All right, so it's about 12pm, I get a party invite from a dear old friend of mine. Normally this isn't a problem, but I didn't go to bad that night before. So at that time I've been up for like 19-20 hours. I was only 9.3k tnl, so I told myself "ok level, wait for replacement, then go to bed".

So we party in Cape Terrigan, now it's about 3-3:30pm so now it's about 23-24 hours awake. I'm getting pretty tired, and I tell the party that, we all laugh, HEHEHE.

So this is the fun part! Alright so I play the ps2 version, my tv is at the foot of my bed, so I play in my bed. I'm a little tired, so I'm laying down while I play. Yep, I feel sleep. Mid mob.

It's 7:00 I wake up, look at my tv and holy crap, I was still playing the game! AND I AM ALIVE!!

My former party members kept me alive for 3 hours! I guess I almost died a ton =P

So if you see these people around give them a /wave ^^

Sleet
Feure
Guero
Aureen
Tizzie

now I'm on 3 hours of sleep, so I'm going back to bed! goodnight every lol

Oh yeah! Thanks to the ls AutobotX for making me feel better about falling sleep, and sharing that they've done it do. =P

I'll admit I've been there before. Once in the Jungles, I fell asleep mid-party, they kept me alive for a while, like 10-15 minutes, but when I woke up they were all gone. I was still alive too, I appologized to everyone in the party. Like your party they were all very understanding.

I try not to let it happen but, sometimes it just can be helped.

Ive done it before too, thank god I play a melle class, and the PT was being PLed in the dunes trying to kill a 200xp Pugil.

I fell asleep for abot 7 minutes, When I woke up, I hit combo and killed it. Thank god noone noticed, that would have been embarrasing.

OMG.... My last pt as whm last month.

It's about 5am, so that makes it like midnight in Japan. Sure enough, I had been in a JP pt as the only NA probobly because they couldn't find a whm. I straight out just dozed off mid mob about an hour into the pt. To my suprise, I wake up three hours later just standing there with no pt.

Here's the fun part. I check the log... They kept killing things and left me afk in the pt the entire time. The blm started main healing. Then every one died and the pt leader sent me a tell saying he was sorry that the pt had to disband. This was followed by a {Goodnight!} then a {I'm sorry} {Good Morning!}^^ W W W

I suppose the pt leader was so considerate that he wouldn't kick me from the pt without me knowing it. I looked at my status and I was more than halfway into my next lv. They must have pt'd with me just leeching exp for a good hour and a half.

I can't believe how kind that was.

can't say i ever do that but my brother does this on a regular basis. Thing is he's a ranger and will fall asleep in the middle of a pull. So whenever I party a lower job with him I make sure he has his cell phone next to his ear so i can call him wake him up. For everyone who has this happened to them: PUT THE CONTROLLER DOWN! GO TO BED! That's why there's a auto-translate phrase for it: {I'm getting sleepy}. Sleep is your friend :P

An LS member of mine used to be infamous for this, so much that we actually called falling asleep in a party "pulling a Hito". Luckily, he was with us most of the time it happened, so it didn't really matter. We'd just try to find a BLM in the area that could D2 and get his *** warped back to his home point. Was still funny as hell though.

Ok i geuss im pretty bad too >.<
One night, instead of going to qufim at level 20, my party wanted to go kill beetles near Jeauno. We were there for about an hour, and thats when i dozed. Since we had 2 THF, and i was one of them, i didnt really do anything except attack since i wasnt the puller. So, i had been asleep for about an HOUR and i was still asleep in the party. I got a <Congratulations!> <call14> and I woke up, being level 21 ^.^

I thought this was awesome, my party was either really nice, or didnt notice that i was not doing anything....

Nice :-]

A few similar incidents spring to mind.

Possibly my favourite was while fighting Amikiri with myself and Naoya tanking Amikiri ( both nin 75 ), Naoya fell asleep with amikiri around 50% hp.

Naoya is the _king_ of falling asleep during events, he has fallen asleep during Byakko, Kirin, promvyion, etc.

I fell asleep in a JP party I had recently in Cape Terrigan. I must've dozed off right before a pull, and when I woke up, the mob was half dead. I said {I'm sorry.} Then one of the rngs that I was partying with, (he knew some english) said "sleepy?". then I said "kind ok". The party disbanded about 45 minutes later.

Now I know not to play at 3 am.

Got a story to relate to this one.

I was parting in Garbage Sh*tadel with my WHM at the time...and this was about 9 months ago. We got invite a DRK (name long forgotten) and we start getting really great experience when, all of the sudden, the DRK just stops. Assuming he fell asleep, a quick remedy that sometimes works is to <call1> like 5 times. Initially he woke up, and about 30 mins later, he again stopped.

This time it seemed for good. We allowed him to stay, as he was, in the pt for a good 30 minutes or so, then we eventually had to kick him cause it was getting late, and the xp wasn't very good with one less player.

Well, he remains standing for another 45 minutes...just standing, right in the middle of our pt. When suddenly, he twitches. Leader immediately sends /tells of apologies but it was in vain. The lifeless elvaan did not respond. About 5 minutes later, he started moving again, but this time...he just ran into the wall and wouldn't stop running. Long story short (Which i haven't been doing a good job of up to this point), about 10 minutes later he caught aggro and died a very quick death. We all figured that he was a PS2 user and probably had is controller still in hand and, after that last twitch, he must have leaned up against the directional button and not stirred enough to wake up ;;

Moral of the story: Drink caffeine folks... /random{death} really must suck.
