Like a simple "I reserve the right to nerf or ban stuff that becomes problematic" rule. I find that having a retro-ban rule puts me at ease, so I can focus on DMing rather than worrying about some charop build that might jump out and wreck the game.Well the problem is easily solved when you're in the DM seat. Just start the next session with an announcement: "There will be no 30 minute, or even ten minute rule discussions. When disagreements come up, I'll give everyone one minute to make their case and then I'll make a call. You don't like it, write me an email after the game."When the other guy is DMing, you might just have to tough out these petty rule debates -- although I'll second Lord Pendragon's suggestion to have a private discussion with him about the excessive debating. It might be that he lets them happen because he thinks everyone is cool with it. And if he really enjoys 30 minute rule debates, just tell him "That's cool, but the next time it happens I'm leaving the room for a stretch."Smoke 'em if ya got 'em, or bring a book to read.I think the only problem is your current indecisiveness.</blockquote>
