I decided to create the Boredom Index Rating today to rate the level of boredom required to motivate a person to create particular post. This rating is purely subjective based mainly on how irrelevant I think topic is and the amount of effort put into posting it. The scale is 0-10 (0 being least bored and 10 being most bored) and will be posted randomly depending on how bored I am at the time. Please feel free to add your own independent Boredom Index Ratings to any thread of your choice. Boredom Index Ratings may only be used by players that are not in closed BETA as entering into closed BETA instantly eliminates boredom.

If anyone would like to develop a more defined version of the Boredom Index Rating please feel free to do so. I am not presently bored enough or motivated to add definitions for Levels 0-10, but I am sure there are some enterprising folks out there that are. ;)

So, this thread is the definition for 10, I'm thinking.

Properly written it would be as follows:

Boredom Index Rating: 10.0 :P

Adding insightful comments to a thoughtful post would be a 9, though it goes up to a 10 if only one line is written.

Im so bored I've beaten (or played to death) 3 games since the announce of beta... I'M DIEING HERE lmao

Endless space .... check
Crusader kings 2 .... check
Mount and blade napoleon .... check

What shall I do next? I don't know.. maybe another pet to amuse me for a month or so.


When they finally release open beta, I seriously hope we don't have errors with the game being down 24/7 and being unable to test because of a massive flood of players. I hope they have the capacity for the amounts of people trying to get in. I'd cry right there and then if that's the case and I get in only to have my pc unable to handle the game or the servers overloaded.

Apparently you've never seen the cartoon...I refuse to use a dignified term like "animated series" to describe it...'cause it's definitely that bad.
