Where does everyone play OOTP20(location)?

Orioles1966 · 03-25-2019, 01:11 PM

I play in the kitchen on a large table.

To the left on me is a Roku TV and can watch MLB games(or any other sport or movies,tv shows,etc) while I am playing.

Usually music playing in the background(today its my Brennan B2).

IanIachimoe · 03-25-2019, 01:20 PM

home office with MLB.tv running.

a separate 9x9 room, where my music collection is always on (11,000+ Cds) and an older Win 8.1 computer that has two functions in life: OOTP and software to edit/expand my music collection. At this age in life - it's my two guilty pleasures.

Have you ever checked out Brennan B2(available at Amazon) for larger CD collections?

Stupid question, but is that Townes Van Zandt as your avatar?

When I renovated the basement last year I created a half wall to separate the computer area from the main home theater viewing area. It allows me to still do work, play games while either baseball or hockey play on the TV.

Jwalk100 · 03-25-2019, 02:08 PM

I play OOTP in my man cave with MLB tv or MILB tv on in the background.

David Watts · 03-25-2019, 02:10 PM

I play in a spare bedroom we converted into a computer room. In other words a room my wife doesn't have to shake her head and ask why her husband sits in front of a computer so much pushing the space bar over and over and over, sometimes doing a bad Ernie Harwell or George Kell imitation.

Oh and I see most of you watch sports or listen to music while playing. Well I do some of that as well, but 9 times out of 10, you will find me listening/watching bad made for television movies on Lifetime or LMN while playing OOTP. There I said it. The cats ------out of the bag. I've loved made for television movies going back to the days of The Burning Bed. Would love to write a book about the history of these awful movies some day.....or just meet and spend a day with Meredith Baxter.

Man cave with baseball or football on the TV. Or sometimes AHC.

Germaniac · 03-25-2019, 02:23 PM

Right here on my computer in Frankenthal, Rhineland-Palatine in Germany

polydamas · 03-25-2019, 02:37 PM

In my bedroom on my desktop and then anywhere I want with my laptop. I'm still hoping for the day when OOTP integrates cloud saving. I could pay for a cloud service, but I don't really have the money for frivolities.

BirdWatcher · 03-25-2019, 02:41 PM

I live alone so I play wherever the heck I wish to.

But in all seriousness, sitting right here (as I am now) in my living room, with my laptop hooked up to my TV monitor.
Listening, usually, to either a Rockies game on the radio or music through my Sonos system.

Not to derail the thread but I love Sonos. Got a Sonos system myself!

Living room: L&R stereo paired Sonos ones. Sonos beam sound bar and sonos sub. Man that thing bumpssss!

Kitchen: 1 Sonos one.

Loft: L&R stereo paired Sonos ones. Sonos beam sound bar with my 65" LG OLED. This is my "man loft" instead of man cave.

Master bathroom/bedroom: 1 Sonos one.

I love whole home audio. Got the movie theatre experience as well I love it!

But usually I would play OOTP in my man loft but the wife and I recently got a new puppy so I am on the first floor majority of the Time on the couch playing and with the puppy, usually with the tv on - movies, shows, sports!

nope. i have all my music on CDs (transferred many from vinyl) - nd backed up on 6 external HD. This way, i can listen to them in my truck (whenever it gets out of the shop) or family car. i indulge in my collection whenever i can and playing OOTp gives me a lot of time to do so.

works really well for my needs.

indeed it is. Along with Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, John Stewart - Townes Van Zandt is one of the greatest songwriters of folk rock i can think of.

I do so on my desktop in the spare bedroom, which has become my computer/guitar/exercise room. Now that I have multiple monitors I pretty much live in here now.

Okay, can we just make believe that the final thing on your deal doesn't say avatar is Townes Van Zandt? Can't believe I asked that and it was staring me in the face all along.

Edster007 · 03-25-2019, 04:01 PM

On my mac book in my recliner either listening to music or watching tv or a Delta flight (I travel for business a lot) which then leads to playing in my hotel room...

bborello · 03-25-2019, 04:04 PM

On my couch with theNats game on or MLB tv and a Padres game.
