How Many Of You

It's funny, but a few weeks ago I was trying to sleep and thinking of a game when I suddenly realised that I had forgotten to give certain orders in the game. So, of course, I jumped out of bed at 2 o'clock in the morning raced down to my computer and redid my turn with the new orders.

"How many of you go to bed at night thinking about either your single player game or a game on PBW?"

I've done that a few times but most of the time I fall asleep thinking of programming Languages. Particularly PHP and MySQL. I have a few projects in each of those I'm working on so I break down what I am trying to accomplish and then write out the code mentally and how it can be completed.

But in the past I have thought much about my PBW games and so forth.

"How many of you enjoy roll playing your PBW empires?"

I used to not like it, but I'm getting into it now and it makes the game much more enjoyable.

Pretty much every morning when I'm getting into the shower I think about what's going to happen in the Remorhaz universe. Now if I could just take the time to write it down...

I think about it about every night. It is more I must STOP thinking about it to go to sleep, not put myself to sleep with it.

I do spend some of the 'lie still waiting for sleep' time pondering PbW games, but only if I'm in one that's far enough along to be... comlicated? There's a better word...

Since it's been a while since I was in a PbW game that deep, I might think more about the next bit of technobabble I'm going to write for the Play by Committee game. (use spectator | spectator to log in)

Yeah, I know that feeling. A great many of my spare moments are taken up by se4 strategising. Or thinking up new stuff for O&C.

I think about my games a lot when I'm lying down and resting. Sometimes it's enough to make me get up and play more, if I've been napping during the day. By the time I go to bed, I've usually had enough SEIV for the day.

I particularly enjoy roleplaying my races. It makes PBW more fun, especially when I'm losing (i.e. most of the time).
