You might be a gamer if…
- You got tired of reading the “You’re still reading this list” comments, because of course you are.
- You’ve felt insulted when someone called you a “n00b”
- Even though you just bought the game
- Even though you had never played BEFORE you bought the game
- You went back to tally up EXACTLY how many of the things on this list apply to you
- and it was more than 100
- more than 250
- more than 500
- more than 850
- You think of this number as a badge of honor
- You’re favorite character alignment and type is a Lawful Evil Blackguard, and you can maintain that alignment indefinitely
- You have active subscriptions to more than 10 online games
- You have more than 1 account for at least half of those games
- You don’t think of others as true “gamers” unless they play more than 5 different games
- You buy games that you know you won’t like just so no one can say “Just try it, you may like it”
- You have everything you need to play over 15 different games sitting in labeled containers in the closet, just in case someone comes over and wants to play
- It’s not in the closet, but on a bookshelf in the living room
- You have legally changed your name to your character’s name, and then changed it back because of the hassle all the “Real World” PC’s gave you for changing it
- When someone says “MUD”, you don’t think about wet dirt
- You know what a MUD is
- You play a MUD
- You play more than one MUD
- You’re an admin for a MUD
- The game room in the house you and your gamer spouse designed is the biggest room.
- This is separate from the computer gaming room.
- Your gamer friends don’t think it’s big enough.
- You include room into your design for the friends who need to crash after a long night of gaming.
- They actually have a bed to sleep on.
- Your gaming library has enough copies of each book for every player to use… and a spare just in case.
- You refer to the ATM as the money alter.
- You pray to the green-light god so you can get to games on time.
- you have tried to test your players dedication to the game by scattering every D4 in the house on the front yard. - said players actully break out thier d20s to roll reflex and balance as they make thier way through the field of d4.
