#1150 You like the swordfighting in Thief so much you're now an expert with swordfighting with the blackjack. Just yesterday you managed to kill three Haunts (simultaneous) only with the blackjack without losing any health.

#1151 You're now researching whether or not it's possible to complete the whole game only using your sword to do things... kill all guards... "kill" all doors... what's this? A metal door? You give up.

#1152 You try again and find a solution to the metal door problem (only using your sword).

#1153 You're extremely irritated that it's not possible to kill humans at Expert... so you load up DromEd and replaces all the human guards in the game with Haunts.

#1154 You're now thinking to start sub-versions of this thread.... "1000 clues that you have been using the sword too much in Thief"....

#1155 You're now beginning to wonder why the game is called Thief when it replaces real life so good it could be called reality.

#1156 You just killed all your neighbours with a homemade blackjack when you found out that the Thief 2 demo is on 130 megs... some days later the whole population of your town is dead. You decide this doesn't matter at all since Thief is the *real* reality. And real life is just a simple game.

#1157 Your brother beside you is completely out of his mind because you're actually reading through all the messages in this thread. (darn it, I used ca. 3 hours reading through all this)

#1158 Your boss has kicked you out of your job because you intimidate all your co-workers too much with your threats about decapitating them with your sword and robbing everything they have.

#1159 Your girlfriend has broken up with you when she got to know who the "Professional Thief Has Robbed All Houses In New York" mentioned in the TV news is.

#1160 You go to rehabilitation in hope to get better, but you only manage to get your therapist begin speaking like a Hammerite "Thou art a truly weird man, Mr Tzar... but dost thou knoweth what? I think I'm in love with thee".

#1161 You've watched the movie Matrix a thousand times, and you get more and more pissed off because they didn't play any Thief game in the Matrix world.

#1162 You've finally gotten over Viktoria... but now you're afraid of admitting that you've fallen in love with Lytha.

#1163 And all the females who say they like Thief.

#1164 After jumping, running on loud ground, and shooting noisemaker arrows people go to you and say "Can't you not just say "hi" as a normal person to get attention??"

Inspired by 1162:

1169: You check the profiles of everyone in this entire forum desperately trying to find a GF who likes Thief.

1170: Not a one of them will return your e-mails so you take out an ad in the personals section of the newspaper, listing only that she must "play Thief: the Dark Project."

1171: You took the Thief manual to Kinko's and got them to make a huge blowup of the cover so you can put it on your wall.

1172: All of your online identities and passwords are Thief related.

1173: You meticulously check your postings for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors, worried that they might be seen as blasphemy towards the game.

1174: You actually buy the Logitech Force Feedback Mouse to see if it enhances the game.

1175: You send numerous e-mails to movie studios, trying to convince them that a Thief movie is a bankable project.

1176: You've memorized the game so well that you can use DromEd to recreate the entire game perfectly. (This might have been used already)

1177: You make a Thief TC for Heretic 2 to see what it would be like in 3rd person.

1178: Thief reminds you about a Fafhrd & Grey Mouser story by Fritz Leiber you read, so you start digging around everywhere for more of those (true).

1179: Once you have glued the CD drive shut b/c you think you'll never need to take the game out you suffer a mental breakdown after realizing you won't be able to play Thief 2.

1180: You recreate Thief using the Thief 2 editor to see what the original looks like with the (slightly) newer graphics.

1181: Vice versa.

1185: You burn the music tracks onto a CDR to have a homemade soundtrack.

1186: You go to other forums where console gamers hang out and gleefully slam them because they nothing that compares to Thief.

1187: You recreate the Thief 2 demo with DromEd so it won't be in the Alpha stage anymore.

NOT NUMBER n

I do use "Taffer", and not because any of you think it's addictive (no offense, I hope! http://www.ttlg.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif ) but because I found out why exactly I want to use it...I can't disclose that.
