...I have no idea what's going on right now, so I answered Kathleen. I don't think this deserves a goddamnit or brussels.

I am quickly becoming a husk of a human being. This game is so goooood.

If I sprout wings, someone call an ambulance.

(Man, I need to write a sketch where a group of friends one by one become hooked on Pocket Planes, until finally they all end up thinking they're pilots and air traffic controllers and mumble about how they need to ship more rakes to Prague.

Also the battery has died on my iPod touch so I can't play anymore until I get home. XD

Don't forget to set your Flight Crew to SKY CHAIRS

Pocket Planes is teaching me the geography of Germany. WHODA THUNKIT? I kind of wish I had picked Southeast Africa now.

Yeah neither did mine. I figure maybe it'll work when they do a refresh of the leaderboards. I don't know.

But SKY CHAIRS! :D

And apparently AMSTERDAM? I didn't mean to buy Amsterdam! I accidentally clicked Yes. Oh well. AMSTERDAM.

madAlric: Kathleen tweeted Sky SPACE Chairs, so I assume it's got a space in it. That's what I'm going with for now.

the random coins floating through the air are somewhat disconcerting.

Also, I started in South America.

I really think I need to quit playing this game. I don't think it's healthy how addictive it is. My life is going to lay in ruins if I play much more.

I deleted it. I deleted my beautiful level seven Western European empire, because it was growing on my brain and I could feel myself getting addicted. Every few minutes, my brain would go "POCKET PLANES?!" It was scary.

Maybe some day when I have a week off or something I'll download it and play the shit out of it. But for right now... I can't.

I miss it. I loved it. It was so fun. But it's bad for me. I can't.

Prague. Bern. Munich. Berlin.

Brussels.

The withdrawl pangs have been hitting roughly every hour. I miss it!

But every time I redownload an try to play again, I get sad that I no longer have my beautiful fleet of planes (named after famous classical composers) that I stop playing again.

Mission accomplished? I guess?

I'm starting to wonder if I'm spending more time thinking about not playing it than I was actually spending playing it.

I like that you've redownloaded it more than once.

I've set my Flight Crew to SKY CHAIRS, but it doesn't seem to have had much effect. It just tells me that Rank will update shortly. Did they launch with a half-implemented feature?

I have a feeling the answer is yes, or it only refreshes when an event is over. Right now it seems something is going on in Casablanca.

Something like seventeen times.

I can't stop thinking about it. It's got its teeth in. I don't think I'm going to be able to quit cold turkey. I'm going to have to learn to live with it and play a reasonable amount of time.

Or I will go insane, convinced that I am an airplane flying from Vienna to Brussels, filled with Raspberries and Swords.

I have developed A SYSTEM. I check Pocket Planes, then I read a chapter of Game of Thrones. Rinse and repeat. All day.

This might not be as effective when you are at work.
