Nice post about how much during a convention time slot (roughly four hours):

Delta points out that the tournament maps from the A-series for 1980 Gen Con cover around 9--15 rooms.
He also cites a write-up of play through the G-series at Origins 1978, where the winning teams covered 6--12 rooms.
Those accounts and others support a typical range of 6--12 rooms in a session, with a mode of maybe seven or eight rooms.
Watched Event Horizon on Netflix. Good. Nice ghost ship trope, with strong Lovecraftian elements. The final act could have been stronger.
Stopped at Home Depot to buy stuff to fix dad's patio door, but they were out of the kind of handle I was looking for.
Breakfast: coffee with half-and-half
Lunch: lasagna and spinach
Dinner:
