How long did you go through WITHOUT Smw hacking?

Me? Probably over a year now and I've been going crazy. What about you guys?
-Antoine-





Going a week right now. My brain is drained of inspiration you see.
I had a five month-long hiatus, and I didn't hack at all throughout it, and a little while after that. From my posts, I predict the longest time I went without hacking was ten months.

I'm going through another hiatus at the moment, lasting around two months.


Other Submissions of mine!
I left SMW hacking 6 or 7 months ago, and i'm fine (well, if you don't count drawing graphics, because i still do).

Lack of inspiration, bad level design. I'm never going to hack again.
i just lurk sometimes
Pretty much until now; that is around a year. My skill at hacking sucked until recently, when I randomly began to have more inspiration and overall skill.
I'm on and off, so it's hard to say how long I go -without- it. I don't think there has been a period where I have decided to quit fully (since, like most people who try, they're usually drawn back further down the road).

Eh.
I only hack on weekends, so technically, I'm allways taking 5 day breaks. I think the largest time I've spent without hacking was one week.
I'm much of the same way as S.N.N. actually, as most often I just takes breaks from it. I don't quit it entirely, I only have relatively long periods of withdrawing from it. If I remember correctly, I think the longest period of withdrawal was maybe three months or so. Then again I have a feeling that's a little exaggerated.

I also go on and off on SMW hacking. When i don't feel like doing anything smw hacking related stuff i just take a break until i feel like hacking again. hmm, i think my longest break from smw hacking was 5 months or so due to me having to focus on real life.

I should have something witty to put here (even if it's just to update dated info), shouldn't I?

No definite amount of time, but there are times where I spend remarkably less time doing any hack work during the day. It all depends on my mood, honestly.

Longest break for me was probably 3 months due to my computer exploding.
Besides that, I've had to quit sometimes for 2 weeks or so to get inspiration.
woag.....

(previously superdragonyoshi1. sup yall.)
If you define hacking broadly, then I guess I still hack. I write music, and that's about it.

Truthfully, I haven't made a level in LM in quite awhile.
I've tried to open Lunar Magic a bit about a month or so ago, but every time I open it, I close it and then open Minecraft instead. I don't hack as much. Even if I do hack, I would only be able to once a week or so, because my windows computer at home is horribly laggy and the only fast computer at my house is my mac.
1 2/3 yr.

yeah



During all the time that I've actually spent on the site, I have been working on a SMW hack of some kind.

However if you mean lengths of time without actually working on a hack, then usually the longest breaks I take span about a month or two, usually after having released a demo, or flat out losing inspiration (or both).

I suppose you could say I hack SMW passively, whenever I feel like there isn't anything else I want to do or when I have an idea. On average I probably spend about a couple of hours a week working on levels and such, but on some days I spent entire mornings/nights on it.
May we meet again outside the battlefield.
Technically, I have gone about half a year (since ~October). But I did "kinda" restart in December (with the level design contest), but then i re-lost inspiration and went loldead and lolweeaboo.

I go on and off on SMW Hacking. I think the longest time that I'm gone was about 11 months due to laziness and for discovering games.
Its been about 5 months now. Gonna try to get back to it this week hopefully. Since its spring break right now and have more time I will probably have nothing else to do at one point except open Lunar Magic.
The only time I was really on a break (from hacking as well as SMWC) was from March-July last year. I was just too tired of hacking and other things had gotten more priority leaving less time for hacking and stuff. When I regained interest, I asked SNN if I could be on the staff team again but it wasn't until January that I started to work on a hack. Progress on it is going pretty slow and I only open LM a few times in a week.

I am pretty much like that too.
I generally only work on levels when something is going on (collab projects, SMWC contests, helping a friend with something).

The last level I worked on was my Winter Contest level, which wasn't finished due to me being too busy. I'm going to try to revive it for the next Chocolate Contest though, because I did spend a good amount of time on it and would hate to see it go to waste.
