hefalumps, for a while (until about one week ago) I was where you were and was seriously considering (having read for a while of the bugs, etc. in ootp 6) staying with playing my seasons in ootp 5 for a while longer...[until the 'peace of mind' patch comes around]...

However, I did decide to just go ahead and give ootp 6 a try for a while (after I made certain to back up and put on disk a copy of my ootp 5 season files in case I decided to go back to it instead).
And, though there are still bugs out there I still HIGHLY reccommend the way that OOTP 6 plays compared to OOTP 5.
Even with the risk of running into a bug or two (and, so far, I've only come accross one bug and, frankly, I'm not worried about that bug 'wrecking' my whole season or anything...just a minor annoyance really) I would, without reservation or qualification, recommend taking the leap to OOTP 6.
The game engine, the roster rules, the smoothness of play, the better AI, etc. all bring the game to another level....
It did take me a couple of days to get used to OOTP 6, but once I did...wow..definitely improved from ootp 5 (and I thought ootp 5 was pretty darned good! )

Anyway, I just wanted to pass that opinion along and encourage you to just grab a mosquito net (back things up) and move on in to the ootp 6 jungle...IMO, it is very much worth the risk of 'bug-bites'.
