Man strives to shatter Call of Duty world record

Sleep...

I remember listening to a British round-the-world solo yachtsman on the radio, talking about never sleeping for too long because of the need to avoid other vessels or deal with weather situations. Twenty minutes here, maybe an hour if he was lucky.

He said that he had sponsorship from the USAF, I think collected data on himself too, since they wanted data about sleep deprivation and alertness, so that combat flight rosters could be most effectively drawn-up.

I would just like to add -

what a feckless loser

Common knowledge

I thought it was common knowledge that the stories of dead gamers are government propaganda.

12 hour stint, 2 hour nap .... respect lost :)

I once spent 22 hours reading Clive Barker's Imajica cover to cover with nothing but an hour for toilet breaks, do I get a record?

That time of year?

Is it wintereenmas already?

HL CS SOF LA

I used to, from 97-00 play Longbow Apache, and other flight sims. Then, I learned about Half Life, and played the hell out of it. Later came Counterstrike, along with the frackin cheaters who sucked the soul out of fair players. Soldier of Fortune became more fun, on or offline. On some Fridays, i would get home around 9pm after a 1.5 hour drive to home from work. After showering and eating, i would play CS from around 2230 through Saturdy, nap maybe a couple of hours, then resume through Sunday 2200 or so, to try to climb into bed to be to work by Noon on Monday. I usually punctuated game play by going to the store, to get out of the house, to get food, fresh outdoors air, and daylight.

But, the end came when on a few occasions in 2004/2001 i felt something like OBE or soul-shifting going on. Playing on autopilot, blacking out, and not have the sensation of possessing a body became too scary. Havent done rpg since maybe 2004, maybe 8 hours across several sessions, and do not really miss it. Well, Longbow was fun, but my discs got scratched, and that ended that.
