Yeah, I hardly ever read the manual to play a game. When I come home with a new game I just bought, I'm so eager to play that I don't want to waste time reading. I just start doing stuff, and I only reluctantly go to the manual if I'm stuck and I'm forced to admit that I have no clue how to play. Then I just read the bare minimum to figure out how to get to the next step, and then immediately go back to the game and start doing more stuff.

Once I'm more or less familiar with how to play, then I actually feel like going through the entire manual and reading up on things I may have missed.

Well, I'm usually that way too. But when you don't have a manual in your hand to refer to, but instead have one on the disk that you're supposed to print out, that's what really irks me. So I printed out the manual yesterday in the hope that it will help me figure this game out. Unfortunately, I just didn't get the chance to read it or try the game again. And with 24 on tonight, I may not get to it again until Wednesday.
