Stacking has taken off in The Sims Social. Even today's Pic of the Day employs the power of stacking in a big way. But this just might be the coolest use of the stacking glitch yet: robots. (Playfish, please don't fix this anytime soon?) First, we have player Ferry Darmawan who used an MSS Hoojamaflip for a head, Hi-Fi System legs, a Haunted TV for its chest and backpack made possible by a Nice Cold Fridge.
The second robot (pictured below), created by player samuiiTSSindo, is a little less visually impressive, but features quite the finishing touch. This creation is essentially a robot made up of various cabinets with old TVs for shoulders and ... a Sim using the toilet for its head. Now that's what we call a brain fart--cue the rimshot. We're here all--ah, never mind.
Player base slowly in decline or not, the creative community in The Sims Social is thriving at this point. And that's a good sign that players are still digging the game. Do you have unique creations in The Sims Social? Then send us an email with an image of your work to editors@games.com and we'll try to feature it in our The Sims Social Pic of the Day. With legit DIY robots roaming around players' homes, you have quite a lot to live up to, so get to creating.

The Sims Social: Go (RED) for World AIDS Day with a free Poster for your home
World AIDS Day is on December 1 and to celebrate, the folks at EA/Playfish have teamed up with (RED), the organization fighting for a cure for AIDS in Africa (and on a worldwide scale), to raise awareness about the (RED) Campaign in the Sims Social on Facebook.
This cross-promotion is presented via a free item that you can claim for your home by liking the (RED) Facebook page (or at least going to it) and then clicking on the "Claim Red Poster" button at the bottom of the page. This will load a new browser window, telling you that you've received your free poster, which can then be found in your inventory. Once you take the poster out of your inventory, you'll find that it has a value of $500 for your home.
As an aside, if you happen to play Sims 3 on your PC / Mac, you can also claim some free (RED) items. One is a duplicate of the (RED) poster that you can receive in the Sims Social, while another is a (RED) pattern.
We'll make sure to let you know when other cross-promotions arrive in the Sims Social, or when other free items are up for grabs. Keep checking back!

The Sims Social celebrates fans with a week of free stuff
Free stuff? Yes, please, I'll take some of that! With almost 61 million players (and climbing), the folks at EA / Playfish have a lot to be thankful for when it comes to the Sims Social on Facebook. As a way to thank their ever-growing player base for their support (even when the game suffered from some nagging loading and gameplay issues), the developers have launched a week long celebration involving free stuff that will be given away, apparently on a daily basis.
To start, we're given a gift of Social Points - a whopping 400 Social Points at that. Since your other methods of earning Social Points normally come in small increments (of 10 or less per action) when visiting friends, this really is a substantial prize. Remember, these Social Points work as a form of third currency in the game, and can be used to purchase exclusive decorations or other home items that aren't available through any other method or currency.
We've also been told that we'll be able to increase our land size in the future, although that wasn't exactly announced in as many words. To be specific, we're asked if we "need more space to build your dream home" and that with that question comes a secret that the developers just couldn't hold in anymore. We're even asked "If you could expand your land, what is the first room you'd build on it?"
Put two and two together here, and you're left with the answer that land size will soon be increasing, although no particular release date was announced (unfortunately). If you're like me, your home has already filled most nooks and crannies of land in our admittedly small square, and is surrounded by outdoor goodies to boot. Being able to increase the size of our house plot is a huge deal, and we'll make sure to let you know when that feature / ability launches as soon as it does.
In the meantime, keep checking back with the game's Facebook fan page for additional links / announcements of free prizes, and click right here to claim your free 400 Social Points.
What sorts of prizes are you hoping to receive in this week-long event of free stuff? What will you purchase with your 400 free Social Points? Sound off in the comments.
