I'm an ex-adict lol (yes, it IS possible :p)
Do not listen to this person.
This person will become another example of why world of warcraft will ruin your academic progress.

Back in 2007, a world of warcraft addict received a dismal band 2 in mathematics along with generally poor performance as a result.

Actually if you are interested in a fun game that has leveling up and is worth playing, play Modern Warfare 2.

I played for a bit at the beginning of the HSC then got bored of it - picked up dota + being super addicted to BOS instead.

So i'd say yes, it is possible to do well in the HSC while playing WOW :)

*tilts head to the side*
I think you missed the whole EX-addict bit...
If I no longer play the game...
how will it ruin my HSC?

True though Wod Warfare 2 is a great game, and not as obscenely, dangerously addictive

I play but it's pretty goddamn repititive.

So much time invested to get an 80 then more time to gear up in PVE then even MORE time to get into PVP.

Basically play 20+ days in order to even 'begin' the game.

But why do people like Dota so much? I mean doesn't it get repititive?
A game finishes in 40-50 minutes.

More variety in terms of drafts and what not.

Less item dependent when you get to upper tier.

I expect it would quite noticibly impact on your results (depending of course on just how much you played it).

At our school there was only one totally obsessed wowfag, and I do believe he had a legitimate retardation of some kind so I have no real evidence other than the fact you are most likely gunna be playing it for a shit load of shit long time.

Provided you get your study done, it shouldn't destroy your HSC.
