Why? How will spending a few microseconds every once in a while change anything? Why will it change anything? How is it worse for the NPC to be spending those microseconds on a timeout and not a long actionplayeronline?

2) I never said I was a better scripter than he, I simply said Jagen is a good scripter, and I'm a pretty good scripter, and that when two people who are both pretty good at something, especially Jagen, is most likely correct, since he was basically saying we were wrong with this 100% thing.
Giltwist+Kai > Jagen+Zega

Does that mean we're automatically right? Any competent scripter's doubts should be treated with respect, not dismissed without thought.
