So I was playing S4 League today and my mom walked by my room and was watching me. I had my ipod in so I couldn't hear her creeping on me but she finally said "Jeez, blink already Brad". Scared the **** outta me but then I realized something, I don't really blink when I'm really concentrating on the game, and trying to do well. Lost 2 contacts today too. Just randomly fell out ;__;
I also realized that I sit too still, which sux cause my body aches after a while (but days off are so lame :shoe:).
Outside of gaming though, for instance when I'm drawing something, I always tune out everything that's going on around me and blink more then usual. But I don't sit still as much, I tend to tap my feet to the music or whatever. Cause I always, always, have to blast music so I can completely concentrate on my work otherwise I hear "BRAAAAAAD" every 5 seconds.
So have any of you noticed what you do when your extremely concentrated?

Any sort of repetitive work, such as doing projects or drawing. Mostly drawing or when doing homework.
I enjoy drawing and writing, so I don't really care about not blinking during the time I am doing any of those. Things I dedicatedly do, I guess when I'm bored.
Homework, not so much, because nobody seems to lie homework. I just want to finish it so I can get on with whatever I want to do.
Or when I'm too into a game on a game console or whatever, I usually ignore the time and surroundings around me. D:

Drawing or when writing an essay/doing HW.
But whenever I play S4 I can't concentrate that much, thus my sucky aim, which is why I only really do sword matches xD.

I mostly play sword matches in S4 now, though another hacker pack just got released so its not fun with the godmode/1hko/range hits going around. Mostly in chaser though and ST2. :C Guns are somewhat fun though I enjoyed the assault rifle and turret while it lasted Dx

When I get extremely concentrated on something I have a tendency of sticking my tongue out of the corner of my mouth.

When i'm extremely concentrated i zoom in on one thing and start noticing everything about it, everything else becomes a huge ****ing annoyance. Unless it's minecraft, i just go OCD clearing out everything not noticing the 6 hours passed xD

Brad plays S4 League? I should easily [S]rape[/S] take you down.
When I play LoL and actually try, I get cranky when someone disturbs me, like my sister/mom calls for me. I don't reply, but if they approach me I'm like "Did you not see that I just got hiy by a huge ice arrow and now is dead lying on the ground?". I also bite my nails and silence everything around me except for my train of thought and my music.

Whenever I'm super concentrated on things like schoolwork, I'll tend to have like a bajillion tabs open on my browser. Be it math or an essay to write, I always do calculations online (Wolfram Alpha) or keep track of the many sources I use and when and how to incorporate them into what I want to say.
The best part though is when you get that inspiration to write and it just flows out smoothly. By the time you know it, it's already 11 pm and you've spent the whole day at the computer lab at school and all you wanna do is just stretch a little because your ass hurts from sitting too much. haha
But it feels so refreshing at the end to be done and to know that you've worked hard on something.

yeah back when I got a great idea for an essay ... I wouldn't stop writing for a good 30-40 mins then before I knew it I was either done or I ran out of room to write ~_~ lol

When I'm really concentrating I brush all concerns and things out of the way. Heck the itches and I feel during the day disappear when I'm in deep concentration. See my skype flashing? I ignore it until I finish with what I'm concentrating on and then move on to see what needs my attention.

Can't concentrate on anything at all. Might be a mental issue.

I stare and tune out everything else. When I'm drawing, I'll get into "the zone" and I'll be concentrating so hard it's almost like spacing out. Everything becomes mechanical.
