Crack Addiction

[lapsedagnostic]

At this point, I'm completly unable to focus on work at all.

At least I got one very large and visible bug fixed at lunchtime, so it least it appears that I am working.

Bah.

Edit: Mym's Lunamage is now running around Northrend.

We sat in line at best buy at midnight wednesday night with both the boys, to be the 2nd-5th people in the door and get the 2nd-5th copies of the collectors edition

Online games are just. so. dangerous to my sleeping hours. It took me quite a while to shake the addiction.

Fortunately Fallout 3 came along. heh.

Because of the ability to actually Pause the game, as well as not having to worry about what's going on while you're trapped at work, there's no real comparison between online gaming and single player stuff.

On the other hand Crack is an incredibly rich non-linear game environment that lets you choose your own path, and I've got a great group of eFriends that I love to do stuff with.

Ehh, two years ago I was doing hard core raiding, and spent almost every friday night and sunday afternoon with 39 other people. Nowdays I play when I can, and don't obligate myself nearly as much.

But there's a reason we call it Crack around my house.

Of course

My flavor was/is called WWII Online by CRS. You know how much I like gunpowder age military stuff. This game was really interfering with reality. Everything that moved (tanks, infantry, guns, ships, planes) in the environment was another player (no bots), and the playing field was [i]Northern Europe[/i]. It is still the largest online environment in the world by a few factors of scale.

It calls to me, still.

Except for the death knight starting quests... :P

(Also, RP server? I would have reported that too. /slap)
