Hi. Here's a few: You've been playing to much when:

1. You have a tendency to reach for the nearest deck of playing cards whenever you see a spider.

2. You go to the zoo you try and to accept a quest from an elephant.

3. You attack your neigbor's cat and try to turn it in to the police for robbery.

4. You ask if you need to buy back your training points when transfering to a new school.

5. You say lol out loud. (guilty as charged :P )

6. You gather branches from a local park and try to make a crafting station out of them.

7. You're dissapointed when your fish tank doesn't contain any Water-matons or Celestians.

8. You go to England and exclaim: "Where did all the dogs go?"

9. You search for hidden treasure rooms at the Taj Majal.

10. You ask a friend which boss dropped his movie poster.

Now, I gotta run. My Fierce Hound is barking, I think there's someone at the Spiral Door, lol.

isnt anyone worrying about your eyes! if you play w101 too much its too much screen time! playing for 24 hours is not a good idea. playing w101 too much you will ruin your vision! you shouldnt have that much screen time. i would say lowering the 24 hours of w101 gameplay to 2 hours -22 hours.

I'm a level 61 Diviner and I've done the following that prove I play to much:

Drawn a storm school symbol on an eraser

Convinced 3 out 4 family members to play

Logged on with username rememberer so many times I forgot my username

E-mailed my friend who plays using his wizard name

Signed off an E-mail with my wizard name

Maxed out my level on test realm and got mad when it stopped :x

Made a PowerPoint of tips on Storm Magic

Replayed every dungeon in Krokotopia thrice (I don't get XP anymore :()

Used my wizard's last name as a username for every online game I've played after making my Wizard101 account (I still play, though)

Took a survey just to get free crowns

You know you've been playing to much when:

you try to make your dog dance so he can level and get a spell

you scream when you see a bald teacher wearing a yellow coat

you get mad at somebody in real life, and try to cast imp or gnomes on them

you think you can control the weather when it rains

and last:

you see people everywhere as short, multicolored wizards.

thats all i have for now lol

Well, at random times during the day, I often hear the sound when you complete a quest. That's why I play with the sound off now.

4. You attempt to stop a war by standing in the middle of the battle field, holding up a card, and saying! "Go, Blinding Light! Ha, you're now stunned for 1 round!".

5. You never watch Star Wars because your afraid Chewbacca will jump at you and deal 640 life damage to you and your friends.

6. You ask a taxi driver where he got his mount

That's all for now :P

You know you have played w101 to much when you call it w101 (Guilty)
You have drawn pictures of creatures for no reason and didnt stop until they were perfect. Then you kept them. (Guilty)
You want w101 to be real. (once again guilty)
You get mad at someone and say/think, "you're going to regret that when my humongofrog barfs all over you!" (NOT guilty thank godness)
You would rather play w101 than do ANYTHING (and i mean anything) ELSE( guilty)
When you have considered asking your dad (who is a football coach) to play (sorry but guilty)

But one good thing. Having open/text chat has improved my typing by 80% (fastness wise, not home row or anything)
Hope you enjoyed hearing some of my epic FIZZLES (not fails)!

1. When your friend asks you if you want to go shopping to the mall and you say "I'm broke. I need to sell things so i can go get some gold."
2. Say to your really mean teacher: "AH! ITS MALISTARE!".
3. Ask your teacher if you can be excused so you can go do some quest in GH.
4. You see some rocks on the ground, go pick it up and throw it at your sister and pause for 5 seconds then yell STONE!!!!!! LETS GO SELL IT AT THE BAZAAR!

http://diaryofawizard.com/ has a wonderful post from Postcards from the Spiral about the Top 10 Ways You Know You’ve Been Playing Wizard101 Too Much

Here's three - to read the rest, follow the link below.

10. You’ve convinced your child/parent/significant other to create their own account so that you can battle together.

9. You’ve purchased a new computer so that people in your house can play together or play online at the same time.

8. You’ve set up a wireless network, after procrastinating for at least five years, so that people in your house can play at the same time.

http://diaryofawizard.com/

The only one I would add would be you see a stick on the ground and think -ooh! Mistwood!

Thank you both for the article and we encourage our players to list their own below!


I already know I play wizards too much..

I have a couple more
1. when you start talking about w101 and your friends' eyes just glaze over/they walk away
2. you go home, grab a snack, and disappear until dinner
3. your teacher does a notebook check and sees all your fails of trying to draw the school symbols (guilty... )
4. you always stick to the sidewalk, even when theres nothing in sight
5. This one is more personal but I have a Tawny Ram mount and when I'm horseback riding i think to myself- Man, Tawnay (I named my ram o. O) would be such a smoother ride!
