Lots can be accomplished in that amount of time..When I had my
regular group that was our standard session time as well..Some times
it makes it a bit harder to get through a module..but that means your
$ to enjoyment time ratio goes way up..

That is one of the first things that goes when you have a limited
amount of time to play in..jerk around time is out the window..Not to
say that it is eliminated..htat is of course impossible..but it is
cut way down in the interest of all...And some of us oldtimers simply
don't have the concentrated time off to to pull a 12 hour gaming
session..
look at it like this..conventions only sched 4 hour slots..and look
at the amount of gaming gets accomplished in that time...
