now that i'm actively seeking my first RoLS, i'm wishing there were a little analog clock icon somewhere, (you could put it where the "flee" option is, even), that would turn in to a 3-minute countdown timer when pressed.
just kidding; that would just make 3 mins take even longer, somehow.

thanx. i just remembered, my laptop has a countdown timer gizmo in it somewhere. i found one of those chain-reaction type flash games, and i play a few levels of that, to kill the 3 mins. if i can figure out how to get that timer on to my taskbar, that'd be sweet.

Plus people are already running into lag issues. I'm sure a clock wouldn't help. I should look into taking off full screen. You can actually send and receive texts and stuff while the clock ticks?

If I'm at work and playing an area with a slower respawn rate, I usually just leave my phone on, but put it down, do some work, then get back after they've respawned.
If I'm at home, I do the same, except watch some TV or check a forum while I wait.
