I'm just interested in, How many hours you play in a day? I play around 2hrs a day. Is this NORMAL?

At the moment it's 7-10 (I'm ill and house-bound). Usually I'd say around 4-5 (if I'm at home).

Oh, I don't know. 7-10, probably. Less on days when I go out, of course.

3 - 5 on a good day.

Spend or spend playing? All the time I spend on the computer (which I assume is the question) would average out to more than ten hours--all my stuff is on here. "Playing", maybe half an hour.

If you use your computer for games it doesn't necessarily have to mean that we do. I spend about 5-7 hours on computer (circling around the Internet, doing something with Game Maker, listening to music), but most of the days I play no games at all. In days when I do, it's N or TrackMania Nations Forever, and it's never more than half an hour.

3-5 hours.

Never enough, for me.
5-7. Changes to 3-5, depends of what I'm doing at the moment.
And gaming, not really, if you don't accept "playing" as highscoring.
Otherwise, 10-12?

Depends on the day. On my days off when I have absolutely nothing else to do, I can swing upwards of 12, but most days, it's closer to 2-3, due to work, school, and social lives.

i play around 2 hours a day, and am on it (wasting my time) for much more. 4 or so total. but during the summer i play maybe 6-10 hours a day, when i'm not writing or reading or doing something else.

1-2 hours, about 1/5 of which is used for gaming. The only video game I even play is N.

One to three hours a day. In my home I'm restricted to one hour. Other times it gets bigger to three. But one time, in 2007, I played up to six hours.

Too many. At least 5 or 6, and that's not counting school. (We have a laptop program, so we use computers in a lot of our classes.)

Games, though, only take up some of that time. Maybe an hour plus at most.

Around 5 or 6. I juggle my time between I-Am-Bored, Cracked, the forums, and random other things I find distracting enough to keep me from actually doing any work. Rarely do I play games, and when I do it's only Sim City 4.

Well, since I mingle this and homework, 2 hours on homework per 30 minutes on this.
SO, 2 hours and thirty minutes (my parents dont know about therealn yet... wait for my dad to check wpc!)

After reading this I'm quite amazed at how long some of you spend on the computer. Before I switched to broadband last year in May, I was stuck with this extremely cheap but slow 15-hours-a-month dial-up contract, which comes to 0.5 hours a day. When I got broadband, this increased to about 1 hour. Now, however, I have become a lot lazier, and I tend to use it for about 1 hour per day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Mondays, Fridays and Wednesdays; 3 hours per day on weekends; and an average of slightly over 2 hours per day during the holidays.

I get on from the time I get up, which is usually around 8 A.M. to 1 P.M., and I get off at between 3 A.M. and 6 A.M. So, that adds up to around... 14 - 22 hours. Or something like that. I just sat here for 5 minutes trying to figure it out, which is sad. I think I win the "Laziest Bastard Ever" award.

I don't spend any time on the computer. I'm afraid I'd break it if I tried that.

I do, however, spend about five hours a day using the computer, mostly late at night.

Too many













How long do I spend NOT on the computer?

3-5, but more when possible. School takes a lot of time out of my day.

Too many.
It's a lot less if you don't count the time I'm not supposed to be.

On a weekday, when I'm at university, I'll spend around three to five hours on the computer. However, when I'm at home for the day, I can easily spend over ten hours wasting time.

Well, I take online school, so that's about 3-4 hours a day on that. I'll also spend, on average, maybe an hour and a half on n, and then a lot more time on irc. I'd actually say about 10-15 hours on a non-music day, if you count school ._.

Usually it's between 2 and 5, when I've got my xbox 360 too. Recently, it's been getting fixed, so that's now between 4 and 10. I don't think I can really pin it on a single reliable value. Now, since it's back up and running, plus exams, I'd expect between 2 and 3 hours. I'd hope for that amount, anyways. I waste time way too easily -_-

Do you do the K-12 online school?
