"The gaming distractions helpdesk."

This is meant to be a tongue in cheek doctors surgery for people with gaming distractions.

If there is something that is taking away from gaming post it here and the panel of experts (amateurs) will help you come up with a solution.

Also any tips you can give other gamers on how to play games with the least distractions are welcome.

The first is take the phone off the hook.

Another few tips are:

Plenty of soft drinks to hand
Plenty of pizza or other SOLID food
Plenty of good games.

Soft drinks because when there is booze you get drunk and that dulls your senses and it gets difficult to play well.
Foods that are not solid like soup cause a big distraction when you throw controllers at the soup.
If you have bad games to hand then you lose valuable time looking for something else to play.

Yes, but it's a small price to pay for the amount of distraction it prevents.

Sounds painful.

Slit your eyelids so you can't blink. It works.
