Tom: So one of the things about this set of rules as written is, "it takes an hour plus half an hour per reroll" is a load-bearing component.
The answer to your question is, it takes an hour or more to try to learn a spell and back down. You can try again right away, if you have the hour or more to spare.
In a game where an hour is precious, this is a satisfying answer. In a game where you have all day, it isn't!
I don't intend this to be a game where you always track time to the half hour or whatever, so I'm going to need to revise these rules until they put their weight somewhere else. (The inversion I thought of last night will qualify!)
