I liek...uhm...to like...err...u know...erhm...like to play?
So a hobby. But some people become completely immersed 'n cut off from reality, where there's little else.

Not that one judges :O)
Parent
fuck that it isnt a hobby its a fucking waste of time :d
Parent
the poland vs finland poll will come later...the game isn't for another couple of days!
yes, you answered the question.
Parent
fusen, why dont you make like a hitcounter for a clan and recent visitors maybe? would be cool to look how many ppl check ur clan
Parent
once again this poll failed to offer real options. the fact that some1 (me) anwers to this now is proofing you wrong and write. Since when do the polls only fullfill <16 criterias?
Once again aggressive 'n incoherent :O)

Feel free to suggest a better poll, we've always taken requests.
Parent
read dude, read. "better options to choose from." i didnt even discuss the poll itself. but u r right. there is maybe no correct answer to the question. its just another useless poll wihtout anything to point out.
Parent
It's intentionally vague as obviously there be a million nuances to a question such as this - which be why we have the comments section :O)

'n a poll in itself be irrelevant, it's the comments it generates that matters - 'n check my last few, there be no shortage of those. Have faith ~)
Parent
it is so sad that blind fanbois like you can ever get into a position where they have naything to say. by phrasing that u made a point: do usesless stuff and let the community take it seriously.

u do not have the the right to have any right, blind fanboi.
Parent
how the fuck is he a fanboy? what the hell is he a fanboy of?

jesus grab hold of a thread of logic sometime soon really... what you are saying makes no sense
Parent
agree with meez, you seem not to make any sense.
too bad if you dont like the poll construction, but it asks you a simple question: its a hobby, life or something else. choose one answer. now vote and shut the fuck up.
Parent
You are an idiot. It is a poll that people can take as seriously as they like, and add a comment to, theres even a 3rd option that says 'Something else'. If the other answers arn't for you, pick that one and write a comment :O)
Parent
what happened to ur english :P whats with the you be commenting like this all the time
Parent
Together my friend; we can bring dialect to Crossfire !
Parent
some1 should had some option in crossfire like "Today's Most retarded comment" thingy...
this was supposed to be in the other comment it not about yours :P don't take it personal xD
Parent
Boredom I guess.

And these days I have no motivation to sink time into something like Chess or Go, so I just put a half assed attempt into things I'm already good at, or alternatively things I don't need to get good at to enjoy, eg, worms armageddon, albatross18,
things I'm already good at :\.



Fapping
Parent
its cool
A time filler. Like a candy bar.
I wish I had 500.
xDDDD i agree
Parent
got anything to eat?
Parent
Fills my days, cause it's all about the fun.
A hobby.
wouldnt consider it as a hobby anymore, since i am not playing that much anymore. So rather something else, like dnnow, i mostly play only mixes with people i know/have known for quite some time just for the fun and the lulz.
WHERE IS "DUNNO, ASK PERFO" ???
time killer.
I do it as a hobby, but I don't enjoy playing most of the games I play. It's more of a time-killer, I'd say.
HAHA DO YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT/?????
Parent
a hobby
a hobby of course :o
its like other ppl reading a book ^_^
or not.








..

















or my sarcasm'o meter is shit.
Parent
hobby! i like playing games but that's it
It's not really a hobby, it's just something I like to do do from time to time.
That may sound strange but thats how I think/feel about it
I voted hobby cuz I want you to think I have reallife!
Hobby, I could'nt spend more than 3 hours per day playing some games (Like I used to :( ) ,maybe couple matches of FM2008 per day max
I guess in the past it could be described as a life for me, but these times have gone away long time ago...

Fusen, it also depends on how a person treats a hobby. I, for example, very much like competition - is it a sport or a computer game (and thats mainly why I play ET, for competition with other people, its a team game, no matter if we shoot bullets or flowers). And this made it more serious for me than it should as a stupid computer game. "Made" because I think it's over now, studies 'n stuff!
yerr i agree with you on that (:
Parent
It was my life! And now its nothing anymore!
hmm...maybe a hobby?because i use it to relax
I don't play games anymore, or atleast not how I used to. ET was the first and propably the last game I kept as "hobby". Job and girlfriend take all my attention nowadays and I like it that way; in my freetime whenever I turn my computer on, I surf or make music.
Wanking on ETTV is priceless !
It's a hobby for me, something I enjoy, making other people quit because they get ooned.
its my fucking life without it i wouldnt talk to so many lads with sexy voices a day!
realy big hobby for me ^^
Time killer and an excuse to not do coursework (this is changing nowadays tho, as i am more bored playing games then doing other boring stuff)
It's the fuckin cancer that is killing your life.
And well it lacks at least a "Almost nothing" option, for people who don't play or don't really play anymore.
Something else
used to play to much now im Xbox only. Gonna sell my PC soon
an excuse to get in vent with Cythonic and huPoo
an excuse to get in touch with mAus and Butchji
first time i played super mario on snes i knew im gonna love gaming for as long as i live <3

Parent
a hobby .
why hide peoples answers :( i wanted to see who the real nolifers are!
It's my life
Playing ET is merely a habit that is very hard to lose.
Gaming was for me a long period of meeting e-buddies and having fun with them. The most interesting and enjoyable gaming moments were Lan parties. I wont never forget a long trip to Holland with my car and the whole weekend we spent in Enschede :D

This was my gaming view, which i wont never forget and i will seriously miss it.. ;)
to play ET in the evenings after work together with some nice guys is one of my hobbies.
a hobby but i spended many hours of my life for it oO
A (mostly voluntary) job first, and a hobby second.
i think a hobby is a understatement but its the closest one there
If people would be honest in this poll, it would show that for about 80% of the community it's definitely their life.
its my life its now or never!
its to kill time
MY WHOLE FUCKING LIFE §!!!!!!!!
i'd say a hobby in combination with (technical) interest.
*cough* Something else:
Cheatbusting D:?
Parent
becoming the center of all internet-hate?
Parent
Is a hobby, is fun, is passion, is wonderful, is the better thing of the world
is my life....
when et dies, i die.
Gaming is my life.

Family, working, drinking and friends, theyre just hobbies.
dont really game anymore
everything i have
A way to make money!
Et is for me as a pastime
