Watch WC3 games.

I'm not even kidding. I start nodding off after 2-3 games no matter what. I guess it's physically impossible for me to study and get better at the game. WC3 is less exciting than TvT.

Oh well, at least I'll know how to treat insomnia from now on.

I fall asleep later and later every night because of a jacked up circadian rhythm. I pull an all-nighter once per week to adjust.

Also, it's what you do during the day that effects your sleepiness at night. It's all the generic stuff your mom tells you: eat right, exercise, drink lots of water instead of soda (caffeine = anti-sleep).
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

I´m assuming this isn´t just some attempt at trolling wc3.

This actually happens when I watch sc replays as well, occassionally even when watching sc vods even though I´m not particulary tired. Wasn´t there some thread on this, replay fatigue or something.

Watching WC3 isn't so bad if you don't play it, everything's new to you I fall asleep playing WoW all the time, though.

no this isn't trolling, I've actually been playing some wc3 (against comps) recently and trying to improve a little

Yeah, SC will make me sleepy if I'm already tired, but wc3 is a whole different story. I was literally dozing off during the middle of the day.

100% true UNTIL UNTIL I started playing the game seriously for a few weeks, like i actually cared about getting better at it. It was suprisingly refreshing but then I began falling asleep and went back to watching TvT dropfests, oh god I yawned while I typed that, zzz.

Yeah, playing wc3 isn't that bad, especially melee.

But watching those replays makes me doze off as well. Not melee as much as DotA replays. God, DotA replays are so long and tedious to watch. I feel like I'm doing hw.

Reading a textbook is a sure way to make me pass out. I dont know how many times I have struggled to keep my eyes open while reading at night. Even if I find the material really interesting it just puts me to sleep if I am at all tired before reading.

If there is a more passive thing for your mind than playing DOTA I suppose it is watching it.

Did you like, use the search function to find a random thread vaguely about wc3 just so that you could bump said thread with a bad one liner in order to start a wc3 v bw flame war?.

Seriously. -_-

I love how everyone mentioned dota replays as sleep inducing, I noticed the same thing when I used to play. It was almost impossible for me to watch an entire game without nodding off.
Their are four errors in this sentance.

I watched a lot of Korean Pro-VODs on OGN/Playple TV (With exciting Korean commentary of course), its not that bad. Its harder to follow compared to SC and not as exciting/intense. Dota on the other hand is beyond boring and I cant bare to watch it.

Promise not to laugh?

I watch 'The Joy of Painting by Bob Ross' I have like 5 seasons of it.

He has such a somber melodic voice and the painting in general put me in a really relaxed sleepy mood. I'm usually out in 10 min.

Omg.. I had this happen a couple of weeks ago, I was talking to a friend on vent my chair reclines so I had reclined back, she was pretty much just talking AT me, so I was in auto mode. "hmm interesting. I know what you mean. Right yeah. I see. Cool".

Next thing I know I wake up in the morning with a message on my msn saying
"Armin?"
"Armin are you there?"
"oh my god, tell me you didn't just fall asleep talking to me!".

I nod off watching any replays or vods, but WAY WAY WAY the most to warcraft 3. Its just so slow and boring even when there is shit going on.

Both times I went to blizzcon I was watching war3 games live and falling asleep.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
