I find it troubling how much I want to upvote you just beause you're quoting SMAC.

I finally wikipediaed this and see you are talking about a Sid Meier video game. I played Civilization once for about an hour (where I was amazed when my 10 year old consultant on the game told me I was an idiot for going democratic, that I would have had a much better military if I'd gone communist and then built a statue of liberty, or something like that). I have spent countless hours on Railroad Tycoon back before Steve Jobs got fired.

Do I want to get SMAC and risk ruining my life? Perhaps have myself lashed to a mast before I try it?

Is SMAC addictive?

I recently rediscovered it and realized how many quotes fit into LW memes. And apparently there was an expansion too. I never knew that until about a month ago.
