111 You have the game installed on your game system at home, your work system at work, and your laptop so you can play on the trip between.

112. You become obsessed with Star Trek and Space Empires, you try to get involved in every Scifi mod that includes trek and try to implement ridiculous ideas such as a trasporter that can move cargo and population from one square (sector) away from the target.

One of the most ridiculous ideas I've ever made.

113. after playing many games with SE4 standard races, you download whatever 3D programs such as Moray, DOGA, and others and use them to create your own army of light.

114 If after playing 3000 games, and you still haven't finished a game, you are most defently addicted to SEIV.

115 If you recieve 20 emails a day, and they are all from PBW games.

116 You have specified in your will that you want to be burried with your SEIV Gold disk and mouse pad.

117 You attempt to place troops on your wife or girl friend to fend off open rebellion.

118 You have installed a bucket to the bottom of your chair and moved the frige next to your PC desk.

If the first thing you do in the moring, after waking up isn't bathroom, coffee or the paper. But instead, you stumble to the computer to click you next turn of SEIV!

124. When you keep taking No-Doz to stay awake for the 19th consecutive day of gameplay because you just have to do each race in a quick start at least once.

125. When you are so obsessed with the Maximum Turn Range Check Error that you spend days clicking "End Turn" with yur finger stuck on the "Y" key so that you can send Malfador a bug report when you finally get to turn 9999.9 and save it before ending turn and getting that error.(Yes, I actually have several savegames that I am working on getting up to turn 9999.9 - I've finally gotten to turn 4563.2 on one of those....)
