I ran a search and couldnt find a thread on this. So if there is one could a Mod point me in the direction of it?

Does anyone know where the list of Addictivness Ratings can be found?

I actually do not think we have one. When you click on load game, or on save game it shows up in the box down below. My Hawks challenge reads "Your dinner is getting cold"

I'd do a search of the SI board. I seem to remember somebody listing them out there a long time ago.

I ran one and theres a list posted for Football Manager but not for Hockey and they are different.

Theres a couple threads that list a couple (mostly the early ones) but none that list when you get them or even in what order. Nor does it give a complete List.

I believe the biggest reading that I got was the one about not forgetting to feed the fish.

I believe that was probably around 2 or 3 days of playing, but not too sure.

I'd hate to see what shows when you have played for a year or something like that.

Ha :p

Yeah I need to get as far as possible till mid-August since I'm moving then and September, October happens to be the most chaotic time at the office. I might not get back to the challenge even till November and I don't wanna be disqualified for missing the deadline again :D

Well at the rate you're going you'll be through at least the first 4 or 5 seasons of the challenge. Should be plenty of a buffer zone! :thup:

Season doesnt have anything to do with the rating, its how many hours you've logged playing the game that will change it.

Yep. The time played taken into account is the time the game is opened. So if you open the game and then go to the cinema, time will increase even if you're not playing at all. I don't see any interest in doing this however :p

I made more than 3900 saves in my last game. For more than 7 months I'm getting that "Hockey is indifferent here" message. My guess this is the last degree of addictiveness. :-D

That is almost 20 saves a day for 7 months straight.

I only save the game when I log off and during the weekly auto-save.

My new season is currently at the 41 game mark and I have over two days of game time.
