Hang Out and Post

It's hard to max the first time but after that, it tends to get a bit easier. Thankfully I found a pattern where I can max SOSD less than 4 hours so that I'm free to play other games!

 

Good luck to Krawk Island btw :)

[Spritzie]

I get distracted WAY too easily to max in 4 hours. Generally, when I max at work, it takes me pretty much 10 hours, because I keep getting distracted.

 

The quickest I've maxed was yesterday, I managed in 5.5 hours, with some breaks.

[flyingeevee]

A huge improvement Spritzie :laughingsmiley:

 

Thank goodness my mind goes blank the more I play so it does help out...but when I play the other games I need music playing in the background or some youtube playlist to keep going!

[Spritzie]

I'm still too distracted, even with music. It helps but I still watch my game count. But I don't do that at all with an audio book. I wish I'd tried it earlier.

 

If I don't keep my mind occupied, I start thinking of random things. Next thing I know, I'm searching petpets, then pet colors, then I'm on Dress to Impress, then I'm reading news, then I'm on Yahoo. Then, an hour or more has gone by. :whistle:

Actually, listening to music while playing is a very good idea. It keeps you entertained and keeps your mind fresh. I did that when I used to do homework. :P

[Spritzie]

My mind isn't occupied enough with music. My mind still wanders.

[flyingeevee]

I get VERY distracted when I play slushie slinger...that's probably why I don't enjoy it too much :P

 

It's kind of disheartening to know earlier that a lot of Krawk Island members REALLY don't like that Mystery Island is doing so well this year. It got crazy on the boards that even a few members tried to "troll" on us or making separate boards about how we used to be so terrible so there's no way we're going to beat powerhouses :( Is it THAT bad that my team is finally doing well? It just makes me wanna play more to show them that ANY team can rise!

That what I always do online - I always listen to Youtube, and often have a playlist going.

...Anyone here like Taylor Swift? I have a 25 song playlist of just her if you want it.

[Ashbash]

^Taylor Swift is amazing. I just bought her new song she did with B.O.B. and I love it.

 

As for maxing out, I've never maxed out any of the games.

[jumpingbeans]

Yes, she is.

 

I've hardly played any games this year.

[Anisha]

Taylor Swift is okay, I guess. But I prefer Amy Lee from Evanescence. She has a god-like voice.

[jumpingbeans]

...I don't think I've ever heard her. What kind of music does she do?

[Anisha]

Amy Lee is the lead singer of the band Evanescence. They usually sing alternative rock, my favorite genre.

[Ashbash]

I actually can't stand Amy Lee's voice. I'm not sure why because I typically enjoy most music. Her voice just bugs me for some reason. I'm the same with Nora Jones as well. It's a shame to because I find a lot of evanesence's songs to be catchy but I get annoyed by them. :(

[Spritzie]

I love Taylor Swift. I have most of her CDs, I think. I just got her first one. I've been meaning to get it for ages.

 

I like Amy Lee's voice. I misplaced my Evanesence CD years ago though.

[Anisha]

I tried some Taylor Swift music, but I couldn't get hold of her songs. =/

 

I am listening to Paramore these days. And Skillet.

[Ashbash]

Paramore has some really good songs. I hated the song The Only Exception when I first heard it but now it's one of my favorites. I don't think I've ever heard anything by Skillet.

[Naamah D.]

I'm MallGoth so I tend to dabble within my comfort zone of music. I like Evanescence but haven't gotten their most recent CD. The Birthday Massacre is probably my favorite. I also like The 69 Eyes, HIM, just lots of bands.

[Spritzie]

I don't really have any genre I tend to stick to. Though since I get migraines easily, especially triggered by loud noises, I do tend to lean towards music that's more on the quiet end. But I'll listen to anything I happen to like the sound of, whether it's R&B, pop, country, rock, folk.

[Anisha]

I have always been an alternative rock & punk rock fan. I like metal, but not heavy. R&B is okay. So is pop. I am not very fond of country though.

[Naamah D.]

Country music makes me sick to my stomach :sick01: No joke, it really does!

[Ashbash]

I used to always hate country but now that I'm around more people that listen to it I'm actually starting to like some of it.

[Alynniae]

ooooh, music :)

 

i really like k-pop, and j-pop, and the older music like guns 'n roses and queen ;)

oh, taylor swift is great too, she really has a beautiful voice, i just LOVE safe and sound, which was made for the hunger games movie :)

[Ashbash]

Someone in one of my classes this past semester did a presentation on J-pop. I had never heard of it before then but it seems to really be getting popular.

[Neo_Girl]

I used to mostly listen to rock, but nowadays I'll listen to anything as long as it's good (to me, lol). I like country, but not so much Taylor Swift. Her voice and songs are kind of boring to me. I prefer country singers like Carrie Underwood and Shania Twain better.
