Well, the board is dead again, so prepare for an onslaught of useless threads! I suppose this is technically a game of sorts, but tis similar in vein to the "Things We Have Learned from Merlin" thread, which is also in this section, so HERE IT SHALL STAY, DAMMIT!!
1) You turn your family holiday in Wales into a research trip to find out various locations of "Merlin" filmage.
2) Your dream holiday is to go BACK to Wales and visit them all
3) When listening to song lyrics, you try and tie them into Merlin-related themes.
4) When watching "Young Dracula" with your little brother, upon seeing a character crush a fly in his fist and then wave his fingers, you squeal and yell "Hey, that was like Mordred..."

5) When you recognize the exact scene just from looking at a random picture of a character DX (as some may already know… *chuckles*)

6) When you watch "The English Patient" just for Jason Done's one teeny appearance, and turn off the film straight afterwards.
7) Your friends know the entire plotline of "Merlin" without ever having seen it themselves
8) You have combed the internet for, and read, every last Merlin fanfic. Even that one where Mab kills the Pope.
9) The sight of an actor from Merlin in any other film is immediately greeted with a cry of "That's Merlin/Mab/Frik etc.!!!"
10) When you meet new people, you inevitably manage to sneak the question "Have you ever seen "Merlin"?" into the conversation.
11) When playing Final Fantasy: "Hey, if Mab had summoned Bahamut, pwnage of Merlin/Camelot/the world would surely have occured. Damn copyrights..."

Agree to all of the above. Also, I think you’ve surpassed us all on point 9). And as a natural continuation of 7):
12) When your friends know actual lines from the movie without having watched it (so far, that is :>])
EDIT: Ah, yes! Add this to the list:
13) If everytime you watch something Merlin-related (and not only, actually), you can’t help but expect to hear someone whisper. DX

8) You have combed the internet for, and read, every last Merlin fanfic. Even that one where Mab kills the Pope. Hey! I don't recall that one! 14) When any and all televised series with a long-black-haired evil-sorceress villain attract your immediate attention.

Ah, but it is a true classic of our time... www.fictionpress.com/s/2562521/1/Merlins_DescendantThere ye go 15) When looking around an old ruin castle, you glance down at the stairs, and the first thing that pops into your head is "Careful my dear, these steps are very slippery"16) You then take a photo of said steps to remind you of your "Merlin"-moment

Indeed, ain't it fantabulous?
17) When you own three copies of "Merlin"- one Special Edition, one for regular home use, and one to take to university.
18) When you complain that you don't have enough copies of Merlin because there is another one with a different front cover.

I'm alive again...X3
3...Well, 3 is a guilt trip for everyone who's in that challenge thread. Like me.
I also personally agree with 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13, and 19.
11 is an interesting point. I do so agree.
I'm going to read that Mab kills the Pope. Seriously. ^___^

That was the greatest Merlin fic ever. Not really, but...
Merlin's suddenly a teenager. He's suddenly Gay. And Suddenly in love with Arthur, in a rahter forced-sounding way. XD
I love his mother. Her one line...
And something about Mab telling the magickal creatures that Merlin and Arthur will be champions of the fey and wipe out christianity....*giggle* Gay reference for the win, there.
Man, and the Pope scene was the best. Poor guy. He tried, after all. ;D

LOLOL!@19. Tough when that happens, isn’t it?
And indeed, that fic truly is funny as hell. Not sure whether we’ll be getting a second chapter, who knows.
20. When your family know that “Merlin” will be on TV, based on your sudden random squees.

21. When, just from that movie and the obsessive watching, your family knows who Miranda Richardson is, that you adore her, and showers you with other movies she's in (and for my family, that means I must be obsessive. XD
22. When you've gotten a neighbor so obsessed with it that they will come over just to watch it. (this happened. She watched it every time she came over, and started from the beginning every time. @_@)
