I play rotationally approx 25 families , now just over 6500 hours on this save file
Currently I have at least one family in every single neighbourhood apart from the latest one as i haven't yet got down my list to that neighbourhood . Just now switched to normal life lengths as i found long life was too long .
I also swap every Sunday apart from if i play my famous sim i switch from them on a Monday so they can go to the awards ceremony at the end of their week .
I only have ageing on for my current family and townies can move in , move out , find jobs . All my families started with the basic 20k handout and either their house was upgraded or they moved to a better place when they could afford it . I try and give each one a different career and i have , Aliens, witches, vampires and plantsims , No werewolves as i tried them and soon got bored and deleted that family , although i may try again one day .
I have totally rebuilt every neighbourhood with at least one nightclub , bar , lounge , karaoke bar , spa , gymnasium , park in each .
The biggest annoyance for me is the sheer number of townies that the game spawns constantly , I go through other households at the end of each week with my family and delete the ones i do not want in my game . Ones i keep i check the icon to let them move in out etc which puts the newly created townies at the bottom of the list so they are easier to go through and remove the ones that annoy me
I cull the townies too! I've even tried using MCCC to stop it but it's still absolutely ridiculous
