    BTW, we have the rather boring expressions "bank holiday", "bank holiday weekend" and "long weekend" here in the UK. :confused:

    The first quarterly teaser of 2017 came out on January 6 which was a Friday. They seem flexible, I doubt they're rigidly set on releasing it on a Tuesday.

    Can't see it coming on July 4, they could if they wanted to but why would they want to? I hope the entire team is enjoying a break.

    Are the Quarterly teasers always during the first week of the new quarter?

    We should check. I found this list at Sims Community:

    Tuesday, April 19th (April – June 2016)
    Tuesday, July 5th (July – September 2016)
    Sunday, October 2nd (October – December 2016)
    Friday, January 6th (January – March 2017)
    Tuesday, April 4th (April – June 2017)

    Since 2nd teaser, yes, it is at first week of the quarter

    I didn't realise the last July teaser was so soon after July 4th. Tomorrow looks likely for the next teaser then!

    Here in Brazil when we have those 4 day weekends we usually say the holiday is being hanged. I have no idea how this started but everybody uses it even though it's quite weird to say that lol

    Here in the US, it's "Independence" Day, a national holiday.

    SN, those fireworks are going to keep me up all night. :(

    Only reason I logged on today to see the new teaser, and to make complaints about bugs..I guess bug thread and complaint thread wins.

    When a holliday is at thursday or tuesday, then add friday or monday for a extra long weekend (by law here at Argentina president iis allowed to add only 2 per year)

    Wow. That's really cool. It's not common for the US to have things like that. So you're lucky, even if it's only 2 per year. This isn't really a long weekend for most working people. I had the weekend off, but worked yesterday and am off work today.

    Hahha yes, from now on I'll take an extra long 5-day sandwich in between all my weekends :D:D

    @Orchid13 no I'm not Chilean, I'd never heard of this expression before, just think it's awesome!

    @leo3487 No. It's fine for awhile, but not into the wee hours of the morning.

    Maybe bridge weekend is similar to "long weekend"? That's what we say here when the weekend is an extra day

    ETA: to answer the original question, the teaser may still come this week but it won't be until Wednesday at the very earliest

    Could be -- basically when a holiday is on a Tuesday some companies will close down for Monday because they know a lot of people will want the day off, just like the day after Thanksgiving in the United States is a holiday for some companies (not stores or public transportation).

    The trailer could be released tomorrow or Thursday, or they may hold it till next Tuesday. I'm not expecting much -- maybe another SP or maybe they'll just work on some of the more annoying bugs.

    I know. When I was little and my mum told me it was a bank Holiday I used to wonder where our local branch used to go for it's holiday, as if it was lounging on a beach somewhere.

    I'd like to know what the holiday did wrong. :o
