What do I do for two weeks?

Déjà Bru · 03-08-2018, 08:07 PM

Two weeks to go. Any suggestions what I do in the meantime while waiting for this fabulous egg to hatch?

Watch TV? Nah. Not that desperate.
Go to a ballgame? Nah. Not that far south.
Sleep? Hmmm. Maybe, like Rip Van Winkle? I'd be afraid of oversleeping.
Eat snacks until I'm too fat to reach the keyboard? Uh, no.
The other worldly delight heretofore unmentioned? I'm between engagements at this time.

I know! I'll hang around here and post nonsense for two weeks. Yeah, that's the ticket!

I purchased a much bigger monitor just for this game and will be spending the next week and a half building a new computer hutch to accommodate. Will take my time building this, applying stain and poly...IS IT THE 19TH YET????

Dragging my feet through my current post-season to try to have "something" to do until 19 comes out and I can upgrade for my new season....

They call me "Stud Muffin." When they call me at all, that is. As I said, I am currently between engagements and I have been for quite a while. I wonder why?

It helps you and it helps us to get through these two weeks.

tlowe77 · 03-09-2018, 12:57 AM

Prepare, prepare and more preparing. I've been setting up my fictional league/country for the last 8 months for this version. It's going to be an Out Of The Park year!

So how big is this monitor Kegman?

why twiddle thumb for the next 2 weeks when one can practice and see what other creative ways to make a winner by making new game. Just a thought anyways. Plus it helps keep boredom away

Bruce, you thumb-sucking whiner! Man up! It's only a game. It's only a game!

JaBurns · 03-09-2018, 04:09 PM

I am working on perfecting my setup for random debut league with unaffiliated minors in 18 so I can start a league after the first couple of updates for 19.

Déjà Bru · 03-09-2018, 05:23 PM

Why are all you people acting so calmly rational? Are you not experiencing the same cool game deprivation hysteria as I am?

I forgot whose turn it is in my conversation with myself. Is it you Bruce? No, it's you, Bruce. Why, thank you, Bruce.

Now, where was I? Oh yeah, something about manning up. I'm sorry I called me, uh, you, a "thumb-sucking whiner."

"That's OK, Bruce. You were right, and it is only a game after all."

"Yeah, but it's only 13 days to go now, pal!"

"Right on! Give me one of these, yeah:

"

"Brews for Bru's! I love ya, man.

"

Meticulously setting up a new universe for OOTP 19, random historical, not happy with my old one. Having trouble tweaking all of the settings but enjoying every minute.

Also, waiting for Good Friday so I can have a cold one with my buddies!!
