    What sacrifices have you made and lengths have you gone to for this game?

    When I get 9 out of 10 in events, on the last day I set an alarm to wake myself up every single hour of the night (it usually still doesn't get me the tenth which is annoying).
    I've turned down invites from friends to go clubbing because I know if I did I'd be robbed but further, it would throw my things out of sync.
    I've cancelled a date with a girl because my upscale would have had to be collected at that particular time.
    I have deprived myself of sleep in order to collect from buildings due to paranoia of the threat posed by a particular cold mafia member.
    I have refused to go out with my family so that I could play crime city, open event boxes, collect from buildings, keep everything in sync and keep up personal wars against players to save face.
    I've basically given up all my time, almost continuously for the entire day, for the past month solely to play this game. Leaving it behind only to go to work and only for the bare minimum of sleep when no event was on.

    Wow.. you seem to be very dedicated to this game. I set alarms in the middle of the night to collect buildings and I collect during work. I'm not setting my alarm every hour when there is an event.

    This doesn't sound like a very balanced approach to the game.

    Remember, there is no winner.

    Besides getting moderate anger from my girlfriend and nearly getting my phone confiscated at work I'm controlling my addiction reasonably well. There's no way I'll sacrifice sleep over this game although i do wake up a bit earlier to collect the virtual dough. Who knows? One day I'll probably be at a funeral opening event boxes LOL.

    I've done every single one of those except the date with the girl thing. I'm married and my wife loves crime city too, so I'm all set in that dept. all the way around. :-)

    I use a wifi only iPad so can't leave home if I want to play crime city, and I'm somewhat addicted to crime city. Carrying an iPad around outside is undesirable because it's unweildly, I don't want to break it and relying on finding and connecting to wifi hotspots is unreliable at best.
