Summer was too busy to have any down-time and enjoy it, and now that it's so close to Skyrim I don't want to get back into it - that way I'm starting with a clean slate

I'm actually doing the opposite. I'm running through my planned first character in Oblivion, just to confirm and flesh out how I'm going to play them.

This is actually the answer i was going to write,not word for word,but close.

Playing Fallout:3:New Vegas and Oblivion helps prepare me and passes the time.

Hookers and Booze!

Drink with my friends hoping to black out one day and wake up on Nov 11 even though Im not at my house

I'm playing some Baulder's Gate. That and I have an internet connection.

I love you.

Looking at the October screen shots makes it so much harder! I want that bow! link.

My niece's 2nd birthday happens one week before Skyrim is released.

Figuring out how to placate a lil' princess who is about to hit the "Terrible Two's" is a far greater challenge than facing some grumpy reptile in a video game.

In other words: I've got bigger issues to deal with, folks. I'm trying to figure out exactly which rock/punk/funk song I'll transcribe the melody for the fanciest mechanical music box I can ever afford her.

i have school then when i get home i do homework then play oblivion

I'm not getting skyrim on 11-11-11...so I got to wait even longer...WHY????? so I'm just going to wait for uesp to tell me everything about the game!

What a strange coincidence. My niece's 8th birthday is exactly one week after Skyrim's release.

Work, School and life in general takes up most of my time, so I don't really have much time to waste. But post Skyrim's release, I will become a recluse for a few days.

Someone broke my car...and I have to pay for it...and agreed I just cant even think of the forums on 11-11-10...

I'll probably have to wait until the end of November to play it... I gotta buy myself a new machine but I won't be able to afford it until then, I think...
I will die.

I'm planning a wedding. Some might say that I chose to time it just so that I could keep myself occupied until a bit after the release of Skyrim, but I will not confirm this. Nor will I comment on the rumours that I'm more excited about Skyrim. Also, on account of Skyrim being released like 2 weeks before my wedding/birthday, I'll have to wait until December to play it. I'm watching the trailer a lot. Overandover.

Also, I'm also in dire need of a brand new PC to play it. Luckily it seems that we'll be able to afford one.

Heh, they won't (probably) even sell the game where I live at the moment, so I'll have to wait for more than a month.

Can we swap? I'd give nearly anything to be busy. Unemployment is driving me crazy. I'd even accept less time to play video games for a job!

I've been passing the time by playing Oblivion. However, Oblivion hasn't taken my mind off Skyrim and the torturous month of waiting that lies ahead. It's actually had the opposite effect.

So I'm switching to NHL 12

I have college, work and fifa for now

School, Minecraft, Fallout: New Vegas, any other game that I find interests me, and the prospect of Borderlands 2 keeps me pretty aligned. But since the X-Box 360 went Red Ring o' Death, it's been kinda tough...

We should have some kind of countdown on the forums...

More or less 2332800 seconds left guys.

It feels as if Skyrim was only announced a few weeks ago. I've handled the wait very well. Two weeks now until Battlefield 3 so that will keep my occupied 'til 11/11/11. That and college life.
