Wasn't this some time ago?

Heh, I couldn't even play that long. My eyes would hurt so badly and i'd probably get a headache.

I'd get that around the 14 hour mark...

My parents keep telling me that me playing starcraft is like an addiction to a drug. I bet they would love to hear about these deaths of people playing sc too long so they could use it against me.

Rofl that's like what my dad did when he showed me the article

It's cool I'm keeping the article

Oh, I do. I just prefer to read instead of speaking. Having 30 threads of the same thing is to emphasize a point. Koreans are crazy!

and the really hate japan... what kind of pansy has a heart attack after only 49 hours, if your that fat just bring a mini fridge

I told my parents about the 49 hour one and they are like, Your going for 50 hours.

And Syphon, he played 49 hours straight, rarely ate and did not sleep at all. It's called Exhaustion His body didn't have the time to do important things that happen while you sleep and as a result he died from it. Same thing as swimming for 49 hours straight, or running for 49 hours straight.

Except that playing StarCraft takes little energy to do.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by chuiu on 2005-08-20 at 20:46:33

Have to disagree with that. Intensely playing melee can really drain the energy out of you.

But you wouldn't know, you seem to hate the game.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by MapUnprotector on 2005-08-20 at 20:50:18

Especially considering this is a UMS site where most people don't bother to play Melee nor do they appreciate it

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Felagund on 2005-08-20 at 20:50:21

No, I hate people that are obsessive over it. It's a pet peeve of mine I guess.

But you wouldn't know, you seem to hate me.

Like I said, when I played ToS for 47 hours I didn't sleep at all and I rarely ate, only went to the bathroom twice a day too.

That's not a good thing to say about Chu :/

Whether or not it's a good thing is regardless of how I perceive it.

I bet if an American dies the same way, bush would issue a ban on these games saying it is a dangerous weapon and an act of terrorism (or w/e).

Not really
