Title: So I haven't been...
Post by: Troublesome Moral Code on March 05, 2006, 03:35:00 am
...feeling like playing lately. More specifically, since that 4:06 incident, was disappointing to say the least.

We've all been through this kind of rut, so when/how does it happen to you and how long does it last? I suspect I'll be out for another day or so, maybe I'll take up Ryan's B2 challenge in the meantime. :p

Is this really topic-worthy? When I don't feel like playing, I simply don't play. I'm not making a topic about it.

I get in those kind of periods all the time (loss of motivation and stuff) some worse some... :rolleyes  yeah heh like now I've most been thinking stuff and taking a walk outside and stuff. Often after a break you'll be better coz if you try playing just to get your rank up and not because you really feel like actually doing the playing itself then you won't perform any good.

 So breaks are good and stuff and maybe this topic could be usefull to talk stuff like this. I'm thinking lots at the moment like what should I do with my life, get a job and own apartment, dunno. It's like playing GE and the other life there, trying to find balance in things and what do I really want who am I @#%$ ah :p

My ruts don't last long.  I can't go more than a day or two without playing.  Then its just like OMG PRs.  Play some level you like or something, instead of some @#%$ level.  That usually helps.

I've been in a mega rut ever since Dan passed me for 3rd really. I had a strong desire to finally get 2nd on Silo though, so I did. Since then I just don't care to play solo like I used to. Doesn't help that my luck is generally suck-ass, and I also don't have the time like I did back in the day.

I've been in a rut with GE for 2 years and 3 months now.

Good luck with yours, Mouser!

everytime I take a break for a week, sometimes even just 3 days when I come back and do a lot better. i guess it's like everything else, you don't get results by wearing the hell out of yourself in one session, it builds up over time.

^Agree

Anyhoot, this morning I woke up feeling like I had an invinvibility cheat on or something and my hands were in turbo mode. So I go to play and as soon as I enter a level it's gone. Not the first that's happened :lol  Oh well, I'll try again in a sec. Today was tiring. :|  Tomorrow I got things to do, so hopefully Tuesday I'll have nothign to worry about. :)

And for the last time Brandon, yes it's taped. ;)  You'll be the first to get the vid infact, you and Alex.

I like to download videos and think "How easy, I'll go get that time now..." and then I play a few tries, fail my ass off, and quit for months at a time.

I DON'T WANT TO PLAY.  I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO WITH MY LIFE.  WHAT THE FRICKING HELL???

Oh man... I want to play, no I don't, I can't take it anymore!  But I have to keep playing.  I have to get 1:56.  I have to...   because if I don't, I'll never get it and everyone will yell at me... but I don't want to waste so much of my life on something so utterly POINTLESS... I'm @#%$ addicted to this game, what the @#%$ hell?  FUCKFUCKDFUCKFUCK MY LUNGS ARE ON FIIIIIIRE DSglhkshfhfknmxhxyker5D&N I$SYP &DUSB N$:O%&BU %$d7s;s43j34 yeree g54 g5r..r44.6. hf.6............................ ok I need to calm down

WJHHHHHHHYYYYYYY?????????

I can't keep doing this.  1:56 drove me over the edge last time and it's doing it again.  If I don't stop now, I'll probably end up killing myself...
