I kept myself busy... Do active things but things that don't get you tired.

Talk on the phone, walk outside, play some kind of video game for about 30mins, DONT STARE AT A SCREEN TOO LONG. hang out with friends, eat, don't eat to the point were you feel lazy. Do chores around the house. Make shit, like with legos or w.e you have around your house. Go to the nearest store buy like model cars and stuff. Take up drawing lessons by buying a book. stuff like that man :D

Yea you're going to get tired way more easy with this 14-16min i.m because you will be looking at a screen to much. The screen makes your eyes get heavy.

It's probably not for the money and just for competition. Otherwise, kind of foolish yeah for so little.

In college I stayed up longer than I probably should have on many occasions... but don't go out of your way to stay up for several days in a row... it's taxing on your body (and potentially dangerous) and just plain dumb. Find some other way to bet on who is more macho.

There was a Kenny vs Spenny on this, and the doctor tells Kenny to continually clench his anus.
Good luck.

I've never forced myself into staying up for multiple days in a row, but the only times that I 'accidentally' didn't sleep for one night, I spent the next day taking a nap everywhere I went (even in public.
Have you tried forcing an adrenaline rush into you? I've always found that helpful when I'm dozing off in class or something.
Also, are you a masochist?

no good cus the crash comes after will 100% make u sleep

dude starcraft's just a game... sleep is ur health man... u can die if u don't get enough sleep (it's fuks really badly w/ ur brain)

this about it this way... sleep is the time when ur body heals itself, grows, and organize its thought

even when u eventually go to sleep ur body nvr recovers from lost sleep and u'll fill it forever (in parts)
also bad sleep habits put u at a higher risk for heart disease

R3condite, i'm not really worried about heart disease at this point lol, i'm a completely healthy 20 year old, this is not something i do often, and i doubt i'll start losing limbs from skipping a few nights of sleep.

Some people may appear perfectly healthy when there's some sort of health problem that may have been missed during a check up or something.

I'm not saying you have any sort of problem, just be aware that it's possible. So be careful and hope you win soon ( or else the lack of sleep will really start fucking with you >_> )

You should combine this idea with the other retarded blog about pulling a "prank" where you wear ski mask and use water gun to fake rob a store! Would be lol for sure and you can bet on that too!

Keep going SCers have an innate advantage over other people~

One time I didn't sleep for like 3 days when I went into a crazy anime binge and real life would randomly switch into "bullet time" and everything would be slow/fast as fuck at the same time. It was real weird. Went to bed after that pretty much.

The key is to have bring lights going all the time, your chances of staying awake are much better.

The world record was set by a guy who was in a room with really bright lights.
