I decided it was time to quit. At least 10 times. Each time I uninstalled Dota, I ended up reinstalling it a couple days later saying to myself "I'll only play for a bit". It was like going through withdrawal.

Then the day I ACTUALLY quit, that following term was my best ever. Pulled out 2 A's in my classes. I havn't looked back since

God damn I was an addict
not going to lie, out of every game I have played (heck even World of warcraft.. I had 6k GS when it was maxed around there) DotA was THE MOST addicting game EVER! Counter strike and maple story at it's prime did not give the addiction. Playing DotA ALL NIGHT and pulling an all nighter is considered normal back in the days.

edit: I see revscene mostly consists of casual gamers. Anyone played anything competitively?
