If YOU were stuck in a spaceship for 520 days...

The fuck are you gonna do? Solitaire? Play the alphabet game? Read?

HELL NO, SON!

You'd do what any self-respecting astronaut would do- play Counter-Strike! That's what the team of 6 men (3 Russians, and one each from China, France, and Italy) running a simulation of the trip to Mars did, as they spent 520 days stuck inside a fake spaceship to simulate the physical and psychological strain of being in an enclosed spaceship for that long.
Reuters wrote:The all-male crew of a mock spaceship played a video action game to cool down when tensions rose during a 17-month isolation study simulating a voyage to Mars.

In their cramped, windowless module at a Moscow research facility, the earthbound pioneers split into teams -- three Russians against two Europeans and one Chinese -- and put their trust in Counter-Strike, said Russian Alexander Smoleyevsky, 32.

"We know that flies can turn into elephants in space so whatever conflict arose, we tried to nip it in the bud," said Rustamovich Sukhrob, 37, his blue jumpsuit hanging loosely on his frame after months of food rations.

Skyrim's out soon, probably that. And re-enacting certain bits from the matrix.

I would be alternating between GMod and CS:S because when one gets boring, the other gets fun! XD
I hate idiots.
