Usually skim through the posts, which are informative, entertaining and hilarious; don't always reply though, unless something really grabs me.

When waiting for my turn, I try to have a life outside chess, but it doesn't really work out well... Laughing

I look at my games and plan possible moves.  I also try to figure out what my opponents might be planning.  Chess is similar to football.  Defense is as important as offense.  I also look at the forums.  Sometimes I also enter questions in the chat box next to the chess board and find out information about my opponents and share information about myself.

I just go to another game, comment o a friends page, send an email, work on homework, listen to music, get up and walk around, and just do anything. xD I think you all get the idea now. I cannot help but be hyper and keep myself preoccupied with doing different things at once.

I go to other internet forums and web sites in search for new interesting stuff there.

(Yeah, I know that's heresy).

Start doing what I should be doing other than playing chess... studying.  I use chess as a reward system, "I've studied for 5 min I can play a few games" Laughing chess + last semester in college + general education classes = NO MOTIVATION!!!

Read books, solve endgame studies, solve tactics (in tactic trainer or a book), chess mantor, analyze my games, play and analyze live chess, chill here at the forums, read articles, read blogs, watch vids. Probably forgot something.

I switch off until it's my turn to move. (If all of those games got cancelled somehow, I might never wake up again.)
