I know too many, and have had the displeasure of hearing it on innumerable occasions from those I'm not acquainted with. You can practically see the thoughts forming in their minds: "Close + (thing that makes the sun stop doing that thing that suns seem to do so well, oh what's the word...? Ah well, insert something nearly like it, good enough)" For reference, I live in Florida. I fear this thread has gone terribly askew. I tend to digress into tangents often.

Americans call them blinds AND curtains. It's a matter of where you're from and personal preference in terms. Over here in NZ, Blinds and Curtains are two very different things. Curtains are (almost always) made of fabric or other flexible material, and slide along curtain rails (as in, slide open horizontally). Commonly, you'll have two per window which slide to each side when open. Blinds are what is probably referred to as 'Venetian Blinds' elsewhere - inflexible slats linked together with strings, and stacked vertically on top of each other. They cover the window, and are pulled open by a cord which brings them closer to each other and stacks them at the top of the window (as in, bunched together vertically). So where I'm from, Curtains would cover pretty much any window covering made of cloth or sheet plastic, while blinds would refer to a cover made of wood/plastic/solid slats and cord/string. That's the differentiation, though the majority here in the U.S. seem to use them interchangeably. Also referred to as shades and drapes despite definition.

Time is a fairly huge hurdle in multiplayer to begin with. You can't fast-forward because time would be progressing faster for you, but not for anyone else, and as such sleeping becomes an issue because it does exactly that. The same issue arose with attempted multiplayer mods for previous Elder Scrolls incarnations: one person would be mucking about in a dungeon or whatnot, while the second person slept (or waited,) and the result was both players being in the same place together yet one saw moons and stars while the other was in the glaring daylight. Some quests were time-sensitive as well, and would break because of this. Personally, I'd say that once you've become tired enough and decide to sleep, you are logged out until AT LEAST the time it takes to rest. I could deal with that. Probably not an entirely popular idea.

I tend to go with Carpenter, Stout, Light Drinker, and Brooding.
