The problem is not finding 12 things to record... The problem I have is when the broadcasters play games with their schedules (esp during sweeps or "premiere" week). On more than one occasion I have had only 4-5 items to record, but due to back to back programming and the broadcasters playing games (scheduling shows at 7:05 that end at 8:10 for example; thus needing 4 tuners to record 2 shows [for a short while... bit still...]) so end up using 11 of my 15 tuners in order to get everything without dropping anything... (one of my pet peeves is missing the first 3 mins or last 3 mins of a show.... since for me that can make or break the show).....
Time is on my side.
