Late night blues
« on: March 19, 2009, 10:37:45 AM »
   Anyone else in the same boat as me? I live on the US east coast and often get ready to log at around 10pm...when guys in central and Pac time come on. The next thing I know its 1am and I have to get up in the morning. Ive been doing this along time and really need to change my ways but its just too damn fun.

  Just wondered if I was the only moron in the crowd.

i usually get on around 9-10pm as well and dont log until about 4am and then have to get up around 6:30am.











of course i do get to go back to bed after my daughter goes off to school, so probably not the same thing. :D

I'm in the central time zone and use to stay up till 1am some times 2am cause of everyone on. I got a new job and my hours switched from 10am-7pm to 7am to 4pm so that came to an end. I try to force myself off around 10-10:30 unless I'm on a roll, If thats the case 11:30 I'm logging out.

I've been on a steady diet of no sleep for about 7 years now.. Between my job, family and Aces High there is little time to sleep, besides I'm sure i'll be dead soon enough and I can get plenty of sleep then.

 :huh

I do similar things but in Australian timr zones, it never ceases to amaze me how many people are on and the ridiculous time it must be for them!

OK, confession time... How many of you have played so late that you finally just said screw it and pulled an all-niter?  I wanna hear from the real addicts who have shaved and vulched at the same time.  :lol

I haven't blown off work yet.. I think I would do that if I could play all day. I've got to get the wife to go on one of the kids class trips. I usually get on around 10:30pm EST and try to end it around 12:30am (up at 6am). I stop when I'm becoming an easy target (that's why I'm only on two hours)

Cheers,
