A Kind Of Embarrassing Question...
Do you actually play with you LEGO CASTLE, and other themes. You know not just build...but play with the figs and things?
I'll answer soon as some others do...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: these are toys meant to be played with!
I am a full grown man and I play like crazy- emphasis on the crazy!
Most of it is coming up with scenarios for the people as I build, but sometimes its simply having my bad guys attack the good guys.
And of course it helps having my boy playing with me then I look like less of a loony...

Ok, I'll admit it. I do play with them. If I try to do t alone, if someone saw me playing, it would be weird. I have no problem building in front of people though. I do make storlines for the figs. It mostly follow the LEGO storlines, but there are many twisting webs from them. I do play and enjoy it. I wouldn't have it another way!

I mostly build, but fortunatly I have kids so I get the chance to "play" when I am with them. The ideas kids come up with are so inventive and fun, playing without involving my kids would seem a little hollow to me. I still act out scenarios in my head, but I usually let my kids wreak havok in my village for a while and then I get to rebuild everything. Before I had kids I definitly did a lot more actual playing, but building seems to take up most of my time now, perhaps when I'm not a daysleeper anymore I will have more time to play.

After a long absence, I have returned. I can't wait to start building again.

Yes I play BrickWars with them. I also like to play around with my other MOT (My Own Theme), the near-future one I call "Conflict Zone - Global Crisis"

Yay Brickwars!
Long ago I did ponder my sanity. But once I thoroughly concluded that I was insane I felt much better. I wonder if this makes any of you feel better though?

I'm with you on this Dragon Master! Sure I play with them. I make stories within the themes and beyond the themes. Besides, everyone I know probably assumes that I have a LEGO collection because I play with LEGO. So why should I disapoint them?I do play and enjoy it. I wouldn't have it another way!

As for playing -- of course I do!!! Why bother building a giant fortress if you can't knock it down??
I don't play as much as I used to, but my little sister makes up for that.

Re: A Kind Of Embarrassing Question...
Sure do! I also have kids so that helps hide the fact that I play. I recently had a big playing session with my 9 year old and his best friend. I was the forestmen and they had the town and castle (all mostly stuff I had built). I stole all of their gold, which made them mad. So, they brought out the army and killed most of my men (I tried to convince them that they kept missing but it didn't work!).
Play On!
