My name is _____, and I have a problem.

[Deleted member 4644]

I play a lot of video games. Not an *insane* amount, but anywhere from 1-8 hours a day, usually averaging about 3.

Otherwise my life is decent. I am in grad school, I get laid now and then, etc.

But.. I would like an MMORPG/Video game timer software. Does such a thing exist?

Thx.

Ask your friends to punch you in the face if you play more than x hours.

Works well.

 

[pontifex]

you mean something to prevent you from playing games after a set period of time?
some games, like wow (i think), have it built in. i've never heard of such a thing specifically for games.

oh, and wrong forum.

Well then tell them to channel/fireball you


Seriously, when I was a kid my dad would put a timer on my computer. You know, the kind that you would have to turn on/off lights in your house. Then he put said timer in a toolbox and put a lock on it.

Shot of Jack Daniels every 10 minutes is the best timer, since you'll just eventually just pass out from drunkenness, plus it will make the game more fun along the way. :thumbsup:

LOL. It is replies like this that make me come back to OT, rather than another, more relevant forum, such as software.

Last time you said that I woke up with a gerbil in my anus and whip cream around my mouth.



It was pretty fun though.

Or you could just get some self-control.

What's that?

Hahaha. I've done this (with vodka instead of JD) while playing Team Fortress 2. It's really fun for awhile, then you get a buzz and miss more shots, then you're drunk and just can't do shit, and about that time I get off the computer and go to bed.

Set parental control time limit on your consoles and MMORPG accounts and throw away the password?

I'm holding out on Super Smash Bros for Wii for fear it will take over my life and lead to divorce.

Ah man! That's a great idea! I'll have to get my friend who has a wii+brawl to come over for a night!

 

[slayer202]

might not be a program specific to games, but I'm guessing there is a program out there that lets you select certain programs on your computer and then logs how much you spend using each
