buttercupcruella · April 2010

1)Age?

23

2)Why would you choose to play the number of hours you picked?

Because I need to relax, get away from real life traffic, all the hurdles. Sometimes, because I am bored. Moreover, I play often because I have ingame friends that make the experience worthwile. Often there is nothing better to do:)

3)Have you sacrifice work or school to play the game?
-If no, would you?

Yep, I did, but only because I chose to, because I knew that the 'sacrifice' would not do anything bad to me; by playing the game instead of doing some work never got me into troubleb:victory

4)Have your health been affected?

HAS your health been affected?! Not that I observed negative reactions, but I know, I go to sleep later, and sometimes forget to eat while playingb:chuckleGuess it must affect me somehow...

5)Have you try to quit playing?

Nope, I feel no need to.

6)How much money do you invest on cash shops?

Personally, none to this day, but that might change and I use in game coinz for those purposes

Hehehhe, damn, I got to know something about myself:)))

Good luck fellow gamersb:bye

EDIT: Forgot to write how many hours I spend... it depends on the amount of things I have to do, on my free time, onb the weather, my mood, etc. Lets say 4 hours per day, but there are days I do not play at all or days when I spend like 12 hours playing LOL

(hard to believe you guys don't sacrifise rl... really? think of what could you do instead of playing...)
