I don't toggle songs while resting unless it's an emergency (for example,
after the first time we fought four Greater Ice Bones in lower Guk, we had
two party members dead, cleric out of mana, and most of the survivors below
half health). I haven't had any groups object to this after I explained
that toggling prevents me from typing, eating, or doing any of the other
things players normally do between fights.

(P.S. The same group fought the same Ice Bones an hour or so later, using
different tactics, and had no deaths. We still ended up with most of us
below half health, though. We were mostly in the low 30 levels, perhaps
one 28 or 29. Those suckers are nasty!)

By the way, has anyone found a 39th level song anywhere? I'm at 39 now,
and haven't spotted on in any of the usual locations.
