Gordon went to bed and he was hoping to find stuff here to read when he awoke. That's why I was posting here.

I'm here to chew bubblegum and win the Game Chef prize. And I'm all out of gum.

[quote="uncle_wilf"]This is not meant to be a moan or rant: merely a statement of where my mind is at the moment, in the hope that some of you can point out views other than my own and maybe help me back on course...

Like the title says. It's not that I don't understand the concept or can't see where it could come in useful or anything like that... it's just... such an artificial constraint on the players...

What I really can't understand is why *I* would want to play a campaign with such a short span when there are other games I could play]


Time is relitive. Game wise an hour can represent any amount of real time. If your play envirement is as rich as you say you shoud have alot of experiance with time as a game element. I'll put it to you this way. Is the real issue the time constraint or the packaging of the event bounded by it. Peraps instead of trying to fit in the time space you might pick a subject and make it fit the time frame. Also I think there are 6 choises for time so you can roll a D6 to chose. Good Luck and chill out.
