#@#% backseat generals

LOL. Good stuff

Since I hope you have at least a room for yourself: get a lock for the door.

Well I'll tell you one thing, nobody is telling me what to do in my game. 1. I lock myself up, 2. switch off the phone, shut down IMs etc.

If anyone tells me what to do a simple roaring shout at nose distance "SILENCE !! YA N00000b !!!!" ;) usually does the trick.

Notice though how much the GFX have changed to game's appeal to the mass market.

The annoying armchair thing happened to me a lot in this games cafe I used to play in. Was playing America's Army and all these people, who know nothing of the game kept coming up and sourrounding my PC.. do this, do that... that gets me mad. I don't have that problem anymore because I made it clear that it distracts me from my game (MY KING, MY EMPIRE !!) and I don't like it.

It can be quite fun having a whole load of you on X-Fire discussing your individual campaigns as you are playing them. Kind of the opposite of the backseat General. This time it's fellow Generals bemoaning their own bad luck

I do miss my backseat general as we both playing RTW til midnight, getting Mcfood to recharge and discussing strategy on the way.

[Skott]

When I play I have a habit of discussing it aloud with myself as if I'm discussing the strategy with someone. Needless to say the rest of the family tends to give me a wide berth and stays away.
