Has anyone found any leaks (retail listings, code, etc) relating to any new packs?

I was hoping for a February GP because the silence until the June EP will be very long otherwise...
(Nothing for March and April because of the fiscal year ending/beginning and they have to get their numbers together. However, I can totally understand that.)

We don’t know if they’re still doing teasers. Tiny Living didn’t have a teaser.

Can someone please explain me (and potential others) what "fiscal year" means. Everybody says it, but I still don't know what it is.

I don't understand why they won't release anything in those months.

It's a year that doesn't necessarily start on January 1st (it can be April, July, or October 1st - the beginning of a quarter) and it's used for budget purposes.
So companies will draw up budgets for, for example, the year between April 1 2020 and March 31 2021 and report their finances for that period instead of January to December.

Since in March they're working on a budget for the upcoming year and in April they're totaling the income from the previous one, keeping those clear of any new releases makes the number crunching easier.

Thanks for the explanation :).

I don't think it's a logic I agree on though. Many other small and big companies sell stuff all the time every day all year around and they have no problems making statistics about what have been sold at any given time. It's just a matter of gathering data and analyzing data and I'm pretty sure EA has a team that only does that. It shouldn't effect game developing or marketing because other teams are working on that.

Sim Guru Ninja just got a new cover picture on his Twitter profile. It shows his sim self but in a wierd position. At first glance it just looks like his sim is in Strangerville being wierd but when you look at the background you can see some dark purble flowers I haven't seen in the BB catalog. What do you guys think? May be a hint of some sort.

It's not, it's from Strangeville, your looking too much into it.

You are probably right but I feel like it’s always fun to notice details when the gurus suddently change something.

We know from previously that anything can be a hint like for instance they talked about how cosyyy they were going to be over the holidays and then we got TL in January based on the Danish concept “hygge” which means “cosy”.

Omg I just saw it!! I guess it could be from strangerville but why would he change it to that suddenly? The background didn't look like strangerville. Not to me anyways. Hmmmmmmm...... I could be reaching but i agree they do toss out hints here and there. Honestly though if not zombies I don't have a clue of what it could mean ???
