hello acie,
i don't think so! hehe i t will surely gives me eye strain and head ache! haha
i can stay long in front of the computer but not on straight 12 hrs or more...haha just 5 hours straight is enough for me to get tired eyes...hehe
maybe if there's some minutes interval in between, maybe i can...

It's plain crazy! I will never do that!! lol =D IT's harmful not only to our eyes but also our physical and mental state.. haha =D
Imagine, staring at the screen from am to dawn, means we wont be able to leave the com right?? And with that, it means no meals for us as well!! With no food, no drinks, how is one expected to last one week??
Even if one can, i guess they would have been blinded after one week.. lol =D

Me too acie. I can't and dare not to stare at the computer for a long time. Moreover it meaningless as well to do such crazy thing that will hurt our eyes as well as our health. Unless there is a super and grand reward of a considerable sum of cash or a hundred million us dollar for the winner, many people will take part in this challenge for sure
At the present moment I usually spend a few hours working on my pc on and off while doing household chores at home. The ceiling lights cast on the screen, especially reading or typing on page with background in white, will make my eyes blurred during night time. Therefore I seldom working on computer in night time. But it is no problem to play computer games with dark color background
Take care and happy posting

Yeah acie, I play almost every day for at least ... ... it usually depends on the mood of the day. Sometimes I really don’t have any mood to work at mylot site, or to do any others thing I just engross in playing games for several hours to kill the boredom. But this doesn’t happen very often. I always try to refrain myself from not to consume too much in playing it. At the moment I concentrate in playing a couple of games only. It is Adventure of Zuma Deluxe It is available in PopCap Games.

If no external force(read parents, friends etc.) is present, I can do that for one or two days, since I will have a break of 8 hours anyway. But for one week straight... I would rather accept the defeat. Mine eyes are too dear to me!
Good luck for the participants, anyway.

I had hereditary eye problems and I perfected it somewhat to higher degree :) Now I own two glasses with numbers (-6) and (-7) respectively, whatever they mean. Still gathering courage to have an operation. That seems a toss of coin to me: either your eyes get better or they are lost completely!

Hi, acie_21. I am on the computer most of the day, but I know that I can't stare at the computer for this long. I will have to take me a break. My eyes would be so tired too. And, I would get very sleepy. I could not challenge myself on something as tiresome as this.

Hi acie...i can't do that either...that's too much...the most for me would be only 4 hours..and i would rest and go back again if i would have unfinished things yet...

I will admit that I spend a lot of time on the computer, but I don't think that I have ever gone for sixteen hours straight without any kind of a break at all. I spend the majority of the day on the computer, but it is rare that I am on the computer for more than two hours straight without taking a break of some sort. So, in answer to your question, there is no way that I am up for the challenge that you are offering.

Hi Acie,
I will not do that. there are lots of productive things that i can do than staring at the computer and doing nothing for the wholeday or week. i will spend my time wisely. i have lots of things to accomplish and kids to attend to.
no. i can't keep up to it!
