Oh, and I completely forgot the topic.:rotfl:

I haven't played SH3 for real in more than two years. I've been back in my own place with my own computer for four months, but I spend all my time either testing or doing research. I load it up and look at it a lot, though.

I am retired and my mate still works so I play GWX about 3-4 hours a day. I also research the web and the forum for stuff that may be of interest to the forum. If I find something of interest I add it to my below site. This usually takes 3-4 hours per day to maintain.

I really need to get a new life. At this point the forum and GWX is all I do....

How many hours do you play????

In my opinion not enough, my wife on the other hand is expressing her point of view quite vocally just recently!
I get in from work at 5pm, look through the forum for about an hour, load up SH3 and I'm on that until 8:15pm weekdays.
Weekends, well, Saturday (daytime) i'm trawling for Mods and stuff, Saturday night I'll start it up at about midnight and run it solid for 5 hours, then another 4 hours on Sunday afternoon. So it's getting on for 20 hrs at the moment.
I know soon I'm going to get faced with an ultimatum, it's either me or that sub!

Well that sub does look kinda sexy!

Herr Trigger.

I have no life.........

Who cares when your sinking Battleships in GWX2.1

The working week must be cut to a couple of hours a day to make more room for hunting in the high seas I say.

Well im glad we all have the same problem, were all addicts! I wonder if theres a rehab for guys like us? Goldenrivet, i was an aircraftspray painter and i could scare the hell out of you guys if i told you what we found over the years when we where pulling them apart. I used to scare the hell out of the owners after we put them back together, i used to show them the bucket of the old bolts and screws and say " gee it went back together really well, and look we have all these bits left over" lol

Been busy researching ship names, testing mods, talking with others about mods, updates and related things.

How many hours a week do I spend with SH3? Oh, maybe twenty.

How many hours a week do I spend looking at it? Maybe five

How many hours a week do I spend playing it? None.

I've promised myself that next month I'm going to devote a couple of hours per night to playing (took the untimely death of an ex RN friend to pass away suddenly last week to bring me to this conclusion)

RIP Billy GEE

Condolences jimbuna, it often take the loss of someone we know to see what we have been missing.
