    Seriously, don't touch this game, otherwise say goodbye to your life and sleep.

    Just got three free Cradle of Civilisation map packs - Asia, Americas and Europe.

    I'm doomed.

    was just at a busy chinese restaurant this saturday and they made us share tables with some high school seniors. One of them was complaining how she had to stay up until 3am because of AP classes and papers. And i think to myself the only reason i lose sleep during HS and college, was from starcraft and playing too much MMO.
