It's About…Time

Who would have thought all that time spent making gold would mean I would never have to pay real money to play World of Warcraft again.

At the current price I have enough gold to buy 10 years worth of WoW Tokens (or 5 years of time running 2 accounts simultaneously).

Do you want to know what the removal of a real money monthly fee has made me realize? That if I'm not playing WoW it isn't because I don't have the money and it certainly isn't because I don't like the game.

The most likely reason I won't pay 22K to get a subscription is simply that the time I have to devote to things like playing a game sitting at my computer is virtually non-existent.

That's not a bad thing. While World of Warcraft is a wonderful hobby and past time. One I love very much I just don't have the time to play it.

I remember back when Erogroth was coming on the podcast and I would be working with him to find a time to record. I remember him being in the exact same place as me (one new child with another close on its heals) and me thinking that *surely* he could find 2 hours out of his week to record.

Surely indeed. I apologize to Ero for not understanding. I understand. I'm understanding more each day.

That's not to say that circumstances won't provide a way for me to play. Now that I can buy game time for gold it will be even easier to just fire up a sub for 30 days when I may have time.

To all you parent out there who have been in the young children + WoW boat how did you make the transition? What tips, tricks, and advice do you have the those of us who daydream about playing but also know that 99.9% of their time is devoted to their little ones (as it should be)?
