Post-planetarion syndrome

I'm checking the clock at work and getting slightly alarmed when it hits xx:55. This is a disease.

Oh and I'm pre-emptively denying the chance of someone making a funny about this not stopping me from crashing during the round.

Re: Post-planetarion syndrome

haha, i get that sometimes. I'm feeling like getting on home, and after a quick look at my watch I try to decide whether i should rush home to beat the tick or whether i'll miss it anyway so i can be more lax. I've been like that for years, even though i've not played PA since late last year.

Re: Post-planetarion syndrome

Nah guys, the worst is obsessively checking your planet several times during the tick even though nothing could possibly have changed. I do that far, far too much.

I do the same thing as Achilles all the time (constantly re-freshing gal stat like 40 times a tick), because its post-old skool-planetarion when incoming was updated instantly when they were launched.

Re: Post-planetarion syndrome

Its downtime - i'm still

1. Still waking up at 7am without an alarm clock, because thats what i have done for the last 6 weeks to give morning defence.
2. Not being able to sleep till 2am because i feel like i should be doing something.
3. Stopping myself from logging onto my phone wap to check for a jpg on saturday morning.
