my gaming habits

Hey Guys,

I didn't want anyone to think I was ignoring message or invites to games! 

I have received them (actually usually after I am done for the night or when I fire the XBone back up the next day - I don't seem to see any alerts when I get messages)

But I wanted to say, if you don't mind sending me invites, please do! Unfortunately when you see me online, it always will be rivals mode or building/tuning. I like to play this way and because my time is a bit odd with work support and family stuff, I frequently am online but paused or in the menus. I normally can't accept race requests unless I know for a fact I have at least 30 solid minutes of uninterrupted time. And that is the rub. It is rare I can say I will have a solid window of time.

It's nothing new for me. It's been this way for a long time and it stinks I can't get to race against folks more often.

I just wanted to explain to those that don't really "know" me why I don't accept invites most of the time. I would love to and do when I can, so please don't abandon me off your FL unless you must!

That's all. :)

cheers!

I'm right there with you.  I need to be able to pause and walk away at a moments notice most of the time I'm playing, so I usually can't join a MP lobby.  No offense to anyone meant if I don't join your party.  Hopefully soon I can set aside some dedicated time in the evenings.  My 2 year old can be pretty unpredictable around bedtime though.

Same deal here.  My kids can make it very difficult to race when they are awake, and sometimes, even when they are not awake.  sad

Sounds all too familiar.... though after 9pm PST usually everything has settle down and drivers can start their engines.
