I didn't see anything like this yet so I thought I'd start one. I've caught myself doing a few things I'm sure you all can identify with that say I'm a little TOO addicted to this game. Please add any that you may have too!!! Maybe you've been playing VV too long if.... Your gas bill went up due to all the times you had to fluff the clothes in the dryer cause you were a little too caught up in the game You realize that you're constantly staying up so late that even vampires and crack heads have gone to bed You realize that you eat more meals with your villagers than your signifigant other Tuna actually starts to sound like an acceptable name for a girl You start to believe that kissing may actually cause pregnancy. You believe that women could ever live on an island that hasn't discovered chocolate. You start having dreams of the Michael Jackson look alike GC doing the Thriller dance

You don't spend your whole day working in the office ... you keep checking the VV forum, think of new strategy for your villagers, and yearn to be home to give direction to your villagers.

I know I've been playing VV too long when I start seeing Villagers in the cars around me when I'm sitting in traffic.

When you name your hamster after your favorite villager When you dress your kid up as the Golden Child for halloween When you find your kid peeing in the garden because he watched you playing so much, and don't punish him. When your husband asks you why there is a basket of berries on the table and you say you went foraging at the market.
most of all When you sit at the computer writing down reasons you might be a VV addict!

mine are grapes and cranberries actually...its what mom calls "decor" and i call "de [censored]"
this morning i was talking to my students about job opportunities, and the first ones that popped to mind (no joking here) were farming, construction, architecture, nursing, and child care services. D'oh.
Luckily they had lots of ideas to shout at me.

You know you have been playing too long when you look at the pile of laundry next to the hamper and then start cursing because the villagers still haven't gotten around to YOUR clothes

You might have been playing VV too long if...
You actually believe a 64 year old woman would cheerfully become pregnant!
You believe a 20 year old male would chase after a 70 year old woman!
You begin to think bald kids are kinda cute.
You don't ask a new mother what gender her baby is because you KNOW no one knows until it's two anyway.
You honestly begin to believe that real men do laundry.

You tell your grandmother to "wait right there" when she complains of her arthritis, then dash off muttering, "Now where's that magic fruit??" **************************** You stand on top of her when that fails, to cure her **************************** You randomly complain/give praise/teach to the air/fish/cactus ************************ You drive straight to the center of your town when you are bored. ****************************** You stare blankly when an adult needs to "use the facilities". *********************** You are reading this list. *********

you trample straight across someone's crops because its the shortest route
run up to people and throw their laundry baskets to the ground and yell at them until they go weed the nearest garden
wander off to push on large rocks repeatedly, instead of doing the job you are paid to do
see a mushroom in the yard and run to get the nearest child to pick it for you instead of picking it yourself
stop burying your dead relatives/friends because you no longer have room in your backyard...

The very first thing you do in the morning is check that your village is ok after leaving them overnight... the very first thing you do when you get home is checking there ok.. you spend all your time away from them wondering about them.. and you check forums constantly for progress on vv2 as you cant quite settle untill you know where this crazy island is gonna take them next! Or in my very strange case, you rename the entire island after family and friends and play strange little puppet games, then tell your nearest and dearest all about it... ie oh col you lou ,danny and claire all went of to the love shack together!... oh lou yo were chasing danny round the isle trying to get him to knock you up!, becs i came on and you were pregnant!! whose is it? .. lmao. so so so so sad!

When you try to scroll through webpages with the hand instead of the scroll bar.
When you tell your significant other you'll be right to bed after this harvest comes in... and don't understand when they come back later to complain... until you realize it's light outside.
Waking up in the middle of the night to check on your villagers. (Even worse if you set the alarm clock for it, which I haven't done... but have thought about.)
Actually trying to explain to friends and family that you can't go out because you have a weakened villager... and while yes, there is a pause button... you can't really use it.

LOL Batgrl! *stealthily turning off the BatgrlCam* I've actually had this conversation:
Me: If I go to sleep now, I'll get up and they'll "ALL BE DEAD!" BF: Isn't there a pause button? Me: Well... yea... but how would you like it if God paused us every time he wanted to sleep? BF: How do you know he doesn't? Me: oooooooh! Spooky!
I still can't pause a game tho.

I have actually kept family trees & charts of genetics & photos of all my people, at birth or coming to the island, when they are adults and when they have children. Made up family photos of parents and child at 2 yrs old and finally tombstone info of each person who died.

