No not really, and believe me, that can be hard too.Yesterday (-night) we had
our last session with our current GM, he's leving us, and we _had_ to do that
run to the end.
It was about 01:03am, and we were all tired, but two of us reacted to "Roll
perception, please" when we just wanted to search a room with the whole drill
- you know, all drawers, check pattern on blanket for secret codes, the whole
james-Bond stuff.
Our GM let them do it, but suggested (after half an hour - yet another half an
hour *yawn*) to check the next rooms to come by pure mdice rolls.

Oh, btw: By 03:00am we had hosed the run and were ruuning for our lives - and
next session I'll GM :-)
