You know you are addicted to Arm when ...

[Cutthroat]

You have a text-based nightmare about 2 other characters with the same sdesc as your character killing it.

Thankfully that was a short nightmare

Wide-eyed, the tall, muscular man cowers in the center of the alley, his entire body trembling with fear.

When you wake up at 3am because you can't remember if you logged out of the game.
Go and check the computer only to find that your PC is dehydrated and starving at -8 hp and dies moments later. You are upset of course but go back to bed.

You wake up at 5am and decide to put in a new app before work, log in and cannot find the create new char option and it takes a full five minutes for you to realize that you had dreamed the death.

Nothing else compares and you (albeit fleetingly) wonder if you can breastfeed and roleplay at the same time.

Your character gets an echo of having a headache, and you spend 10 minutes staring at your computer wondering if that's the same instant your RL headache got started.

Yeah, I probably do this in half the emails I write staff... i probably send half those without noticing it until it's too late.

I was writing a telnet chat app last night. Used my Arm username as the username to log into it, then immediately sent my lecturer my Armageddon password

When you chant spells to yourself, just to see what happens.

When you say to your self "it's just a game," Then you realize no.... it's not.

[Comrade Canadia]

After years of not caring about the game despite a few failed attempts to get back in... you find yourself staying up three hours past when you should have gone to sleep on a work night. And don't care.

[Zoltan]

... when you look at the clock and go "It's 4 AM?!"

[FantasyWriter]

When you look up at the clock and have to quickly find an outside window to stare, in disbelief, at the rising sun.

Uh... when you realize you have flipped over your hourglass for the millionth time in a row without logging out of arm.

And you've barely aged one year. And your character was created with a month already on her.

Usually more.

[Simple]

when...... it's 06:30 GMT and you are still playing because your circadian rhythm is upside down from finishing nights a week ago.

[FantasyWriter]

Since i got laid off, I have been playing an insane amount of hours.

A normal person only needs 2-4 hours of sleep a day. Pfft.
