Nobody seems to understand that the Goetics are Gods, they will not tolerate 9 foot circles or people trying to "control" them, 9 foot circles are very insulting to them. They do not hurt people who show them respect, and use traditional ways of summoning them, which do not involve nine foot circles. I have gotten only rewards and great things from goetic beings, and I have not used a single 9 foot circle. Think about it. Does anyone doubt me?
"Tolerate" it or not, they have very little choice if you make them. Also the traditional way of summoning them is with a 9 foot circle, as per the text they are listed in.

I dont use circles either. It is insulting to these spirits. You are saying u r afraid of them and want to hide behind a shield and boss them around.
You are misunderstanding just what a circle is. Yes it does grant protection but not as some invisible force field they cannot cross, it is a sign of divinity, of never ending ultimate power. Properly constructed the spirit has no choice but to be in awe.
