What are you doing to pass the time before RELEASE?

I was playing WoW but got bored. So now I am obsessively checking these forums and watching the Food Network.

Reading Speaker for the Dead.

Elected not to read the rest of the Ender saga after I first read Ender's Game a long time ago. I know now that it was a mistake, Speaker is much better than Ender's Game, I think.

I'm working on a custom skin, putting My Face into the game for use on my custom Sovereign....mwhhahahaha.

Playing AI Wars: Fleet Command.  The AI is tearing through my defenses destroying my bases after overextending myself in a deep strike attack. I don't think I'm going to last too much longer.

Slashdot... F5F5F5F5... Slashdot... F5F5F5F5

Rinse, repeat.

Listening to the Gorillaz and writing some philosophy.

Also, Ravenx has the better idea. Pix on how it turns out.

I'm signing in to work from home. And by "work" I mean "Watching Farscape series 1 and relying on them to call me if there's anything they'd particularly like me to do something about".

participating in a fantasy football draft that is taking a loooooong time.

Will do, but that won't come till later tonight. I'm using an actual picture of my face and I'm not sure if it will even show up in game or not because of the resolution, but I'll find out soon enough. Since I still have Beta 4 installed I could just try it in that but I'm not done yet. The unwrapped face skins aren't imediately recognizable unless you know what you're looking at so it looks kinda funny until I get it applied to an actual Sov in game. I'll keep everyone posted.

Very true. I'm trying for a more realistic look though, plus some added fantasy elements. My Sov has my face but the face make-up from The Crow on the eyes and red demon looking pupils. So it's like a eviler looking version of me mixed with the Crow and Raistlin Majere. Good stuff.

Just playin some AOE3. It's entertaining, but I'm not that much in a RTS mood. I fear if I start playing Civ4, though, I'll get hooked on that for a week and miss the release of elemental. Not really sure what else to play right now. I could always finish finding the damn pigeons in GTA4 (and by finding I mean going through the maps online as those things are simply tedious and not fun to look for). Never did finish Red Dead Redemption either. It seems Rockstar games have worn a little thin for me and just aren't that fun to play anymore. Oh well. I'll figure something out.

Listening to the Big History lecture series and playing PoxNora

Those lectures are awesome!

Im playing some Baldur's gate 2.

Banging my head repeatedly against the monitor screen.

Wow, I didn't expect so many responses so quickly. RavenX, you'll have to show us the result of your sovereign when finished.

Reading Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay books while waiting...

It's almost 11pm here in germany and i don't plan to sleep anytime soon

Reading the Dwarf Fortress wiki ...

Going to cut and split wood...and sweat...a LOT!

DL Spellforce gold.................trying to race through that before my Limited Edition comes in the mail sometime this week.

DF!!  Awesome game!  If only it were multi-player.

Myself, I am updating Windows and drivers whilst monitoring these forums!

Will do. I'm going to do a whole custom "Ravenloft" (meaning the faction name I always use, not Ravenloft from D&D) faction and post it in the modding forums so people can literally put me in their game . If everyone did that we could have "Elemental: Wars of the Forum Goers" which I think would be pretty kick ass .

I'm listening to baseball and surfing the Internets.  Hooray for lazy Sundays, Elemental can come when it comes.

Just beat Peggle. Finally.
