Where do you find the time.

First off, I'm most definitely not getting on anyones case for playing to much, not having a life, etc. I am generally curious on how so many of you here on the forums (and others on CoC of course) manage to play this game so bloody much!

I know I play more than average clashers as I typically have around 200 wins per season (so factor in 15 or so losses as well) as most others in my clan are social clashers and usually chalk up between 25-75 wins. I'm currently on vacation with terrible weather and a small medical problem so I'm getting a few more clashes (and decided to join the forums) as well.

Since being on the forums I've been able to see all these stats and figures from all these top level farmers, players, etc and it boggles my mind. I've been playing seriously for around 10 months now and have just over 500 mil elixer, just under 500 mil gold and 1.4 mil de. I know I play too much as it is and yet there are hundreds of players just here on the forums who I've seen steamroll over those figures handily.

I'm self employed at home and work from my art studio so am able to make time to clash between my 25-80 minute build times. I also sometimes have the bad habit of clashing while reading, cooking or other daily routines so my battle amount adds up quick. Combine that with the fact that I think I play this game very well for a "gathering loot" type of way and have done well in ten months of play.

So. How in the world do you folks find the time to both play the game so much, and spend so much time here on the forums?! Please keep it civil without any of the trolling I know this post could create.

I'm self sufficient (not sure if tat's the correct word)

I kinda have a routine in my life. This is a typical weekday:
6:30: Wake up, eat breakfast, brush my teeth, raid and pop on forums
7:25: Leave home to go to school
2:45: Get home, logs on to clash/forums and raid/chat for about 15 minutes
3:00: Do homework, typically about an hour or so
4:00: Practice snare drum rudiments and parts for school band (about 45 minutes to an hour)
5:00-9:30: Chores, clashing, forums, dinner, TV, sleep. (bolded if playing clash of clans while doing so)

In conclusion, I clash if I'm not doing anything else important.

Most of my gaming is done while watching tv. The ever lowering quality of tv programms is helping me in this also sports is a good option to watch&play.

Also, this comes from CinemaSins, but I think it's slightly appropriate for the topic... Found it funny when I watched it.

Well, most of the people that attack me are th 7's with lvl 5 walls and they are always online. So many snipers these days now it's just weird to see so many

TV (more accurately Netflix) + Clash is a great combo. My roommate has actually brought his phone to the gym just to keep playing. I draw the line at that one.

I can't watch movies or shows and clash as I like to focus on one or the other... but yes, it seems as though a fair few people clash while they are watching the TV. Two screens on the go at once. What has become of us?

lol. I usually have my TV on when playing, but usually I'm just listening to the TV while playing clash.

I usually play 2-3 hours a day(at school too:-P)
But playing GTA 5 while clashing is the best

Finding the time? Multi-tasking. Just multi-task.
