Long hours and video card problems have conspired to almost completely remove me from the game. Eventually I'll get around to throwing a new box together, and then I'll be back in force.

Generally, 2 to 3 hrs each week night and 5+ hrs on Saturday and Sunday. I occasionally skip a day here and there.

I put myself in the 26-35 range. Varies obviously on when I can find a group, but then again that's why there are alts :-) I like to spend a few hours each day on EQ no matter which toon, and Saturday is my big day for playing a lot....hard to peel me away from the comp that day. Usually log significant time Sunday too. All depends on the PA weather (usually crap), my patience to stay on for awhile, and the severity of the hangover from the night before lol. Girlfriend faction is always important too.

None. At a time, it was as high as.. erm.. 40-ish. Man, how'd I ever do that?
#8 Apr 29 2006 at 1:46 AM Rating: Default
I play an average of 4 hours a day on weeknights, and anywhere from 8 to 20 hours on the weekends. Less in the spring and summer months on the weekends. I wonder what I did before EQ.

I average about 6 hours per day. Would have been a lot more if I didn't have any rl issue like laundry, shopping, feeding pets and myself, etc.

Very little gametime lately. I have been "expansioned away from the game". Used to be @ 20 hrs a week, now it is only to see if friends are on and to say "hi"

It's pretty sad, considering how I'm unemployed and all, when I'm logged into a play character (as opposed to Bazaar mule) I still spend most of my time FD in some corner somewhere, distracted by something else. I hardly actually play much lately.

If a person spends NO HOURS playing EQ why would 4% partake in this poll? LMAO

You have enough spare time to watch 1 of BILLIONS of websites that you have no interaction with?

Quit EQ and send ME yer $25/mo. HAHAHAHAAA!

My wife and I work graveyards.We play in the mornings when we get home for about 4 hours, unless, we are stuck in a quest or helping someone else aquire something. On our weekends we melt the motherboards from sun up to sun down.
I would guess that equals about 38 hours of game play .. not including the siting arround and looking for stuff and swaping screens to search for info and such.
About 38 hours a week.
I could be wrong and we spend about 60 hours a week playing ... but I dont want to admit it to myself.

I raid 6 days a week from 730pm to 12am. Normally I'm on from 7pm to 5am but, I put in quite a few 12+ hour EQ sessions.

What sort of real life set up do you have going? (No, this isn't a flame like, 'OMG, you have no life!!') I mean, how do you have this amount of time to spare, with still fulfilling your commitments to the real world, such as an form of education, work, and social obligations?

When I worked graveyard, i would play a couple hours every AM to unwind before crashing. Then I went to days and spent only a few hours every weeknight playing...

Now my wife works weekend graveyard, and I actually play MORE. She leaves by 11 pm and I log in and stay in till i pass out. Then, I usually log in all day Saturday and all day Sunday... minus time here and there to keep the neighbors happy by killing, i mean cutting... yeah, cutting the grass and stuff... =)
