You know you are addicted to Mafia Wars…

 

We at Mistyfied recently lost an excellent admin, and the game of Mafia Wars lost another player. No, Marlena didn't die; she joined millions of other players in quitting her Mafia Wars habit. And sadly, it seems that she means to stick by it. This is a final Mafia Wars transmission from our Dr. Wurst.

• when your job advisor from your local (un)employment service tells you they can’t add you to a real mafia
• when that same guy asks you to amend your CV because apparently ‘Mafia Wars player’ doesn’t look good as your current work experience and also advises you to remove ‘Brawler’ & ‘Link-A-Nator’ from your computing knowledge

• when you are at a friend’s party & you keep glancing at their computer, eager to use it because you know, you have to collect your properties NOW before everyone steals your Precious Stones because you forgot to activate your Guardian in Brazil!
• when you ask your friend at their party to use ‘quickly’ their computer to ‘check something’ on Facebook
• when you suddenly realise it’s daylight & you’re still sitting in front of your friend’s computer while everyone else passed out or left the party.
• when you are not allowed to use your friend’s computer on their party again because they discovered ‘Brawler’ in their bookmarks & you secretly hope they’ll never notice that little monkey face icons on their browser which you forgot to delete
• when you bring your own laptop to your friend’s party & ask for their wifi code
• when your friends don’t invite you to their parties anymore because they think you are a geek
• when you don’t want to go to those stupid parties anymore because you think your friends are ignorant selfish bastards for refusing to give you their wifi code
• when you wish you could afford an iPhone or Blackberry to be able to play MW everywhere, even on the toilet!
• when you go only on holidays where you know for sure they have internet access
• when you have to wear sunglasses to weapon yourself against this fierce daylight to pop quickly outside for some shopping because it’s too early for pizza delivery (only during a long brawler run in LV of course)
• when ‘Brawler runs’ also become your toilet & fridge runs
• when you drink your coffee only from your MW mug
• when your friends & family have to address you by your MW name  to catch your attention
• when you are sending virtual death threats to operation slackers
• when you are late for everything in order to do those last clicks on MW (e.g. appointments, dates, work, weddings, Christianising, burials etc…)
