If you dont set 8 encounter Adventuring days then they dont happen.Its like you saying 'Ive created and played in several adventures and not one of them featured goblins, so therefore goblins dont exist.'Its spurious reasoning at best.Exactly.Player; 'Haha DM - I see through your 6-8 encounter ruse and nova encounter 1 then fall back to rest. Come at me bro!'DM: [rolls some dice, ignoring the result] OK, well as you move to where you plan on resting, you see another wave of Orcs bigger than the last...or:DM: Ok then. The princess dies as you all rest. Adventure over, you all failed and get a bad reputation as unreliable adventurers. Her death weighs on your souls, and your employer wants nothing more to do with you. Paladin - you feel a tugging at your conscience as if you could have done more. The guilt wracks you. Also none of you get paid. Thats (adds up) 150xp each. At this rate, you should all advance a level after a year or two of play. Its a pity too, becuase that BBEG had a dagger +2 that the rogue would have loved. Thats gone for good. You spend the next month in game in downtime seeing as no-one wants to hire you anymore. People turn their backs to you on the street. We can pick up next week seeing as you clearly dont want to engage on the adventure I had planned. Now, seeing as the adventure is over for today, who wants to watch a torrent of the new Star Wars movie for the rest of the afternoon?or:DM: Its too dangerous to rest here. So, No.or:DM: Look mate, I've explained to you repeatedly as a player and friend that my job as DM is to set challenging and fun encounters for the party to engage in, and you consistently work against the social contract of the game to undermine this with your metagame rubbish. There is the door - dont let it hit you on the way out.These all work. </blockquote>
