Title: You know might me a EE junkie when....
Post by: UrbanShocker on September 19, 2005, 08:17:32 PM
Guys,
Welcome back it's good to back on the forums. During the down I've come up with a list of things that you mark you as an EE junkie. (Without further ado and some aplogizes to Jeff Foxworthy.
You know you my might be a ee junkie if…..
You have EE’s site as your opening page.
You have EE office number on speed dial.
You have Thom’s cell phone digits memorized and talk to him daily.
You inspired a Warzone mini.
You stop by the factory weekly, if not more often.(or gaming store for those that don’t have the luxury of living near Philly.)
You have met over half the people that post on the forums and have grudge matches running with most of them.
You recently started to pick a few units for your fourth army in Warzone and a third for Chonopia.
You end up play testing all the new units.
You have a copy of the short-lived Chronopia Empires rules.
You have all of books EE/Target has put out from 1st edition to Ultimate War zone this goes for Chronopia too.
You have all the Chronicles magazines.
You’ve memorized the arguments of why war zone is a superior game than 40K.(lower price, small unit tactics, alternative activations) And have converted players to EE games.
You played war zone at a gaming store where there is a 40k tournament going on. And some how ended up with a bigger crowd watching your game.
You traveled hours just for a UWZ game…

Take it from me, being an EE junkie is a lot healthier than other bad habits.

No being gulity of multiple items on the list is not a bad thing. :) In fact it's a good thing. Besides who isn't an EE junkie that post here?

VEEZ: My name is Veez and I am an EE junke CROWD: Hi Veez VEEZ: It all started back in the 90's with Mutant Chronicles...But I can stop whenever I want to. I just surf e-bay for old Warzone stuff because I'm bored or something. Yeah. I mean everybody goes through the bargain bin for old WZ figs right?

I did travel hours for a Warzone game more than once, however I don't feel being an EE junkie. Merely a Warzone junky (and even that... I must confess I've begun playing 40K).

I don't think that any one of these would make someone a junkie. However, any two or more in excess might make one reconsider. If that is the case , I might be considered a junkie. Quick Thom, give me a fix.

Might I add a couple to the list ...
When you're counting the days you've been "sober" (ie. not had a single WZ miniature in your hand) and feeling the itch grow by the hour ... finally you give up and paint something (the quick fix) or set up a table and actually play a game (the satisfying fix).
You end up playing against yourself when you're "date" decides they'd rather spent their sunny sunday afternoon doing something ELSE and you've already set the table up. (Btw: it's actually quite fun playing against your own thinking).

You know your an EE junkie when you spend a month converting 40k armies to Warzone AND writing the fluff so they fit into the universe.
Tau, Eldar, and Dark Eldar down... Necrons on the way Now I just have to figure out how to fit Orks into Warzone...
;D

orks are a fungus ::) mutated by the dark soul that said "OI!!!! We ain't takin' orders from you, or anybody else !!!"

This is an intervention.
Put down the dice and step away from the gaming table.
