Addicted

OMG, I'm addicted. TOTALLY addicted. I was invited by a 'good' friend and accepted cuz he said I only needed to accept the invitation but didn't really have to do anything after that. So, I did!
Man was that a bad move. Now I'm addicted. It took awhile before I tried it but when I did, I immediately got hooked. MAFIA WARS, that's what I'm talking about. Now I can't stop. I was playing some other games on Facebook as well before MW but now all of them are taking a back seat from MW. I used to log in to FB probably once or twice a week now I log in daily. This is not the first time. It was the same with the Blood games (for those who Facebooked since last year you'd know). I'm pretty sure the Blood games led Facebook to make some changes on the rules for game apps on FB (like limiting max 'friends' in game tasks/quests/jobs or whatever they're called in the games). Come to think about it, it may also be the reason that FB lagged so much when the Blood games were so 'hot'.
How far have I got in MW is still nothing much to shout about. I'm 70th in my family and at lvl 38... the top guy in my family is like lvl 300++ how'd he get to that lvl??? Doesn't he have anything else to do? Sadly, this is another reason that's gripping me to the game.
It's almost like an online RPG I guess. In the sense that players help each other out with jobs and collections and stuffs (for the record I'm not and online MPRPG player if that's the right acronym for it :p).
Whoa, a scary thought just came across my mind. The next super power in the world would be in control of the internet... and it may not even be a physical country?!? Something to explore next....
