Dark Age of Cramalot?

[Sigurd]

Just interested on how any student gamers are juggling uni with DAoC... did uni kill your DAoC addiction? (Or vice versa? ) I'm guessing uni encourages the more casual approach to DAoC at least...

 

[klavrynd]

i was doing fine (well "fine") in school , but then i started playing again and it ate all my spare time+ study time

 

[Fana]

I failed almost all courses last year

LOL, you get loads of free time at Uni, during my final year I only did 2 1/2 days a week, Summer hols started 2-3 weeks after easter, pitty it was over 5 years ago now.

Now juggling DAoC with a full time career that another story, wasn't so bad when i worked on a computer games magazine and the boss was a DAoC addic (ah those 2 hour day meetings about DAoC were fun) , but know i'm lucky if i find 30min a day to read the FH boards.

do a media based course and for your final year do a studdy of MMORPGs etc

 

[Naetha]

Yup, I've prbably f*cked up my degree by playing too much daoc

Although it probably doesn't help that I'm no good at geology

 

[Dekker]

Consider yourselves lucky, I gotta full time career plus studying two nights a week for an HNC

Mind you, I am getting away with doing all my assignments at work

 

[Cavex ElSaviour]

screwed over 2 years worth of "studiefinanciering" for daoc, and then i decided to actually finnish my college and quit daoc

 

[nocte]

failed my HND because of daoc :>

damn this addictive game :<

 

[Taen]

Exams starting on Monday ... Have gone cold turkey from the game but cant stop reading the forums. I am seriously considering doing my final year project on MMORPG's and their addictive nature (Im studying psychology).

I cant w8 for the summer holdiays when I get to play as much as I want.

 

[Vhist]

I almost failed one of my Maths exams because I grinded from 49.5 to 50, the night before, for my necro. Never again.

Starting Uni in either September or February...

I've already decided I'm not going to let myself play nearly as much whilst I'm there as I do now.

Planned to get 50 NS/Hero/BB by the time I leave so no need to do marathon 4Fins XP sessions and to have them all ToA'd so no need to stay for hours on raids.

I know I won't stop playing while I'm there though, I'm far too addicted so I decided this is the next best thing.

If I only need to RvR when I log in I'm hoping it'll take up less of my time.

Rar geology

Didn't have internet in my room for my first term, but since I got it...nowhere near as much work happening.

 

[Daedalus]

Oh well.. while other people blame ToA, hibs, mids, Mythic, GoA, RightNow, FH, idiots, roleplayers, casual players, powergamers for ruining the game and thus leaving DAoC (usually for only 3 months), I'm just kind of taking a vacation until I feel like playing again.

So, yeah, I tend to mess up 3 months of my study, stop playing (or at least play a lot less) for 2/3 months and fix the mess-up.

It kind of works.

And yeah, I kind of spent my studiefinanciering on DAoC (well.. that's not entirely true, I spend MOST of it on books).

 

[Rellik]

nice raid bubble i hope ill have time to join next week too

 

[Sissyfoo]

Kinda glad they didn't have teh web in Wales when I did my degree or I probably would have ... well, I would have gotten a 3rd! Ew!
