    -You know your addicted when you find a knife in the sewer, ask it for advice, and wield it feeling safe in the knowledge that this knife will protect your brain from intruders

    I know I've played too much because I understand what you are referring to!

    you know you have played too much because you wonder if wikipedia is right to say that Lilarcor and Vin Diesel are both Chaotic Evil.

    Yeh me too, not that I see anything wrong with that, who wouldn't want a knife than protects your brain from intruders.



    you know you've played too much BGII when you see squirrels, you throw nuts.

    You say: "Okay, nobody do anything rash." Whenever people are disagreeing....


    When getting hurt you think, "Damage Taken: 12"

    So you sleep for 10 hours, wake up with bruises and wonder why noone cast their healing spells on you.

    When you loose intrest in math class and half fall a sleep but start speaking...
    Where am I? This is a dream. A dream of many thing things. Of the past DO you remember them. Gorion or any of the others? They were the guidence. I don't remember any of you. Do remember Seravock? He sought your death and mine. But something seems so much closer. Do you remember me?

    She clings to past as if it actually matters. None of this is real yet. Accept the gifts offered to you. But the consequences are so very real. Accept the gifts offerded to you or live with the innocent that died because of you.
    Or something like that.(Its been awhile).

    Thinking you can reload after making a fool of yourself.

    Thinking you can take on anyone by turing into the slayer for but a faction of your soul.

    Well, if you're scrounging around in sewers, you probably have an addiction/affliction unrelated to BG2. ;)

    You know you've played too much BG when:

    You rate women on a (charisma) scale of three to eighteen instead of the classic one to ten...

    You brag about becoming proficient at texting with your off-hand, so you can still drive and shift with your main-hand...

    Although you've long since moved over to 3rd ed D&D rules, you still keep the 2nd ed books by the computer... :rolleyes:

    LOL! And can you spell the other dragons? Firkraag is obviously easy, but

    You know it when:

    ... you start dreaming in infinity engine graphics, then wake up and head straight for the computer, to get back to real life...

    ... "Minsc and Boo stand ready" is a way you greet your non-English speaking relatives...

    ... you start picking numbered conversation options in your head every time you speak to someone...

    ... you start casting Magic Missile... and Magic Missile only... just to hear how they sound

    ... you're halfway through a maths exam, and all you can think of is that you REALLY need to start with a new party, so you write their names on your exam papers, plan it all out, and than leave... exam unfinished.

    O, who am I kidding. I'm still playing... And I'm loving it.:)
