Your stomach rumbles and it sounded like the robots in Sir, You Are Being Hunted.

I think it is possible to break the wargame barrier. You're there for days in some basement somewhere and you finally sort of
win WitPAE sort of...and you never want to play Total War Third age or WitpAE again. In fact you are suddenly interested in some
very old boardgames.
Yes, it happened to me and I lived to tell the tale. Now I game in a loft and most of the games are in the barn.
...you hear two loud popping noises in the background, but carry on diligently in your preparations to pre-empt the Zulus in Civilization. Only a short while later to begin to smell something burning, and frown in confusion as you start for the kitchen. And upon entering you are amazed to find pieces of boiled egg splattered all over the place. And realizing you did not know at all when you had put the eggs on, but still very curious as to how long it took to boil down and explode like that...
...you have a beautiful woman dressed in stockings, garter and high heels telling you its time to get busy and you reply, "Baby, not now...I can't be tenderized while fighting a battle."
True story.
The sun is coming up as you leave your game of Civilization to get ready for work...for the third morning in a row!!
I did that once. Was I tired! *sigh*
...When you dream about a game you've been playing -- every night for a week straight (or more)...
Yes, I've really done that. ???

Only once?! Hell, that used to be my MO back in the day. ::)

Missing one night's sleep I did all the time. But I only missed THREE nights' sleep once. If you consistently missed three nights' sleep, my hat's off to you.
You stick to the seat.
^nah....that's reading for too long sitting on the....throne.

Ha! Been there, done that
...the first thing you do when you move into a new place is set up your gaming space, wherever it may be.
...don't need the PC on in order to visual your next moves and the A.I.'s responses.
When the power's off you set in front of your computer anyway.

This reminds me of the excellent G4 X-Play skit on WOW, the "online game and birth control device". ;D
"Not now! My night elf is mining!!!"
Buahaha!! ROFL!
you leave your apartment after a marathon session of x-com and count movement points to the elevator.
lmao - these are all brilliant, done the sun up on Civ and Football Manager trying to finish a season, stayed up til 5am recently to play Arma III on an east coast server
there is nothing more fearsome than the glare of a woman who asked to be serviced and youve refused because youre in game...................... and then still be sat there the following morning when she leaves to go to work - a lot of flowers and back rubs were required but at least i beat the Carthaginians to space!
When Homeworld first came out I got home at 7pm on a Friday and didn't stop until 60 hours later. She was beyond pissed.
ah the torrid tales of oppressed battle brothers
How about if a beautiful lady asks you to get busy and you ask her if she minds, while your busy, if you scan the horizon for other targets of opportunity? And then tell her she has +2 Breasts of Magnificence. ;D
I won't say I've *never* forgone sex to play a video game, but it is quite rare for me. Also, I always made up for it later. ;D

My apologies; I somehow managed to miss that salient detail. (Note to self: Read posts more thoroughly!) :-[
Nope, you've got me beat there,
Greybriar. For better or worse. :P

Apologies accepted, of course. I have misread posts myself. Thanks for acknowledging your mistake.
