Computer games
I've been playing OManager for a few months now. If you're not familiar with it, OManager is a computer game where you manage a team of orienteers by assigning training, picking relay teams, and buying/selling runners.
I signed up for the game because I was curious about how it worked. I'm in my second season. As I've played, I've begun to get more interested in it. I think the moment I realized I was hooked was when one of my runners got hurt...and I felt real disappointment. A line of text on my computer screen, a string of numbers, and a bit of text telling me that the line of text was "injured." And, it bugged me. Strange.
