    ...You start moving around the office a few steps at a time, stopping in between to make sure you're not about to get tangled up in someone else's Zone of Control.

    ...When your son turns 16, you give him a horse and tell him to spend the next two years patrolling the back yard for bandits and to build a watchtower out by the juniper bushes.

    ...You by a pet rat and train him to sleep under your bed as a distraction for poisonous snakes.

    When you deny that anywhere out of the M2TW map radius exists.

    When you insist upon magical green arrows that let you travel from Spain to Africa by foot.

    When a salesman comes to your door you mumble 'Oh no. It's that Inquisitor again. I will just use my +10 dread and piety ratin to shrug him off!'

    O.K. I'll take the cheap one:

    When you're confused and trying to figure out why hovering your mouse over unit cards isn't revealing any unit info and then realize its because you're looking at a screen shot.

    You fail a world history exam because you confused in game events with historical occurences.

    ...a mysterious bloke turns up on your doorstep mumbling about Thor and Odin and absolutely will not leave your side.

    ...you suddenly realise that the toothpick you're using is a splinter of the True Cross.

    ...you ever find yourself becoming Exhausted because of all the late nights.

    you know too much about M2TW

    you post too little on the forums (as time is better spent playing)

    you start trying out those new combat animations in the privacy of your room

    you start shouting charge when you force yourself to run faster

    you wonder what traits you and others would have

    you actually have to force yourself to abstain or fail college due to not getting any work done
    Want gunpowder, mongols, and timurids to appear when YOU do?
    Playing on a different timescale and never get to see the new world or just wanting to change your timescale?

    ...you start changing the form of insults in the pre-battle speeches (for example, sausage eating beer swilling imperial pudding heads to cheese eating wine drinking .... you get the point) to fit the faction of your choice [No offense meant to anyone btw]

    ...you think that Moscow actually is to the east of Novgorod.

    ...you think that there's no way to get to the red sea from the meditterranean.

    ...you think that during lunch hour at 12:10 the Horde will appear.

    ...and only if you make a mathematical model that goes like O(t)=[ax/t^2-g(e^x)+(1-g)(m^by)]/<5t-6,3x,y>*|z^c| for predicting when your campaign will be over.

    ...you start recognizing BTW as 'Barbarian: Total War' or some other TW variation of some sort.
