Every inconvenience is a challenge.

Adrenaline rushes make me puke - no, I do not consider the feeling of having to puke to be "alive".

I consider the feeling I get when I do something I enjoy, which does not include puking from an adrenaline rush, a feeling of "alive" for me.

Again, not everyone feels the same - that poster stated everyone does, which is bunk.

I think you're still missing the context. I'm not exactly referring to the thrill of skydiving as it relates to thrills you might experience ingame. Are you trying to tell me you take no additional emotion and bonuses of excitement in a tight situation (ingame) wherein you emerge victorious?

Correct.

I enjoy games that allow me to work towards known and guaranteed goals that have a clear beginning and ending in sight.

Games that do not have that simply annoy me and I don't play them.
