[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7648936, member: 7006"] In other words... you care more about the way your players have control over their characters than the issues of the 15 minute workday. Which is great! More power to you and your players! You've chosen how you want to DM your game and have done so. That's exactly what you should be doing. But this also means that the 15 minute workday is not so much of an issue for you that you bother trying to fix it. Because the fact of the matter is... ANY issue within the game that bothers a DM can be fixed by said DM (either easily or with great difficulty) *if* the DM cared enough about the issue to try. It might be a real pain in the butt to do... but it IS possible if it matters that much. The fact that you don't tells us that while it *is* an issue you wish didn't actually exist... and would hope that in D&DN the game was written so that it didn't exist... you don't care enough about it as it stands to bother inflicting rules changes to reduce or eliminate it, because you believe that it would impinge on the freedom you give your players. You've made your choice as a DM to run the game as you have chosen (which I salute). [/QUOTE]
