How do you spend your time waiting in the login queue?

I tend to use my login queue time for cleaning or other housekeeping things. During my latest queue, I got all the floors cleaned and the laundry done.

How do you spend your time in the login queue?

If I get stuck in a longer queue, I spend it drawing... or trying to.

I'm a bit slow to start sometimes, so I can easily waste a solid hour and a half just staring at a blank canvas for lack of ideas/epiphany about the ideal execution for a particular piece. Since I've kind of forgotten how to just doodle, every single thing I draw is a fully shaded affair, so, between mapping out a piece, doing the lineart, and coloring it, it'll take me far longer than any queue I've experienced thus far.

If it's not that, I just chat with my FC, vacuum my house, brush the cat, etc.

Forum lurking or youtube. Or both. Usually both.

Either browsing reddit, building my Warhammer backlog, watching youtube or just decide to wait until after dinner to start playing.

Cleaning - grooming - cooking - and anime. Just glad to be out of work and the whine people there... looking forward to logging in to be with my other whiny people. lol

Dishes, food, watching videos. I was using it to catch up on my Gunpla backlog, but that's done now. Maybe I should get back to Pokemon Brilliant Diamond.

Building the UCS AT-AT from LEGO. 2 bags left. And I've had it since the week of launch. Haven't spent a terrible amount of time in queue tbh. Maybe 2-2.5 hrs after work.

I do a bit of housework, or do dishes or cook something. A lot of times I have some kind of a time management game going at the same time and I will play that while waiting in the queue. I also watch TV or listen to podcasts and books on tape. Right now I am on this forum while waiting.

Forum or Reddit lurking, watching YouTube, or sharing progress with my other friends trapped in the queue. Which one of us will have the most 2002 errors before we get into the game?

Usually watching streams, playing Spore or reflecting about the direction my life is going and losing my motivation to play anything.

Every time you 2002 out, take a shot. Take two if you lose your spot in the queue before you get back.

That would be an astounding drinking game. I love it.

Eating, watching/picking a show, playing with my kittens, mixing chocolate milk

Browse the web, play other games and watch videos.

Just finished The Witcher S2. Excellent as always.

Every minute I don't get to play I torture small animals and scream at the top of my lungs. I also hack the servers of non-profits and reroute all their money to advancing nuclear missile research. Squeenix is technically at fault for everything I do.

Witcher, season 2! \●/

I don't. I do all my stuff early in the morning and then either work or play GW2 for the rest of the day.

Recently discovered you can apparently log in on other data centers while in queue for one, so play 14 on a EU server while waiting to play on a US server.

I've been slowly making my way through Nioh 2 when I can't play FFXIV. Very cool game. If inspiration hits me I'll work on new job ideas.

Either watching HOKUTO NO KEN or playing Payday 2.
Simple as.

I've been playing BOTW while waiting for longer queues on the Switch, or I'd run errands or do homework.

Walk my dog if its not too cold outside.

Alt-tab plays another game like minecraft, monster hunter or whatever i am in the mood for.

I wait the 30 seconds it takes to get in.

If the queue is long enough, like tonight, I just get right out of it and go do something else.

Tonight I'm looking at a 5k queue. I'll be asleep by the time it's done.

queues last for 3h~ so i have time to watch 2 movies lol

Housework, workout, grooming and watch netflix or browse internet.

1. netflix
2. Twitch or youtube
3. The Hub.

Ride my metallic flaming chocobo that spits maple syrup through Ontario, Canada trying to conquer what land masses I can, check to see if I've qued in, if not then I ride through Toronto looking for Trish Stratus so I can make her my Empress when I become Supreme Emperor Overlord of Canada.

Sleep.Wait. Sleep some more. Wait some more. Sleep even more. Wait a little more. Decide to get something to eat. Put food in microwave. See that I got in while food is in microwave. Try to eat food as fast as can before I get kicked out of game.
