SimNaNo 2022: Sign Up

Post by Livvielove »

Sign-ups will remain open all through July!

Hello all! Please be sure you read and understand SimNaNo 2022 Rules before proceeding! Here is where we'll be hosting SIGN-UPS for the event. All questions should be asked in the Coffeehouse! When it's time to start posting (on July 1st), you'll post your updates on the Update Thread. So, without further ado, here's how you sign up!
Please post in this thread with your:
:check: Story Name
:check: Link to the story's Boolprop link (if one is available)
:check: Your Personal Goal for SimNaNo (this is required for official sign ups!)
:check: A little bit about why you picked the goal you did (not required, but highly encouraged so we can support each other!)
:check: If you want a different name other than your FORUM name used on your progress banner, please indicate that!

Code: Select all

 :check:  [b]Story Name:[/b] 
 :check:  [b]Link:[b] 
 :check:  [b]Personal Goal:[/b] 
 :check:  (Optional) [b]Why did you choose your personal goal?:[/b] 
 :check:  [b]Name for your Banner:[/b] 
If you ever wish to change your goal, please put it in a separate post in this thread! If you wish to be doubly safe, feel free to PM me as well with it, but it must be in this post as a NEW reply so that I can see it. I won't be checking old posts on here to see if they've been edited (that'd be a lot of work for me to do) and I want to be sure I can accommodate everyone's goals as they change and grow over the month.

Remember if you're having trouble setting a personal goal, here's some examples provided from the rules:
Spoiler:
Hi, I have my Ghibli Legacy, which averages about 1,500 words and 100 pictures per update. I feel I can easily do 5 updates in a month, so let me challenge myself and say 7 updates, which would total 10,500 words and 700 pictures.

I'd like to sign up with Where the Willow Walks, which I can usually do about 5000 words and 120 pictures per chapter. I've done 3-4 chapters in a month and I kind of push my limits, so I'm happy settling on between 3 and 4 for this! Let's do 17,000 words and 350 pictures!

Hello, I'm starting a new story and HERE is the link where it'll be. As I'm starting new, I'd like to challenge myself to write 10,000 words this month and 175 pictures. I have no trouble writing, but I want to challenge myself on my images specifically, so my goal will be emphasizing that!

I'm starting a new challenge for this, and HERE'S the link! I tend to not be very verbose in my challenges, so I'd like to just do a picture goal. Let's say 1,000 pictures! I can easily do 100 pictures an update, and I'd love to do 10 updates this month! Let's do this!

I've got a story I'd like to do this with, and HERE is that link for you! I don't really like taking pictures that much, as my game can be slow and sometimes it doesn't show what I want, but I want to challenge me to write more! I'm setting my goal to be 25,000 words! I'd love to do half a NaNoWriMo normally! I'm up for the challenge!

:check: Story Name: Fleet of Foot: A Super Speedy Legacy

:check: Link: https://boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?t=7902

:check: Personal Goal: My legacy updates are usually about 500 words with around 25 pictures. I feel comfortable with doing weekly updates but to challenge myself, I'll bump it up to six updates which totals 3500 words and 150 pictures.

:check: Why I Chose My Personal Goal: I really want to get back into playing the Sims 4 and finally complete a legacy! Since this one is going by so quick, I want to make good progress with it.

:check: Story Name: The Duchelli Legacy
:check: Link: https://boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?t=7759
:check: Personal Goal: Lately I have been posting about 1200-1300 words and 50-60 pictures per post, and I was posting at least once a week before I hit the wall during exams, so I want to push myself to make at least 6 posts in total, 7500 words and 350 pictures. :party:
:check: Why did you choose your personal goal?: I had been really productive and posting once a week or more, until I hit exams and some health issues. I want to get back in the groove and update regularly again - but I will also be on vacation :sun: from the 11th to the 17th so I won't get anything done then.

