"the latest you have been up because of your computer/console"

well...come on own up....
me?? i've been up until like 5:30am a few times....either playing counterstrike on the pc or playing pso on the dreamcast (but that's purely cos my american mate was on).
and if you were up this early did you try to hide when your parents happened to come down for some reason??
i know two of you have already.....
i don't get in trouble....but i'm sure some of you do...

For FM I think a controller counts as heavy machinery ;-)

As long as you did not drive or operate heavy machinery in between plays!!

I once spent 48 hours playing Final Fantasy VIII non-stop.

Then I slept for 7 hours.

Then I played it for another 36 hours non-stop.

Then I slept for about 17 hours.

I don't know really, i never take much notice of how long i have been playing for. It won't be a long time though.

The last time my parents caught me playing a console in the middle of the night, I was playing Sonic The Hedgehog 2 on a Mega Drive and a 14" portable TV. Luckily nowadays I can stay up all night playing games without worrying, well at least until morning when I'm late for work.

Why do you not like the DC? It does have some good games.

Well, I never play for a long time continuously any more. In fact, I never play at all. Why, you ask. Because I now have a Dreamcast!

I suppose I do play my PC but not forlong periods of time. I seriously need to get my N64 back off my cousins.

At my friend's house we stayed up all night playing GT3. His parents thought we just got up really early but we never actually went to bed.

Therefore me and my friend beat you all!

I spent about 10-15 hours playing Championship Manager. I was hooked, completely oblivious to time.
