    Default This game is killing me...

    I played all night last night until 6:30 am the next day (today). I'm taking a day off from work today. I am actually using up my vacation time to play this game, how pathetic... hehehe. My eyes are in pain from looking into the computer screen for so long, and I feel tired because I slept only 4 hours.

    BUT I CAN'T STOP. THIS GAME IS AWESOME!!!!!!!

    Get out for an hour and run about a bit! Playing is better when you're healthy. Agreed, though, if I didn't have a billion things going on that need attention I probably would have pulled an all-nighter last night as well

    My understanding is that you can get away with as little as 4 hours of sleep a day if you take it as four 1 hour periods evenly spaced around the clock. Of course, you really have to sleep during each of those 1 hour periods. I once stayed up for over 36 hours straight. I couldn't add 2+2 by the end, and I think I slept for 15 hours after that.

    yes, the game is evil. It is mid-day and a beautiful one at that and i am still in my jammies. It took all my strength to go to the bathroom and make a sandwich.

    I cant break away, the senate wont let me.

    I second this.
    I saw a documentary on professional gaming teams in Korea and they excercised religiously everyday, twice a day. Improved stamina and reaction times and helped avoid things like Deep Vein Thrombosis (blood clots). Interestingly enough their dietician fed them fruit and fruit juices as the natural sugars had a lower glycemic index, so lasted longer and you didn't get twitchy from them.

    These people played for an average of 18 hrs, excersied for 2 and slept only 4 hrs a day.

    Its a dirty job but someone has to do it.
