- You would think after 8 hours they would have noticed the quiet kid in the corner with glazed eyes, drool coming out of his mouth, and serious case of B.O.

- 36 hours is weak
- I feel bad for the boy and his family, but only gamming for 36 hours by is pretty common. Hackers have been known to spend much more time than that and i know teens spend that much time or more very commonly in the us. As a adult I would if I could stay way from family and work that long.
