I'm sorry. I have sent this to the YTMND crew. It had to be done...
EDIT: You know, I just can't do that to the ORG. Nevermind. Carry on.

Maximus, have you considered commanding your wife to go bake a pie? That'll give you a few hours of peace, and then surprise! Pie!
Let us know how that goes, seriously.![]()

Dude, you are kidding right??? I've prolonged going to the bathroom for a couple of hours because of MTW, but never put off THAT.

It is entirely possible that a wife continualy disregards and spurns advances from her man until he is engaged in something else he wants to do and then suddenly all she wants is for him to come and "horse around" in bed. Not saying thats whats going on with maximus overlord, but it has happened to me a couple of times.
A woman can get in a funky mood for a week or so where she isn't having it when you want it at all, but she wants you to give something up for it. Like all day and evening your giving her attention and trying to get some and she knows you are trying so she refuses you. Then you give up and that night are watching a really good football game, watching a really good movie, ready to go out with friends, playing a game your into and suddenly now she wants it.![]()

To get some gametime, I had to promise to give my girlfriend Spain. I worry now that she thinks she will actually get the real Spain as she's been nice to me lately.
Never say no to nookie, most women dont offer, take it, enjoy it, then its back to the game for you and out to the kitchen for her..
mmmm. Pie.

All right ... all right ... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order ... what HAVE the Romans ever done for US?
When we get like that we can be very persistent, but I have high hopes for you, maximus overlord. Keep fighting the good fight and welcome to the Org!!

She will never change. With MTWII coming soon, I would suggest you divorce her.
If the TW game has got to the stage where it's taking over your life, and you prefer to play the game instead of engaging in "bedroom sports" with your wife/girlfriend, then it has got to the "beyond reason" stage.

thanks for all the answers i enjoyed reading them lots of god stuff here but as i wrote this thread yesterday i have to come forth and tell that eventualy yesterday i had to surrender and jump in the bedroom battlefield where i was tottaly deafetet wau wau guys get you wife's waiting a week or so and youre in for a treat![]()
Just in case you ever consider refusing...
Please don't give me any more reasons to believe I have the god given right to kill stupid people, and no longer care enough for my own well being to restrain from exercising that right for the good of society.
Thank you.
If she does this on a regular basis, you will need to regain the initiative. If she gets you into the bed, you will be stuck since no doubt she will want to cuddle afterwards. So instead, take her earlier in the evening. Make it look spontaneous, like you have to have her then and now. It not only will make her feel wanted and add a little spice, but it will also be too early to spend the rest of the evening in bed. If you do the job right, she'll be satisfied and should leave you in peace for a late night gaming session. It is possible to have your cake, eat it, and still play video games, but you have to work at it.![]()
If you have children, the timing might be more difficult. Can't really ravish your woman on the kitchen table with kids running around. More cunning will be necessary to overcome these obstacles.
And, whatever you do, DO NOT let her figure out/tell her what you are doing. Women generally don't like the fact that a boyfriend/husband can have fun for long periods of time without them involved, and can become jealous of the computer. If she clues in on what you are doing, she will put a stop to it and you will need to find a new tactic.
Hope this helps, and welcome to the .Org!![]()

This isn't a difficult situation. In fact its a no-brainer. In fact, with a 2 yr old you probly need to take advantage of every opportunity.
No, the really sucky situation is the "stop playing on the computer and sit with me whilst I watch 3 hours of X Factor/Pop Idol/Insert mind-numbingly tedious reality TV of choice".
One day (when I grow a pair) I'll suggest if she wants to sit with me, she sit next to me watching as I expand Bactria from a Eurasian backwater to an Eastern superpower.
"I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."
Senator Augustus Verginius
Not as amusing as this exchange though. Can't believe I missed this when first reading the thread.

PS. And good luck with that, Mount Suribachi. Of course, the best solution to this situation is to get your better half addicted to a video game herself. But not too addicted...

When a fox kills your chickens, do you kill the pigs for seeing what happened? No you go out and hunt the fox.
Cry havoc and let slip the HOGS of war
That is the nightmare situation. I have heard of cases where the wife watched "Big Brother" for hours and forced the husband to do the same. As a result his campaign suffered. This is in fact cruelty. Imagine the scenario:Originally Posted by Mount Suribachi
And the solution? Simple.Wife, loudly: "Are you watching or what?"
Husband: "whaaa... oh yes, I'm engrossed dear, totally engrossed... (...now where was I, oh yes camels. If I take the sinai next, charge camels uphill at the enemy's nubian spearmen, build a trader, and 80% farmland...)"
Wife: "HAHAHA... did you see that"?
Husband "ummm... oh yes! hahaha... (next I'd have to annex Ireland, but I haven't worked out how to get there yet...)
Wife: "Oh my god, they're going to... oh no they're not, oh HAHAHAHA! oh noooooo that was harsh! Hey are you watching?"
Husband: "(....hmmm camels, nizaris, if only....) Oh yea terrible... (now if I can retake Syria, charging his camels with my peasants should do it...)
Wife: "you're not watching are you?"
Husband: "(...camels...) whaaat?
Wife: "exactly..."
Husband: "Exactly what? (...desert archers, siege or asssault, and well now ghazis!)
Wife: "Forget it ok?"
Husband: "Forget what?"
Wife: "Nothing... JUST GO AND PLAY YOUR STUPID *BLEE - BLEE - BLEEP* GAME!"
*DOOR SLAMS*
Wife exits
*sounds of TV upstairs*
Husband: "(...camels...)"
*lunges for the pc*
End of.Wife, loudly: "Are you watching or what?"
Husband: "GAH!!"
