The Traditional "What do you do during maintenance" thread

Haven't seen one of these in a while so thought i would add something that isn't a complaint thread that maybe we could have some fun with, so.

When the shard is down for maintenance, what do you do to pass the time?


Personally. I end up in photoshop and after effects making graphics or in discord just talking about whatever comes up.

      I am reading the Forums, watching TV, and wondering what my cats are getting into since it is too dang quiet in here, right now.

      Though, I should be writing e-mails or something more useful.

      In addition to sitting on the toilet and posting to the forum I’m applying to jobs and cleaning my house.

      I don't do much STO that time during a day generally but lately I'm back to playing some LOTRO.

      Scratch my previous activities. I'm catching up on episodes of The Orville.

      Well, considering the fact it's usually my bedtime around that time, more oft than not sleeping. Or hanging out talking with some friends on Second Life, or watching the odd youtube video.
      Resident TOS, G.I. Joe, Transformers and hair metal fangirl.

      And knowing is half the battle!

      This friday maintenance was a surprise to me, so I'm reading the forums, hoping for them finishing early.

      Writing. What I usually do with most other spare minutes of time. This is November, so NaNoWriMo is on, so I'm doing even more writing than usual. (Must get back to work. I have a couple of wizards snarking at each other, they need more snark.)

      I'm usually at work during regular maintenance. Which is where I'm at right now.

      ...but technically I'm not actually doing any work atm. I'm waiting on some surveying information from one of my co-workers. So just killing time reading the forums and watching youtube game/review videos (today it's Gran Turismo stuff.)

      Free money, can't complain I guess.. Got it pretty good here.

      Usually doing something, today i've been savagely beating other humans to a pulp with a flint weapon in FC Primal, watching some TOS and the orville.
      T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW.
      Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.

      I did some chicken stir-fry for lunch. Then cleaned the kitchen and emptied the dishwasher. I know, y'all wish you were me! ;)

      Planetside2, fighting the good fight to bring enlightenment to dissident NC & misguided TR. Also occasionally suppressing the liberation & enforcing justice as part of TR.

      Lately toying a bit more with Overwatch, but when that gets frustrating due to Blizzard, which happens in short order, it's back to Auraxis.

      I also no longer play much of STO, so bring on all the fixes of extra downtimes.

      Stare at the screen and go; KHANNNNN you be finished with maintenance yet?

      It's either that or I rant about the amount of maintenance; the line must be drawn here...no further.

      I may have been watching too many Star Trek movies of late...

      :D

      Play other games.

      Yup. FF XIV, Revelations Online, Skyforge, Scarlet Blade, and/or watch anime. Basically what I do when I'm done with my end game STO doffing/adm alt farm.
