I remember when I was 14 and was playing Air Warrior on AOL and it was summer. Most of my friends were gone on vacation, my mom was gone with my aunts for a trip and I had the house to myself. I prepared myself a bunch of snacks, moved the TV into the game room and took a fresh shower at 7am. I sat down at the computer, turned on my Packard Bell (with a mega-sized hard drive of 600mb and whopping fast processor of 386) and started up Air Warrior.

I think it was about 36 hours later I finally stopped playing the game. This was with intermittent breaks of using the bathroom, eating, showering, etc. I remember going to bed and sleeping for about 12 hours. Was it worth it? Looking back now, probably not but at the time I had a huge blast doing it!

Hmmmm.... longest I ever stayed on was probably 3 hours. 

Just don't have the time.  I was lucky to get double digits in a tour.

A few weeks back, on a Saturday night. Wife asleep, kids in bed, logged on at about 10pm. No clock in bedroo with computer, lost track of time. Played for what I thought was a few hours, got sleepy and logged off thinking it was maybe 2am or so. Walked into bedroom and noticed the faintest sign of dawn through the blinds. It was 5:50 am!!  :confused:

Lost track of time just a little bit!

3 days online after going to a Rave in Eureka (lived in Arcata at the time)..
I think I played Q3 and took breaks reading the Michio Kaku's book "Hyperspace"..
Don't ask how I managed to stay awake, but it was a "spiritual experience"..

Pre-marriage and Pre-Kids, of course...

Wife and kids went to Grandparents for the weekend and I had to stay home for a meeting on Saturday. Family left on Thursday afternoon. I started playing Friday night about 6PM and got a phone call later that night to move the meeting to 9AM Monday. Logged off at 2:30 am Sunday morning. NEVER heard the alarm clock or cell phone ringing.

Wife (while still out of town) got a call at 9:30 from an employee looking for me. She paniced and called a friend to check our house with a hidden key under the porch.

Yep, was awoke by my wife's girlfriend (a hottie too) at 10:45. I got a shower, she made me breakfast, and I blamed my late start for sleep deprivation over missing my sweet family. :devil

The only one whos knows the truth is Jackson, (the dog) and he ain't talkin. I made sure of that.  :t

Sometime last year I had a 4 day weekend, the weekend was lost to bad weather and unfortunatley that meant we had to spend our time indoors, during this time my brother in law was down and he and I spent 38hrs straight playing online, taking bathroom breaks and eating was the only time when we were AFK, that was the only and last time I ever want to do that again, you start seeing things that arent there.   :x  :lol
It was interesting to see what type of players come on at different times of the day and night from around the world though, busted up many noes espeacially really early in the mornings.

lol thats a good one strokes.. the longest i have played was about 8 hours maybe because huges net will only allow so much megabytes per 8 hours or it will basically run out of internet and quit working until it recharges

During most of the year, I'm lucky to get in two nights a week of 2 or 3 hours each.

But there have been Conventions over the years where I've gotten up at 8am, was in the main ballroom by 9am, and I didn't leave (save for food and potty-breaks) till 3am.

Man, those are great days...
