Seriously there was a dude on another forum I used to frequent, a few years ago now, who was diabetic and died while playing Civ 4 overnight because he forgot to check his sugar levels. Was found by his sister the next morning. Title: Re: This is how I want to die Post by: DonutKing on 02/08/2011, 04:26 PM I just found the thread but you need a login to view it.
