Prep for beta! Supplies & such - Maeve - 08-16-2013

So has everyone done their prep for beta starting today? I just went shopping and bought all my essential, carefully selected gaming supplies:

[Image: yqnz.png]
  • Boost Juice - For a bit of a boost (ha) when my energy levels are low.
  • Coconut macaroons - just because they are the perfect one handed snack
  • Camembert cheese - because when isn't a good time for this stuff? Am I right?
  • Ben & Jerry's Choc chip cookie dough - No explanation required.
  • An orange & an apricot bar - to offset the damage of the above Laugh
  • Oh and I'll have a pot of green tea on the side as well for when I feel like drinking something warm!

Everyone is different so do tell - what do you find essential for your epic gaming session?

I don't got a picture to share but I've got a bunch of that wonderful hot beverage Apple Cider. A pitcher of water and an electric water kettle to make it all! And cherries! Lots of, lots of cherries. And maybe some cold pizza with a nearby in reach microwave.

Lol I actually did the exact same thing.
I got:

Cran-apple juice
1 gallon of drinking water
protein bars
half dozen plums
Chef boyardee soup
a thing of raisins.

I'm good to go!

Nice!  

My prep for beta entails a pillow and blanket for my couch, where I am about to go to sleep for 3 or 4 hours till my alarm goes off at 1:58 am.  And some whiskey. I am going camping this weekend, so I only get to play until about noon tomorrow morning, so I didn't stock up on stacks. I will probably forget to eat during these 10 hours.

I am a grown-ass adult and I NEVER go on gaming binges. But I love being able to do what I want so here I am, preparing for gaming from 2 am to 12 pm!

I got nothin'! Actually dealing with the stomach flu, so I just hope to be able to sit up tomorrow long enough to play! Frustrated

And in that case? Water, lots of water...

Coffee -- black, two sugars. And hours of trance music.

Ha, sleep! Many have tried taking a nap today and almost all have failed. God speed brave one, god speed. 

+1 for booze -1 for whiskey Tongue

I work at 930 in the morning. Game goes live at 4, my time... I'm probably going to stay up till launch, get Kaln made, stare at it for ten minutes and then sleep. Then, go to work, come home, and play for days. All the days.

I envy you all.  I work 12hr shifts all through out the beta weekend so no play for me.  Sad  However if I were I'd be buying a case of beer and I'd be good to go.

All I got is a couple cans of Pringles, carrots and some juice. >.>

I am brewing a metric ton of tea. Black, green, white, red; you name it, I'm making it. Chocolate chai, mint, everything. Experimenting with some iced green.

It's a guilty pleasure. :D

Six liters of diet pepsi and a pineapple.  Ready to go!

Pot of Coffee, and Pea Soup...

Don't judge! My French roots gave me an insatiable craving for Pea Soup at all times.

And as customary, I slept for the past three days in constant intervals. Hibernation, complete. Sleepy

I don't plan on stopping till I pass out at my desk... knowing me I'll last three hours.
