Sims International Film Festival

The Sims International Film Festival was created in 2010 as a way to foster creativity in The Sims community through machinima, an art form that uses video game footage to make movies. Over the years, as new entries in The Sims franchise were released and new editing methods became available, we’ve seen a lot of changes, but one thing has remained constant: our commitment to showcasing the creativity of this community and inspiring new artists.

Voting Issues and Extension

Voting Issues and Extension

I want to say this is a good news bad news sort of thing, but it’s not. I’m not sure it qualifies. I mean, the bad news is several issues were found with the polls and playlists that have affected the polls, the good news is that it’s all finally fixed…24 hours before the polls close. That’s not going to do.

We really do try our hardest to keep things as fair as possible and in this case it means…

Some Rule Bending
