hmm, but that might also fuck up my gaming, which is totally reasonable - in part because I can just hit pause ffs
I'm not necessarily saying that your family is slowly being absorbed into the Matrix via League of Legends and the only way to escape is an EMP burst, but gosh, I sure did just type all the same words that I would type if I was going to say exactly that, didn't I?

If one of my parents pulled up a chair next to me while I was on the computer as a teenager, we would just stare at the desktop together until one of us stood up and left
It's just that the guys get super tense and if they're interrupted there's about a 70/30 chance they're going to respond, um, let's call it "unkindly". This has lead to many actual arguments, so I see LoL as a thing that has the potential to start fights in the house. So I want to kill it with fire and bleach.

what the fuck my iPhone keeps randomly "restarting" (going to a gray screen with the black apple logo for a minute and then returning to normal)
wtf is happening
It's dying.
You can try backing up and restoring it but if it keeps doing that, it's kicked the bucket. If it's new (less than 1 year) or under applecare, it'll be painless to replace. If not, prepare your $600 and get in line.
I literally bought it three months ago
I may have accidentally dropped it in a toilet but it was like a half second and I fished it out and it was fine and it was like 2 months ago

This is how we get when we're under the effects of Adrenaline.
It's not personal, but we're basically in flight or fight mode.
Maybe set some boundaries on some game time being uninterrupted or something unless it's an emergency.

That'd work well for the husband, but for the boys I'm thinking Bethryn has the right of it. It'd be particularly frustration inducing since they know I know a lot about the game.

Point out to them that their being shitty must be the cause of the reboot.

i'd really like to see any moba implement a TV show called "Flip this game" where someone joins a game that someone afk or ragequit out of and attempts to salvage it
i think we could get some real entertainment potential out of it

Install a Paradox game on your computer. Swap the shortcut for it and LoL. See if they notice the difference!

now that i think of it you should just suggest instead of playing league that your family should do it vicariously through watching saltyteemo
you have no real investment in which side wins - no emotions rising except laughter
you can get up and walk away from saltyteemo at any time - gets rid of the interrupting problem
watching people who are literally at ~300 MMR is pound for pound the highest entertainment value - great
A hopeless solipsist, and somewhat stupid, <name> renders ideas and people that he has met into stories, discursively, since when he does it with spoken words the effect is too ephemeral for his liking. He has taught English, delivered pizzas, cleared houses for auction, washed dishes, landscaped, sold scratch tickets, among other types of work. He also endures the casual heartlessness of his fellow primates - the most difficult of the things he does. First and foremost, he writes.

To take their side for a bit, are these important and immediate interruptions? "Walk the dog" or "Start chopping the potatoes" (if other stuff isn't already cooking) are generally amenable to being done after a match is finished.
It's not really different from any other activity that requires a bit of time to do, the difference between LOL and a soccer match or whatever is that the former is in your house.

yeeeah, no. I'm not limiting how the house functions around a game. here's a recent example:
spool15 asks spool17 (who is playing LoL) for confirmation that's it's really okay for him to borrow something right before leaving the house...spool17 jumped down his throat, huge fight ensued that lasted nearly a half hour.
spool15 is playing spool32 asks him to do the dishes when he's done with that game, spool15 says something shitty, spool32 grounds him from gaming...huge fight ensues, that one lasted nearly a week on and off
spool32 is playing, I have a migraine, the boys want to go to a friend's house since they have to tip toe around our place 'cause I'm near death - they tentitively go ask their father, much yelling later I'm puking my guts out and spool32 feels like an asshole for days.
Explain to me how a game that induces these reactions is fun?

If goosery continues, should spool15 and 17 ever desire to post here, you pick their user names.
The mods can coordinate to ban any alts they attempt to set up.
I remember when spool was talking about his back being sore after play-fighting with one of the teen32s.
My advice at the time was to throw the offending child out the window while bellowing "I'm more powerful than you can possibly imagine!"
What I'm saying, Belasco, is you replace 'child' in my above sentence with 'computer' and we've got a solid idea here.
