[QUOTE="seasong, post: 681836, member: 5137"] Here's the [URL=http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38786]IronDM tournament[/URL]. I'm currently in the finals, and will be devoting some time to IronDM this Saturday :). Which brings up "Thomas and sleep": If you add up all of my morning prep, eating, work, GM duties and other "have to do" stuff, I end up with about 79 hours of sleep a week (11 per night!). However, that's only 20 hours of GMing duties (about half of which are prep, and half of which are running the campaigns). I'm more of a full-time GM, and in addition to prep for each session, I'm constantly working on settings I'm not running at the time, detailing things about a current setting that isn't in play right now, reading nonfiction, and otherwise stimulating my world-building and GMing muscles. Plus time I spend on ENWorld, the ENWorld IronDM, and the Rat Bastard's Home for Orphans IronDM... And then there's me time, reading webcomics, light fiction, side writing, writing up the Theralis story hour (yes, that's ME time)... So I have a pretty full schedule, but [i]as long as work is light[/i], I can overlap GMing and work. This past week, work has not been light (and has, in fact, been rather heavy), so I've sacrificed some sleep, which I enjoy slightly less than roleplaying :D. Today is starting light, so hopefully I'll get a Theralis update done. [/QUOTE]
