The healthy games tend to last until I get tired of fixing the cracks in higher level 5e behind the screen.  The unhealthy ones have a lot more effort into fixing the cracks caused by Bob's hexadin spreadsheet or whatever & end in the lower teens when he can't self moderate and is grumpy because he feels nerfed.So yes, my games advance slower until the system starts being more gm work  than gm support.  Nearly all of my non-AL games run into the teens</blockquote>
