Late Nighter's. - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Roa_Aoife · 02-09-2007, 02:01 PM

I've done my share of late nights on the Downs, especially during werewolf games. Of course, now that I have to get up at 6 AM to face a classroom of 3 yr olds, that's faded. Still, don't feel so bad if you're the only on the "Who's On-line" page. Remember, there are those of us who never come out of invisible mode.

We're there- you just won't know it until we post.

Funny to notice that I probably have'nt yet written to this thread as I should be the one to really call this mine...

If I don't have an early wake up call and there's something interesting going on, like RPGs or WW-games, I can hang around and participate to early morning hours (I guess I once played a heated ww-game up to 6 or 7 AM!). Happily that doesn't happen too often.

But what's much more normal is that the bedtime gets streched with an hour or two. So if I have thought that I should try to get to sleep around midnight (that's my normal rhythm), a game, an RPG post or an interesting discussion pushes that to 1.30-2 AM. That's more than commonplace.

But that's also understandable. My days are normally quite packed so the only time I can hang around here is basically the evenings or late nights...

Nice to see others share this condition.

Well, I haven't had the chance to stay up late on the Downs for a long time now that school started...but next week I have a short break so I might consider not going to bed so soon

Well now that I see you as a participant in the new WW game, I should imagine you'll be trying to stay up later? I know I'll be popping in much more often and far longer now. Well both of you are participants, Nogrod, Might, I look forward to seeing you here more often.

Well, vacation starts next week, so I might stay up later then usually, given that there are things to do here.
I'm pretty sad that the Quiz Forum isn't so active anymore...

Thanks to my being in my father's place I'm a late nighter - it's 3am here. This is very stupid, since I don't have anything to do in here (or in livejournal) but I still don't go to sleep, even though that would be sensible considering the time and the fact that I have to go to school early the day after tomorrow. But I'm not tired at all!

Tonight is a late night for me, which I don't usually have. I can't sleep, so this probably won't be the last post I make around here this night. Gives me time to re-read old posts, which is what I do a lot of the time here anyway.
