[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 5350254, member: 29398"] I've put in more hours of play in my own game over that timespan (never mind the same-system game I play in rather than DM) and it hasn't lost any luster. Stick another '0' on the end of your hours-played estimates above and then we can start realistically talking about when the shine wears off. :) One of the main skills in running a good 1e game is knowing what rules *not* to use. Like all of these. :) I suspect the publishers would very much like it if all the tinkers stopped plying their trade and left design-level stuff to the paid professionals. However, we charter members of the tinkerers union aren't about to do any such thing. That said, we're easy enough to please - all we ask for is two things: a) a playable framework, and b) get out of the way. Lanefan [/QUOTE]
