I remember back in college we used to have 40 hour sessions of Axis and Allies
the weekend before the week before finals. And just last week I went to a LAN
party where we played Quake III and Team Fortress for at least 10 hours a pop.

Heck, I can do 15 hours with LEGO standing on my head!

(...) But why would you want LEGO to stand on your head? It's hard to build with them standing way up there. Steve (27 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)
