    - if it's 8:00ish Eorzea time, go start the red/blue scrip node train that ends at roughly 2pm
    - queue for something during or in between that
    - try to fit in triple triad challenges in sometime in between that (oh wait, my Idle Imperial timer conflicts with my node timer - I can't do both until/unless I cap scrips)
    Sounds more like a personal problem then a game problem, decide content you want to do and spend you time doing that instead of running around like crazy person trying to do it all at the same time.

    My personal problem becomes SE's game problem when I unsub because I don't find "running around like a crazy person" fun. Not that I at all do that tyvm. Let's say I find one thing I want to do, as some suggest. Ok, that's totally reasonable. Let's say that is farming Triple Triad cards. What am I doing in between NPC timers? Let's say I am only doing GATES. What am I doing in between timers? Let's say I am only doing Alexander Savage. What am I doing while I'm waiting for my group to fill?

    It doesn't matter whether you do a single piece of content or some combination of content, timers restrict (unreasonably in my view) the ability to do the content you want to do when you want to do it. This is objective fact, not opinion, and it is completely inarguable by anyone w/ an ounce of sanity or intelligence. I understand timers as a way of slowing progress (understand, not agree with) but SE doesn't have to put a time restriction on every piece of content. Progress doesn't have to be slowed on everything.
