How to Know when you have been Nesing for too long..

[tommy_toon]

274. You can't count properly

275. You've spammed so much in a Nes thread that it was either closed or you were banned.

 

[Reno]

276. You are so attached to the NES forum that you haven't taken part in 275.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

277. You become convinced that spam is an essential element of a good NES.

278. At the same time you denounce spam and notify moderators.

 

[Reno]

279. You are convinced that some spam is good, but too much is inheritely bad.

 

[Gelion]

279. You hate spam in NESes as you have to scroll through pages of it. You hate it even more when you are a mod.

280. You contributed to the "Guide to NESing"

 

[Kal'thzar]

281. You want the Guide to Nesing revised
282. You want to create a Buddy system for New Nesers, to suck them into the game completly.

283. You know that McClellan totally cheated when he stole Lee's orders.

284. You can't believe that he didn't exploit it totally.

 

[Dachs]

285. You are amazed that Alexander the Great could conquer 2/3 of Persia in half of a fresh-start turn, and finish the rest in the following half, and then write a story that kills him off...before he's done all of this. You conclude that he's playing in a fresh start stNNES, where the timeline is different and doesn't run on the BC/BCE to AD/CE scale. You also conclude that he's das, who likes character-based stories and surprising the hell out of the other players.

286. You believe that Heraclius was either Stormbringer or North King until you realize that neither one of them like the Byzantines.

287. You spent nearly a hundred dollars on every piece of Star Wars soundtrack music to listen to while you NES, to jog your thinking.
