    Used to play about 2-3 hours a day. Now, w/ school and all, I'm down to about 6 hours a week at max, not counting weekends.

    Unfortunately, it's down to a ridiculously low level. Probably around three hours a week. This week I most likely won't be able to play at all...

    During the summer I could log in about ten a week.

    Well as little as a year ago, I was still probably playing about 30 hours a week, give or take a few. I'm since gotten old, however. Now I probably play only around 10 hours a week, mostly on the weekends. It's hard for me to find time to play during the week anymore.

    Of course, the irony is that I now spend way too much time here at the Org, reading and posting messages. Were I to cut back on the hours I spend here, I suspect I would quickly discover where the majority of my extra playing time disappeared to.

    when i first got shogun, i played 5-6 hours a day. that slacked off until just before medieval came out to 10-12 hrs a week. then i rollercoasted back up to 5-6 hrs a day again.

    the curve was much flatter on medieval. until rome came out i played 15-20 hrs a week. then i played rome in the next wave of heavy use. i started switching back and forth between medieval and rome up till barbarian invasion at the 15-20 hrs a week level. bi made my play come to a screaching halt. i really didn't like bi.

    i didn't even repick up the old games for as much as 6 months. i was burned out. then i reinstalled medieval and since then play it almost exlusively. my level today fluxuates but i usually play 3 or 4 campaigns heavily like the old days. then i just visit forums and talk about the game for 2-3 months with small usage. i think this trend i think will probably continue as i don't plan to buy m2tw. i just can't afford the machine it will take to play it.

    This past summer I was playing RTW a couple hours a day, and sometimes as many as 8-10. Now, it depends on my schedule. When I have a test I quit for a while. Otherwise, I play an hour or so most days, and at least a couple hours on weekends(sometimes more).

    My schedule currently dictates about 30 minutes worth of playing time each week

    I play about 1 hour of BF2 every wednesday night. And since I have the Anno 1701 demo I tend to play that for maybe an average of 2 hours a week

    Lately I've been playing MTW about 2 to 3 times a week, including weekends. In total hours per week, I would say about 7 to 10. Once I'm done with my current campaign, however, I'll probably be cutting that down to 0 for several months or so. I will be taking a certification test soon, so I need to start cramming for that. Also, my wife will be having a baby, so I know life will not be the same once that happens - in a happy kind of way, of course!!

    Around 2-4 hours a week. I only usually go on once or twice a week but i'll be on for hours. I should use my spare time for more constructive use.

    o hour between Monday and Thursday.
    4/5 hours on Friday evening if nothing comes up.
    Whatever time I can spare on Saturday - usually from the moment I wake up until late - so about 10/12 hours
    2/3 hours on Sunday (trying to finish whaterver I left "undone" on Saturday)

    Nowadays: Between 1 - 3 hours per week, usually occuring in a non contiguous fashion between friday night and sunday night.

    In the past: Considerably more, though not to the "sitting on the toilet with a laptop" level.
