Anyone got any hobbies outside of JA? I myself like to write (but you already knew that :p), draw occasionally, read books, do a lot of sim-racing (of the NASCAR variety. I'm working on getting a setup that includes all the belts and such for the seat, as well as the harnesses they use to keep their heads and such secure.), and, my favorite,

DEVOURING ALL PIZZA IN SIGHT :twisted:

I write books, read books, play games, drink pepsi, draw, dabble in weight lifting, play professional gaming, milisim gaming ( Usually I'm American in the war against France on battlefield 4 :p ), league gaming, designing, and want to get into becoming a historian. :>

And yes, Devouring all Pizza in sight is quite a thing for me too!

I play a lot of video games...

I read a lot of books, currently reading the Lord of The Rings for the 19th time (I'm on chapter 6). I also read a lot of plays like Shakespeare, Pirandello and Arthur Miller. Some of my all time favourite plays are Antony&Cleopatra and The Crucible. Occasionally I try to compose some music, Baroque in particular but Im better at arranging music, for example last week I arranged a 5 movement Medley of Lotr themes for a string quartet.
Its not a hobby but my passion, my dream goal in life is to become an actor, it is due to films like Star Wars that I want to become an actor. This is quite surprising since in reality I am quite a shy and reserved type of guy and I dont really like putting myself on the spotlight. What I am trying to say is that I know a lot of people in my school that joined drama to become popular, to have people acclaim them for their roles/work, whereas I joined drama just because I enjoy the process of portraying a human being alike or not so alike from me. To penetrate the characters being from the very foundations of his life........this sounds very sexual, not my intention. Anyhow, this July i am starting my acting course in London.

I'm do staff work for http://www.toribash.com.

Typically, I do site development and moderation work for it now adays. The game itself is just what the community uses to drag members into its circle. ;) Toribash has been a nice little side hobby since 2011.

I also like being fit. I maintain a steady 4 or 5 small meals a day and do scheduled workouts that work best for size. I guess thats a hobby.

I do problem sets. That's a hobby, right?

I have few hobbies outside of gaming. Although I do enjoy alternate forms of media, particularly videos and articles detailing the proggress of poltics in my country.

Watching shows and listening to music can also be added to the list, but as it stands, I don't "do" much of anything, as much as I watch others do stuff!

0_o Maybe it's best we don't know :lol:

With SimRacing, I basically go all out. I usually wear gloves while I'm doing a race, I'm working on making a Hudgeons Device (It keeps your shoulders/head/neck stable while one is racing, in case of a crash.), and I'm considering building a racing-simulation rig, with a simulated dash and such to accompany the PC's steering wheel itself. Basically something like this

I'm also considering getting some buckles for my computer chair, to give a little more added sense of realism.

Right now I'm getting more into fitness and losing weight, which has been an absolute adventure to say the least.

I also really enjoy Photoshop, and learning more about web design.
I play competitive Counter-Strike, and World of Warcraft on a fair occasion.

Outside of the computer, its working out, spending time with my dog, and working in for the law firm(s) as their IT Analyst :P.
