You know you play too much Achaea when ...

Ruth

I use a lot of Achaean 'emotes' in my speaking to express myself, like agree, giggle, hop, squeal, cough, etc.

Kek.

Chryenth

I 'qq'ed instead of 'gg'-ing in Starcraft once. Caught myself before I left the game, fixed it. I think I confused the other guy, though.

You're browsing the forums at 2am and receive messages to go to sleep.

Berenene

You create invitations to your house warming and have to redo them all from scratch because no-one will get the achaean references.

I would have left them in and then laughed myself silly.

Daslin

When you fanned the flame.

Xer

When you edit AchaeaWiki

Chryenth

When you see a friend is tired - sort of laid out on the desk, half-asleep kind of tired - and the first thing you think of to inspire them is 'Regular sleep is for the week'.

I *may* be becoming Mhaldorian IRL.

Jiraishin

I once redid the Seven Truths of Evil as the Seven Truths of IB  (that's International Baccalaureate if anyone doesn't know)

Valden

When you rename the company chat-group into your house creed just because you're working with Unity.

Yue

@Jiraishin: It's been a while since I was in high school but this still made me laugh. I took a full IB schedule and can definitely say that I do not miss it at all. College was easier and more fun. Great idea tho!

Jiraishin

I should post them later when I'm not working off my phone.

Jiraishin

The Seven Truths of IB:

1. What is called IB is simply the drive for advancement, for greatness. We seek, through discipline and pain, to spur the advancement of nothing less than sentient life.

2. Cruelty - the deprivation of sleep - is the method by which one weeds out the weak and feeble-minded from the population.

3. Weakness must be eliminated in all its forms: Academic, Creative, and Extracurricular.

4. The enemies of strength are those who trumpet the effeminate values of free time, tolerance, and laxity of discipline.

5. The body may be made stronger through caffeine.

6. The mind may be made stronger through the elimination of conscience. One does this by copying the work of others.

7. The spirit may be made stronger by enduring hardships, both self-imposed and externally-imposed.

Airline sends laptop to wrong city. First thought - "not going to make the raid today". Second thought - "hmm, my work is on there".

Priorities, you have them.

Erasariel

Well, at least he has the right priorities. Goodness knows people mess them up all the time nowadays.

When you don't think "oh, that sucks" first, you think "oh there's going to be raid by Mhaldor? I should log on"

Chryenth

When you see the phrase 'positive vibes' and think 'Harmony? Heat? Adduction?'

Iocun

When you even get past the point of thinking of OOC things in an Achaea-related fashion, because you don't actually do anything besides playing Achaea.

Welcome to Achaea level: Addict. (aka, Penwize level) 

Alcinae

When you're putting away your cereal bowl in the kitchen, and leave your character on the road for a few minutes, and you think... "Holy crap, what if there's a raid and they kill me first?"

Tvistor

Once I was raiding Eleusis with Mhaldor, but my waterwalking had decayed. I had a pair of pink pixie boots, but I wasn't going to wear them in front of anyone. I spent the entire raid standing on the Zaphar going 'Oh yeah, I'll catch up in five minutes guys', then putting on the boots after they left, phasing and following them, removing them, then unphasing all innocent like.

I thought Tirac was onto me when he asked if I needed a lift, but I convinced him I was making my own way back for some obscure reason.

Katzchen

@Tvistor out of curiosity, why did you have pink pixie boots? Also this is where mounts come in handy.

Tvistor

I needed to go to New Hope to make out with Silas but there was no waterwalking anywhere, except one pair of pixie boots in Delos.

I'm not proud of what I've done.

Wysteria

Making out with Silas or the boots? Geez just ask a Magi for a waterweird next time.

Alyssea

When half the words you find in Boggle only exist in Achaea. (I saw Soopay in two different rounds. Wanted to use it so bad )

Wysteria

I miss Soopay. It's one less grove I'm allied to because he's never around!

I remember this.
