Play style?

I micromanage everything. If I don't they do dumb stuff.

Other: Mostly micromanage but occasionally give them free rein.

Used to be opposite, but got bored :P

I'm halfway in between. I like letting my game stay on speed 1 unless everyone is asleep or at work. I manage plenty, but pressing pause is a bit of an interruption, so I don't like to micromanage so much that I have to hit pause all the time.

When I get bored of forcing my current Sims to be happy and successful, I intend to make a save called "Chaos," in which every option including story progression is on, and I only get to control one Sim. MWAHAHAHAHA-gasp-HAHAHA!!!

My sims just don't know what's best for them...

Face it, they're idiots. I have freewill turned on, and I'm constantly having to keep them from doing something stupid.

I'm a-skeered to let them run free.... :#

no autonomy in this kingdom

Somewhere in the middle. I do a lot of micromanaging but not constantly
