SimMaster of the Month: May 2005

Get to know the site moderators! The Sims 2 community is large and growing. We have some fabulous moderators on the site who help other simmers in need, keep things running smoothly, moderate the boards, and help enforce the rules that Maxis has set up. Our SimMasters are players just like you. Each month we'll be asking one of our SimMasters some questions so you can get to know them better.

This month we talk to May's SimMaster of the month, the helpful and hilarious SimMasterKat!

Hi SimMasterKat. How long have you been a SimMaster?
Since December 3rd, 2003

When did you start playing The Sims?
Late 2000 but I didn't go onto the BBS until sometime 2001 - it was scary and I didn't know what buttons to press.

What is your favorite part of the Sims 2?
I love so much of the game it's really hard to narrow it down. I used to build more than I played generally with TS1 but now I'm more an all rounder. I love the customizable options and Bodyshop. Oh, and I love the new build bits too

What is your favorite thing about being a SimMaster?
Pretty much what I loved about being on the BBS before. Chatting to people, helping out where I can and having a giggle. There are some cracking people on the boards.

What is one thing you've learned from being a SimMaster?
Patience, and to not take things personally.

What's your favorite weapon in a food fight?
Rock cakes made to my grandmother's recipe, take out a bull elephant with those babies!

Any advice or tips for your fellow Simmers?
Use search. You can often get the answers a lot quicker that way. Boring I know, but someone's already done the whole sunscreen thing

These are the best general tips I've ever had:

• Dip your carpet slippers in egg and roll them in bread crumbs. Bake in the oven until golden brown and then tell your friends you're wearing Findus Crispy pancakes.
• For a cheap alternative to chewing gum why not cover an elastic band with toothpaste.

Thanks for Chatting with us SimMasterKat!

We would like to thank everyone that submitted their work to the Sims 2 Nightlife Style Contest. We have our work cut out for us as we received over 1000 entries from North America alone! We will be brewing some extra coffee as we are currently in the process of reviewing them all.