:check: Story Name: Frankenstein Monster Mash (main focus) & The Holt Legacy
:check: Link: Frankenstein Monster Mash, The Holt Legacy
:check: Personal Goal: 15 posts, 900 pictures, 18 000 words
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: I've been a little slow on updates lately, as a result I have a huge backlog of pictures, I'm hoping this will motivate me to make a dent in my backlog. My main story will be the Frankenstein Monster Mash, but I've included the Holt Legacy since I have 4 posts left in the current generation to write and I really want to finish it.

:check: Link: https://ciyrosesachievementinsanity.wordpress.com/
:check: Personal Goal: 3 updates/6620 words/230 pics
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: This challenge has been a lot of fun to start but can take a while to get through updates, so I want to try and push myself to get 3 out this next month. They tend to be slightly large updates (around double my normal) but I haven't gotten a ton of playing in lately so I'm really hoping to use NaNo to get me a little more into the swing of things again

:check: Personal Goal: 800 pictures / 25,000 words (approx. 10 posts)
:check: Why did you choose your personal goal?: This story turns ten years old in July so I need a big ol' kick in the pants lol. My average post is about 80 pictures and 2,500 words, so I'll shoot for ten. I usually do a birthday special on July 12th, so I'll include that in my total if my regular posts are running short!

:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: Considering I haven't updated this challenge since december, I think expecting 4 updates in a month from myself is a big challenge this year and I will do my bestest. Who knows, if I'm on a roll, I'll raise the bar! but I doubt it

:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: I'm going to be pretty busy in July, but I still wanted to sign up with a small goal to keep myself going. If I can manage at least one update, that keeps me on track for being able to finish my summer challenge on time. The previous update was a little longer than what I picked for my goals for pictures and words, so I think the ballpark should be right.

:check: Personal Goal: 7 Updates (total goal 6,000 words for this story)
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: I've been wanting to get back to this story for a very long time, this is a good time for it.
:check: Name for your Banner: IllusoryThrall/Wyldhawke

:check: Story Name: "Sliding Sideways"
:check: Link: viewtopic.php?t=7920
:check: Personal Goal: 7 Updates (total goal 6,000 words for this story)
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: This is a brand new story I'm trying to get off the ground. I figured SimNaNo is a good time to do it!
:check: Name for your Banner: IllusoryThrall/Wyldhawke

:check: Story Name: (Various - I don't think it's useful to name all 10+ stories individually, since they'll only be getting 1-3 ish updates for each)
:check: Link: They'll all be on my website, with secondary posts on boolprop. I'll be sure to link each chapter when it's posted.
:check: Personal Goal: Total goal of 18,000 words for these
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: This is my "main" goal, honestly. I have a LOT of stories in my drafts folder that have pictures, but no words. And some of them have been sitting there for more than a year and a half. Which is why I want to brush up on my skills and dust off all these old stories, and get them all caught up - then get them started up again so I can continue to update them.
:check: Name for your Banner: IllusoryThrall/Wyldhawke

:check: Personal Total Goal: 30 updates, at least 1000 total pictures, and 30k words. Also: a minimum of 2-3 story-based sims streams a week, at about 4 hours each. (So, at least 32-40 hours of Sims gameplay streamed. The stories streamed will be my on-stream stories, not the blogged ones.)
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: 30 updates comes out to about one per day. I usually get around 20 pictures per post, so I'm challenging myself to get more than the 600 that that would add up to. My posts are usually 800+ words, I'd like to try to get them to around 1k each.. or, at least, post enough chapters to add up to the 30k total words.

:check: Story Name: Fire of the Olympics + Probably I'll Sprinkle one or two updates for another challlenges, but this will be the main focus
:check: Link: https://boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?t=7892
:check: Personal Goal: 6 Updates, 700 pictures, 15,000 words
:check: (Optional) Why did you choose your personal goal?: This is my first year working full time during SimNaNo, so I'm a little worried about how much time to play/write I'm gonna have. Still, I've been doing good updating various challenges lately, so I mainly want to keep up that pace. I'll see as the challenge progresses if I need to get bigger goals :)
