since my flash cart's SRAM doesn't work, i've tried to complete several gba games in one sitting (cause i can't save). I remember playing charlie in the chocolate factory for about 6 hours straight and feeling really sick afterwards...and i didn't beat it.
Most hours of gaming straight.

It wasn't just me but a mate and I had a Pc and Ps2 set up so we were playing a joint game of diablo 2 and a joint game of FFX after 3 hours we'd swap machines this went on for about 18 or 19 hours. Great times.But by myself i can seem to just keep going aslong as i have coffee and smokes by my Mac or by the Ps2 maybe a day and a half at most. Lol i don't do this often maybe once a month - the trick is haveing the coffee in a thermos.

GANDHI AND HIS CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE“That government is best which governs least”; “That government is best which governs not at all” (Henry David Thoreau); Civil disobedience is a form of protest in which protestors deliberately violate a law. Classically, they violate the law they are protesting, such as segregation or draft laws, but sometimes they violate other laws, which they find unobjectionable, such as trespass or traffic laws (Peter Suber). Civil disobedience can be either violent or nonviolent. For the most part, you will see many nonviolent protests. The most famous of these nonviolent protestors was Gandhi. He led India away from British Control.Gandhi was born in to a family where he was the fourth child of his fathers’ fourth wife. As a child, he would steal and lie to his family, but because of his strong convictions Gandhi would almost immediately ask for forgiveness and return whatever he took. He remembered that sincere repentance and confession induced by love, rather than fear, had won him his father's forgiveness and greatest affections. At a very young age, 16, he had to care for his dying father, but because of his “lustful” urges towards his new wife, who was pregnant and near delivery, caused him to leave his fathers side and go to his wife. After just a few moments a servant knocked on the door and rushed Gandhi to his father, but his father had died before he could get to his side. A few days later his wife gave birth and the child then died soon after. Gandhi blamed himself for both deaths. Even at the ages of sixty, he was still writing, “shame of my carnal desire at the critical moment of my father's death . . . is a blot I have never been able to efface or forget” (Gandhi). A few years later, Gandhi left India and sailed to England to study law. Then, at the age 24, Gandhi, as a young new lawyer who struggled to find work in England because of his decent, set off for South Africa. When he bought a first-class train ticket, but was told that all Indians rode in the third-class cars; Gandhi refused to leave. The conductor called the police and Gandhi was thrown off the train along with his luggage. So Gandhi then chose to remain off the train and sat out in the cold night alone and scared to make a point. He sat there brooding over whether to return to India or fight, He chose the later of the two. Gandhi then became the informal leader for the Indians in South Africa. He would urge the Indians in South Africa to not cheat anyone, forget religious differences, and learn English. He then proceeded to write to, and got acceptance from, the railroad to allow Indians to ride first-class passage if they were “well-dressed” (http://www.kids-right.org). This was an incident, which affected him for the rest of his life.Gandhi’s biggest achievement was breaking India away from British control. The problem was that India was a British Colony, and while in many ways it was a benevolent rule, it was still rule by another. The Indian people wanted their independence, so they took many different courses of action to get it. The primary way that Gandhi went about this was with the Raid on the Salt Works. The Salt Act was put into effect when the British made it a crime for anyone in India to purchase salt from anyone but the British Government. It was a monopoly on a substance need to survive, both for humans and animals in the hot climate. It was against the law to make salt. The Raid on the Salt Works then began. Gandhi planned to use intentional violation of that law to put pressure on the British. First Gandhi sent this letter to the British Viceroy:Dear Friend, Before embarking on Civil Disobedience and taking the risk I have dreaded to take all these years I would fain approach you and find a way out. My personal faith is absolutely clear. I cannot intentionally hurt anything that lives . . . even though they my do the greatest wrong to me and mine . . . I hold the British rule to be a curse . . . It has impoverished the dumb millions by a system of progressive exploitation and by a ruinous expensive military and civil administration which the country can never afford.It has reduced us politically to serfdom. It has sapped the foundations of our culture . . . it has degraded us spiritually. . . This non-violence will be expressed through civil disobedience . . . My ambition is no less than to convert the British people through non-violence, and thus make them see the wrong they have done to India. I do not seek to harm your people. I want to serve them even as I want to serve my own . . .If the Indian people join me as I expect they will, the suffering they will undergo . . . will be enough to melt the stoniest hearts.In a reply to Gandhi, the Viceroy then replied with a short note, “His Excellency... regrets to learn that you contemplate a course of action which is clearly bound to involve violation of the law and danger to the public peace.” Gandhi's comment was, “On bended knee I asked for bread and I received a stone instead” (Gandhi).What happened was, Gandhi and his followers decided to march to the sea. This trek took about 24 days and was 250 miles long. They were welcomed into every village they passed through on their trip, and he spoke to large crowds within these towns. Finally, On April 5th, 1930, they finally reached their destination at the sea. Gandhi picked up some of the salt that had dried from the salt spray. The British deemed Gandhi a felon for breaking the law, but Gandhi had made his point and started an insurrection without arms. Villagers everywhere hurried to the sea with a pan, and made salt. As the marchers silently approached the salt plain, and the 400 guards with barbed wire, blocked the people from the salt spray, they were warned and ordered to leave. On police command the guards attacked the marchers hitting them with clubs, gun butts, and batons, but still not one marcher raised a hand even in self-defense. You could hear the cracking of skulls as the guards repeatedly beat the marchers, and as they fell more marchers would quietly move forward and in turn get struck down. Over 300 people were injured and hospitalized, two men had died, and before the month’s end more than sixty thousand people were arrested and behind bars—there was still no Indian violence. Gandhi was also arrested among these. But in the end the Indians won their independence from British control as the incident became an “embarrassment to the British Administration, their conscience was offended,” and the Indians never cringed, complained, or retreated. In essence England became powerless and India was invincible (kids-right.org).Gandhi was a great leader in India because of his use of Civil Disobedience and his ability to get people to follow him without much question. He became a legend in essence and also got the name Mahatma Gandhi, Mahatma means “Great Soul,” which he didn’t like because he didn’t believe he was that great, he just believed in what he was doing. The Civil Disobedience he used, in form of nonviolence and nonresistance, such as the “Raid on the Salt Works,” was a great way to make the British look bad and get India its independence. This was a perfect form of nonviolent Civil Disobedience. "I am too high born to be propertied, To be a second at control, Or useful serving-man and instrument To any sovereign state throughout the world."so in general for baout 15 straight hours
