Question, did you take extra time off?Follow

oh yes :)

I definitely thought about it! Wound up sick early yesterday and today and am just hoping I'll be able to get a copy when I hit the store in the morning tomorrow. I took off the whole week of Thanksgiving and plan to play as much as possible (maybe even on Turkey day if my wife will allow it) :-)

I picked up the game at lunch, but had to return to work. I can wait, since I played in beta the last 2 weeks.

I really wanted to but couldn't. Too many deadlines to meet right now before the holiday shutdown.

Deadlines? I got lots of em, but EQ2 comes first and my boss will understand. Anyway, if I get fired that's more time to play. Win win situation.

I took an extra day off this week but it was originally so that I could recover from the Dungeons and Dragons game I'm starting this Friday. Now I know I'm just gonna waste it playing EQ2. Still, going to be weird to be one of a few people who doesn't devote their Friday night to either EQ/EQ2 or trying to get laid.

Then again, with the gaming community where I live, being a GM could just do the latter for me... hmm...

2 days off for me.... Thats pretty bad isn't it.

Well seems like a few people at my work will probably be hearing about my sudden back problems that are handily hard to verify thanks to EQ2.

taking next friday off with friends-its a cross-country get together. Figured there wold be more bugs then I have notcied and a solid week + would be a good time to take off.
Of course.....I am up till 3 am every night anyhow so its like i am taking time off ...as ....i....sleep ..at ..wrok...

I didn't take any EXTRA time off. However, my wife works for a bank so she had thursday off already. So I scheduled thursday off as well some time ago. Then I found out from my boss last week (I was still not thinking much about EQ2 since I thought it would be out on the 15th at the time) that I needed to use some vacation time soon or I would lose it (I get a crazy 22 days/year while my wife gets a pathetic 10 days, kinda sucks for her). So I took Friday off as well. So since I had Friday off, and my wife had worked like 60 hours a week for a month straight she was able to get her boss to Comp her friday off as well.

So despite taking no EXTRA time off for this game I seem to have found myself with a 4 day weekend, a wife who plays EQ2, and nothing to do but play EQ2, Halo 2, MOHPA, LOTR: The Third Age, and GTA:SA. I just KNOW I am going to get SO BORED this weekend with so little to do. :)

If I had the bloody game, I'd be taking some time off... :P

My husband left early from work yesterday once we recieved our copy, and he took today off for vacation. We are both having a blast, and I am glad he took the time off.....get a bit of a fix so he can last till the weekend. LOL.
