ITT we estimate how long it will be until I have a nervous breakdown.

I'm thinking I'll start to try to find serious work in September, and will be denied because I have no college credentials. The game will have about 100 players, maybe 10 subscribers. I'll see a bug report that I can't fix and I'll just collapse.

Take a break. I know you don't want to, but seriously. Do it.

But when that call never comes, it's time to face what you've become - there's no point doing all of this, unless you know you're having fun.

When something you enjoy becomes work it's time for a break.
But, not just a break, time doing something you can really enjoy and that will keep your mind busy.

By the way, don't worry about the future if there is nothing you can do to change it.
Do you think you can do something to improve your odds?
Anyway, I wish you the best.

There's always more you can do to improve your future outlook, but is the effort involved worth the future rewards? That is left to the fellow making the calls in his/her own life. Make the calls! Call the shots! Take a break if you want, and don't if not!

If everything's right, what's left?

I have decided to work a more steady pace with MonBre because I think I am rushing things a bit. I don't know when I can have the "advertising burst" but I can tell you right now I'm in no financial position to be "spending money to make money". The next things on my list are paypal and minimaps/roads, and then I'll likely work on the class system Demi made, and put in the quests I'll be writing today.

I don't want to scare anyone, but check out monbre.com/MURDER

I'm not going to make a big announcement on it, because it's not that big of a deal in terms of MonBre. I enjoy making MURDER for now and it will take up some of my 'game time', but hopefully not my monbre time.

And finally, I think I'll be getting car/insurance sooner than I estimated and hopefully get some steady work going.

Ironic how I made the nervous breakdown thread before all of this even happened. I'm not in too good a shape honestly. ;O;

I know what that's like, and it sucks, but taking it slow and working on things you enjoy is probably going to be better overall. Realistically, MonBre has no due date, so you don't need to be in constant crunch time <3
