    The OH teases me terribly over how competitive I am, it really is an affliction.
    I have been known to wrestle a buzzer out of a team members hands while playing Buzz as "They were answering too slowly...".
    So how many more Monicas are there out there?

    I'm banned from Buzz in the OH's family home, I did warn him how bad I was though.
    Its quite strange thought, the OH loves the fact he can beat my score on certain games and will rub it in, knowing I'll play again and again until I beat his score by even 1 point.....sad i know.
    I totally get your friends frustration..:D

    Im horribly competitive..a b1tch almost when it comes to competitions :o

    I just love to win and fecking HATE loosing.

    We have a wii in our house how, and spent hours on it last night with a mate over playing..giving a sarcastic smile to her to piss her off everytime I got a point :pac:

    I even resort to name calling..to people on my team even when they are making me lose :o

    I am totally un-competitive.....

    I find competitive games boring and would never bother with them at all.

    Except maybe darts or bowling for fun but I wouldn't care how I was doing or anything.

    If it's someone who I don't get along paricularly well with I find I'm more competitive. I'm somewhat competitive I'd say. Although I don't get angry or anything I just get annoyed a bit at myself. Or else laugh it off if it's with friends.

    I strive to win and have little interest if I have no hope of doing it (applies to subjects in school too). I hate losing. Sad but true. Lucky I win a lot :)

    Thats pretty much like me :o

    Me and my brother have often spent hours on the wii cos we're both so competitive and neither of us can bear to leave it when we're losing....
    I even resort to name calling..to people on my team even when they are making me lose :o

    Lol, i do that too :o Its usually only family members so thats alright...i try to tone down the competitiveness with other people :rolleyes:
