How will you stay up after midnight? : V

» Tue May 08, 2012 8:00 pm

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?

Coffee and push-ups

Once I get off work, I'm going to sleep early. Then I'll wake up at midnight, refreshed.

Take a nap now.

Set up a clock alarm to wake you up if you fall asleep

I think I might actually be too pumped to sleep tonight. Unfortunately I still have to get up and go to work in the morning!

Taking a nap after work.

I'm always up till 2 or 3 anyways... and that's just by reading a book or watching TV.

I'll have Skyrim this time.

I'm used to staying up past twelve. Only problem is I'm sick, and I have been sleeping a lot, so I am not sure if my usual sleeping habits will apply tonight.

I won't. I woke up around 1AM this morning to work, now I'm going to probably nap soon, then sleep all night, and hopefully the game will be here as early as possible. Ordered from Amazon.

I have a weird schedule. I woke up at 2am today, it's 1:39 pm now and I am starting to doze off. I'll probably wake up just as Steam unlocks, and I shall sit and watch the clouds drift over the treetops in Skyrim as begin a historic day.

Strong coffee and loud music. I'm gonna try and pull an all-nighter if I can borrow my nieghbor's 50" HDTV.

A few times I have stayed up past midnight into the next day and the key for me was the days in advance, getting as much sleep as possible and then take a nap before the midnight release. Made it a lot easier to stay up and play after I got the game home. I am doing the reverse this time and installing as soon as I get home, going to bed and then waking up really early tomorrow to play.

This ....... IS GENIUS!

not getting it at midnight due to this reason..I could easily due to my insomnia...but I always feel sickly once I do get some sleep.

» Wed May 09, 2012 8:57 am

I'll probably be too hooked on the game to be able to fall asleep. Happened in Fallout 3, I think I stayed up till 6 in the morning at one point. XD

I'm gonna break that record with Skyrim! ^^

Oh and coke, coffee, tea, all that good stuff! :-D

Power naps usually work for me if I have to pull an all nighter but I won't be for this release.

» Tue May 08, 2012 11:29 pm

I have work at 9 am but that won't stop me from giving the ol college try for an all nighter. I am planning on drinking copious amounts of coffee and washing my face several times with cold water. I'm hoping I can make it till at least three...I think I can...

I'm going to mix up my deathmix recipe:

Step 1: Acquire one of these:

Step 2:
Drink/empty 2/3 of the bottle

Step 3:
a. Add 1/3 vodka of your choice
b. Add 1/3 Red Bull/energy drink of your choice

Step 4:
Drink

Step 5:
One of three outcomes:
1. Have the time of your life, feeling both energized and intoxicated
2. Throw up, black out and pass out only to wake up in the morning in some random house still fully clothed and still drunk
3. Nothing, mix up another bottle and drink until you achieve one of the above outcomes

I've had copious amounts of caffeine and sugar. :dance:

I'm vibrating.

» Wed May 09, 2012 8:19 am

Im tired as it is and its not even 9PM yet.

I will not be up past midnight.
I will go to bed, go to college, come home and play the whole weekend, or well, most of the weekend, got a few things that will have my butt off Skyrim for some hours saturday AND sunday. Meh.

I'm installing, going to bed, then waking up early or a day full of Skyrim.

» Wed May 09, 2012 3:53 am

I always stay up to 1-3, and pull an all nighter about 3 times a month. I'm a terrible sleeper, but it works out good tonight!

The only caffeine I will drink is from dr. Pepper. I can only drink one coffee in the morning, any other time during the day or night coffee actually makes me tired. Same with redbull, puts me to sleep. Weird huh?
