How many slaves/guests do you have?
I have save with 80+ guests and 50+ slaves and sleep link executes in about 2 seconds.
Also what exactly you mean by noscript?
Twine is browser game and it uses script heavily so I even doubt game would run with disabled js.
ill make you a deal "to sweeten the deal" you create us a good video tutorial, with written text steps along side the video. ill sub to the patreon

. both things help the game in the long run, its nothing but gains. but i also understand that creating that video is still time consuming. so theres the sweetener

(i have never offered this. i do so, as i am really enjoying this game, and would love to fill in some of the gaps for the other players, once i know how)
