Title: Are you playing too much Aces High?
Post by: Nifty on July 05, 2001, 10:34:00 AM

Here's an interesting little stat to check out for yourself...  Take your total time and divide by 744 (the number of hours from june 1 thru july 1) to find out the percentage of time of your life you devoted to the AH Main Arena last tour.

I did 20.8 hours in the MA for about a 2.8% of my life in June.  I probably easily added another 15-20 hrs (if not more) in the Snapshots and Check 6! events, but can't access those times.

 ;)  I know there are people out there that are gonna break 10% even 15% for the MA...  anybody think someone will break 20%???

77hrs 10.4%
I did a one similar before but subtracted work/schools hrs(168hrs) and 8hrs a day for sleep (248hrs). Then it's really scary  :)

744 - (168+248) = 328 waking free time hours

77 AH hrs / 328 = 24% of my free time is spent playing AH, I must get alot of enjoyment out of it ... or I don't have a life  :)

If I did that I couldn't do 8 hrs a day for sleep.  There have been many a weeknight where I got 6 hrs or less sleep as a direct result of playing AH!!  "Sure!!  I can do ONE more sortie!"  famous last words...   :D

on a side note about time...  I might not be post much else today, gotta get some stuff done here at work for once!   :eek:

4.4%, whew, it's not divorce time yet  ;)

6.8% of waking time (if you assume a 16 hour waking period)

Buhdman, out

anybody think someone will break 20%???

There are usually several guys above that figure.  I did it myself once on another game.    :)

I personally logged just over 44 hours (A personal record) which  comes out to 5.9%

However, I noticed that Yumi logged 254 hours which comes up to34.1%.  :eek:  What is even more amusing is that TOD 17 was his first month!

Jeret, one of my squad mates logged 144 hours which is 19.4%

Ya know that playing the game is only part of the time spent on AH.  Factor in BBS reading and posting, day dreaming about that new system, searching for new stuff for the puter on the web..ta da ta da....etc, etc....well, we spend alot of time  :)

Ok, enough about how much time we spend!!!
Next topic:How much time do we spend at work on AH? (Bosses are required to wear blinders if they read beyond this point) heheeeeeeeee

Check out Kbman's log time.  147 hrs!!! That's about 20% of his time.  He definitely CAN'T be married OR have a job.  Sorry Kb, I just HAD to let the cat outta the bag   :D

The 20% barrier will be broken this month by at least one player. If you use Eagler's method which seems alot more realistic, he's actually on the 45% mark of his free time / life. :eek:

Actually, it's pretty smart, he's down to paying on average 20 cents/hour.
