What do YOU do while "playing" 9 rings?
Arato
As everyone knows, you don't exactly do a lot of activity while standing in a ring to work on your lucky title, since you gotta leave the game on and just go afk or do something else while your character is standing in the ring.. I'm curious as to what people are doing?

Thankfully Ive maxed those titles & dont have to do that any more. Back then I would work my other accounts through the diff campaigns. My other accounts dont need lucky/unlucky titles, they can just give stuff to my main to be salvaged or w/e

On the occasion i actually do play them normally and sometimes enjoy winning or losing my tickets. Other times i spend it just chatting to the alliance and coming up with games etc to play.
I have been browsing wiki recently and reading up on information or alternatively not actually being near my computer. I might read a book, watch a film, or because i spend half my life on games..play a different console. 1.6 million tickets won....and still a long way to go

Sleeping. Or watching something on Netflix.

Just leave it on for the event, and take a break from the game.

I'm usually doing anything other than staring at my computer screen. Eating, sleeping, housework, watching movies, etc.

If I ever bothered to afk 9-rings, I would probably play Snood or some form of Solitaire, or surf the interwebs.

Back when drunkard was minutes instead of mouse-mashing I would go through stacks of alcohol and chat on TS. Otherwise, I would read through emails, check the wiki, and surf. During the day there was time to either shovel snow in the winter, or during the Dragon Festival, mow the lawn, etc. I was there off and on but there isn't a lot you could do besides watch the tickets vanish and appear.
Most of all, the 9-rings was a break from the grind.

I only bother with Nine Rings if I have work, and just leave it up while I'm gone.

I make fun of the other people on the rings with me. Like, their armor and face and stuff. Other than that, I usually just talk to my guild or mess around on the internet.

Well today I left it running whilst cleaning my barbeque. But otherwise I just watch Netflix streaming and go here, on guru.

Wow, I don't know how you guys can do all that multi tasking. It really takes my concentration away from nine rings when I have to do something else. I can't win if I'm not giving nine rings my full concentration to pick the correct ring.
cosyfiep
like others have said, back in the old drunkard days--I would drink...and come back every 5 minutes or so to drink some more...got a good portion of that title done that way...but since that has changed (and I have the title already).....I usually minimize and surf the web---like now (and moderate 
)
Essence Snow
Fishing during the day...and ofc sleeping at night
Enchanted Krystal
This weekend while playing 9 rings, I caught up on the first 2 epps of True Blood(/excited), then went fishing. 
Caught 2 x nice mud crabs, well worth the effort.

But I actually do this. Not every minute through the whole event, but I do try to check in and make sure I'm on a relatively stable corner to minimize my losses.
Other than that, this event I did the festival quests on my alt account (and took breaks from rings to do them on some of my mains) -- all so I could stockpile tokens for cupcakes I can't get -- played UO, and caught up on some shows on Hulu. This weekend, I also added taking care of a sick family member and coming down with a mild case of it myself. Whee!

Having multiple accounts make 9 rings afk worth it, during the Birthday event i just had my main on 9 rings for literally the entire ~8days and i had my alt farming cupcakes and unid golds, i pretty much made more money then i lost it was well worth it.
Quickfinger
I just go about my day, checking in every once in a while to make sure I'm still logged in.
In years past, I spent many hours during the festivals just chatting with folks ingame, but most of them are never on anymore.

I used to stick around chat with friends that were also hanging out on the rings. Now I minimize it and do other stuff. It's just not as fun as it used to be since everyone stopped playing.

I worked out my rate of ticket consumption per hour. Set a timer, then went off and did something else. I only needed rank 2 for the HoM title, so it was'nt too bad.

Most of the time I'll be asleep, at work etc.
Before the Drunkard title change I would use the time when I was around to burn through some alcohol, but I don't even need to do that anymore, so now if I'm home it's just whatever around the house, or maybe playing another game or something.

I dont 9 rings anymore, but when I did, I would just do stuff that I enjoy doing in real life anyway like talking with friends, playing basketball, working out, etc. I would pop on from time to time to make sure that I hadn't 007ed.

I rocked some Mario Kart Wii online this weekend what time I wasn't hanging out with family and friends.
Rocky Raccoon
I would load up on tickets and then go play RIFT.

I'll usually set it up and leave it go while at work (since not everyone gets to have weekends off). Also while sleeping and getting household/family stuff done.
