How will you stay up after midnight? : V - Skyrim

» Tue May 08, 2012 11:11 pm

Having some coffee to help stay awake but also have to drive an hour after picking it up so I might be a little exhausted. Thinking of installing it, creating my character and going to sleep so I can wake up early and game all day.

I'm very much the night owl, so I'll have no problem staying up until dawn's early light. My wife and I both stayed up late last night and just woke up about half an hour ago, so we'll be ready for gaming after the midnight release.

I won't be up playing. My new computer i7 build comes in tomorrow. I'll pick up at the midnight release, then take my medication and call it a night. Get up the next day, build my new PC, then install and play Skyrim.

Khajitt uses lots and lots of moon sugar.

Luckily for me, I'm a line cook, so I work at 4pm.

Tonight I'll get off work around 10:30-11, come home to Skyrim unlocked on Steam, mull some mead I bought yesterday, then play until I pass out in the wee hours of the morning. Even doing that, I can get a full nights sleep before I have to go to work on Friday!

Amphetamine should do the trick.

Too bad they nerfed the hell out of Four Lokos... I'd grab a couple of those if I needed the fun pick-me-up!!

Knocks you out while it keeps you going!

I tried to sleep some hours earlier, trying to sleep some more before the unlock on steam, going to have to clock set so I don't miss the launch, then I'm going to adventure all night and then go to school.^^;

02:00 - 03:00 is normal for me, so no big deal.

Usually the excitement of playing will keep me up. The danger of me falling asleep is at the time I download from the disk. Hope it will not be too long.

The last time I stayed up for a midnight release I got home and they played for 24 straight hours before I passed out. Needless to say i think I am good to go.

coffee and dew

» Wed May 09, 2012 1:45 am

I ain't. Althought I may well get up very early saturday, depends if Friday night is a potent enough taster :-)

I have 3 Amps (its the only energy drink that doesn't give me a stomach ache)

» Wed May 09, 2012 6:30 am

Funny thing, but I go to a lot of midnight releases, only to come home, pop the game in for 20 minutes and pass out.

Tonight though, I'm planning on getting a red bull and gaming it out till at least 2-3am. Then hit work in the morning.

Any other tips you can share?

Pretty much same here.

Except I'll probably play it until 7 am, skip work and get fired.

Ive got an entire twelve pack of Root Beer just for tonight.

I had a lengthy afternoon nap earlier, and I've got some Mountain Dew energy drink chilling in the fridge

» Tue May 08, 2012 10:09 pm

Nap after work... and then between the excitement of playing the game the first time and this magic elixir commonly called "coffee" I doubt I've have any problems.

» Wed May 09, 2012 12:47 am

iced tea the order of the day for me :wink_smile:

» Tue May 08, 2012 10:52 pm

Couple 2-liters of mountain dew.

I'm gonna stay up until I literally can't go anymore, but I'm usually up until around 2 or 3 anyways.
