theory about gaming and smoking pot

let me jump straight to the point. the average non smoker spends less time than the average smoker in gaming. yes no?

when I used to smoke I used to play daily, and my tolerances of games was broader... but since I don't smoke anymore, I rarely fire up even the most entertaining games.

has anyone else noticed this?

I think smoking definately creates a more relaxed and immerced atmosphere in which one can enjoy a video game, hence making the experiance more enjoyable

I can't play when stoned, after about 5 minutes I go wall eyed and can't focus on the game.

the key is to control the dosage so that you don't get stoned, but simply get high.

I chain smoke pot when I game. It's atrocious how much I'll burn through playing civ3 for 5 hours straight.

Or Q3 for a couple.

Hmm, one might say that it creates a more relaxed enviroment for you to dwell in when stoned.


Others might say that without pot diming your brain activity you crave a more sustaining activity and no longer find sitting around in front of a TV/PC as tolerable.



Ill say this for myself. The most relaxed and at peace i have ever been is on a beach after a nice session with a few chics in bikini's walking by and im not stoned.


Incidentaly, i no longer smoke pot and play or not play just as much as i did before, WoW had me all night every night, the last time that happened was with EQ and i was defiently stoned.


Take all that for what you will i guess.
