Exactly, I've had to uninstall games lately so I could do relatively unimportant things like homework.

That's weird, I've had to uninstall homework lately just to do some real hard and healthy gaming.

Same here, I gave up all games but dominion 3 multiplayer so I could pass school. I was a real addict. the withdrawls are intense for the first two weeks.

Yea, the blank computer screen is sooo tempting. Maybe we can start a support group!

A man hesitantly stands up and takes a slow, deep breath. He looks around and then his gaze finally returns to the floor and says quietly, "My name is Bob,... and I'm a dominions addict."

"Hi Bob!", a chorus of voices reply.

"I started playing dominions just to relax after work. I thought it was OK and that I could handle it. Soon, I was needing dominions just to make it through the day; I couldn't get up in the morning unless I had a new turn file in my mailbox. And if I didn't get a turn file every few hours or so, I started getting real irritated."

Dominions is the ONLY game, and I buy and dl a LOT, that I'm still playing over a year later.

And here's what even makes it weirder...I dabbled with multiplayer a bit, but 99% of the time I single play.

If I were to have to explain it, I would have to say the patches and constant addition, plus the mods & maps (wish there were some more "pretty" maps though, like the map that will never be or whatever from the other thread).

Recently Bogarus just rocked my world. It's the game that keeps on giving. Well worth the $$, and I even bought one for a friend.

I'm playing a PBEM with that friend (you guys are just too good for me, playing MP on here is just an exercise in disaster) and having a blast.

That said, if the updates keep coming, and the modded graphics get better, Dwarf Fortress is likely to last a LONG time as well.

You only learn MP by playing MP, Stryke. Jump into the fire.
