    ...when you wonder if the new Civ of the Week is up yet, before realising that its only Tuesday. (It changes each Friday)

    ...when you spend your time studying for the CivTrivia questions, even though you have an exam at uni tomorrow
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

      ...You give in to the peer pressure and declare you will never buy Civ3 unless everyone at apolyton and every review you can find raves about it.

      ...and then only if it's cheap.

      I was just about to point out that Horsie is simply making excuses in advance for why he will suck at Civ III...

        - you start to imagine that you played civ3 already and write a complete negative review over it

            oh well, it just doesn't feel good.
            I left the battle at it's highpoint ! Few days before the launch of civ3.com and all the other big info !

            Everything happened and I was in the center of Africa in the jungle ! It's just not fair !

            Yin's pessimism has been broken, and I didn't even witness it !
            *sigh*

            - you start to post posts like the one I post right now

              I have to resist the urge to reinstall it every two or three weeks. But recalling CtP2´s city growth formula (or better, the lack thereof) reliably helps.

                ... when you wake up in the night and go to Apolyton to find if there is some new info...

                ... when you circle the releadse date on the calendar and count the days until it is out... ( 41 day until US release, and 30 more for UK)

                  ... when you work overtime just to look on Apolyton and reply on threads like this.

                  ... cannot resist to respond to stupid polls.

                  ... regrets when there are so few polls nowadays

                  ... already bought a Pentium 4 1,6 Ghz for civ3, just to find out that it is already no longer the fastest available.

                  ... when you're in doubt whether you'll buy that 2,0 Ghz one.

                  ... when you regret yin's decision to go in exile.

                  ... when you cannot find anymore stuff to tell about civ3.

                    No thanks. Games that crash every half hour are not my taste.

                      LOL...that's already happened to me. The fact that it was in 320x200 should probably have tipped me off that something was wrong...

                        -you start playing Civ2 again...

                        ...and you're p!ssed off that you can't stick a colony on that gold mountain in the middle of the desert...

                        -you buy a new computer for Civ3...

                        -you try to plan your vacation around the release date...

                        -you develop strategies for a game you've never played...



                        Its nothing less than pathetic when you think about it.

                          Damn, and I had to spend 3 hours messing with the game files to get it even to freeze! I haven't ever managed to get a crash

                          ...when 50% of topics in this forum aren't directly related to Civ3 anymore, because everything that was has been discussed 18 times before.

                                The game freezes on me before I start 80% of the time.... How in the name of (insert deity here) did you manage that?

                                On a side note, I only got to 3820 BC in my last game. 32 civs is just too much for my little 64 megs of RAM.
