So when I got Civ3 she started to play it. Now she spends more time on it than I do, every time I try and play she black mails me to get off the computer. The worse part is that she is still at Uni so she has more free time. Every day when I get home from Uni she is there playing away. Any ideas how to get her not to like the game anymore

Play civ together! You would be so cute, sitting together by the computer.

When I was getting woken up, but didn't want to, I explained to my mom that I needed to stay in bed until it produced another defender.

I was very tired.

When you're driving along thinking about the evening's strategy for getting rid of those darn Germans who parked right on your borders and you rear-end the car in front of you... then wonder why you turned the autosave off so you can't reload and avoid the accident.

Here are two REAL "you know you've played to much civ3" examples that happened to me yesterday:

WARNING!!! THis is a bit graphic and funny!

You know you've played too muc civ3 when you desperately have to drop a huge load and pinch it off for an hour because you're in the middle of a huge battle. Then you begin to wish you were playing on a laptop so you can take it with you.

I woke up this morning from a dream where I was trying to be the first civ to get my settler to a tile that was irrigated and had iron AND spices - possible only in a dream.

it's kind of hard to play civ3 on a laptop... not to mention in a bathroom.

You know you play too much civ3 when you're still posting in a you know you play too much thread or maybe

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

You realize the war was really fun, and now you just click from one year to another improving your culture just so that you can tell your history teacher that you were researching Hitler's and Neapolitan’s motivation for conquest. No wonder the middle eastern's space program is throwing rocks at each other. Maybe they can buy one from a corporation or poorer developed nation who needs the cash and who loves to drain capital from poor countries.
