World of Warcrack

Well for my ethnography I plan on interviewing 2 family members that got me to play world of warcraft a while back. Luckily I didn't get addicted like many other people have! Those two people would be my cousin, and secondly my dad. My cousin doesn't really play anymore because he ran out of money to pay for WoW and he had to get a job and then decide to "quit" WoW. My cousin is mainly responsible for both my father and I playing WoW. My dad has now been playing for over 2 and a half years and hasn't stopped. When he had a job he would come home and play wow till he slept then wake up play and then off to work again and repeat... Now he doesn't even work. I swear he just saved up enough money to live off for a while so he can play wow everyday all day. Its sad I know, but I'm pretty sure thats what he did. I feel they are both very good candidates for an ethnography, they represent the addicted and the once addicted players. So I will hopefully get some good responses from them so I can figure out what about this game "addicts" them!
