    No, I don't means beer, etc. I mean, what do you do ?

    I went out a bought myself a small desktop disco ball. Maybe it will help me as they say back then 'staying alllliiiive ! hahahah !'.

    So how do you have a happy game time ?

    ( Clean answers please. )

    Music for me. I turn off the game music and put iTunes on while playing. Selection depends entirely on what mood I'm in, but I like harvesting to Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries.

    wow that's some dramatic harvesting, rhodris.

    Nothing better than having the wife and kiddos there to game with for me.

    But... If doing some solo crafting or gathering I'm going to have to throw my hat in for some metal also. Some sludge preferably. Acid Bath or Crowbar lately. An adult beverage or three is nice as well :)

    It doesn't matter what I do in game to be happy. When I'm playing I've escaped the real world for a short period of time.

    For music, Janis Joplin or Jimi Hendrix would be my want.

    Make a short list of items or achievements you want in the game, and go after them one by one. Checking something off of a list is a great source of happiness.

    i use movie theme music when I harvest... I try to match the zone with the song, ya know.. For zones with heavy foliage / trees and whatnot - stuff like the theme from Jurassic Park.. Doomfire, I like using Empires March.. Indiana Jones for Vegarlson.. etc. Mostly the orchestral stuff from John Williams.

    Back when I had an inappropriately decorated guild hall - I replaced the in-game music with Jennifer Lopez's song Booty. House actors with the /flirt, /shimmy etc... replete with caged stages and those tinkered lights that look like whirling spotlights... good times.

    I like Wagner as well Rhodris.

    If I am crafting in my hall to fill my broker or for a deco project, I have Under Pressure by Queen/David Bowie in there.

    I just ticked "liking a post by Interstella" off my list!

    I also watch NASA tv, when they are showing the Earth floating by, below the international space station.

    Actually, when I'm just looking down time in the game? I like to harvest. Its kind of a catharsis in the evenings before dinner, after a long commute & busy day. Plus I make no small amount of plat selling rares.
