    Life Hack: Use Steam Link to wait in the queue :^)

    Something I tried for the first time today is logging into my computer with Steam Link while I was at work and entering the queue, so that I would be an hour down on my wait time by the time I got home. (My commute is about an hour, unfortunately for me)

    And hey, it worked! By the time I was home, my character was already in-game ready for me to start playing.

    Steam Link is what I use, but this solution would probably work with any remote desktop app/program.

    Just a life hack for my fellow 9-5ers who don't have time to wait a year when they get home.

    DISCLAIMER: Negative Space carries no responsibility if you are 2002'd while you are on the road, or if you miscalculate the amount of time the queue takes and get AFK logged before you get home, although I guess you could pull over and poke the screen every 25-ish minutes to remove AFK status but I don't condone that

    I did this too one evening when I was out. Even recovered my spot from Error:2002, and do a bit of gear repair just before I got home.

    Great solution. Way to think outside the box for solutions.

    Unlike well most of these kids.