Boy was I bummed to find out that the cemetary can only hold 50 and the log doesn't keep records of who is born to whom and when a person dies, when you're not watching. So I pause when not on the game.
It really killed me when I finally finished the game after 4 months and forgot to take a screen shot or download my stats!!!
Yes, I am obsessed and proud of it. Still working on Fish Tycoon too since the summer. Plan to get all 144 fish. Take screen shots of each type and keep a document.

ps - in this version of the game, the dog poop that appears on the bathroom floor in frame #2 and then is magically gone is the equivalent of the mushrooms in the real game. Pick it up and you get 15-45 points. I missed it, but my partner got it....

oh, and then there's... You know it's starting to be a problem when you find yourself turning and giving a little kick every time you complete a task. When I start having meaningful conversations with cacti, I'll know it means that either (1) I've gone completely bonkers and am ready for that padded cell or (2) I'm an honors grad of the Isola Medical Academy. -- Kathryn (your villager feels better after eating)

You know you've been playing VV too long if...
You are afraid to drink fizzy liquids in fear of losing skill
You see mushrooms pop up then disappear everywhere
You persuade the whole family to be addicted to VV
When you read novels you imagine the characters look like villagers
You grow carrots,turnips, and daikon in your garden.

OMG, thanks for the great laugh. I haven't laughed that hard in ages. I especially love the graphic, but the lists brought tears of laughter to my eyes, quite literally. I am totally guilty of many of the things on the list, but more than that I'm in awe at the comedic talent of many on this forum. Thanks again for the great laugh.

All right. Here's one. You know you've been playing VV too long when:
You wake up in the morning with red and puffy eyes from staring at your computer screen late into the night. You wonder if it's a sign that you are among the "weakened."

You start thinking of real life "Laundry" as a waste of time.
You're hungry, there's nothing in the pantry, and it occurs to you that you need to "Water the crops."
You're doing the daily crossword puzzle and can't seem to figure out that last section. You shake your head and say "uh uh. No." Then you do nothing for a while.

It occurs to you that teenage pregnancy rates might plummet if women really did emerge from the "hut" already with a baby in their arms.
But then it occurs to you that teenage pregnancy rates might explode if women really did get to take the next two years off and just hang out by the fridge and chat with other mommas while everyone else does the cooking, grocery shopping, and laundry.
Then it occurs to you that you just might get pregnant yourself if that were all true.

this reminds me of tetris. you start seeing things everywhere, end up dreaming of how to put the blocks, space out and think about how to put the blocks so you can win, thats the same effect that vv has on us.

you know you've been playing too long/husband has been watching you play too long when....
your husband comes home from work(he's a truck driver) and tells you one of the citys he visited reminded him of VV. he sees people who remind him of the diffrent villagers.
you label your villagers into 2 groups b=builder and p/h= farming and healing only so you can breed only the farmers/healers.
you put all the p/h on the berrie bush to keep them pure when the beach is covered in debrie.then put all the B on clearing the beach.
when you go to breed and get overly angery when a p/h has been doing building. then you yell at them for doing it.
you talk to your VV and you husband asks "what did you say?" and you tell him "nothing, i was just talking to my villagers."
you play the sims 2 and name them after your villagers, and give them jobs like in VV.

since we're on the 'breeding' topic, here's one: you know you've been playing VV too long if when you have a baby and your husband asks you to do somthing you say "no, i can't. i have to take care of our baby for another two years" LOL!

You know you've played VV too long when... ...Your idea of being a scientist is going to a dinner table andwagging your arms around every 3 seconds ...You stay on 30 minutes to see when a "0 more breeding minutes" villager finally gives up that baby. ...You go like "coo"every time you nurse a baby ...You color or something a mushroom or something and suddenly your eyes see it as them with white squares ...Same with tombstones ...You can explain VV so well that the people you tell it about to can get GC in under a week ...You search for buried treasure near fruit stands ...You do laundry every 5 minutes That's all folks

While I am at work, I find myself wanting to take The Almighty Hand and move the idiots around so they won't annoy me any more.
Sometimes I wanna use The Hand to make my kids clean their rooms.
I also find myself wondering when a VV is going to come and do MY laundry.

