I'd head back to the gym more often than I do now. Probably get back to writing and performing more often.

Christ, just realized I haven't been to a slam in almost a year.

Maybe it's time to put the brush down for a bit...

No wargames these days, more DM/Painting.

I paint things occasionally. Some things you may even like!

If War Gaming just dissapeared, I'd simply invest more time in my other hobbies. Prior to my most recent two years or so of intense involvement I'd been an on-and-off dabbler for nearly 15 years.

The biggest reason I'm very involved in wargaming right now is that I'm not in a band anymore and I have a group of really good people I game with. Without that group, (if it fell apart or I moved away) wargaming could fade back into dabbling, and that would be ok.

As stated before me I'm sure i'd find something else to spend money on, or if I wanted to be responsible (bleh), I may make extra payments on bills and what not ... hmmm.

If wargaming disappeared, so would my want list of Transformers.

All that money has to go somewhere, right?

This is basically my life outside of school and what few friends I have so I'd be pretty bad off for a little bit before finding something else creative to do. Now if it vanished entirely without a trace or copyright, well I've got a couple of stories to take to get edited then its off to see a publisher...

If wargaming was no longer available for a hobby, I'd probably end up playing video games.

Hmmmm.... hmmmm....

I'd say I would have to scramble to get my stuff off Ebay before it all dries up. Then new models would become high-priced collectibles. So that would be bad. I'd have to go back to aquariums.

I'd be seriously pissed! Wargaming is my favourite hobby!

I guess I'd play waay too much video games if it just went away.....

LOOK!! a shameless self-promotion! (gasp!)

I'd just place more emphasis on my other geeky hobbies of running my Pathfinder game and PC gaming.
I already devote enough time to my physical pursuits.
