Exactly what Marian said.
Today, I used 100 minutes flat out- no opportunities to log out and save minutes, it was flat out chit chatter. That was on ONE character, the first character in the list. (second, actually). It was a chain of events that required my participation as I was at the centre of it.
By the time I had also checked all my other characters, them taking up 40 minutes together without any opportunity yet to log out and save time, my other time-consuming leader was called to duty again.
I had 30 minutes left by the time I was finished. I literally had to make (him/her) leave the town just to conserve minutes without looking stupid and ignoring everyone..
Right now I have 12 minutes. Most of my characters are flashing up needing attention, but if I start checking them I'll run out of time..
SIGH

I could live with 100-120. Almost every time I run out it’s because I need to use the computer for more important things like homework, so I leave the game running between checking it to burn all my time away and remove the temptation to play later that day. Unfortunetly I don't yet have the self disipline to keep myself from playing when I'm at the computer and have time left.

Farmers, they need 50 minutes max.
Society-important players (many of mine are this way) require a LOT of attention....

Oh, another thing, I used 50 minutes today.
So it's more of a security thing, perhaps if each week we were given a 'storage' which we could use.. any minutes we didn't use that day were divided by two and sent to this storage, and it empties at the end of the week- though if you go overtime during a certain day, it eats it from the stored time..

Refloating.
To divide the players between payers and not ones is a unfair idea, we know.
But to give extra time to the people that works for Cantr (of course the stuff, in lesser extend the players that votes, the seniors that spawn a char in the tutorial island, and maybe the players that participates in the forum, etc).
No extra time for every day, but a bunch of minutes that you can recall in emergencies.
-whispering- like me right now, the server has been quite busy and slow for more than an hour, and what it would take 5 minuts in normal situation has consumed all my time... and I just need 2 minuts more for handing that complicated note to my partners before the leave!

It would be nice if surfing the database didn't eat into my minutes. I don't need more minutes at the moment, but it would suck if I had to choose between doing RD work or playing my characters due to RD work eating up my minutes.
