    When your walking in the countryside and your scouting for a good position for your cavalry.

    For me, it's definitely when a game starts appearing in my dreams that I know I'm addicted to it. I don't know how many times that's happened to me, but it's gotta be in the hundreds for sure.

    Cliff Racers are easy; just keep a bow primed and your eyes pealed.

    You know you're addicted to PC gaming when you have a dream about Italian Spear Militia holding the line (MTW).

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    When a burned-out motherboard ruins your plans for the entire weekend. (Dang, no virtual activities for me, purely analog reality!) And here I was just getting into Europa Universalis: Rome Gold.

    -edit-

    I could buy the OS X version for the laptop, but somehow I can't see paying for the game again.

    When you can't find sleep because you're trying to plan the loot distribution of the boss your WoW guild is trying to defeat.
    "Should I spend my DKP on this staff or on the T4 chest piece?" or "I didn't get the dagger this week, but I can still get the gloves on that boss. I'll get the pointy weapon next week"

    Most horrible time in my life. Ever.

    When people are shocked when you tell them how you relax (With strategy games a la TOAW and Vicky)
