      Yeah, I'm definately playing less than I would like, due to a new wife, but now that she has started classes and I am just hanging around, I have a bit more free time

          She's not very computer literate. I could have porn in the root directory and she would never find it. She may not even realize there's a CD in the drive. Besides, she believes PC games are a huge waste of time (**sounds of me scratching head wondering what we have in common** )

              I used to play huge marathon sessions of Civ2 and Smac, both SP and MP. But now I find that limiting yourself to 1-2 hours and going back at a later time generates fresher ideas about running an empire.

                Well I still like to load the esky with ice and beers, pop it next to the pc.... watch the footy, bike races or some great war movies ..... and crank up civ for a long run.... some of my moves later in the night are funny to revisit but it makes for a fun afternoon and evening

                also keeps the pizza shop happy

                  Almost always somewhere between 2 and 5 hours.. guess I should complain about lack of useful poll options.

                    Once I start I can't stop, anywhere from 2 to 20 hours. Despite pleas from my wife to do this or that. That's why I do not start a game as often as when I was a student.
