My point is Zangetsu, be patient with this man, and you will reap the rewards after some time.
You guys are making a lot of sense, I think I'll drop the timers. I definitely don't want to take the cheap route on this one. I can see how timers would almost remove your natural awareness because there wouldn't be a need for that if the timer did the job for you. Guess I'll have to try the ultimate dreaded task...patience. [cue dramatic sound effect]
