I have it, and now I'm up for the rest of the night.

Bring your stories of sleepless nights hither. I'll be here until morning.

I remember finding the entire Trigun series on youtube. Didn't sleep for much of that night.
I also recall playing FFX for at least 10 or so hours straight at a really good part (I took breaks too, that just took up the majority of my time). God I loved that game.

10 pages of the bible, turns out it's okay thought the old English is problematic for me to read fluently as I'd like.

also 5 hours of staring at the wall, now I understand the life of a NPC, no wonder why they are the way there are: they've gone batshit insane out of manic boredom,

also about 6 hours of halo 3 until the sun started to rise and I had to go back to the coffin

a better night is 6 hours of reading "speaker for the dead" while listening to "Dethalbum II"

this is all of course well past 11:00 Pm

I was up once for 3 and a half days playing SSBM. We wanted to unlock everything in the game in one run through and we did, it was amazing.

When I was twelve I stayed up for four and a half days watching a Pokemon marathon but that doesn't really count.

TF2 and L4D all-nighters with assorted Escapists and XBL friends are always fun. Unfortunately, I've barely had opportunity to lately. Grrr.

I stayed up for 4 days and played Devil May Cry 3 for about 20 hours, thinking I might have the world record for that game in terms of endurance
Shame I didn't document it

Stayed up for almost three days, freaked out cause I thought I saw something that wasn't even there. Was forced to go to sleep by my roomates.(apperantly they don't like the Idea of a crazy, sleep deprived Irishman walking around the house)

Sure, you miss out on a lot of sleep, but doesn't that give you like double the free time? There could be a bright side.

Well, on Friday nights like tonight, I regularly stay up for nearly 24 hours. I get up a 7AM for school and go to bed around 4PM. And no, it's not because I'm a party animal. Because I'm not, unless you guys count as a party. :)

I think the most I've ever stayed up is 24 hours, and I've only done it a few times. After that, my body just shuts down. I think one guy here on the Escapist said he stayed up for like 5 days. Unimaginable...
I find this hard to belief. After about 100 hours without sleep, people begin to exhibit symptoms similar to schizophrenia.

Oh it's very possible, the Rolling stones stayed up for about 6 days in a row. On several occasions. The world record is about 10 days
I have a genetic Insomnia issue and I have stayed up for 4 days. It is horrible though, you start hallucinating about that time. I can't imagine why you would want to stay up for that long

I stayed up all night on a weekday once. At school, I was more awake than if I had gotten any sleep.
