... You're convinced that a new building in your area is somehow connected

[niobexrev]

[EDIT] Didn't realize this "humorous" topic would be taken "seriously". Okay, okay.

I'll play by the rules.

You might be a meta gamer if...

... you're a preacher and you go to church, start your sermon with, "Are you ready to be filled with the Holy Dolphin!!?" (blank stares from the congregation)

[Miss Starchild]

Everytime you see something related to dolphins you remember of Wongmo.

[Miss Starchild]

You're actually doing Leiphe's lessons.

[catherwood]

You've stopped socializing in #unfiction and instead go straight to #matrix (says the guilty chat-slut)

[yanka]

... you MISS your best friend's kid's birthday party because your memory evidentally failes to store any non-game information

[peter_magenheimer]

...you look for hidden messages in TV commercials... (*cough*)

...you try to explain the concept of an ARG to other people, and you end up telling them the entire storyline... (still elicits many blank stares)

[the42guy]

You come up with the topic "You might be a meta gamer if..."

You have 70+ posts on unfiction, and you just joined (for this game).
[/me eyes a certain few...]

Umm... you keep wondering why you have a spoon?

[niobexrev]

... you get bitter when you miss out on even just one thing that happened with the game. (gives her phone a brief but intent stare.)

... your answering machine says, "Hi I'm not home right now, but if you'd like to leave a message I'll try to get back to. P.S. I this is Beth McConnell, please leave all passwords, IP addresses, new websites with the Underscore Hosting Logo on them, etc. after the tone. Thank you."

... you think the only people playing this game are hackers, so whenever someone asks, "What do you mean?" you get that smarmy look on your face and try to explain it to them in what you think is "laymen's terms" but you're still using hacker lingo that non-hackers don't understand jack sh*t about.

... you've been playing the game so long that you don't know who's a newbie and who's actually been here the entire game.

[Omnie]

...you bought one of these

...and ordered one for each of your family members and friends who have not yet freed their inner dolphin.

[Sunny du Pree]

Your friends plan an intervention because they think that you are obsessed with the games and have no life outside of the internet and give you worried stares when you try to explain.
AND no matter how hard you try you cant keep from checking for updates.

(sunny begins to salivate when she hears YOUVE GOT MAIL)

[Azathoth666]

...You print hardcopy of sixty odd pages of Unforum threads... in duplicate... and keep them close to hand because it's easier than trying to explain things to people.

[joebrent]

Woah, you guys are way more hardcore than I am. Doesn't anyone here have, like, a job?
