So should we PAUSE the game before shutting it down or continue to let it run at whatever speed we have it set on and quit the game before the time change?

The game does not need to be paused, as long as you quit the game. The "Spring forward" isn't nearly as dangerous as the "Fall back" for your little villagers. If the game is running when the time change happens, it will suddenly be an hour later and the game will normally just play "catch up" for that hour.

Thank you!

I think the fall time change messed up my VV1 game because I was playing it when it happened and I don't want a repeat of that. \:\(

Does anyone know if the system restore option in Windows XP is like time warping? I was having some problems and was just wondering if a system restore would affect the game at all. I guess the safest thing to do would be to backup my game.

A system restore will usually not affect the game, unless you also change your computer's clock in the process. It's never a bad idea, however, to back up your games before doing a system restore (just in case something goes wrong). \:\)

That makes we wonder. Will it remember if, say, it was 2012, it was February 29th? Not that that really matters.
