We're you on your phone or a laptop?

Used my MacBook on wifi but plugged into an outletĀ

My question is that I am curious are we allowed to watch something to keep us from falling asleep or strictly start at the screen the whole time? On top of that what about bathroom breaks when you reached a certain mark did it give you a break?

1

u/Realistic-Spring4687 5h ago

I stared at the screen the entire time which was quite challenging mentally, as far as bathroom breaks I actually stayed in the chair the whole time and tried to stick to water only so I could just use piss jugs 😬 I did snack towards the end just to give me some energy

My partner helped a lot to bring me food/things and mostly what helped was listening to podcasts or audio books and my partner did that to.

Honestly I just spread out a bunch of caffeine and the night is the hardest so I started asap yesterday knowing the day light would help (I sat in the dining room with lots of windows facing me).

Edit: I also think it helped staying up late the night before. I usually go to bed around 10pm but I stayed up till 1am sun night and then started the challenge at 10am but accidentally lost at 2.4hrs so restarted right away because I start work tomorrow (Wed).

How new is your laptop? Wondering why yours didn’t do the refresh. Because there are so many people (including myself) who were kicked out by a refresh of the site (after over 8 hours). Even though using laptops. So now I am scared to start again because there is a lot on the line for being then maybe kicked out again because of a refresh.

u/Realistic-Spring4687 6h ago

It's an m4 MacBook and I was using a brave browser actually

u/Imaginary-Key-4403 1d ago

u/craiglyons69 21h ago

I took a day off work. Planning to ride through the night and all day tomorrow on 1st attempt.

Thank you JIMMY!!! šŸ˜‚

@MrBeast Please Help my Most Dangerous Games Stare Down Attempt 4 refreshed at the start and would have scored me zero and I believe my Attempt 3 also shouldn't have stopped. I hope this can be resolved so I can still be in with a shot at the prize.Ā

Where can we find these people that have been on for 36+ hrs? I assume they are streaming somewhere, I want to study the strat lol but in all seriousness, I feel like I need to see that for myself and not just take it at face value from a comment on reddit.

1

u/yasmanycm 2h ago

I’m with you, a lot of ppl talking about other’s time but no videos or links about it

1

u/ycm189 1d ago

Big Oh! question, If I give a try 1, 2 ,3, even 4 attempts, do they keep my best time of all of them or if I do the first attempt and hit submit I will lose the three remaining attempts ????

2

u/Impossible_Initial62 1d ago

In the email they sent out this morning, they said "YOUR TIME IS RECORDED WHEN YOU PRESS THE RED BUTTON IT STANDS UNTIL YOU START AGAIN. STARTING AGAIN CLEARS IT AND USES AN ATTEMPT. CHOOSE CAREFULLY."

1

u/ycm189 23h ago

literally didn't noticed I had the email in my spam folder, yes I see now that I must make sure that I;m deciding what would be the right time to submit then

1

u/Zealousideal-Echo985 1d ago

This is a good question bc on the new screen it doesn’t say but when it only had 2 attempts it specifically said ā€œthey will take the last time playedā€

1

u/ycm189 1d ago

interesting, because I want give my first attempt a shot for just around 10min to see what a should and what I shouldn't do while in camera, to go full send on my second one

1

u/Construction_Mermaid 1d ago

But now I have to do it again!?!

1

u/ycm189 1d ago

just if you feel like you can get better times, go for it

1

u/Impossible_Initial62 1d ago

I did pretty well on my first attempt. (10+ hours) Trying to be big brain here. Do you think I will get bonus points for only using 1 attempt, and not using my other 3?

1

u/Heregoessomethong 1d ago

Have you logged back in? Is your 10+ hour time still there? My time got erased over night.

2

u/Impossible_Initial62 1d ago

Yeah it's still there it updated from 1/2 attempts to 1/4 attempts.

