Wait....listen to music....and once the turn processing time gets to extraordinarily long, I chat with people on MSN, eat, watch some TV, etc. Maybe even do some homework, if the mood happens to strike me that I should be doing something remotely productive

Generally, I sat and stared at the screen.

Yeah, usually I too just look at at the screen while the A.I.'s turns are processed, especially in the early part of the game when the turns go by more quickly. Later, when the turns start taking more than a few minutes I start to read books, eat food, clean up my room, etc. I can't browse the forum because I have Windows ME and SEIV crashes if I use ALT-TAB during the A.I.'s turns.

I'm in one PBW game. My gaming tends to go through phases. My current one seems to be COH. It's hard to tell, because a lot of my time is now taken up programming.
