IDK, I figure out my main's "downtime" pretty rigorously. There's a lot of boring off-screen stuff he does between sessions and if anything he doesn't have enough time to get all of it done, not the other way around.
And like... I feel like most people acknowledge seasonal events in RP... so do you just pretend that there are 3 Risings/Starlights/Heavensturns/etc in a single cycle? Does every character get one nameday to celebrate, and that's that, because their next one would fall outside the time bubble?
Here and WoW I've been a proponent of the real-time approach to RP, simply because it's the Occam's Razor in terms of making sure everyone's on the same page regarding stuff like how long it's been since the last session happened and what time of year it is in terms of seasons.
