Do you play as your Simself?

I'm actually more of a 'most of the time', but I play her so frequently that I'm much closer to always rather than sometimes. The sim in my profile pic is a highly, (radically?) idealized version of me. So idealized that all we have in common is a first name and traits. And when I created the first version of her she wasn't intended to be a simself, it sort of happened over a couple of gameplay sessions. She has been a way to live vicariously through the stories and adventures I dream up for her.

I have a dozen, give or take, other sims I play, but she is quite often the one I grab to start a new save with.
