Mfarhanonline Social Media News: When it was launched in August, The Sims Social was the toast of Facebook . This social network-based version of the classic Will Wright game, where you get to guide your avatars toward the twin goals of advancing their careers and acquiring more stuff, was pretty damn hot. A month after release, it had overtaken nearly all those Zynga games at the top of the Facebook tree. Only CityVille remained more popular. Fast forward to January, and that early growth hasn’t quite panned out. The Sims Social has settled into 4 million players a day, according to metrics firm App Data — impressive numbers, but down from the 4.6 million players it had daily at launch, and below such Zynga hits as FarmVille , Castleville and Words With Friends . But that doesn’t mean the Sims haven’t racked up some impressive stats on Facebook. Herewith, an infographic from Electronic Arts offers everything you wanted to know about The Sims Social but were afraid to ask: How many times Sims have sex daily (a PG-rated, sheet-covered activity known in the game as “woohoo”), how often those gossipy avatars share secrets, and what the most popular personality traits and shopping items are. So the EA game may not have toppled Zynga, but with this kind of activity — and 22 million users logging in a month — it’s hard to say it isn’t still a hit, with a solid fan base.
