My Most Awesome Week?

[BlueSoup]

30 days in entirety, Brynne, not consecutively.    But I'm almost there with you!

I realized something about my count too.  This account is my second one, and the first one had like 6 days on it or so.  So, really, it's about 26 days altogether. 

[ElviraGoth]

5 d, 22 h, 41 min.  And I thought THAT was a lot!

However, I know I don't post a lot, mostly read and get some good info or a good laugh!

Ah, okay. I can see that, then. If I was here for 30 consecutive days, then I would have to have myself committed.

[BlueSoup]

Me too, Brynne, me too.

Since MATY doesn't push any refreshes, and HTTP is inherently stateless, the system only considers you "online" in 15 minute slices or so. Meaning even if you leave your computer open all the time, you are not "online" unless you actually click on something here.

uh, what? This site does *not* disconnect me after 15 min. I leave my computer on all the time, use a push in my email to keep it connected (as I'm on dial-up) and might check it in the morning, then leave for work, and it's still connected when I get home at night (somewhere between 9 & 10 hours later). And logging that time, near as I can tell (I've got 15 days, 9 hours, 41 min.). I don't play the sims from this computer, and when someone else does something else on this one while I'm off playing sims, it's just minimized, so it's up most all the time. I promise, I'm not clicking anything from work - I log in from my work computer at lunch sometimes and it has (as it should) a different IP log.

It's pretty sad when you wake up in the morning and your first thought is, I wonder if I have enough time to play Sims before going to work.

Even sadder if you wonder whether you have time to check out MATY and squeeze in just 10mins so that you can let [insert name of sim] get further through uni or have that baby  

Only 1 day, 21 hours so far but I've only been here since 8 Dec - I'm working on it 

[Ancient Sim]

By the way, Ancient Sim, you know by saving all those messages that you've hit your limit of 20, right?  No one can send you any more until you delete some.

I thought it was 10 posts per set of lips?  If so, I have 10 more posts to go. 

[BlueSoup]

Nope, you start out with 5 and get an additional 5 for each set of lips.

I'll test it right now and try to send you a PM.

Edit: This is the message I got:  PM could not be sent to 'Ancient Sim' as their inbox is full!

21 days, 7 hours and 48 minutes.

I don't have a life.

I don't have a life.

But it seems like the kitten in your avatar does

but nothing within range of the window does 

[Brynne]

I would like to know who voted for "You need to get a life" in the poll. 

[Kristalrose]

I've only been here two days.  What can I say, I'm a slacker.   

[Ephraim]

I've been here all of ten hours and with all my lips intact.   

I'm more a lurker than I am a poster.   

[Brynne]

But congrats on your 12th post!

You can play the Sims before work - and get to work afterwards?

Wow. If I tried that, I'd be out of a job pretty quickly...

[vecki]

Hey, vecki, you have 3 messages, 0 are new.
Total time logged in: 15 days, 13 hours and 39 minutes.

I think I spend too much time on here at work

[J. M. Pescado]

This from the man who has 20 days! 

Hey, I run this site. And it's fully established that the undead are, in fact, pretty lifeless.

Funnily enough, it isn't that hard to do. I have a timer which sits in front of my monitor and I decide how much time I have to play e.g. 1/2 hr in the morning and maybe 2hrs at night.  You do have to be firm with yourself though and when that alarm goes off you have to finish.

[Brynne]

That's the tricky part. I have a timer, too. All it does it tell me when it's time to reset it for another hour.

[MsMaria]

We sound like a bunch of AA people.

Hi. My name is Maria and I have spent 12 days, 8 hours and 45 minutes at MATY.

[Brynne]

Aw, you're still wet behind the ears, then. 

[cristalfiona]

And before this thread i thought my 10 days, 9 hours and 39 minutes were a lot. I need to start coming on here outside of work!!

[anelca]

i need to start coming here during work

[Lythdan]

Think I've been a member since November...11 days, 15 hours... Wow. I blame the school holidays...funny how we're going on holidays again in two and a half weeks...silly Commonwealth Games...
