Christmas Simming Break

[Beketov 9,033]

Boy I can hear the negative reactions already....

 

I just wanted to throw a quick announcement out there in advance so that everyone doesn't get surprised by it. Our @Simmer team obviously works very hard all year to give the league nearly daily sims between the regular season, playoffs, and off season tournaments. There is a bit of time off here and there but for the most part it's a daily thing. We were hoping that playoffs would line up well with Christmas again like they did last year and provide us with an easy excuse to have a couple of days off for the holidays but sadly no dice this time around. For that reason we have decided that sims will be halted from tomorrow, December 24th, to resume on Monday, December 27th.

 

I know it is inconvenient to have 3 days without sims but as we frequently remind our members the simmers are not robots and need time as well so a holiday break is the least we can do. So enjoy the sims today, embrace a few days with family and friends (if possible, stupid covid) and we'll see you all on the 27th for more Regular Season action in the 3 leagues.

 

Thank You and Happy Holidays,

@Commissioner

Makes Sense, 

Merry Christmas Simmers and everyone else be safe and have a great break

I mean how could you be upset over simmers needing some time of for Christmas, really? Unless Jardy was still a simmer, then we could just all blame him.

Merry Christmas Gents, Enjoy your time off and we will see you after the break!

Just kidding. Happy holidays to the VHL staff, thank you for all that you guys do to make this such an awesome community. I hope you and your families have a great, safe holiday!!

Oh you sweet summer child, you have no idea how upset people can get over a lack of sims.

1. I told my son that the simmers were robots, so thanks for ruining the magic for that little boy.

 

2. My whole family was looking forward to seeing the Christmas simming results over dinner.  I hope you're happy.

This right here is outrageous. What do you mean taking time off from simming? As a GM I launch an official protest and I am going on a hunger strike. That means that throughout the time when simulations are halted, I refuse to eat any vegetables. Yes, you heard it right - I WILL NOT EAT ANY VEGETABLES FOR 3 FULL DAYS. 

I am hopeful that there will be some sort of compensation for me in terms of new job opportunities and I will receive a moral TPE compensation. 

*Also, have truly great time off and spend some wonderful moments with your families this holiday season @Beketov, @Joshand @Devise - you are doing tremendous job at Simming and being there for the VHL community, cheers!*

Seriously though, @Beketov, @Josh and @Devise take this well deserved break off and enjoy some quality time with whom ever you care to share same (I heard something called 'family' or 'dear ones' should be prime candidates for such occasions). Happy Holidays.

god dammit i couldn't wait to wake up christmas morning and look at the simming results. Can't believe that VHL would do this. #ChristmasRuined

[fishy 1,757]

anyway, glad to see that simmers are prioritizing themselves. would be great to see y'all get some time step away every year outside of the offseason. happy holidays!
