Title: Playtime Poll
Post by: robpickles on April 23, 2010, 09:50:56 am
I was just curious as to what people's average playtime is here on EZ Server.

I don't get to play as much as I would like and most of you seem to fly through the game pretty quickly, so I thought I would get an idea on how long you get to play to get where you are.

Unfortunately...yes...that is me at the 0-2 hours/week.

ATM, things have been nuts with a new baby and all.  But I am trying to get my playtime up more on the weekends to allow me to catch up and romp with some of you big boys. LOL!

Here's another... I'm gone 12 hours a day for work then my daughter has softball 4 nights through the week, which leaves little time for anything else.  Then I spend the weekends (also my play time) trying to catch up.

A buddy of mine is in the Marines too. Props to all those in the Military. I'm told some pretty graphic stuff about what the Marines do overseas.

Well the things about Marines in particular, we tend to exaggerate the truth a bit. By a bit, i mean it depends on your rank haha

I used to play 24ish hours a week, but recently I've been splitting time between multiple games so my playtime has significantly dropped. I'd say I play somewhere in the 11ish range. Juggling EZ server, League of Legends, Borderlands (cracked online with friends), Guild Wars, Ultima Online private shard (PandoraUO), and Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Complete (That's right, HOMM3. And we found how to take it online with a handy program called GameRanger)


Anyways, I play for helping friends out on EZ anymore, and generally just take blackee into Qvic and Tacvi and such when I have time to assist them. Other then that, I'm playing any of those other games I mentioned. I need to get back to being an expert juggler, I'm still having issues doin' em all, but they're all fun so I can't stop..

OMG! Do you people work for a living? LOL!

I honestly do not know how you do it.  Between work, the baby, and sleep, I barely have the time to that.

I think someone needs to invent a special "jack-into-the-net" device like in the Matrix, so i can lay down in bed and play while I am sleeping!  ;D

Lemmie know how that Matrix jack works out, i might invest

I'm a 6ish hour a week guy now. Summer really drops my playtime. I love being outdoors or working on the house as much as gaming. Winters are definitely 15-20 hours a week though. Life then becomes sleep, eat, work, move snow, play EQ, rinse, repeat.
Kids are easiest when they are babies...no playing necessary, they just sit there (so long as you have one of them quiet ones! i got lucky :P ). Never had more playtime than when i had a kid. Took 2 weeks off work, held the kid occasionally, played eq while holding the kid. Now that shes 2, she wants to color, or go outside, or read curious george and the missing puppy.
