It is important that very developed games in which players hold key roles or positions in the game not use auto-boot. Often, players should also wait to boot, giving extra time to players whose booting would disrupt the balance of the game. | More often than not RP games are Multi-Day games in order to fully allow players to negotiate and play their roles.
