You play too much if

  • you send an email to your root with “Greetings!” initiate
  • you read the websites about "Creative Anachronism"
  • you speak Quenya fluently because you use it to name your units and regions
  • half of your installed fonts are runes
  • your daily backup consists of 5 MB diplomatic mail and 3 MB reports
  • and address your partner with “Unit 2, To the West. Enter Cinema”
  • you mourn for your scout
  • you think that with your diplomatic skill you could also be used as a mediator in Yugoslavia...
  • ...until you remember that you don't have 10,000 swordsmen there
  • you think that the cynicism you acquired in Eressea will enable you to pursue a career as a politician
  • you think that every foreign minister should have fought a war in Eressea at least once
  • The ability to send thousands to their deaths is certainly invaluable.
  • ...you can recruit new ones
  • you wish you had some brain power while solving the math problems
  • you pay attention to whether people in your area are decimating the population by eating farmers
  • you recognize a merman in every octopus
  • Whatever you want to do, you try to find someone who has a bonus on it
  • you count whether there are already more than 1000 units in your family (note the old unit limit)
  • When you hear “cheese” you think of a very, very, very last ultimatum
  • you wonder why the neighbor's cat doesn't wear plate armor
  • you start eating 2-euro pieces
  • you want to get by on 10 euros a week
