EndreWhiteMane: Sorry, I've come to my senses. I was sitting here with my chin in my hands and waking myself up by starting to snore.
Nice new pot of coffee on, I should be OK. :-)

CarrionCrow: -laughs- Hang in there, Insomnia's almost over. And don't sleep at your desk, it'll kill your back.

Do you want to be a human pretzel? =)

Stilton: This forum should be sub-headed 'Folks That Matter.'

Thank you. That's made a game-obsessed Viking smile ;-)

CarrionCrow: You're very welcome. =) Found a card with a little bit left, so I put it to use.
It's OK, I made sure I was propped up this time. :-)
So, now you're down to 51 cents. Very efficient use of funds I would say. ;)

Hilariously enough, that's within ten cents or so of being on the nose.

Gotta love Insomnia sales. -laughs-

Summer should be interesting. Get a couple long-standing bills paid off in the meantime, and I'll have a lot more to work with then. ;)

A question - when a person has multiple objectives to complete, is it better to completely clear one at a time, or make steady gradual progress on all of them?

I wouldn't have spent nearly this much but I'm going to have to borrow a pile of money anyway to get rid of some of these surprise bills so I figured what the hell. Felt great to give a few gifts, so it was well worth it. ;)

I'd put them in order of importance and then go and watch TV...

No, important ones first, or easier ones first to give the feeling that you're getting somewhere.
It depends how important important is.

Fucking bills....they cut into game buying.
(And cause stress and grief and problems when they pop up out of nowhere.)

Hopefully the next entity that decides they want to do that to you shoves them right up their own ass instead.

Ixamyakxim: Hello. Do you like Mafia games? If so, and if you need a laugh at my expense, you can watch me get killed in one shortly ;) Just don't talk about it in here, we have a few players.
Hey I just now saw some of these replies for some reason, reckon the site's overloaded due to the sale.

Do you mean on twitch whilst playing MAFIA or a similar game, or in a forum game of mafia?

It depends how important important is.
I don't really watch much television, even with the new satellite provider and a trial offer on something like 50 movie channels.
As it stands, I already have a huge Netflix backlog to go with my GOG backlog.

Think I'll end up taking your advice and go from smaller to larger. A focused effort will make a bigger dent, and that's always a good thing. Thank you. =)

Additional - Interesting trivia. Did you know that the entirety of your wishlist could cost $510.68 to complete?

You're welcome. Creating the feeling that you're getting somewhere not only feels good but makes you more focused on getting the whole thing done. That's what I've found.

It's a forum game, here I think:

Sheesh. No wonder I wait for sales.... Seeing it all in one lump sum like that is a tad scary, but when you think about the months of pleasure these things give it doesn't seem so bad. Still, that's quite a sum.

There's a cheap game on Desura called Doom and Destiny, I think I may have to have it for chuckles sake. :-)

Yeah, a straight 50 percent off across the board drops it down to 255.34.

Mine's a hell of a lot worse. -laughs-

You're right, you do get months and months of enjoyment out of them.

A more favorable way of breaking it down would be - 32 games, 20 hours per game play time (low-ball estimate for some, high-ball for others), so that's 640.

Rounding up a bit, that puts your ratio of cost to enjoyment at 80 cents an hour. Not bad. =)

And that's not including the ones I replay, which won't drop the rate much, but will take it a tad further.
