Sylly,
That's a lot of EQ. I suppose I have fallen asleep at the keyboard once or
twice myself. One time in particular I remember being tired and taking the
boat ride from Freeport to Butcherblock. I fell asleep at the keyboard and
awoke several hours later to
you are hungry
you are thristy
you are out of food
you are out of drink
scrolled up and the buffer has been full of miscellaneous chatter and
LOADING, PLEASE WAIT... I had probably taken the round trip about 12 times.
It's a good thing that you can't die of starvation in this game.
I can't say as I've ever lost my corpse, as I REALLY hate logging and
leaving it lying around. I retrieve before camping whenever possible. I
did leave it in the Savant's room in Lower Guk the other night when 1/3 of
the zone was LinkDead at any given time. It got kinda ugly in there that
night.
