okay, hands up

[synecdochic]

How many of us haven't yet managed to break the habit of reloading Alternity multiples times per day?

*hands up*

One here.

What made me post this: I was just WORKING ON THE FINAL RUN OF THE PDFS, as in, the thing I KNEW I WAS DOING BECAUSE THE GAME WAS OVER, and I flipped into the browser I kept Tosha logged into and refreshed his reading page.

[adeliej]

I guess for me it has some function -- I want to keep up to date on what's going on in alt-fen! And that's still updating :)

[synecdochic]

:) That will keep happening for a while at least, we still have a bunch of extra stuff to share! We're just spreading it out so we don't lose your attention quite yet. :)

[naomikritzer]

Sigh.

Some part of me is still hoping for new posts.

[synecdochic]

I knowwwwwwwwww, me too!

[longstrider]

I've tried, very hard, to limit myself to only obsessively reloading alt-fen.

[reenie]

7 years of habitual "checking the game...." Yeah. Hard habit to shake off.

[pegkerr]

I'm having the same trouble. And it's making me sad, every time.

[lucky_guess]

Me five.

I'm seriously debating taking an e-mail only internet hiatus to re-set my brain.

[elisem]

There's still content coming here, if that helps some.

Although... yeah. Methadone.

[stinaleigh]

I had to rearrange my bookmarks. The muscle memory was making things happen. I'm now playing too many phone games.

[jenett]

I have been almost managing, but only because I'm being very deliberate. (And contemplating moving the alternity bookmark into the folder of alternity stuff, which would help, but feels very much like a total end, y'know?)

[atheilen.livejournal.com]

Guilty. I'm trying to retrain myself to obsessively refresh alt-fen, but I don't know what I'll do when that's gone.

[elisem]

Same here.

[ivorygates]

Get out of my brain.

[sporky_rat]

This Rat here.

[gwendolyngrace]

Oh, yes.

And having to physically restrain myself from d/l the PDFs and starting from the top....

[keshwyn]

I closed the alt-player tab on my phone, and the week's been nuts enough that my main feeling has been, "Oh, phew, I don't have to try to squeeze in time reading around the sickness of children." Getting computer time has been Really Tricky.

I still have the alt-fen tab open, though. :)

[kiya]

Yeah, I had a tab open - if I close tabs I am sufficiently not-web-oriented that I just... forget them for weeks at a time, so I had a tab open for game, and I closed said tab.

[lapin_agile]

Ha. I didn't realise until I read your comment that I have game tabs open on my phone still.

Sigh.

[ursamajor]

YEP. I'd be curious to see stats on my phone of just what *percentage* my pageloads were alt-player.dreamwidth.org/read. I'd bet close to 50% if not more.

[batrachian]

Had to forcefully remove the bookmark. Still find myself reaching for the place where it used to be.

[(Anonymous)]

YES -- but because I am reading it all for the first time and it's basically all I've been doing the past several days. I even had the tab open last night while I was trying to do dishes, which...didn't work.

[ilyena_sylph]

*waves hands*

[gwendolyngrace]

It is also really weird for it to be Friday and I don't have to start putting together a recap....

[synecdochic]

Ha, I can imagine!

[lapin_agile]

Talk about reclaimed time!
