Perhaps actually be productive.
Probably try to get into giantitp multiple time while procrastinating and kick myself when it reminds my that it isn't there

That would also be the OP to whom you are talking. :smalltongue:

Probably catch up on my reading while kicking myself for not coding.

That's a thread necromancy picture. You made this thread today. That's not how that picture works.

Didn't you say something about not posting any more threads until some spider build of yours came into existence? Don't tell me they got it done so fast.

So... who casts Animate Thread (Or any variant) at a living one? Week or years to live, you can't rise anything that has not fallen.

Try to get into the forums multiple times. Whine about having nothing to do, despite vast amounts of work and writing to do.
Drink tea and play Eldritch horror by myself.
Despair and reread webcomics, then fall into deeper despair and finally do work, grow weary after an hour, and fall asleep.

Most likely become incredibly and spontaneously inspired to build for the JumkyarditP competition, only to jump online and realize GiantITP forums are down (Which is at least a solid 50% of my build and rules sources) and tell myself I'll build them the next day whenn forums are back, only to frustratingly fall back into my inspired yet time and motivation constrained regular state.

Ponder the meaning of my existence. Try to work up the courage to become a DM. Basically the same thing I do every day when I lift my face from my phone and realize how much of an outlet this site has become for my pent-up sarcasm and social insecurity.

... I need to get a life. :smalleek:

You've been sucked in, too? I watched all of the Hetalia series' out of a sense of duty to always finish what I start, but I found no happiness there.

I think I have another plan for what to do on that day.

I'm going to be going to a place of darkness, thusly I shall with great prejudice prepare and upon the calling time cast my Magic Missile spell.

I like it. It's funny to see the political relationships be translated into interpersonal relationships. It's also funny to see the embodiments of the countries.

Russia though... (Axis powers) he seems like a really nice guy and then he goes home and Lithuania and Latvia are scared to death of him...

Actually, no, that's the wrong day. Go to lunch with my parents.

Play League of Legends.

Also this, if I can pry myself from my work when I actually start.

Well then, I guess he took craft contingent spell. Actually, that gives me an idea. Could you put a contingent raise dead on someone so as soon as they die they turn into a zombie? That would be terrifying if every time you killed an enemy they turned into a zombie. :smalleek:

Anyway, I'll be out of town for a friend's engagement party, so I might not have even noticed. If I wasn't doing that, I'd be at my regularly scheduled game, and I still probably wouldn't have noticed. So, I guess the 22nd works pretty well for me.

I bet I'll read a lot more news than usual, and maybe be productive for once.

Also, feverishly checking giantitp to see if it came back on early.

Eh, I'll probably migrate over to another forum.

Except I'm too lazy to sign up for any...

I'll spend the whole time making D&D characters.


Points for whoever spends next week writing new threads to post one by one when the forum is back up.

Really, you visit on the days you actually play?

I'm the opposite. Typically I'm on here frequently except game days, where I go offline for the majority of the day.



I'd like to say I'd spend the forum downtime productively, but knowing me I will probably start playing WoW again, or get myself dragged into the DDN discussions on the WotC forums, or something else similarly unfulfilling until GitP comes back up.

Where's the info on how long this is supposed to go on, anyway? I assume the information has been given since the last News update.

Huddle in a corner and be bored for about 15 minutes. Then finish reading the Mabinogion.
Then huddle in a corner, bored until MonkMonday, when my mail gets delivered and I have to go to class.
And then so school work and go classes.

That about sums up my week.

It was in this post (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/announcement.php?f=24&a=70). He said it should come back up by Saturday the 29th.

Try really really hard to work on the D&D Future Campaign Setting, the Plane of Mirrors Adventure Arc, the Spell Storing Character, and the Dungeon Crawl MtG variant. None of which i will actually get more than rehashed notes done for them.

That and miss GitP. :smallfrown:
