Take it easy.  He is just asking a question.  If you or anyone else don't want to answer, you don't have to.

I don't log enormous amounts of hours anymore because the I'm just not as interested as I used to be, but I'm in high school 6 hours then at work as a mechanic if necessary (family business) or at home.

I work nights. During the summer months I don't tend to log as many hours as I play ALOT of golf. I play in tournaments ALOT in the spring and summer and spend time keeping  my game in shape.

During the winter is when I play the most as I dont tend to play when it is cold as much.

Working nights while the wife works days lends itself to racking hours at times. PLUS my wife has her computer right next to mine and we often play at the same time on the weekend. SO we sit next to one another..talk and shoot the breeze.

I work 8 hours, run errands, do chores, maybe watch a little TV then get a couple of hours of playtime in.  More on the weekends.  I average ~80 hours per month, been slightly over 100 the past 3 months but, I'm divorced with no kids so no other obligations to speak of (the wife was cutting into my playtime - jk).

Sorry, I musta hit a nerve. Maybe Acks wife has been complainin about him playin too long.

I was just curious, and never expected an answer like that, but who cares really.
Not like I'll go grey over it (lost greys to bald years ago) and nothing stops a geezer like me from sleepin!

Would certainly love to have as many hours as I wanted to fly, but it just is not feasible. And my game PC is down for repairs right now so I've got the DTs or something, ended up readin the BBS to get me fix.

So it lead me to wonderin where people get the time, didnt mean anything bad by it, nor did I want to know anything anyone wouldnt want to say.

any hours i put in i sacrifice sleep or gym time. my hours are starting slope downward between those two. I work 10am-7pm which doesn't leave me much time to get things done after work and i'm not a morning person.

 i played 120 hr's a couple tours ago and couldn't believe i played that many,  i think i'm in the 60's this one. don't see me getting above 80 ever again.

My business is internet based so I work when ever I want to and play when ever I want to.

Nope, never suffered from the dreaded wife ack but have felt the painful bursts from girlfriend ack from time to time.  But then, I usually only play on average 25 to 30 hours a month so it's rare when I get hit by the girlfriend ack.  She also works at the same gaming company I do, so she's a tad more tolerant when it comes to playing time.

Sorry for the tone of my posts then.  Usually this types of thread degenerate into "you've been playing for XXX hours and you still suck!".

Just curious

Frankly, it's none of your damned business.

One thing is for sure --

A lot of people would log a lot more hours if it wasn't for these Friggin Forums.

I've flown almost 60 hours this month, probably closer to 65-70 including DA time, which is a lot to me these days... I'm a university student, and living with my girl for the summer. I work 3-11, and spend a couple hours in the gym every morning when I wake up, and she works all kinds of ****ed up hours at the hospital (I don't understand her schedule; all I know is that she's usually not here when I'm awake, or asleep when I am... the odd time we're up at the same time during hte week, she's on the War Path, and I avoid her). Since I don't have to travel anywhere to see her, don't have to hit the bars to get laid, and have more or less quit drinking [heavily] for the summer, I've got a lot of time on my hands. I usually get 1-2 hours in after work unless my girl's up, more on the weekends (I usually take fridays off as well).

I logged 200+ a few times years ago when I kept blowing out my knee playing hockey and had nothing better to do. I don't really understand how anyone can do that consistently, but hey... who am I to judge.

Im a lazy ****head who is so disillusioned with real life that I changed my mailing address to MIDMESA  A15.
