Signs of being addicted to bushtarion

[IceOfFire]

I suddenly remembered how funny this thread was (see below), and its been dead in old forums for ages, so i thought we could start a new one as times have changed since then.

What are the signs that ur addicted to bushtarion...

[Nitrous]

Let me see...

- When you set an alarm to get up to do a tech.
- When you set a time to take down an enemy.
- When you buy a phone with internet JUST for bush. (Well mainly for bush) :oops:
- When you start bunking off school to play bush.
- When you say on msn to a mate..."Just going afk, will be back in a couple ticks."
- When you get HL'd so much a round, that you wake up in the middle of the night thinking its a HL when there was no HL (Yes, it happened to me plenty in RedTube/BlackBriar rounds)
- When you wake up on a school morning about 5:00AM just to help nightcover and help the team out. (Yes, I do that...Well haven't done it for some time now but I used to at least)
- When you're sat in the middle of an exam and suddenly wonder if you got zeroed whilst you were in the exam hall.
- When you refresh almost every tick whilst your online on the round break (the week between two rounds).
- Finally, when you start dreaming of certain units e.g. PAs/Trexes/Strikers :oops:

I agree with everything Nitrous said and i can add one of my own:

-Compare school grades before and after you knew of bushtarion....to you dismay :(

[Max]

Definitely when you refresh during the round break, I am terrible at doing that :D

I would also suggest that one is addicted to bushtarion when one organises their daily tasks around how long it takes to finish an attack. Over last summer I would always plan to clean / shower / shop / go to the bank etc. based on when my troops got home :D

When you set ur watch or phone to server time to avoid confusion with LTs etc!

I agree. Gaming life improves your mathematics skills due to the constant need to calculate certain things in your daily gaming life.

-when you drive by a for sale sign of some farm land and say "only 137 acres?"

[ToY]

LMFAO @ Sweetlee

[Ogluk]

-when you look at house prices in Australia and Hawaii on a regular basis in the hope of moving just to get a better timezone...

i think in garretts case the wife is more addicted then himself lol...but its a good sign of being addicted...getting the ppl around you hooked on it as well ;)

[Alcibiades]

-you keep refreshing once it ticks over in havoc hoping to see funds to replace the ridiculous waste of troops you had earlier so you can do it all over again.

[Splatter]

Saying something in conversation to friends, then quietly thinking to yourself "Actually, that'd make a great ID name!"

[Cyrus]

[timtadams]

Getting up at like 5 am or earlier for the last hour/s of the round to make sure you dont get zeroed right at the end, or not going to bed at all, and then staying up longer for a bit of Havoc

[willymchilybily]

real signs ...

* Home page http://www.bushtarion.com


i've had it like that for so long i go to other peoples houses and use thier pc, click home and think the pc is broken when i dont see the bushtarion home page.

- stocking up on enough cans of relentless or (insert other similar caffine based drink here) so that you can do a straigh 48 hours when the new round starts

-saying to someone ill do it in two ticks, and laughing to yourself because the fool has no idea you wont be doing it for at least 20 minutes..Muhahaha

-refreshing the "your alliance" or "overview" page well over three times in a tick incase suddenly incoming has appeared

[Loz]

when you give away you mobile phone number to strangers on the other side of the world and figure out what GMT you are. i think that was when i stepped over the line of being addicted cause thats when i started losing sleep over the game. But at least this addiction won't kill me, i think. oh **** :?. I think i read some where that too much bushtarion gives you cancer

give it a few months and some of the longer playing people might start informing of their sicknesses
