    Smokers only !

    This is my last, for time being, and probably most stupid question but for those who smoke (tobacco) and I know you should not smoke around a computer, but those who do, do you find you smoke more when playing certain games ? Cheers. DD.

    I couldn't play Ultima Online when I was out of smokes. But, nowadays, I have to find DM servers in SoF that don't force instant respawns. That way, I can take smoke/toke breaks.

    We bought Unreal Tournament yesterday. It has induced chain smoking on my part while I tweak with the settings and learn the console. And watching bots play is a great time to feed the nicotine demons.

    I agree with you, but it's not that easy, seems as if I'm as hooked on these things as I am on playing games. Cheers. DD.

    I quit about 6 months ago after smoking for 17 years. I miss it when playing intense games like UT and SoF.

    smoking is bad!

    didn't you guys ever watch the video in health class about ppl that chew and smoke tobacco. they get stuff that's like callous (thick skin, don't know how to spell it) on the inside of their mouth. and it's all white and puffy and looks like coral. *shudder*

    You're right, smoking is bad for you and I'm gonna quit just as soon as I get through SoF.
    Cheers. DD.
