[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 107010, member: 232"] DMs can suck. I've played with some terrible ones. PCs who think they can DM, then you give them the chance and they soon realize how tough it is. I don't know of anyone who denies that there are bad DMs. Heck, even good DMs have bad nights. Back to gaining levels every session. Well, this is very misleading. What defines a session? For instance Group A: They play once a week for four hours. They gain a level abount once every four sessions. Group B: They play once a week for about 8 hours. They gain a level once every two sessions Group C: THey game once a week for 16 hours (these are my college days :D ). THey gain a level once a week Each group playus for about 16 total hours before leveling, yet because one group plays longer per s session you are saying they are doing it wrong. I agree that about 16 hours of game time is ussually needed to gain a level. WotC did a poll and that was the average it took gamers. Anyone still have the results of that? It was realeased in the early days of 3rd ed. [/QUOTE]
