31. When you go into someone's house and try and teleport back to your house.
32. When you and the person you're talking to begin to get OOS errors.
33. When you start hearing orcish assassins outside your bedroom window.

34. You have five versions of wesnoth installed on your computer, and a shortcut to each one is pinned to your start menu.

This type of thing fakes me out when I look at the main index, I think someone actually posted something. At least Three word story and Vending Machine were in Off-Topic. :augh:

My subconscious is very strange. I think Dave was involved in that dream too, but I forgot how.
You dreamt you were with shadowmaster in a bathroom?

I dreamed I was here. That's the closest I could find to describe the setting. There's an obvious difference between normal bathrooms and this, isn't there?. I think it's still technically a bathroom though. And SM manifested as a lovecraftian entity. Strange, isn't it?

35....thinking about which Loyalist line you want to become at military service-Spearman, Bowman, HI...
36....figuring you have to chose the Sergeant line because they have to promote you to Marshall at the start of the first scenario because of your incredible experience and leadership.
37....promoted to Marshall at the start of the first scenario because of your incredible experience and leadership.
38....able to create something such monumental as IFTU or Era of Magic within a single day out of boredom that has not a single bug or balance issue.
39....the only one who can play your incredible campaign with the easiest difficulty, but for you it is too easy even with the hardest option.
40....always trying to save 25 Gold each turn(for you cannot choose 0 Gold at the beginning of a Mp match).

Done that several times. Also talk about the "unit description" and "portrait" when discussing pre-packaged food, and refer to someone's ability to run interference, distract or stop things as their ZoC.
...apparenly we can't go with it or something.

32....thinking you will learn pyrokinesis if you study physics.
33....trying to study "Magic" at your university.
34....calling your physics teacher "Great", "Arch" or "Silver Mage".

35. You remember the original thread, as well as the fact it reached 70-something pages before being locked by a shadow hammer.

40. When you visit the cemetery, you always bring a shiny bottle of water with you.
41. When walking through New York City, you wonder, since when did villages get so advanced?
42. When you wonder what kind of idiotic map-maker drew New York City with so many villages. You never walk there again because it is so unbalanced.
