Sharpening all my pencils.

I'm playing OOTP5. I'm having so much fun with this league I started that I don't want it to end. May 31 is actually coming too fast. But I guess 2006 will be so much better that I will do this all over again:

and this

Sweed · 05-12-2006, 07:25 PM

Playing FM and loving it. Normally I'd be chomping at the bit waiting for the new ootp but FM is doing a good job of distracting me. Don't take that the wrong way though, even while I'm involved in FM, in the back of my mind ootp is calling my name

Playing around with a program called WikiPad, I think I'll be using it to map out the story of my Newfoundland & Labrador baseball league when I finally get my hands on the game.

Interesting idea..getting your hands on something that will never physically exist...how metaphysical.

Figure of speech, perhaps?

Hotwheelz · 05-12-2006, 07:38 PM

Im still playing OOTP 6.5. Madden takes my interest every couple of days. Other than those two games I have been helping my girlfriend with the kids while she works. Watching a lot of TV (National Geographic, Discovery, etc. so its actually educational). Reading.

Beach23BoyP · 05-12-2006, 07:44 PM

Playing 6.51a (just finished my 1964 season as Champs!) and FM2006. However, as much as I enjoy watching soccer (I mean football) on TV -- I'm losing interest with FM2006. But, I'm still going strong with 6.51a.

disposableheros · 05-12-2006, 08:03 PM

a little reading (A Tale of Two Cities), research on the investment portfolios i handle, playing MLB: The Show, tending to my online league teams, riling up the "truth seeking" anti-government conspiracy theory believing nutjob over at the BM forums (kingmob), attending Angels games, attending Ducks games, going to the beach, looking at pr0n, drinking alcohol, watching the Yankee games on ESPN, eating, sleeping, urinating, ****ting, having sex with my wife, and lots of other stuff thats not coming to me at the moment.

r0nster · 05-12-2006, 08:06 PM

I am just trying to relearn this game and see if there is any leagues to participate in as a rookie to get my feet wet

White Sox · 05-12-2006, 11:22 PM

Besides checking the boards and watching baseball when it's on TV, I just randomly pulled out Sim City 2000 the other day. That's occupied my time for the past 24 hours. A little APBA as well, if anyone knows what that is.

DreamTeams · 05-12-2006, 11:26 PM

Checking the boards, getting used to my new system, playing exhibition games in ootp6.5a and putting in a load of time customizing and playing Bowl Bound College Football.

cephasjames · 05-12-2006, 11:53 PM

Planning my worlds. Playing some Oblivion. Playing some Tomb Raider: Legend.

Life.

Not neccessarily in that order.

Looks good, but it appears one must own Viking Invasion to use it. I don't. Pure vanilla.
