THAT'S NOT THE WOTC DESIGNERS' FAULT!  It does not in any way indicate that they screwed up in their game design because YOU can't have a game that plays exactly the way you want with little to no time spent on it.  And if you truly believe that it is... then I'd wonder if you have any hobbies you actually enjoy.</blockquote>
