52. When you find yourself listening to the ILoveBees post-game telephone chat (all 65 minutes of it) out of boredom, months after the fact.

53. When the mailman rings your doorbell to have you sign for a certified letter and when you realize that the letter is addressed to someone who doesn't live in your house the first thought that goes through your mind is that it must be for an ARG rather than a simple typo in the address.

56. You wake up in the afternoon - look at the alarm and try and decipher the code. After falling asleep twice you finally admit to your self it is just your alarm clock.

57. You find yourself writing letters in different handwriting and stuffing them in your friends' lockers, denying the fact that it was you.

59. Your printer somehow garbles a PDF when printing it, and you immediately see that it's in ROT-1.

Seriously. I think my printer's gone insane.

62. You get obsessed by the fact that one of the players must be in game, and subsequently find his home and term-time address, term time phone number, electoral roll details and history. You then find out he's 100% totally out of game, and get a bit scared over how obsessed you're getting over this whole thing...

63. You plan to make a 2 hour trip into London at a cost which will throw this term's budget on its head, just in case there is an in game event there (when you know that the probablility is somewhere in the region of 10^-3)

64. You suddenly realise when writing these posts - what if these boards are in game - all the mods, everything... Shocked

Then 62 wouldnt be OOG... erm... Embarassed

Erm, I'm going to bed.

65. You realize that from the time the game started untill now, you've had the same ILB background on your computer.

66. The formerly mentioned background is self-made and contains secret messages to yourself in the code and design.
