The Official "What Are You Doing During Downtime?" Off-Topic Discussion Party Zone

[Oforf]

seeing as how AO is addictive like crack, i'll be going through withdrawl like a good junkie. starting with shaking uncontrollably and sobbing to myself in the corner.

i just hope it isn't down much longer than the 48 hours. otherwise i may progress to offering to orally pleasure men in alleys for some SK.

48 hours of downtime initially. Then 24 hours of problems. Then 48 hours more to go back to the old system. Then we get to play the game finally only to find that the new patch added a lot of severe bugs so now we get another 24 hours of rollbacks and we are right back where we started

Paranoid yet?

morph into a parrot, fly 2 pf's west, zone into 7-11, loot a Sparks (beerish energy drink), then RL a sportsbar raid to pwn at foosball ...all while trying desperatly not to say "lol" or "nerf".

[Psythe]

I am going to make a thread here and chronilize what I am doing every hour. Each post will contain what I am doing in 6 hour incraments, I figure I will need about 8 reserved posts .

Funnily enough i bought KOTOR for the x-box about a week before i first started AO, and somehow never gotten around to finishing it, tho i bought, played and finished KOTOR 2 in the meantime.

So tomorrow at least the xbox is off the shelf and back on the TV, so i can finally finish the story that AO interrupted :-p

[grumpy-mcfart]

I'm gonna be farming zixes

How you may ask? obviously you've never seen my basement.

Once I'm done doing that I'm gonna go to a con, 'cause there's this nice guy just up the road with a bridge for sale

[Psyloche]

Having fun, i guess. Enjoying playing C&C, Battlefield2, and so on

Specially C&C3 is brilliant, ive missed a GOOD strategy game until it came out, think the last BIG one was Warcraft3, so i was happy finding out the C&C 3 was adequately turoughly devloped, seen enough trash strategy games using old engines

As indicated on Life on Rimor, I will be making a lot of pancakes. And they will all be pancake jaffles.

I may create a new thread here with pictures of this monumental event.

Guess I'll need to clean my kitchen first. Wouldn't want to be embarrassed by my own filth.

[Eaglestrider]

The worst possible scenario arose for me...the 7th is my day off work!! That means I'll have to busy myself with my 5.5 and 3.5 year old kids while my wife is off making "nicey nicey' with her feking co-oworkers and working out at the gym while I get to play "Mr. Mom". Don't get me wrong but after pulling 7 days straight at the local hospital I am damn well excited to be off; just not on the 1st day AO is offline.

Lemme be the first to put in a breakfast order for some of those damn 'pancake jaffle' deals. Oh plz for god sakes m8 make mine with chocolate chips. You take Visa, MC, or Discover m8? Whatz for lunch and dinner btw???

I might try and coerce the wife into some 'nookie' but you all know women, they always on some different schedule....I might need to buy a new book to read--but ffs it'll have to be one of those lil' cornerstore deals that reads fast...hell if I wanna' be engrossed in a book when AO comes back up.

Oh man what if get desperate and begin like cleaning the house or washing the damn dishes...OR even god forbid doing laundry...HOLY SHIZZ this downtime has me all scared !!!!!!!

[TheCatlady]

Hmm... this *might* be THE opportunity to get comfy in the chair, and watch 5 seasons of Scrubs and I think another 4 seasons of CSI-Miami :P And I´ll be out most of the time on Wednesday anyway...

[ladyfian]

Probably going through my large collection of Terry Pratchett -Discworld Novel Series, and reading as many as I can...I've already read Mort, and am now started on Pyramid, in 2 days I could probably read about 20 of the books I have...

[Damona]

I'll spend it with my husband. we usually play ao together, but maybe now is the perfect time to work on that baby he wants ^^

But then again Baby = No time for AO

I may have to rethink the previous plan.

I suggest a lot of practising, what the hell, you could become grandmasters in the 48 hours :-)

Luckily I am in a yard in denmark, installing serverroom and navigation equipment for a seabed logging vessel.

Dont have time to play while pulling 14-15 hour days. But please, fix it before friday night, so I can play ao after spanking gf a bit.
