[razgriz 25th inf.]

Eh. I had to pull one because my sleep schedule was totally fucked, and im really not that tired, but i have this feeling that its gonna suck in two hours. anybody have any halluncination stories from all-nighters, or the rare double-all-nighter?

[*CRAZYHORSE*]

Heh "Rare" double-all-nighter.
It will take you some days before you actually start hallucinating.
Can't sleep take a fap, you'll be out in minutes.

You think i didnt try that? Geez. whatever, im in a decent mood.

Watch a whole series of something, read a webcomic, play a game you're really digging or that gets that adrenaline pumping, that keeps me up. I did it when I watched the whole Red vs Blue, Arby n the Chief and Dethklok Metalocalypse, also with Quake 4 and about half of Doom 3. Not all in the same night of course.

Watch a whole series of something

THIS!
OR read a bunch of books. last all nighter I pulled I read the fellowship of the ring. most books make much more sense in one sitting.
when playing games avoid multiplayer (humiliation ho!)
Live streams are really good if you would normally miss it due to timezones.
Also sugary drinks and food, get up and move around to keep you awake as well.

Whenever I need to pull an all-nighter, I drink something with a high caffiene content, usually while eating something spicy.

[razgriz 25th inf.]

Aw shit, i pull out and do what i needed to do today and slept and now i can't use your advice! For now anyways. I got that big airsoft game coming up, and my sleep schedule will fuck itself again before that, so i thank you all for the advice.

I remember an awesome all-nighter when I GM'd a freeform Cthulhu adventure while drifting in and out of sleep. Then we made a body part hit chart for RPGs with 100 different body parts (that included the soul as body part #100) and played a game of NeoViking using said chart. My character got hit in the soul twice, which destroyed it, so he bought a cyborg soul.

I think my mind did get a bit screwy after being awake for 3 days once.
But hallucinations? never got them from sleep deprivation.

There was this experiment (I can't remember who did it or when but it was a long time ago) where they kept a man awake for a couple of weeks and he had pretty intense hallucinations of pink elephants and such.

Pink elephants on parade!

I've found that two caffeine pills are the best way to stay awake through the night. I take one at midnight, one at 8:00AM, and then for some reason my body keeps itself awake during daylight hours.

I hate it when you ride your bike back from a night out and the sky is already starting to get blue and birds already start singing. It just really gives you energy and makes it hard to fall asleep.
