Commentary: The delicate balance between real life and GEWar
So, one of these days, after hours of jewelling, you're going to realize that you're fat, single, unemployed, repulsive, and 40. here are a few tips for maintaining your status as a productive human being.
1. Stay Fit. get a laptop and continue your assault on ODA from a treadmill, so you don't end up with diabetes. consider getting a full night's sleep, or setting an alarm clock instead of staying up until 4:13 AM because that's when the radiation drops. Instead of spending your time flaming an alliance after they zeroed you, take a stress-relief jog. Where excersize is something that you have to keep doing in order to keep fit enough to keep doing it, If all you do is play GEWar, eventually it'll be all you're able to do. and then you'll choke on a hot pocket and die. rough way to go.
2. Get a girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife. Or have a good reason to not have one. for example, I don't because women are expensive and I'm 17 and broke. What's your excuse?
3. Get a job. Following this guideline, you'll at least have enough money to pay your annual Donator status. You could even get a job where you use a computer and spend your breaks on GEWar.
4. Play GEWar creatively. save up some bucks (see guideline 3) and go to europe or america with that laptop from guideline 1. there are internet cafes everywhere and you can play GEWar while having a great time. Think of it as visiting the world you're simultaneously conquering.
The list could go on, but there are a few ideas to get you started. have fun.

Couple modifications/additions:
2a. Teach your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife to jewel. This way you get to spend "quality time" with him/her while you play jewel.
2b. Similary to 2a - Have kids and train them to do the same.
For Step 3. I recommend getting a job from home. That way you don't even need to wait until a break to play GEWar... You can play all day, and on your breaks from THAT, you can get some work done.

Well on my way. I have 6 boys, and the younger four are just getting old enough to play on the computer. My 8 year old loves playing on GE... he has already picked out where he wants his home base when he is old enough for GEWar.
