That is not botting. He's a person...

Good Lord! What are people Thinking? My back hurts after a few hours. My eyes get watery and I have a real nice 19" Trintron monitor.

I am surprised he didn't wear Depends Diapers just to keep going.

But I'll bet he was on Speed of some sort.

Talk about Thinning the Herd....

Silly..silly man...now he is DEAD!

I know a lot of people, who shall remain nameless, that managed between 50-70 hours during beta weekends. Those people mentioned that even after a week their sleepeing schedules were farked.

Really sad that guy died

He even quit his job for the game, wonder which game it was

If you're talking about my character name, then yes. I got in a nice lil name; I'm assuming you know what it is in reference too

Oh well, at least he died doing what he loved the most (aside from rolling around in money, everyone loves doing that)...

This is going to stem a lot of BS from like Mothers Against Gaming or some group like that. I can see it now:

"Video Games Lead to Death"

Pretty Christian groups are going to be in it and then Jerry Fallwell then the President and we're going to sign some Anti-Game agreement with South Korea, and since they love they're gaming so much, theres going to be this big civil war. And then the North Koreans are going to Carpe Diem and nuke South Korea and the the US will be all "Hey we signed some stuff with them, Nuke North Korea" and then We'll blow them up.

The China and Russia and the Germans and It'll be World War Freaking 3 cuz of that idiot. Every country in the world will be in on it. Except Switzerland, cuz they're neutrall ALL the time and France cuz they're pansies.

Bingo! Exactly what I said in one of the other 3 posts on this topic. Errm, save for the whole civil war, bill being signed, blowing people up, WWIII, France surrendering... But the part about Pretty Christian Groups and potentially soccer moms everywhere seeking blood (but not), that is feasably possible.

He must've been in relatively poor health before hand, hell I've gone 3 days with 3 hours of sleep and non-stop gaming except a couple meals eaten at my desk while playing, and I never died. Sleep is optional.

ManadartheHealer · Aug 12, 2005, 02:35 PM // 14:35

I've only gone about 12 hours "nonstop" gaming (had to go to the bathroom and make a sandwich in there, but it was basically nonstop

). I have no clue how or why anyone would want to play any more than that at one time
