I know this sounds like a stupid question, but can osu! give you a fever..? Friday night, I was playing osu! for 5 hours straight, and within the last 30 minutes of gameplay, I made 4 new top scores consecutively, giving me about 440 PP. I was so excited and happy, but I realized it was like 10:10 PM, and that it was time to go to bed. So I quickly poured myself a cold glass of milk, chugged it all down, and immediately went to brush my teeth. While brushing, I started shaking uncontrollably, and this was a sign that I might be getting a fever... and what do you know, during the middle of the night, i had a 98 degree fever. My mom is fairly convinced that I was "clicking circles" too much, and that it was screwing up my brain. Now I want to ask this, does osu! screw up your mind.. and can it give you a fever..?

Maybe you got too excited...

If you're tapping for 5 hours it kinda makes sense you'd be shaking....

osu! won't give you a fever. Playing games without break will.

Well, I mean I play around 5 hours of league everyday of the weekend, and yet I don't get sick..?

I hear that being too excited and happy might give you a fever.

No. It's probably something else.

I try to talk to my mom that maybe there was something wrong with the milk, but she is still convinced that it is because of osu! ..

Surely because of osu!
Only one reason for this: You play too much.

It's unlike LoL. 5 hrs of LoL = around 5~10 games.
But for osu! 5 hrs = around 50~100 songs!
And oh, if you say you play LoL without a break. I'd say you're taking a break when you're killed, though. :v

I, too, will get a fever if I play more than 2.5 hrs of osu! (Actually I never reach that. lol)

So...

this thread gave me a fever
Kouya-
Are you sure that you didn't just give yourself a fever instead ?

Maybe it was the milk... No one chugs down a cold glass of one after playing osu, plus it's kinda stupid to drink water right before going to bed

98 degree fever...

98.6 is the population's average base temperature. Unless we're talking Celsius in which case you're melting/on fire.

Am I missing something? Also, you probably just caught a virus a few hours/days ago and it just is now starting to kick in.

Thanks for the advice! I think it sounds reasonable that I got a fever from playing 5 hours of osu! ... Normally I don't actually play this much, but since the summer started for me last Thursday, I just had a day off, and I was like "screw it, playing osu! all day..."
Chamelo
Anyway, can you even stay in osu! for that long?
tbh, I got bored after an hour. :P

Everyday I play osu! for about 1 - 1 1/2.. This is like the only game I can play on the weekdays, and I'm actually good (decent) at it. O.O
kirueggy
Just take a break from time to time dude.

To be honest no one is gonna be the #1 osu player any time soon... No need to rush :P

You can have osu marathons but make sure you're prepared for them, don't come back from school or something all tired and think "hmm I should spend 8 hours on osu"

Explain this OP?
If you had a 98 degree fever you'd be dead by now. Literally cooking yourself...

The OP is American, so he's obviously referring to Fahrenheit smh. And I don't think he even has a fever, maybe fatigue.