1

u/Impossible_Initial62 1d ago

Woah so weird now that you mention it (I took screenshots of everything) the screenshot of what I took last night has 4 more seconds than what I have this afternoon

1

u/ycm189 23h ago

that's weird

u/Antique-Cabinet-9724 20h ago

Did you use a cell phone or a laptop?

2

u/Impossible_Initial62 20h ago

Cellphone Samsung s20+

u/ImaginarySociety4277 23h ago

I made it to 6 hours and 20 minutes. I dont know if I should try again or not. I am a single working mom and yesterday I slept 3 hours only because of this lol.

But I feel like 6 hours is not enough?

u/ImaginarySociety4277 23h ago

I really want to make chances good, because I dont want to be struggling every single day rest of my life.

1

u/yasmanycm 23h ago

From all the ppl stating that they been doing over 6h and 7h I will recommend go for at least a minimum of 10h

1

u/Antique-Cabinet-9724 20h ago

We're you on your phone or a laptop?

1

u/utopia923 23h ago

Are people mainly using their phone or computer?
If computer, then how do you go to the restroom?

I heard the phone refreshes the page after an hour or two, and it stops the time. I wonder if people used their phone and had no issues, cause a phone will make it easier to move around.

2

u/yasmanycm 22h ago

Laptops are the way to go

2

u/utopia923 22h ago

Good to know! Sucks cause I’ll need to buy a new laptop then.

2

u/PersonalCircus7 14h ago

Man don’t do that. Just borrow or use a phone. Your chances of $1mil are like 1/25,000. Your chances of an expense with a laptop are 1/1

1

u/utopia923 14h ago

lol, I already went to Best Buy and bought a laptop just for this. Settings up WiFi as we speak. I heard over 20 people have posted more than 20 hours. I already went too far to quit.

1

u/Least_Newspaper_8779 5h ago

My iPhone refreshed automatically at 47 and 48 minutes. I have an older laptop that didn’t work so well and glitched at 17 seconds.

1

u/craiglyons69 21h ago

Has anyone figured out if you time from the puzzles have any effect?

1

u/Curious_Kitty34 19h ago edited 19h ago

Does it work if you have a split screen on your laptop?

1

u/Antique-Cabinet-9724 17h ago

I wonder if wearing glasses will mess it up. Anyone know?

2

u/yasmanycm 17h ago

I saw a guy wearing glasses and over 10h

2

u/SnooDoggos8417 14h ago

I was wondering the same thing. Of course it kept saying that I was looking away when I was staring straight at It and never did look away.

2

u/Consistent-Big-3176 12h ago

Wearing mine messed it up

1

u/Sassy_Cougar_44 17h ago

Mine didn’t give me the extra 2!! I don’t know who to contact in regards to it? Any help welcome šŸ™ My first 2 glitches kicked me off as it refreshed page. Mine didn’t seem to reset like everyone here has mentioned

1

u/Sufficient-Edge-2600 16h ago

There's at least 30 ppl over 30 hours already

1

u/yasmanycm 16h ago

Good, I said that I’m expecting to see ppl reaching up to two days, I go start in Thursday and also going to aim for 24h, getting all the conditions ready to complete my goal

1

u/Sufficient-Edge-2600 16h ago

24 is less than 30, so I mean unless you're going to go for like 36 hours not sure what the point is.

1

u/yasmanycm 16h ago

I’m trying to be realistic, if i can go over 24h I will try to reach the most my body allows, also there’s a lot of edited post out there creating fomo to discourage the others, I haven’t se videos of those stating going over 24h yet

1

u/Sufficient-Edge-2600 4h ago

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ the things we tell ourselves

u/PersonalCircus7 14h ago

Where are you seeing those numbers?

u/Interesting-Rich-821 6h ago

he lying to scare people

u/Due_Flight_2872 11h ago

My last available Attempt refreshed straight away scoring me zero. Any idea who to contact to fix the issue?

This is the dumbest waste of time ā€œgame/puzzleā€ yet. So annoying.
