What's the shortest quarter length you have heard of someone playing and enjoying?

In dynasty mode what's the shortest quarter length you have heard someone playing and really enjoying? I haven't heard anyone ever play under 5 minute quarters in dynasty before.

You might think I am crazy but I can't enjoy this game with quarter lengths under 10 min. To me, playing shorter quarters, eliminates the aspect of strategy, which is football. 10 min seems to provide ample time for both the CPU and User to execute their game plans. Shorter quarters make the offense feel forced. I'll probably get laughed at for this reply but this is my opinion...

Enjoying? Default 5 mins.

Personally, I play with 7 minute quarters.

I play 6 minute quarters, sometimes 7.

Haven't heard of anyone playing with less than 5 minute quarters.

Played 3 min quarters once, but didnt enjoy it. I usually play 5 or 7 minutes.

I play 10 minutes. I'll play 5 if I just want to see some things, but I only really enjoy it if I'm getting some realistic results, and that happens at 10 minutes for me.

Probably 5 minutes for the majority to "enjoy" it since most probably play at default settings.

I prefer 9 minutes to get pretty realistic play number totals.
