i wouldnt call you an insomniac after one night of being up....
insomnia sucks...you never want it...
at least 2-3 times a month i go over 70 hours without being able to fall asleep...i get in bed...and i immediately become wide awake...its no fun.

You would need to be awake for a LOT longer than you were.
You know the story of the korean guy who died after playing starcraft 48 hours straight ? He died from a heart attack.

I get the impression that the OP was not even at 24 hours awake yet.  People can do this regularly (I have done this many times because of college)...It is quite another thing to be awake for another full day after that.  Besides, that unlucky korean is just one guy which hardly constitutes the norm.

I was going to mention the Korean guy but I couldn't find any reference links. But the point still stands if you keep your heart going at a fast pace without rest your going to have a heart attack.

The only incident I knew of was a Chinese dude who played WoW for 48 hours straight or so, and died because of thirst and starvation.

I wonder how much caffeine that guy had taken.  That will make your heart go nuts.

If I remember right he was at a internet cafe. So he must have had coffee.

Not really out of your mind. Once you get past about 4:00 you don't feel tired at all any more. It'll probably hit you around midday and you you'll be like "zomg, sleep".

I try not to cram too much killing/dying in one day. Played a shipload of 24/7 Karkand Addicted-2-Games server rounds for say 4 hours. I discovered the MEC ass./med rifle is the greatest! I envied the enemy when I was USMC. >_>

Might get in a round or two now, but duty calls.

You'll get used to spotting enemy medic kits lying on the ground and then hunting through the g36e's for an ak101
