I'm Korean so I am heavily biased towards k-pop j-pop and the such for music choice.
If I'm not doing anything that requires my full attention, I'll load up some old anime or tv shows like star trek voyager, smallville, heroes, and sometimes deep space nine
I'm pretty hooked on "In Flames" right now.Quote:

Heard a song "the quiet place" around 1yr and a half ago and ever since I haven't looked back :) most other bands/music don't do anything for me nowadays :P
listen to music and be guilded helps allot, having people to chat to who don't auto come and go "wtf, bot, cheat" or the usual whine crap is refreshing, and the music just helps with the boredom and the slow leveling (im only 38 in 5 days played now :s usually i got a 70 by this time lol)
if it wasn't the music, i wouldnt had leveled to 70...
or grinded all the pvp gear
or farmed baron 250 times
in fact, i dunno if i could handle playing alone, when everybody else is offline, without mp3's :)
In short... not multibox. Anytime that anything I'm doing in a game becomes tedious or not fun, I stop doing it. This balances the fact that when I discover something that I like to do, I dive in and keep at it. Then if I feel that I'm close to overdoing it, I stop. It keeps me from finding myself in a position where I'm doing something and I don't even know why (ie, playing a game when the game is no longer fun for me to play).Quote:

Maybe that's why I am usually so optimistic about these games. Anytime I feel burnout I stop, then play again once it passes. And I avoid any grind that I don't really truly want to do. I just know that there will be people complaining about the achievement grind shortly after WotLK is released, because they drive themselves to complete it even though they don't really want to. Games like this never become negative for me because I don't torture myself for the game's sake.
So, in order to keep from going nuts while multiboxing, I stop multiboxing when I feel I am about to go nuts. :)
Trigger, Cloud Connected, My Sweet Shadow, Only the Weak, Jotun, Reroute to Remain, Our Infinite Struggle FTMFWWWWW!!!!!!!!!Quote:

I love In Flames.
I normally listen to On-line radio. I’ve been listing to EVE-Radio for about 2 years. A lot of good DJ’s left recently. So I’ve been looking for new to listen too. It pretty much is just pure suck now.
I find that if i'm questing it isn't too bad. Just straight out grinding sucks so when I grind I do instances. It's not that bad I guess. I really see the new EXP curve. I'm allready 30 on my alt team!
3 things that help me get through the grind, especially since I've been doing ALL collection quests in outlands so far.. (the 5x of the 4 sporebat eyes and 4 strider legs in Zang SUCKED)
1. Ballgame on TV.. if there's a baseball, football, basketball, etc game on, it's much easier to listen to the game as I play. I tend to not focus on how long it's going to take to get each drop I need.
2. Music.. I tend to just throw a massive song playlist on random, and see what comes up. Lately, it's been a crazy mix of 90's (Tool, Helmet, Pantera, Alice in Chains, Snoop Dogg, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Sneaker Pimps, Oasis, Green Day, Nine Inch Nails), 2000's (Disturbed, System of a Down), 80's (Megadeth, Metallica, Gary Numan, Motley Crue, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, The Cure, Tears For Fears, Loverboy), 70's (Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Aerosmith), and 60's (Rolling Stones, Beatles).
3. DVDs. I'll throw a movie in that I know well enough to not need to watch - just hearing it gives me the visualization of what's happening in the movie, so I can play the game and "watch" the movie in my head.
I unmapped the "enter" and "/" keys on my clones and instead made "\" allow me to start typeing. On my main "\" does nothing.
So when I want to do a command I do:
\/script LeaveParty()
When I want to chat I do:
/g hello guild!
This really really helps me talk only from my main and not accidentally get into talk mode on clones.
That statement SUCKS. That's how I feel about my favorite station in Orlando - 101.1.Quote:

In April, they booted my two favorite DJ's in the morning - a hilarious show called the Fiasco with Pat Lynch and Taco Bob (and Launa, but that useless slut did nothing but talk about how many of the Tampa Bay Lightning hockey team she slept with, thereby living up to her 'useless slut' moniker). I had listened to them the whole 6 years I've been living here, and the morning all-talk syndicated-out-of-Dallas redneck garbage called the Lex & Terry show that took the Fiasco's place sucks monkey balls. So now my morning drive to work is spent listening to classic rock on 96.5 with Dixon & Willoughby.. which is mainly decent music and boring as hell DJs.
A month ago, my afternoon drive became ruined when 101.1 disbanded the Buckethead Show with Buckethead, Ethan, and Lauren - all 3 fantastic and hilarious people who play good music. Now they've got Crash & LT, and although the taste in music is pretty much the same and they're cool people, I'm not laughing my ass off on the way home from work anymore.
The *only* redeeming thing 101.1 has done recently, is to pick up Mel Taylor from a rival rock station 4-5 months ago. She's cool and has a sexy voice, so that's a plus.
However, it's a travesty that 101.1 has kept the Shot Doctor on for sports news spots a couple times a day for about 10 minutes a piece. He's got not only one of the worst radio voices, but *the* worst radio delivery I've ever heard (It rivals Jim Rome's atrocious way of speaking 3 words at a time, turning every full sentence into 5 pauses between words). His predictions are equally as bad, terribly biased, and predictable.. "The New York Yankees will win the World Series this year." Yeah, you've said that how many years in a row now? I loved his comments with Billy Donovan possibly coaching the Magic last year - he predicted *every* single day the incorrect outcome for about 2 weeks. This guy is useless, and I can't believe he makes a living with sports reporting considering how bad he is at it.
There are a couple other guys now on 101.1 that make me want to dig my eardrums out with a spork. One sounds like the monotone comedian Steven Wright, only he's not funny at all. The other sounds like a nervous nerd talking to himself like he's about to ask the prom queen on a date.. tip to 101.1 management.. don't use people with bad voices, bad delivery, or bad self-confidence on the air. Hell, it makes me want to start up a new station with all the fantastic talent 101.1 has let go in the last 6 months.
