There are times when our programmers do have free time (which I don't see why there would be, unless they can do their work in less than 6 weeks). During this "Free time", they play some games until they're needed. Our programmers are for the most part responsible, and in the end get their work done. One of the major problems here is while they're responsible and do their work, the games distract everyone else, making the team unproductive.

So while your programmers somehow have hourrrrrs of free time, I can tell you from experience that sometimes it's best to cut the games for the team's sake, and for the sake of productivity. Anyways, they're programmers for robot's sake! Tell them to go outside for once!

Bro tip: Tell them outside has really good graphics!
