Symptoms: You may have sporcle-itis if you have experienced any of these symptoms:

- Loss of sleep by trying to get a perfect score on a quiz

- Overheating of your computer due to an excess of time spent on it

- Lack of motivation to do anything social, as it may cut in to your sporcle time

Billy: Damn, he's got some major sporcle-itis.
