generation. Anyone know?

I calculated it to be around a week for one generation depending on how long your peeps live and whether the last child is still in the house after the parents pass away or not

For example, a 60 year old couple who started off at age 25 that passes away lived for 122.5 hours which translates into 5 days.

I haven't checked for bugs in a while but I'll remember to never give up on them, thanks for the encouragement ajuma

Major congrats to Moonlyght, you are so close to having those 100 trophies!
