Well that was indeed the idea.
24h doesn't seem too short to compose a song to me...

Yes, I already made that up too.
One must: Quarth.
Hell of a game.
And maybe, if we can arrange it, also some game like Triplex or so (or maybe

Fine by me.
Let me know your exact plans...

There will be some forms of 'entertainment' (the competitions), but you
can't get 24 hours full with that alone.
