Does 'average' here mean 'once I play then how long do I play' or dividing my total play time by number of days I have a beta key?

I probably play 1-2 hours a day and watch sc2/read sc2 related stuff for another 2-3 hours. Days with big tournaments like Saturday and Sunday I may watch 6 hours of SC2 content :x

I should be playing more, but I almost like watching high level games more.

I've only put about an hour every few days into the game during the first few months. The past few days I've been clocking about 12 hours everyday. I wanted to get 2000 points by today and I'm at 1900. I might be too tired to keep going though
I've played about 100 games in the past 3 days.
Wishing you well.

2-3 hours a day now but I actually didn't play at first. I didn't like SC2 when i first started playing because it was so stressful and I wasn't used to playing such a intensely multitasking oriented game (previously played WoW up to 2200 in arenas and lots of League of Legends) plus... I kind of sucked at it being stuck down in the silver range but now I managed to get up to 35th in my plat division and I am enjoying the game a lot more so depending on how much time I have in the evenings SC2 has really grown on me and generally gets all or most of it whether I am watching pro replays or doing ladder/custom matches.

well i went with the "if u play how much do u play a day" option, and not the "divide your total playtime with the number of days u have had beta-key". Its so sad i have my exams right now( why oh why did i get my key so late!!??:S

the reason i only play tops one hour a day is because I'm drowning in school work right now so I think its pretty amassing that I can find almost an hour a day to play sc2

Depends on the homework load. This week I have 2 AP tests and a massive spanish test. I was analyzing poetry for 15 hours (taking time off to eat and stare into the distance of course) on sunday for english class. Of course it wasn't even fucking due because she moved the due date ON THE FUCKING DAY IT WAS DUE.

Anyway, when summer starts that number will easily jump to at least 4 hours a day. Probably more.

I should play more but I generally only play an hour or two a day. It's not that I dislike sc2 I love it to death but between the tournaments,tl's streams and work I just don't get time and when I do get time to relax I end up watching the pro's play or catching up on the bw leagues. I'd play more if I had more friends playing I think.

I get nervous when I play SC2 and can't manage to play more than a couple games a day, if at all. Sometimes I can only bring myself to practice BOs against the computer. I dunno what's wrong with me, I don't really give a shit about my ladder ranking or anything... I had the same problem trying to play on iccup, though.
