This is a question Procrastination

Outlook is a wonderful tool, but not when it keeps reminding you that it is now 96 weeks since you were supposed to finish a report you haven't even started yet.

Just how lazy are you? How long will you put off the essential or the inevitable? What do you fill the time with?

(We're too lazy to write something funny here. You do it.)

What do you fill the time with? Freecell & Minesweeper
In the two months I've been at Uni I've left all my work to the last minute, choosing instead to spend my time playing the games that come along with Windows (and neglecting TF2 a bit).

Freecell
Games Played: 780 (was 779 when I started writing this post)
Games Won: 766 (was 765)

Win Percentage 98%

Apparently, when it works out the win percentage, it rounds downwards, so I've worked out that I'll need to get to 1400 games to go up to 99% (assuming I win them all).

It's really annoying me that I'll never get the win percentage to 100%, but I feel I've gone too far to just reset the scores.

I'm dreading coming across #11982.


Minesweeper (Advanced)
Best Time: 133s
Games Played: 744
Games Won: 105

Win Percentage: 14%

As far as I'm concerned, I'm doing everything right most of the time, it's just my luck and mis-clicks that are letting me down here.

What really annoyed me was the time I was left with a 50:50 split at the end on a game that would've shaved about 10 seconds off my best time (and failed). I always used to think that Minesweeper was a game of logic, but there's a hell of a lot of luck involved (partly why I prefer Freecell).

I agree
I've been at uni for the past 7 weeks, and have not had such a productive 3 days since the past 71.5 hours my WoW account has been suspended.
Only half an hour left....
