Growing Together SimGuru/Maxis-Sourced Info

GROWING TOGETHER SIMGURU/MAXIS-SOURCED INFO

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps source info! Your links and quotes are enormously appreciated, and I’ll try to get them into the p. 1 posts as soon as possible. If any of you see stray SimGurus on Reddit, I’d particularly appreciate links to there.

Thanks as well for keeping the thread to links and quotes only, and only to official sources — these threads can sometimes move fast even on topic, depending on the marketing plan for a pack. This is NOT a discussion or questions thread. I’ll link out to other particularly active threads for that.

For those of you new to these threads, what I do is gather in one place things that Maxis or SimGurus (Maxis staff) say about a pack. When I first started doing these -- so that I had links to these things myself, because I was involved in a lot of Forum discussions at the time -- that often meant quotes and links from elsewhere on the Forums. These days, it’s mostly Twitter, plus recaps of livestreams and quotes from blog posts.

For those of you who’ve been here a long time, what’s new is that I’m no longer active on Twitter except for posting links to my new threads. (I used to also retweet new info there.) If you’ve also dropped Twitter and want links to new threads, you can follow me on Patreon for email alerts.
