Miyoo didn't read the article D= It says Sweden (inb4step)
"They played all day and all night. Maybe they got a few hours of sleep. They ate a little food and breakfast at their computers"
Isn't that like, 50% of people on this forum? =o Heck, I skip the breakfast. Breakfasts are for the weak!

People who don't eat breakfast scare me. I could care less about caffeine (nty @ coffee, tea nice but not required) but I cannot function properly if I don't eat something in the morning. I can skip lunch/dinner fine though, just need a light snack or something >_>
gg at the guy in the article though. Drove himself ill and didn't even manage to get a server first or anything cool like that, I'm guessing?

Boy Collapses After Paying WotLK For 24 Hours
|
How much was the bill? Must've been a lot if he had to pay it for 24 hours LOL
And I always skip breakfast. I can't eat anything in the mornings or I'll throw up. I just make it up during lunch~

Another WoW-case? Bleh.
The media will blame it on the games again, and not the actual person who was too obsessed.

I don't think I could stay up for that long for a game. What were you playing?

If the game was entertaining enough, I'd stay up, but I would always have food

Once I get too tired I stop having fun .-.
Not that I feel I'm missing out on all the excellent seizures and what not...

If he past out for only 24 hours then he wouldn't hold a candle to my 40-60 hour campaigns that raised 4 characters lol. But hopefully they won't blame WoW and blame the person who was excessing.

Someone has never heard of Red Bull and Rockstar. o:
I've never played 24 hours straight. Ever. It didn't seem worth my precious, precious, PRECIOUS quality time with Bed. I did, however, often do it in college to study or to finish a paper. 8D
