I would say: worst escenario:\n90 minutes play+15 minutes normal interruption + 15 minutes beteween times+ 30 minutes overtime+15 minutes penalty, thats 165 minutes = 2 hours - 45 minutes.\nSO you could say 3 hours.

I think a lot of us need to cut down on computer time, but the internet is an amazing place that lets you go anywhere anytime. I probably spend about 2 hours a day.

Wow on average about 2-3 hours. I do research for my company so in the midst of it all i log in to Y!A. I don't really call it time wasting, but can be rather entertaining and educational. I learnt quite a bit here while reading people's questions and answers. And also here is where you get the latest news.

Computer and Video Game Addiction \n\nComputers, video games, and the Internet have become entrenched features of our daily lives. Computer use has reached beyond work and is now a major source of fun and entertainment for many people. For most people, computer use and video game play is integrated into their lives in a balanced healthy manner. For others, time spent on the computer or video game is out of balance, and has displaced work, school, friends, and even family. \n\nWhat is computer and video game addiction?\n\nWhen time spent on the computer, playing video games or cruising the Internet reaches a point that it harms a child's or adult's family and social relationships, or disrupts school or work life, that person may be caught in a cycle of addiction. Like other addictions, the computer or video game has replaced friends and family as the source of a person's emotional life. Increasingly, to feel good, the addicted person spends more time playing video games or searching the Internet. Time away from the computer or game causes moodiness or withdrawal. \n\nWhen a person spends up to ten hours a day or more rearranging or sending files, playing games, surfing the net, visiting chat rooms, instant messaging, and reading emails, that easily can reach up to seventy to eighty hours a week on-line with the computer. Major social, school or work disruptions will result.\n\nSymptoms of computer or video game addiction:\n\nFor children: \n\nMost of non-school hours are spent on the computer or playing video games. \nFalling asleep in school. \nNot keeping up with assignments. \nWorsening grades. \nLying about computer or video game use. \nChoosing to use the computer or play video games, rather than see friends. \nDropping out of other social groups (clubs or sports). \nIrritable when not playing a video game or on the computer. \nFor adults: \n\nComputer or video game use is characterized by intense feelings of pleasure and guilt. \nObsessing and pre-occupied about being on the computer, even when not connected. \nHours playing video games or on the computer increasing, seriously disrupting family, social or even work life. \nLying about computer or video game use. \nExperience feelings of withdrawal, anger, or depression when not on the computer or involved with their video game. \nMay incur large phone or credit bills for on-line services. \nCan't control computer or video game use. \nFantasy life on-line replaces emotional life with partner. \nThere are even physical symptoms that may point to addiction: \n\nCarpal tunnel syndrome. \nSleep disturbances \nBack, neck aches \nHeadaches \nDry eyes \nFailure to eat regularly or neglect personal hygiene \nFor the computer or video game addicted person, a fantasy world on-line or in a game has replaced his or her real world. The virtual reality of the computer or game is more inviting than the every day world of family, school or work. With the increased access to pornography on the Internet and in games, this fantasy world may be highly sexual. \n\nThe first step to healing is to recognize the symptoms. Help from a professional is often needed.
