already posted this in realmgx so if you go there no need to read again
tomorrow at 4:30 i will be in a gaming tournament which will give away an xbox 360 to whoever lasts the longest for 4 or so days without sleeping. You have a 10 minute break every 5 hours, cant sleep, and you can play al lthe games there (ddr, pc with lotsa games, xbox 360) any advice?
btw i have to wake up tomorrow at 7 which pisses me off, have another exam to take, but ill probably go back to sleep so i can enter it as refreshed with sleep as possible. no drugs, they check you. Any proffesional gamers here have any tips? |

Start sleeping right now.
Try not to eat anything with tryptophan, which can help relax the nervous system and induce drowsiness. It is not recommended to stay up for that amount of time, especially it's been rumored that after the third day you begin to hallucinate. |

| 4 days with no sleep huh? how many people are going to be in the tournament? all i can suggest is that if you play DDR don't play anything that will tire you out. also vary the games you play so that you don't get bored of playing something. if you have any friends in the tournament play with them as you'll probably have more fun that way and won't get bored as fast. |

bad idea. Being bored means you're storing your energy.
Eat shit with alot of carbs so that you can get alot of energy... and during those 10 mins breaks... just relax in ur chair.. takeka pillow to sit on.. you should relaly sit down al day.. don't get too into any of the games you play.. you want to conserve all your energy. It'd be different if it was just 2 days.. but this is 4 and you're gnana need ever drop you can get.
Energy drinks are a BAD idea.
They only work for so long then you'll be even MORE tired....
Just get soome good meals in you, like chicken breast.. oatmeal. penut butter / jelly sandwiches.. listen to music and jsut chill out.
key essentials to playing for 4 days straight.
BTW, you don't start halluscinating after 4 days of no sleep. I've been up for close to 6 and didn't see anything different. |

4 days to win a damn xbox 360?
4 days working you could afford to buy a xbox 360, and get 8 hours of sleep a night  |

Even with the stresses of daily life, if you make an effort to relax and wind down before bed, you will sleep easier and more deeply. A consistent, relaxing routine before bed sends a signal to your brain that it is time to wind down, making it easier to fall asleep. Make the time before sleep a time of peace and quiet, and find your unique routine that relaxes you. _________________ Bowtrol |

Four days of playing straight! Whew! I agree energy drink is a bad idea it will just keep you up for a while but it will wear you out. Drink strong coffee and don't skip meals. I've tried a lot of times putting in straight and long hours in computer and that's just what I do.

I don't recommend this, you can do it only if the reward is your own life. No one can do it for xbox 360. More over it you have to play a games and this is more frustrating after some time. _________________ bci digit finger pulse oximeter |
