Hi!

I have several questions about marriage proposals.

The first is what might prevent them from coming? My adoptee for the new generation just moved in, a former child, and he hasn't gotten a proposal for 3 days. Is it because his house is messy? Is he unattractive (:P)? There are no issues; he is not married, he has lots of food, I have the newest version, etcetera.

One thing, a couple days ago I noticed my calendar on my mac was one day behind (daylight savings or something like that, I dunno) and I go to my game and everyone's way older. Is this what they mean by real time? Is this what's keeping my guy from getting a proposal?

And with my other family, a girl just moved in, for the new generation, and she hasn't gotten a proposal in 20 minutes. Does she have the same issue?

Thanks!

Time traveling is something that can damage your game. Daylight savings time might have something to do with it. Don't delete your families though. I had the same problem one time, but the guy got a proposal at 39!

Thanks for the help/advice! I turned off the 'automatic time set' option, and the guy got a proposal immediately! Still waiting for the girl, but it'll hopefully come.

Any other heads up about marriage proposals?

EDIT: I suppose it didn't. It must have been luck. Any other tips on the same topic?

Good!

Livilulu, what generation is that family in? Also, did you accept the proposal? If so, the wife would have immediately walked through the front door of the house.

I think Livilulu means they're still waiting to get a proposal in the game with the girl.

Exactly. This is happening to two families; my 34 year old man who just got married with a proposal at 31 (that's the problem, the proposals are coming late if ever) and he started the 3rd generation. The girl is a whole other family, she started the 4th generation, and she has not gotten any proposals for 2 days.

As VFLover09 stated in her post, time traveling can have serious consequences for your game (even when unintentional!) There's more information about that here. The time change to your mac could very well be what is causing the delayed proposals.

Since the game has a real-time engine, time changes of any sort can mess with the internal timing. You'll find a bit more detailed explanation in the link above, along with a few solutions.

Anyone know how many marriage proposals should come in one day?

It depends, usually they come within 15 minutes of each other, but they get rarer if you keep refusing them.

Thanks a BUNCH, the girl got the proposal and I'll make sure never to do that again. Thanks!
