Astil Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 To find the answer to life's most puzzling riddles. When will Remmy Skye get that huge singles push? When will Burchill finally topple Raven?

Dragonmack Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 They are for 1. Getting more emotionally involved in your game and your gameworld 2. Sharing your writing and booking 'brilliance' with others. 3. Soliciting the praise and approval of your peers. 4. Providing a forum for your frustrations when you don't get the praise and approval. ;) 5. Becoming part of the community, and if you are really good or really popular, in some minute ways, influencing the future of the game and the cornellverse. 6. Because the next really good game hasn't come out yet to suck up your time, so you have nothing better to do than haunt these boards, and since you are here, you might as well write a diary. :p 1 and 2 are the most important reasons for me, although the others do surface occasionally. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And really, it's mostly about number 1 for me. I have trouble sticking with a game, if I don't spend some time writing bits and pieces about the characters.

Sure I'm single, but plenty of people here have girlfriends, or are married even! And still have time to make mods, write diaries, and play Mafiascum. I have to agree with DWW about becomingmore involved with the game. Before taking over the GDMMA diary, I wasn't really into playing WMMA much, now I love seeing what happens with the roster. Having it interactive helps a lot, too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, she is 95% of the comments on my dynasty. That's true love, pretending to give a **** about something you have no idea about because it makes the other one happy :).

I'm doing a diary for the sole reason, that I want to get immersed in my game, and everytime I try to share my great booking ideas with my friends or family, well, I think you all know how well that works...
