I stuff my face with skittles until I'm sick, grab some water, and jump straight into documentation + source editing.

I have many things I may do before I code. Grab a snack. A soda perhaps. Take a nap. Put it off for a week or two. Perhaps even put it off for a month or so.

Before I start coding usually, I grab a Mountain Dew or 2. Turn on some music and I code whatever.

Kill a few babies in sacrifice to an occult power, drink the blood of virgins, orgies, ect...

If I'm try to code in assembler I take a massive shit beforehand so I don't have to get up for hours.

Interesting.  I just do it on the fly.  Even if its going to be a long 5-10 hour session, I don't really do any preparation at all.

The only precondition that I need is not being hungry. :3 I put on music only when I need to isolate my mind from the outside so I can focus on the code.

It's funny, I use my music as a break.  I start out with complete silence, then when I start getting distracted/tired, I turn on the music for around 30 minutes while coding.  I somehow feel better and code faster afterwards.

I can "just code," but if I want to go into a six-hour session I usually want to feel like crap so that I can be aggressive with it.

Sorry, I will no longer be scripting for RMXP. I may or may not give support for my scripts. I don't have the will to script in RGSS anymore.

I think he does that to make himself go deaf so he doesn't get distracted while coding.

I mysrlf prepare myself for coding by burning down some govermental buildings and slaughterhouses and afterwards just kill some nazis. This just gets me in the perfect mood for scripting a few thousand lines in ruby.

xD I was kidding Dio. I haven't listened to J-Pop since Aqua made me listen to Wonder Girls. I mean they were kinda
good but I def don't listen to them when scripting :P

I open up the programs, then watch an episode of deathnote (helps me get into the coding mindset, for some reason). THen I grab a box of crackers and a bag of pretzels, turn on some JPop (helps me concentrate on coding) and start coding away.
