Why such my question - multy-year games.

    I had an hour or so to wait. And I occupied myself by doing figures on a sheet of paper. -
    - So what final score do we get if we play MM7 for 6+ years and invest hugely (almost totally) in Learning skill?
    I mean killing everything, then training for Learning and waiting till next respawn and so on and so forth.
    One hint - If you want to finish the game in Year 7 and
    if a location or a dungeon (castle) is to respawn
    on March 1 years 3, 5, and 7, then you must clear this
    location:
    1st time - shortly before March 1, Year 3
    (and do not touch a thing these 2+ years)
    2nd time - shortly before March 1, Year 5.
    3rd time - shortly before March 1, Year 7.
    4rth time - immediately after March 1, Year 7.

    So you are to keep a note of when you first enter a location (sublocation) and respect the schedule.
    Strangely enough - if after, say, June 1, you begin training and investing in Learning only, you raise your Learning level by 7-8 every half-year.
    And bear in mind -
    that you must do fighting (if it's time to) from 9.00 am till 18.00 pm then go training one level every time.
    that you kill directly before respawning and only the final time before winning.
    that some areas respawn every one year and every half-year (and the experience-richest areas among them being Castle Gloaming and respective Dark area, and of course Eofol).
    So, expected final score will be ab. 50K on June 1 year 3, ab. 53K on June 1 year 5, 58K, 65K etc.

    One thing not included in calculations -
    When your party is about Level 100 you may ponder on alternating between training and visits to Arena - at Level 100
    (with no points invested in Learning) you may get about 250k per visit -
    and if you are a level 100 party and have Level 41 Learning - these 250K turn into 640K exp points
    - Eofol's respawns bring 3,200,0000K (if no Learning skill) in two years

    After level 100, one would think of alternating on Arena visits and trainings.
