Same here. I've grown quite attached to sleep. If I were to go without sleep for 48 hours, I'd probably be incapable of focusing on the screen at all, so it'd be pretty pointless to try and play SGW. But even so, I've never even set my alarm in the middle of the night just to bank (which I'm certain some players do or used to do), let alone stay awake for it. Then again, my GF would most likely hit me over the head with a hammer and drag me off to bed if I tried.

Anyway, for all those that do take this game that seriously, check out this wiki for some more info on the possible effects.

As soon as you build an idiot proof system, somebody else builds a better idiot.

If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

i highlly doubt you went 9 days. I personally cant even go one but anyway.

Without adequate rest, the brain's ability to function quickly deteriorates. The brain works harder to counteract sleep deprivation effects, but operates less effectively: concentration levels drop, and memory becomes impaired. Speech becomes slurred and fragmented, and mental reaction time slows.
The brain's ability to problem solve is greatly impaired: decision-making abilities are compromised, and the brain falls into rigid thought patterns that make it difficult to generate new problem-solving ideas. Insufficient rest can also cause people to have hallucinations.

Both physically and mentally it would have been almost imposible for you to study at all. The fact that you even done that is pure stupidity if you wanted to study properlly get plenty of sleep thats how i do it.

Anyway 7 days of SGW even with a few hours sleep hear and there is pretty impresive. For me it is usually the compleate opposite only logging in for maby 1-3 hours a day.

I wouldn't be able to anyway... SGW tends to play such a small part in my life that I would find myself having to stop playing to go do something fun...

Okay After Reading Everyones Posts Ill like to state a few fact
1) 3 People have been document to Stay up for 9 + days
2) When they reached day 10, Two of them died due the body not being able to reset it self. 3rd Blacked out and was comatose for 2 weeks.
The Two people that died had a sleeping disorder or disease that was unable to be treated and made it almost impossible for them To Get any REM(rapid eye movement [ie the body trying to reset itself]) sleep.

3) Anyone who Stays up for 9 days with Caffenine or other stimulants would 100% be have teh best trip of there life. They would be seeing more things then a person in a mental ward.
4) Most i ever stayed up was 6 days. and by that time i was seeing thing. I will be honest. I thought i had wings for the 2hrs before i went to bed.
5) No human being can stay up for 9 days straight on OverTheCounter Stimulants.
6) If someone did push themselves to 9days without Stims there body would fail soon after due to many strains
7) Misfire of neurons has always happened in the 3-6 day mark.
8) Been proven after 2 days of being awake its equal to .2+ blood alcohol content in the driving area. Your reaction tiem is completely deminished by 3 days.
9) If you stayed up for 7 days id find it hard to believe.



10) i got 15+ hrs of sleep after the 120hrs. Only reason i did 120 is i was bored with the war. and i was trying to beat my BrotherInLaw(high empty [ didnt know he had 5.5 or i may have tried for it]) and at the same time i was participating in other games. (CounterStrike, FinalFantasy 11, RoseOnline, DoD, and Halo). My Laptop was right next to my comp with SWARS up and id update my attack page every minute or so and bank page eery 30minutes (i had an alarm for this)

Re: The Record Stands Lets See What You Think?

I've stayed up for 24 hrs a few times, but this game is just that and i have no need to destroy myself with sleep deprevation when there are plenty of more fun ways to destroy myself, lol. If i wanted to hallucinate then going 4-5 days without sleep is the last thing i would think of, don't you guys have dealers for that sort of thing? lol
