It sounds very attention-intensive. Gotta move this, gotta get that, gotta put this over here, gotta keep these people from doing something bad, etc. And if you leave it alone too long things get messy. No thanks. I'll stick to Myst and its sequels. Still addictive and attention-intensive, but you can solve things at your own pace and disaster does not ensue if you fail to play for X amount of time.

I have no idea what Ikariam is. It's probably better that I don't. Although from what you've been saying it soulds a lot like Civilization and those kinds of games and I've always detested those.
From the sounds of it this laziness is a good thing and I'd be totally addicted to it if I did play -- except I like games that you can walk away from Virtual Villagers 1 and 2 is just ADDICTIVE for me. I need to stay away ::Twitch::
AdrianneIf I never reply to something you said to me, it doesn't mean I'm ignoring you, it means I'm lazy and the thread moves too fast.

It's all explained here. Well, one part anyhow

I have a bunch of co-workers playing this game called *Second-Life*.... I looked over the site...but am not to sure I have the time, the energy OR the inclination to get involved in it...I KNOW I don't want to get into the games DJF et al are into....It seems extremely time consuming when I read all the LJs and what is going on
Hats...You will always be an *Original* in my book
Shadow... no one...and I mean no one is foolish enough to try to pass themselves off as you ...they wouldn't have the stomach to just strike fear the way you doLife is short, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And live out loud with no regrets..
