To be honest, this is one thing I'm very undecided on. I keep flitting back and forth on it. Sometimes seasons seem too short and when Winterfest rolls around AGAIN I'm all "ugggh... get the tree back out" (insert moody teen walk here), then when I'm on long I find myself thinking "Geeeez I'm so over this snow/heatwave etc". My poor angler aspiration sims can't do anything in winter, my geek can't enjoy Geekcon in the rain. So I am beginning to cater them to the family I'm playing based on how much it will affect them (and me :D ).
