Out Of Curiosity. . .

How many of us are up this late working on stuff? Or just messing around? (3:42 AM). I seem to be seeing alot of night stuff, just curious.

For those of us with non-gaming day jobs, "zero-dark-thirty" is the perfect time for game development...

Last week between tuesday and Sunday I got 19 hrs sleep. I work on our game from 4 to 8 hrs a day after work. *rarely go to bed before 1am. Though a quarter of that time is wasted reading forums... =P

I'm not allowed. My wife requires me to go to bed with her no later than 9:30 to 10pm. I'm happy to comply (wink wink).

I love GIR.......Zim: "What's the 'G' stand for?" GIR: "I have nooo ideeea!...." ;p
Anyways, I usually sleep 8 hours and rarely stay up past 11 or 12....I do somehow tend to work very well late at night though....i've never been able to explain this phenomenon.... anyone here major in Human Biology or something of the sort?
