^ Likewise, but with AVWW. My dad tried something with my computer involving tweaking the ventilation. Afterward, I had to do something to stress test it, so I played AVWW in a window while keeping a heat monitor open. A few hours later I was like "Oh, I guess my computer's not crashing. Right. That's good news."

If I were you, I would have tried Crysis 1 on max settings, then grabbed a pair of facehuggers/other eye protection and a fire extinguisher, set up a bunker across the room, and enjoyed the fireworks show and the resulting darkness from the tripped circuit breaker. Why, might you ask? BECAUSE I CAN! And he did say to "stress test" it, right?  ;)

Just noticed one I forgot:

Realtime Clock (#2505) - Because otherwise it's suddenly 3am

For the love of <your choice of deity or lack thereof here>, why is this not in the game yet?!

My theory is Arcen uses AI Wars to steal hours of our day, which allows them to have days with more than 24 hours.  They then use those extra long days to crank out games.  That's the only way I can explain their productivity.
