reasons for inactivity

Post by insane guy »

(to mods: i think i have already started a topic like this some time ago, but search didnt find it...)

why are you (temporarily) inactive?

i dont play much elma any more because:
the 2 main things i do atm is work and sleep, because working at the sleeping laboratory is very exhausting, i come back from work, go to bed, stay up in the evening just to go back to work. if i dont have to stay the whole night, i come back and am tired, so i go to sleep...

i dont make insane levels anymore because:
i lost patience and endurance to make really "high-quality-levs" with lots of testing and shit, didnt do that for atleast 1 year.
i dont make many battle levs anymore because:
imagine this:

insguy: i have sucky lev
t0m: i want first
Wink: i said 1 hour ago that i want to make balle
frinkyman: NO ITS MY TURN NOW!!!
insguy: ....

i dont know where all these new ppl came from but i hate all these sucky 10 sec-levs and i dont want to wait 1 hour to start my fuckin balle that turns out to be a really shitty lev in the end....[/b]

I thought mila would have more time after GF lose. Seems it is opposite.

Could battle bot have some queue for levels?

My situation; when I started seeing my girlfriend last March, added to my studies which are in most crucial point at the moment I believe, it has just taken too much time from my free time to play "seriously" any more at the moment. Elmawise, things got even more worse when I moved together in a new apartment with her.

I still love it really much every time I start elma and play a battle or two, the feeling is there and hasn't gone anywhere. It's just the situation in my life which prevents me to play alot. Maybe I could (more or less), but then again I know it would hurt things in my real life. I know that, it's happened in the past and I just don't want it to happen again.

So I could say, I'm just not very active playing at the moment, but I follow much related to the scene daily.
