My writeups of Jeff's game are invariably condensed.

Wait a minute -- Jane of Apple Lane, let me introduce you to oranges. Chat involves typing. That's a heck of a lot slower than talking.

In my game, I've sometimes condensed weeks of travel to a short description (often invoking the cinematic "moving red line"). Usually after establishing the normal routine. Our year-long heroquest probably took 5 or 6 sessions to complete.
