Your spreadsheet takes 10 minutes to load, half the numbers are weird, and you dread the day when you'll have to find out why.

 I was reading an article about Swine Flu, and the article mentioned **168** confirmed cases in one of the locations.

My mind immediately lept to the value of regenerating wolverine shields on a FF. Rolling Eyes

 ... when you spend a few weeks working out how high a score you can get by 2450 in a testbed ... and after you are done, realize a whole lot of things you could have done lots better, and want to do it again!

When you lay there in bed alone because your girlfriend left you for smelling really bad from not taking a shower in weeks.
You replace your g/f's pillow with your laptop so you dont feel alone.
You turn the lights out to go to bed and have the stars map as a screen saver for a nightlight.
You wake up and play all the AI on a huge uni to see if you can beat them till they dont exist.
After words you feel like you accomplished something and could die the happiest man ever.
Instead after waking up from dreaming of Stars you realize you had a W*T Dream.
(well i saw everyone's posts so i felt i should at least attempt this even if i am lame)

We moved recently, but in our previous bedroom, we'd put glow-in-the-dark stars all over the ceiling and walls...would it be too much if I added glow-in-the-dark blue lines, red/yellow/blue triangles and blotches as well in the new bedroom? Laughing

 Your footie team hasn't won the flag for 40+ years & you can't decide whether to go watch them play the Grand Final or play Stars.

 ... you make your turns late and can't sleep because you fear you didn't move that DDs. So you get up, switch on the PC and look it up, hopefully only once.

 ... you decide to break the Stars!-habit by playing another game.

... and get bored by every other game you try within a few hours at the latest.

... and return to Stars!, eagerly scouring the forum for a game you could join.

... and don't find one.

... and decide you'll have to host one yourself.

I've can actually enter mine without having to look it up despite the fact I've only needed to enter it 3 times in the last 2 years, there's nothing particularly memorable about it so I have no idea why it has stuck.

 Hi!

This whole thread is nonsense. You can't play Stars! too much. Never ever. Period.
