Latest Survey (about a new mobile Sims game!)

Post by Perturbee »

Hi,

Some of you might have gotten the announcement in game that there is a new survey. When tapping it, it doesn't always seem to give the actual survey and claims you might have filled it in already.
(Yes, it does look similar to the one given before the Neighbours update, but it's new, a different survey site and the survey code is higher than the previous recent ones.)

This topic is locked to avoid all sorts of irrelevant discussions. Feel free to open a thread about the new Sims game, which could be a replacement for SFP or Sims 3 mobile or an entirely new variation.
Edit: The topic can be found here: A new Sims game

This is how to do the survey:
Copy the text into your favorite browser and replace the <digits> with 8 or more numbers. (It's called a Session ID, which simply identifies the current session of the survey).

Code: Select all

http://ea.decipherinc.com/survey/selfserve/53b/150718?list=1&SID=<digits>
If you want to do the survey again, you'll have to delete the cookies for ea.decipherinc.com and clear the browser's cache.
