    I will engage in an 11-minute meditation on the joy of the mission reward finally being an account unlock, so that I need not find some way to occupy myself for 22, 33, 44 minutes or other multiples of 11 while eating queso and chips.

    Best thing to do while AFKing in MI is, of course, to be in a chat channel saying how stupid it is that people AFK during MI. Hypocrisy can be fun! :D

    or

    watching cute cat videos on imgur

    Go in with a pre-made. Do your best to recreate portions of the Battle of Endor from Return of the Jedi. Afterwards, upload footage to the interwebs. Crossing the streams hilarity will ensue.

    Detail my car while listening to the one Justin Bieber song I like.
    I'll not win this contest but I really wanted to add in the extra weirdness which I felt was lacking so far.

    Feeding my cat is something I could do in eleven minutes! Or making a sandwich, or lighting candles, or drinking water, or karate chopping the TV, or shooting the breeze with the mailman, or falling asleep, or doing some calisthenics, or fantasizing about getting my starship piloting license, or setting my house on fire, or cleaning my kitchen, or doing the dishes, or cleaning my garbage, or choking on pesky particles, or daydreaming about what to do with my 11 minutes!

    11 minutes? i will leave sto on in the event and go play some swtor all while trying to avoid the temptation to stroke my cat with it trampling all over me looking for something special. At this point i'm likely to have dropped something i will forget about in a few seconds and accidentally tread on it in a few minutes. :tongue:

    11 minutes? After doing the admirality (more dilithium, less problems) I'll do something constructive like learning Japanese online, quick bursts of learning suits me better than plugging away at it for hours, or maybe continue learning html for fun or reume reading the stack of science journals I downloaded last month (US military scientists have discovered nannosculpted aluminum used as a catalyst can hydrolise water without application of electricity, meaning hydrogen for power generation could be released from water without the energy input needed to break the bonds of h20...)

    Basically the same stuff I do whilst waiting for a pve team mission to pop.

    Watch attentively at the ships as they park near the station, watch the chat of team members complaining about all the idle time, and thank the maker that I don’t have to do this event as often as in previous years.

    As all know 11 is the foolsnumber.

    So during these 11 minutes interval I go completely:

    cuckoo, crazy, insane, mad, nuts, nutty, silly, wacky. ape, beserk, lunatic, potty, psycho, screwball, bats in the belfry, barmy, batty, bonkers, crazed, daft, delirious, demented, deranged, dingy, dippy, erratic, flaky, flipped, mad as a hatter, mental, moonstruck and out to lunch.

    HINT: if everyone says "do admiralty" then "do admiralty" is not going to win.

    We are looking for the -best- idea for how to spend the 11 minutes not the most common idea.

    Hmm I misunderstood I thought the question was "What will YOU do with your eleven minutes". It doesn't say anything about the best way to get past those 11 minutes.

    In that case, the best way to pass 11 minutes is to love someone.

    Get on Amazon and shop for Fidget Spinners that I can use to occupy time when I have nothing to buy from Amazon.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    My favorite thing has usually been to come to these forums and participate in the great debate on the subject of skipping the optionals.

    That is not even a gif, that's an mp4 video disguised as a gif.

    Whilst I'll "obviously be doing the mission properly", ahem, that is enough time for me to measure out the coffee grounds for my drip machine, making a pot of steaming coffee, and for my oven to heat up and gently warm 2 croissants, which I can fill with sliced cheese and ham (not enough time for bacon, as I like mine crispy). I can then eat my breakfast and sip my coffee whilst sat back at my desk. Breakfast... the most important meal of the day.
    For my next toon, I'll go brush and floss my teeth to get rid of the croissant bits. Eternal vigilance is the price of healthy gums.
