    What do you do while waiting for TW to load in between battles/turns?


    I check out the Org, do schoolwork, or surf the web on a second comp. Sometimes I work out.

    I always have my trusty guitar in reach, play some tunes during loading peroids for any game.

    Get a drink, go the toilet or draw pictures of starships (not sure why).

    Walk around. Play house football/golf/basketball. Or perhaps get some food.

    But more often than not, I psych (sp?) myself up with a big warcry!!!

    I usually get something to drink or use the bathroom. I may flip on the tv sometimes.

    When loading for battles : Plot the stratagem.
    Any other : get some tea.
    It was not theirs to reason why,
    It was not theirs to make reply,
    It was theirs but to do or die.

    all of the stuff I should be doing, eating, drinking, getting more food and drink, going to the bathroom, talking to Mrs ichi, petting the cat, doing laundry, changing the water on the lawn, and watching a little TV.

    It only takes my brilliant - brand new PC a few seconds to load pretty much everything on R:TW. :(

    Sorry.
    GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
    INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
    GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
    INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

    When I was still playing I was reading Livy or Suetonius during the breaks. Kept my interest in the game a little longer.
