Has anyone ever actually got in a sever slip and played the game for a certain period in between betas?

If so, I'm so trying!

24. You're hopping on eBay to see if you can find people selling the retail game yet, how much they're selling it for and hoping not to see all the *pre-order* posts since you no longer need 'em.
ALTERNATE: You're buying several copies of the game (retail or collectors) so you can post them on eBay and hope you make it worth your time and money and not get undersold.

25. You're wife, friends or family (all depending on individual) think you no longer exist and think you're a flook for talking about all your GW buddies and not spending enough time with them or in reality!
ALTERNATE: You ignore them because you're GW friends are your ONLY friends that are important and GW is your ultimate reality!

26. You tie up the phone lines (for us dial up people) and get calls at the end of the weekend wondering if you're still alive. Hope they know an alternate way of contacting you.

ALTERNATE: Those that live with you (unless you have deoderant stick ready and waiting by computer) think you or something is dead in the house because of the awful stench coming from the computer room.

33. Every other game suddenly gets real boring.
