526) Your mission backup habits include a digital camera, PDA, MP3 player or another storage device not intended for general files.
527) You finally realize that you are not more creative when drunk or stoned.

528: When you try to frob food from across the kitchen, only to realize that it must not be frobbable - I mean you have to pick it up.
529: When you try to optimize your room instead of cleaning it.
530: When someone turns on your room light and you say, "Hey, turn lightbright off."

532: When you get to work at 5 in the morning, look inside the restaurant from one of the millions of unfrobbable windows (I work at McDonald's....pity me), see all the lights off except for a very select few.....and think of how great it would be to start a mission off that way.

533: When you are not amazed that we are halfway there.
534: When you think you have a life outside of your girlfriend, but realise it's just DromEd.
535: When you are not ashamed of that fact.
536: And have just come from a weekend of DromEdding, all day, non-stop, just to post questions in the forum.
537: And the only reason not to DromEd the whole weekend was on the other side of the world on a vacation in Europe. (ie. the aforementioned girlfriend).

538: DromEd is actually open as you make this post, because you were still in the middle of making an FM.

539: When your mission crashes and you still refuse to give up
540: When your mission crashes and you realize you can make a whole new series out of the crashed mission
541: When each month you toss another mission into the "TO DO Mission In-box"...
542: When you realize that making 16 new missions isn't enough...
543: When you dream about a mission fix then wake-up, try it, and it works!
544: When you Volunteer for cloning thinking you it would allow you to build faster
545: When you get mad at movies like Lord of the Ring, because DROMED would never let you make terrain as complicated or "large" as those featured...

546: When you dream about a mission fix then wake-up, try it, and it doesn't work, so you go back to sleep just in case another mission fix crops up in your dreams.

Wow, this thread is exactly one year old today. So in the spirit of DromEd, here are some more clues...
547. You have the rest of the night to study for your exam. Realizing that nighttime always lasts forever, you conclude there's no need to study for any exam.
548. You believe sight and sound are the only human senses.
549. Before remodeling your house, you ask the architect if the foundation is weak, do you wail and nash your teeth?
550. You take astronomy for extra credit, and ask the TA if the universe is entirely solid does that mean air brushes comprise all open spaces?
551. Your doctor tells you that you must rest to regain your health. You scoff at her and say, "Rest only increase mission time. Give me a health potion or magic fruit."
552. "Real world" to you means being in Thief (or DromEd). Everything else is virtual.
553. Your astrology guide states: "If you fail today, go back and reload your last saved mission."
554. When you see a shadow in the darkness you shout: "What is that?! Do my eyes show me the right?" Then after pausing briefly, you recite in almost poetic cadance, "No one walks here now. 'Twas but the wind on the torches."
555. You don't believe in rain or snow, hot or cold. There is only perfect weather all the time.
556. When searching for the source of an unusual noise, you examine the exact same places several times before giving up and returning to your regular patrol route.
557. After quitting Thief for the day (yes it happens), you can't figure out why there is no longer the looped background music playing everywhere you go.
558. In order to sleep at night, you must fire up an FM and find a suitable bedroom to hide in. You like to fall sleep next to the computer with your headphones on so that it feels like you are still in the game (I am guilty of this!)
559. When you have any problems in life, you come to the TTLG forums to seek "mission advice."
560. You finally have a beautiful girlfriend. But as soon as your friends commend you saying, "Well, she's definitely a keeper, you break off the relationship immediately because you no longer associate with the Keepers."
561. Before you go to bed, you pray to the Master Builder, asking him to soon grant you victory.
562. When DromEd crashes you use the Trickster's name in vain.
563. Whenever you start a new project, the first thing you always say is (in Garrett speak) "Heeere we gooo."
564. Whenever you see people drunk at a bar the first thought that flashes in your mind is Benny.
565. You wonder how your friends can be so active if they are on vacation across country. After all, the default AI efficiency settings don't allow for it.
566. You actually dream about Thief (or DromEd) and nothing else.
567. You forget that there are actually other computer games besides the Thief series.
568. When your dad asks if you'd like to play a relaxing game of blackjack with his friends from work, you say, "No, I've already blackjacked enough people for tonight."
569. When schoolmates call you names, your response is "Art thou feared to face me man to man?"
570. If you take pride in having a bigger hammer than anyone else on your block.