You know you are too addicted if your fridge becomes empty, so you run into the ocean with your clothes on and try to catch a fish with your hands.
If you whip up a special rainbow stew, and somebody asks what is in it, you say, two purple and one red.
If you see a pointed rock you just have to make some spears and weed the garden.
If somebody asks what you want to be when you are older and you say a breeder.
When somebody asks why you are digging up the garden, you reply: "I'm uncovering the ancient mosaic."
When you see somebody in golden clothes you run away as far as you can.
When you go for a swim with your baby, you think that your child will become magical.
When you tell off your son for helping do the laundry.
If you fear having a baby because you will have to start construction on a "new hut" in the backyard.
When you get up to go to the backyard, and someone asks why, you reply: "Nature is calling."
When your husband asks you to pick the mushrooms in the backyard, you say "You know I can't do that."
When you find a seashell on the beach and you already have one just like it, you hand it to your husband and say: "Lets just convert that one into tech points."
If you go to a haunted house in the town, you pick up all the skeletons and bury them outside.
well, thats mine...LOL

LOL! SO FUNNY! Im not a good comedian, but here goes:
-If u see mushrooms in your backyard, you frantically search for a magic hand so that you can drag a random child to pick it up.
-When you go to the grocery store, u marvel at how the red mushrooms are selling for the same price as the brown ones, even though they are worth more food.
-If u see a boulder lying around you immediatly drop everything and stop what your doing to go push it.
-If u see a child w/ gold robes you wonder, 'Why doesnt he have rainbows and stuff over his head?'.
-You tell your family that all the adults in it arent allowed to pee ever and the children must pee outside and not on the toilet. Also no pooping allowed.
-If u have a baby, you spend 120 minutes caring for it then just let it go off on its own and wander around.
-If your berry bush runs out of berries, you run to the nearest table and frantically move your arms around.
-If u find a strange looking plant in your garden, you stand next to it waving your arms, thinking that by doing that u can become a terrifec healer.
-You avoid going into a house with any1 of the opposite gender.
-You imagine that u are about an inch tall and so is everyone else.
-You pray that your 'goddess' will send a blessing to your 'tribe' (family).

-If your fav. pass-time is playing VV or, if u cant, mumbling, "I wish I had my computer with me so I could play w/ my VV's...".
-If the first thing u do when u come home is run to the computer to tell your VV's about your day.
-If any of the above is happening 2 you.

You know you've been playing too long when you should be on total bedrest from a car accident, but you keep getting up to make sure your tribe is doing ok. You know your playing too much when your husband threatens to put you in a 12 step prpgram for computer game addiction.

All true stories here!:
When you have dreams about your village taking over the world!
When you accidentaley call your friend Kali, because you were thinking of your favorite villager, okay? Your friend has no right to be mad!
When you tell your five year old nephew to "Grow up so you can work! Geeze!" And then you absently wonder if you can magically make him grow up by moving the computer clock foward.
When you see a bird eating your strawberries and go, "Well, at least it isn't a flock of parrots..."

You know you've been playing VV too long when
1)Instead of doing work you play the VV soundtrack in music class. 2)When I see any shells I frantically grab the nearest child and drop them on top of it.

this is so funny And an idea I got from Eyexpert... When you realize that you have to do a load of laundry you just stand there and shake you're head saying "No" or "Hu-uh" (the laundry could also be substituted with "when your signifigant other comes over and gives you a big kiss" [/quote]

OOPS!! the above was a qoute from someone earlier in the thread...still trying to figure out how to do qoutes on here Just hit the quote button on the bottom of the post you're trying to quote, then type before or after the [ ] brackets. If you only want to quote part then delete within the bracket. Some of these are hysterical. LOL

Maybe you have been playing to long if.... When you look outside and see that it's raining then check up on your villager to make sure they are working (happend to me this week , was suprised when isola was nice and sunny ) DOH!

hmmm, these are all to funny. I found that addiction also leads to when you cant go to sleep or even find yourself in a bad day situation you turn on the sound to VV and listen to the music to get relaxed.
Or you get up in morning and run to computer and forget to get kids up for school....lol that is my biggest problem.

True story...my husband woke me from talking in my sleep because I was saying 'back in the water, and don't you come out without a fish'! I was dreaming about training villagers! Maybe I should've kept that one to myself! haha

You know you've been playing VV too long, if....
you're afraid to go to sleep or pause your game, because you just learned the collectibles still come on-screen and disappear, even on pause!!!
You keep clicking on the villager that was born the year they came, because she's close to death. You HAVE to make a baby the same year she dies, so you can more easily keep track of how many years the village has been there.
You tell your daughter she needs to do her homework, "to get more Tech Points". (Got a strange look for THAT one!)
You daughter tells you, "It's okay, Mommy, we don't have to go grocery shopping. I can go forage for mushrooms, while you find a berry bush."
You're so involved in you game, because that villager just NEEDS to become a Master Before 18, that your child gets herself up and ready for school, before you even go to bed.
You pick up a child and expect it to hum or say, "WHEEE!!!"
You see someone sitting taking a break and find yourself telling them, "Get back to work. I didn't tell you to sit."

