One more turn syndrome...

Ah, the infamous One More Turn Syndrome, where you will stop playing once you have “done one more turn” “finish the next match” or “The next ‘good’ place to save” Which then applies to the next one…and before you know it, you have lost 10+ hours of your day and its 6am…
The worst games for this are Football Manager and Civilisation, although SimCity or any Turn Based Strategy is quite capable of it as well. Everyone also has a unique game to them which causes it too (Mines is World In Conflict).
As I found out, Its nice to have friends to help remind you of reality and force you to return to it…
