Generally speaking, SB118 requires ten sims a month to be considered a "part time" | Generally speaking, SB118 requires at least ten sims a month to be considered a "part time" writer- any less than that (without reason) may be treated as an LOA. A "full time" writer generally sims every other day (fifteen a month, give or take) and some sim every day. Some sim more often than that... but that's far from required and, as discussed below, is sometimes undesirable. | ||
It's a casual observation that the more someone sims, the lower the quality and the shorter the length of the sim is. So sacrificing quality for quantity is obviously not desirable. However, someone who only sims twice a month- even if those sims are the bees knees- isn't desirable either. | It's a casual observation that the more someone sims, the lower the quality and the shorter the length of the sim is.

So each writer must find a balance, find what works for them. But no matter what you decide is best for you, membership in our group requires at least ten sims a month to be considered active- it's just not fair to your fellow simmers to sim any less. Generally speaking, these sims should be evenly spaced out (every few days), rather than a large burst of activity at the end of the month. | So each writer must find a balance, must find what works for them.

Consistently maintaining a sim count higher than the bare minimum (generally 20+ a month) and answering your tags with alacrity looks very good for promotion, keeps your character involved in the plot and allows for a much more fun simming experience for the whole crew. | Consistently maintaining a sim count higher than the bare minimum (generally 20+ a month) and answering your tags with alacrity looks very good for promotion, keeps your character involved in the plot and allows for a much more fun simming experience for the whole crew. |
