Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "Until I pointed it out, my other half use to hang out the washing making sure that both pegs were the same colour. Now she goes out of her way to make sure they never match." Tell us about bizarre rituals, habits and OCD-like behaviour.

Arnie of the Terminators
My greatest game of Civ ever lasted a whole 27 hours after I conquered the world, and Arnie, that great god of the Mongols, proceeded to seed the entire world with as many cities as possible. I kept one last enemy city, which I pointedly refused to wipe out (though I did rather cruelly build a city in each of the ajoining 8 squares just so they wouldn't get uppity).
Eventually when it was decided enough was enough, and there really wasn't any other terrain worth a cat pissing on, the game was duly ended, and my Amiga had a thousand fits trying to calculate the score..... and crashed. Reboot, reload, end game, crash. Reboot, reload, end game, crash. Reboot, reload, end game, crash. and so on.
It took until about the 15th attempt until it finally managed without burning out (the evil little bastard realised it was out-classed by a master OCD obsessive you see and gave up).
Best score ever, and despite well over half of the game basically being played without any enemy on the map at all, I still despise any such game as Sim City as without an opposition there is no point.
I wish I had this much time to waste now.

With Sim City
Once you can set everything up to be making a net gain on the taxes etc, you can save the game and load it up just before you go on holiday for 2 weeks just to see how much cash you can make before you get home.
Then you spend it all on airports or something and then send in Godzilla.