I was making my real children clean their rooms before getting to do anything fun. There was a lot of frustration on both sides, theirs because they didn't want to work and mine because I hate a messy house. About 10 minutes before lunch was ready my daughter came out of her room to say she was hungry. I told her to go back to her chore and I would call her when lunch was ready. As she stomped back down the hall, she shouted to her father "Dad! Mom is treating us like villagers!"
Guess she had seen me talk to my villagers once to often...
"You can exercise AFTER there is food for everyone."
"You can eat AFTER you heal the rest of the village."

How about, you have the same game installed on each of your computers (home, laptop, work) and you spend every spare moment not only playing the games, and personalizing the villagers with names of your favorite TV series characters, but you also compete between the computers to see who can come up with solutions the quickest! ROFL Do we need help, or WHAT???

You've been playing VV too long if... When you see a coconut you say, "Who harvested the coconuts again?" You make up stories about the real world ending and going to Isola with your crush(I do that all the time!) You name villagers after people you know and tell them about what happens. "Amanda you became chief and Corrie your baby is Itzel and the dad is Anthony" sorry got carried away You are reading this thread. ps dd here

If you fake sick to stayat home and play VV all day.
when you take pictures of your villagers, print them, and hang them( in frames) around your house.

Got new ones...
You think pink, purple, blue, etc. are natural hair colors.
You see kids arguing and feel like picking one up and dragging it to the other room.
You broke your mouse last week looking for collectibles. O_O
You've began naming villagers after your faverite anime characters...
...And when they die, you think "They were immortal in the show!!"
You've given up all other forms of entertainment because Isola doesn't have Playstations/Wiis/DS/PSP/TV/iPod etc.
You modded a computer with a super small screencap of Virtual Villagers into the game...
...And when it looks like someone is using it, you throw them in the ocean.
Your convenced gardens are a form of restroom.

When you pick berries and serve them for dinner. When you make your children work at 14. When you get frustrated that you can't just pick people up and put them down. When you dream about your villagers. When you consider your progress at work to be Trainee, Adept or Master. When you seriously consider butting your head through the computer screen and going to Isola.

1.When you start to wonder if that one villager is your long lost sister.
2. When it rains you ask your mum if you can go outside and look for mushrooms.
3. When people start to hum, you look around for the guiding hand.
4. You wonder if Last day of work knows where I sola is and aren't telling us.

This one is when you officially have fallen of the coconut tree.... You start to dream about VV. Also... 1. You wonder if you put a baby in the shiny water he'll turn into the Golden Child. 2. You comment on this thread. 3. You've joined this forum. 4. You've considered dressing up as a villager for Halloween.

-Continued from my quiz, page16 in this thread, post #222741- 6. Do you insist on wearing the same outfit every day? Maybe you have a lot of outfits that are exactly the same? (If you can't afford a new outfit but would love to have one, say "No".) a) Yes b) No 7. What does your home look like? a) It's a hut (I built it myself). b) It's an apartment/a house. 8. Does noni taste good? Noni is a fruit found in VV5! a) Yes, I eat it all the time b) What's that?! 9. KIDS: How old do you want to start working? ADULTS: When did you start working? a) 14 or younger b) After graduating from high school/college 10. You see a mushroom on the ground, what would you do? a) Pick it up & eat it b) Leave it alone 11. What's your all time favorite game? a) Actually I have 5 favorite games... VV1, VV2, VV3, VV4, VV5! b) I have no time for games!(Me: Then why are you even looking at this forum?!) 12. Would you recommend VV to other people? a) PEOPLE?! The only people I see are my villagers!!! b) I guess so Give yourself 1 point for each “a” and 2 points for each “b”. Add up your total points, from Q1-12. 12-14: Yes, you're DEFINITELY addicted . You're probably one of those people who check their village every 10 minutes(or less) . 15-21: You know how to maintain a good balance between virtual village life and real life, that's good! 22-24: It seems you haven't even played VV before!:8 So what are you doing here on this thread? ~the end(this time i'm being serious!)

You say, "Just off to feed my tribe, erm, I mean cat"
You set up a table and call yourself a master scientist.
You nearly call your baby son Seven.
You stay up until 3 in the morning talking to a computer screen full of villagers.
You bring up VV in every conversation.

The last post in this thread was almost 3 years ago, but... You realize that you could've been an adept builder/farmer/scientist at your age, and you get annoyed that the real world doesn't actually trust people your age to do this work. You've deliberately made bad choices with the island events because you know that you're experienced enough to turn any bad situation around. And you still feel guilty when you accidentally kill a villager... or even the whole tribe You've "time traveled" out of impatience so many times that you're actually bored of it and decide to play normally. Or is that just me?
