I've tried that before but I never make it.

I do best when I hit the sack early and get 4 hours sleep before the servers come back up. Then I just play straight through until dawn ;)

I plan on playing through the offline story some tonight.

Otherwise is either Moon, Chrono Trigger, or Professor Layton on DS.

Whats the point of this? To do the bonus mission half asleep? You think its that easy?

-I'm going to log off early, if I log on at all today.
-I'm going to get a proper night's sleep.
-I'm going to wake up, take a shower and eat breakfast.
-I'm going to go to work, then I'll head home eight hours later.
-I'll have an early dinner if I feel hungry.

Then, and only then, will I log back in. I feel that deliberately not playing until I'm physically booted from the game and not rushign to be the first to log back in will greatly reduce the chance of my character getting corrupted, and also being effected by a rollback if one becomes necessary.

In the meantime I've written some software that needs polishing and documentation. I'll probably work on that for awhile.

I have to go somewhere tomorrow morning, so I won't be on PSU until the afternoon (GMT). As soon as I've had something to eat once I'm back home, I'll be checking the Carnival out. Me and a few friends have a few ideas for the Survival mission, so maybe we'll get to test them.

No good reason to. All the 'good' rares people want will not be able to be hunted at the start.

I'll probably get on earlier than I usually do, but that's about all I'll do. I don't get people that get up way, way early for these things (as soon as the servers go back online) and spam it until they're miserable. You can still play it the same amount of time if you pace yourself right, and it's better in the long run because you don't burn yourself out.

But... whatever floats your boat.

Damn, I wish I had as much free time as you guys. I'll probably be able to play hopefully by monday but between midterms, studying, and other crap its hard to find time to play.

I might log on before classes start to check things out.

Won't be too fun, considering most of the missions are group
and a lot of my friends won't be on.

I have this thing called "work" that I need sleep to do. That, coupled with my company's Christmas party tomorrow night (yeah, Christmas party on Jan. 23rd), means I'll probably log in tomorrow morning before work to get my free monies from the Casino - as for missions, probably after I get totally ripped at the party and go home will I even bother trying to log in.

I'll get on in the early afternoon, and while the last time I stayed up for an event, it was absolutely hilarious on the forums here, but I was up until 2 am with a full stomach (courtesy of IHOP), and I'm frankly looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow morning.

Let's see...
I'll probably wake up at 4:00 AM like usual.
Watch various videos on Netflix.
Play WoW.
Eat Breakfast.
Take a Shower.
Try logging onto PSU.
Leave for school
8:35-10:35 Art 251
10:35-11:40 Break
11:50-12:45 Bio 105
1:20ish Arrive Home
1:30ish Play PSU, hope that there isn't a rollback.
7:00ish Go eat out and then movies.
10:30ish Play PSU, WoW or FFXI(maybe)

I'm excited to play PSU tomorrow but I'm afraid that something will go wrong, resulting in a rollback.

Edit: No, I'm not staying up. When I tried to play MAG in the early hours of the morning, the update seemed late, so I didn't get to play until later in the day.

Yeah, most likely. I get off work at 9 tonight and I don't have to work tomorrow or have any classes....so yeah, i'll be up enjoying the events. :)

Same here. ^^ The Carnival will still be around whether I play early or not. I don't plan on changing my schedule just for an event.

why stay up just more too lose when it is rolled back

OldCoot
Jan 22, 2009, 04:34 PM
After the last two rollbacks took away hours of play, I will play a little in the morning and go to work as if nothing is different for the game. I lost most of my confidence that any big updates will come off without problems. Better now to wait so that others can test the content out for bugs.

Rust
Jan 22, 2009, 04:51 PM
lolno

I have better things to do (like sleeping ?).
Probably won't get on the game before tomorrow evening either, depends if I have people in my cardlist to party with or not.

Because it's an awaited event update doesn't mean I have to jump in on the next minute following the end of maintenance.

Jan 22, 2009, 05:57 PM
the only reason why i like getting on soon as servers are up is to check out the missions not rly hunting for anything just checking them out :P

Jan 22, 2009, 06:07 PM
EU as well, I'll just wake up and play.

Although it is an event, it'll probably be about 12 hours late and I'll have to go back to bed.

I'll log on sometime in the evening after work. No great rush.

Lol staying up all night is so not worth it imo. I guess if you're still young you can stay up all night and then all day the next and continue with your normal sleep schedule. But for old timers like myself, I find that staying up all night just for a game update messes the sleep schedule and my interest in the update at the time would be non-existant since I would be tired as crap haha. Its not one of those updates to stay up for in other words.

Anyways, I wake up around 2-3 am so I dunno, I suppose I'll do a run or something, I kinda went back on one of "breaks" from PSU so I think I'll be missing out on most of this event. I blame the lol jabronimaster and the fact I got all the gear I wanted as a JM meh.

Jan 22, 2009, 08:22 PM
I'll be up 10 am playing till 4 am lol

i'll be on around 12 pm - 1pm EST after my job at work because it is 10am west cost over there and everone is really at work and school. so that's a good time to log on.

This is good, one of the better things I've read today.

I'm going to stay up. I'm one of those people that gets too excited to sleep over silly things like these. I might nap if I do get seriously tired though. ^^;

Alnet
Jan 22, 2009, 08:50 PM
If I'm up late tonight, it's because I'm hunting my second Milla for as long as I can.

If I'm not up, then there's always time for it later.

Might try to get up early and on before work, but the rollbacks definitely have me cautious. Otherwise I'll just get on WAR.

2: wake up at 6:30 a.m., do personal hygiene and prepare to eat breakfast.
3: go to work at 7:30 a.m.
4: go home at 5:45 p.m.
5: play Carnival!
6: profit?

Short answer: i'm not waking up late. :wacko:

I wasn't planning to ( I have 9am college classes). I fell asleep at midnight, woke up at 3:30, I laid in bed for 2 hours trying to fall back to sleep so now I'm up for the rest of the day. Maybe if servers come back on before I leave for college, I'll be able to play a run or 2.

I didn't really want to stay up... yet here I find myself awake, and constantly refreshing the PSU website... >.>
