Editing - A drug?

I'm sorry if you think this is slightly pointless,

but does anyone else find editing almost addictive?

Ever since i started editing, it's almost been impossible for me to start a new game without editing.

Just thought i'd like to share my views

I never get past 2 or 3 months of a season without thinking of another db to create, mostly enspired by this forum.

I haven't played a game in 3 weeks as everytime I come on I come on to edit!!!!

Ya that happens me too...

but I'm doing great in my current game and don't want to stop.

I have changed the database alot since I started playing my current game

yeah i go through periods where all i do is create a new db, holiday overnight to make sure it works then build a new one!!

i think i've got about 20 to choose from at the moment, not counting those i've deleted over time!

Set yourself a rehab program- start a new game and dont touch the editors till the end of season one. Then in the next game, at the end of season two.

God yes, absolutely.

Yeah, I get so far into a game and then I think - what if? What if I started with a completely new team that I have added to the database...

yes mate! for me too it's a drug!

I do that aaalll the time. I just think, oh I want Dani Alves, Silva, etc. in the same team at the start. Or , I want myself in the team!

I do it all the time too. i have to have the right managers in charge of the clubs the day i start a game that are there IRL on that same day. i think its a form of OCD.

For me it isnt a drug, ive always liked my projects, Ive made golf courses for tiger woods series, ive skinned planes for racing and officiated races on IL2 forgotten battles and I have made databases for this series. Without little projects to tinker with I get bored. Yes ive always got a golf swing to be tinkering with but somehow sitting infront of my PC for hours shaping polygons into golf holes, using G.I.M.P. to edit 2D skins or setting up new nations in a database editor relaxes me. I spent many consecutive hours doing golf courses, was tedius in one way, exciting in another! I think all are like that, when you get to the finished product you feel proud to have made something realistic but with your own style and twist.

Next for me? Well if EA pull their finger out and make courses easier to work with I will go back to course design, but maybe that was easier when I was unemployed! I spent 3 months on them as it was! So maybe now doing a Hampshire as a nation database, sound good?
