Question of the Day, November 21, 2010

[Assassin Xaero]

Pretty sure you need a specific license to drive a bus, no thanks. I'd donate money tho

You know Desert Bus is a game, right?

OT: I would definitely do it. 24 hours straight would probably be pretty rough, especially since I can't think of any game I could play for 24 hours straight, but 12 I could easily do...

 

[psivamp]

I used to routinely drive 10-12 hours between my duty station in Virginia to home. Once I drove 18 hours from Charleston, SC to home... I was pretty out of it by the time I got to the end.

I MIGHT be able to drive to 24 hours straight, but I'd feel better about doing shifts.

 

[Jinjiro]

As long as LRR-esque shenanigans were going on behind/to the side of me, I would definitely drive it for as long as humanly possible. I'd go for the 'longest bus spree' award, in fact. FOR THE KIDS!

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

I would at least try to go as long as possible, so I chose 24 hours.

 

[Scizophrenic Llama]

I put other, simply because I'd be more than willing to do it; IF there happened to be a ton of my friends around to keep me company throughout the hellish travel.

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

I would do it for the whole 24 hours!!!

...but I can't drive

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

This is one those things I can't answer. I like to think I'd be able to do it fine, but then I've never played the game at all, so I have no idea what driving it for 24 hours would be like.

I tend to go stir crazy if forced to do something monotonous for 24 hours. Work is often a nightmare for me.

 

[MirrorSweep]

I'd probably kill us all with my awful driving..so suuuuuuuuuuure =D

 

[Sneaklemming]

I don't know. I'd drive a bus to help sick kids sure... but I can't drive... and there are no deserts here... this question has no frame of reference for me.

I should really learn how to drive tbh.

 

[Hithlain]

I would drive for a week straight if it meant that I could hang out with LRR and raise money for my favorite charity!

 

[brunothepig]

Give me access to my music and some milkshakes and snacks, and I'd happily driver it for charity.
And maybe some other people there to keep me entertained.

My thoughts exactly. Still, I don't know if I could do 24 hours without crashing it. I know that doesn't really matter, but still. If they'd just go back to 8 hour shifts, certainly. I'd give it my best though.
Also, alternate between milkshakes and coffee... Or the occasional coffee milkshake.

 

[DaBozz]

Hell yeah, it looks like so much fun, I would love to hang out with all those cool people.

 

[Grayjack]

Hell no. I get bored easily.

 

[Pielikey]

I played a two-hour endurance race in RACE 07. I have to say that was the most boring thing I've ever done.
But I would do it again a million times.

And yes, I would drive a bus in a desert for 24 hours straight to help children.

 

[Jesus Phish]

If I could do it in a similar vein to the LRR guys, with companionship then yeah, probably for a day if I can stay awake.

If I had to do it locked in a room alone, with nothing but a camera watching me to make sure I was playing, that'd be something I could probably only do for a few hours.

 

[Something Amyss]

You know Desert Bus is a game, right?

I THOUGHT the stream looked funny....

I'd totally give it a go for charity. My only concern is going to the bathroom, because 24 hours seems like a long time. Especially after the caffeine it would take to keep me going....

 

[ultrachicken]

I don't know how to drive.

 

[CleverCover]

I would but...

1. I don't have my license yet. Am getting that.
2. I don't trust myself to last 24 hrs being an inexperienced driver.
3. I'm usually only fully awake for a max of 12 hrs after I wake up. After that, I going on caffeine and will, mostly caffeine.
