When playing a highly addictive game in your free time...

1. My cat Misha choosing an inappropriate moment to stroll streakily past the monitor; pausing with his tail in the air. His worst habit used to be going behind the tower itself and finding a way to somehow dislodge a cable or two in the attempt to get my attention.

2. Responsibility laden text-messages. Nothing rips one from a pleasant trip into unreality faster than a nagging impigning reality itself.

3. Running out of snack supplies. Especially in summertime. These things must be planned out…

4. Other irritating human beings. In the immortal words of Kagain "I don't want to talk!"

Lately its being in physical pain and discomfort. Makes it hard to find the enthusiasm to play. Noises from outside that break my meditation also don't help. Worrying about work is another.

1. Kids
2. Kids
3. Kids

All of the others a distant 4th place. My play time is limited to after 9.30pm ish when everyone is sleeping and when chores are done. Then I'm usually too tired to game more than 1 or mayyybe 2 hours tops.

Huh, the kids aren't much of a problem to me. The wife though…

Only 1, really. Having to go to work. Working on that one, though.
