    Nevah!

    *nods sagely*

    Thank goodness. ;)

    S'pose gaming counts as nerdy?

    Given that my WoW days are over, I suppose it's just Football Manager, Pes and Medieval 2: TW for me. That nerdy enough?

    A love of history/classics is pretty bad too.

    Nowt wrong with that, since I stopped no-lifing it on WoW I've actually played very little but it's been mostly Nintendo stuff.

    Yes classics is nerdy - but interesting! Ancient history is kinda awesome to read about.

    Getting kicked from the guild you helped your ex develop is a great incentive for quitting. ;)

    Really hoping I can take more Medieval History and Classical Modules for next year. Makes Commerce more bearable. :pac:

    I really do need to find a new game to play though. ^^

    I've already failed one year of college, and this time it's my final year. :pac:

    I dunno, the whole betrayal lark of the end of my WoW career has kinda soured me on MMO's for a while. I know not everyone's a jerk, but when the people you play with and trust the most change to such huge degrees... It's just scary to be honest.

    Anyways, hopefully something slightly less addictive might pop up. :D

    Well the pre-order preview weekend is this weekend, i'd say some games have taken a hit in population alright.

    Oh i played like 1-2 days of WoW total and gave up on it, total bullplop game.

    Not sure I'd even bother with another MMO after WoW. Drama always sours you towards these kinda things. ^^

    I see your point there! I don't think I'll play another MMO either, the thought of going back to nolifing it the way I did on WoW is a little scary, and I don't think I'm the kind of person who can play an MMO casually. Probably as close as I'll get will be Diablo 3 (which I can't wait for!).

    Still see my ex no-lifing it... It's genuinely scary. Couldn't do that again.

    The worst part is that you don't really recognise how bad it is until you're out of it, while you're playing you see the insane playing hours as normal.

    Yeah... It's so much worse seeing someone else you know keeping it up...

    At least with other games there's some degree of control over it. It's too easy to log on to WoW, chat, then end up playing for 5 hours. So in that regard I'm glad I'm out of it. Had a cool guild which I helped build up, and that's another problem, you enjoy 'hanging out' with them too much to quit properly. I know I'd never have quit if I was still with my ex, so there's some silver lining there. ;)

    And that's the nice thing about being back playing stuff on my Wii - your arms get tired from waving the bloody controller around for too long, so you can't really spend WoW-length sessions playing.
