Or worse, she comes into your room while you are issuing orders and tells you that your tactics will fail and your worlds will be conqured. Then she borrows your PC and plays her turn, in the same game, and is the enemy you have been fighting for weeks.

maybe we should start a '200 ways to tell your addicted to the SEIV forum.' topic. you could use me as the definition.

I really should update this list again.

Se IV is like crack cocain. It is and addictive product that sucks up your free time and life like a black hole.

But its not as expensive, and the cops won't come bashing down the door until you've been missing for a few days in a row and the neighbours think you're dead.
