Long story short is WoW: Cataclysm comes out @ 2AM CST on Tuesday. I have to wake up @ 6AM for class tomorrow morning so I'm planning on staying awake from 6AM tomorrow till 10PM tuesday. Any tips?

Thanks
Aderral. lots and lots of it! and you will also be able to focus hardcore so you will be all good

if you have never taken it, just take about 30MG of it(6 to 1 pills depending on dosage of each) seriously, your friends who have ADHD have aderral, and your in school. it should be REALLY easy. and only costs like $10 for quite a bit.

you wont be able to eat while on it though, so eat plenty before, and try forcing something down.

Don't forget to factor in the Blizzard coefficient when it comes to patches/server maintenance/expansions. I fully expect the servers to be down at least 3 hours more than they're scheduled to be. And then on top of that, the servers will have queues, lag, and crash often with the amount of traffic they'll see tomorrow and on Wednesday.

Because of this coefficient, it's always stupid to plan to stay up late on the first day of a major patch/expansion just like it's stupid to plan days off around them too. Wait a few days or a week even, and plan your binge around a time when you know the servers will be more stable.

After you talk about all the games you play. You can't talk. I play wow and enjoy it. I also work go to school and hangout with friends.
The whole notion of "if you play wow you have no life" is ridiculous.

And stop saying wow sucks. Let people play there own games. I found guild wars boring after awhile v

I remember those days. Not school-wise though. Been out of school for ages. Anyways, with coffee, after awhile no matter how much you space the cups, you will get jittery and have stomach issues. Same with the energy drinks. My advice is Ginseng tea splashed with vitamin B12 every 15 - 30 mins. Throw in some Ginkgo Biloba later to stimulate the brain.

For a game? seriously...

Well I hope the schooling is college and I hope you're going on your own dime. Any of the fallout from your poor decisions should be primarily felt by you.

Old, but still...
