If something happens with my HP or spell slots, then that's something which I may well need to know at a later point, and it's something which I might not otherwise remember, so I will probably* decide to write it down.Any given thing that happens along the adventure, or any given NPC that we meet? It's highly unlikely that it will matter at any point down the line. My time is far better spent appreciating what is going on, rather than writing down everything that happens. And if something really important happens - if it's likely to matter at some point in the future - then I'm probably going to remember that anyway. Scattershot notes that try to incorporate every detail, in the hope of getting down the thing that might matter in the future, is a ridiculously inefficient waste of time. It's much more likely that I could produce a page of notes for every session and still not get whatever detail happens to become relevant later on.</blockquote>
