Subject: RE: days played


"Game days" consists of only a few hours of real life. That, indeed, is
impossible. 10 Real Days to 30 *is* entirely possible, however. I reached
level 21 in 6 days played and I did it with only 60pp given to me and no
other help. I was purposely power-leveling because my regular group needed
me to catch them since we are unable to find a cleric that actually knows
how to play a cleric. They seem to all want to be battle mages! We even
grouped with two clerics that did not even have ANY heal spells memorized!
