Before playing osu!, do you drink some sort of energy drink, or have coffee, or anything with caffeine and etc?

I usually try not to drink anything like that and then play osu!

i used to drink energy drink when i still went to school, but now im not anymore.
i do drink some coke every now and then.
i used to have trouble playing osu after drinking 2-3 cans of energydrink because i was too shaky:P

Yea I like the rush i general. Playing osu! or not.
Liut

The most I've ever had was one coffee when I was younger; didn't like the taste so never drank it again.
Energy drinks are a big fat no.

I like energy drinks in-general, but I don't like playing osu! after drinking one, doing better-then-usual on a song, and then realizing it's only because I drank an energy drink :p

Black coffee~ I would use energy drinks, but I never buy 'em.

But it helps so much for studying even if its bad for your health..
wouldn't have passed a lot of exams without them.

I drink coffee for exams. But my head hurts though whever I drink coffee.
For osu, no. My arm twitches from time to time and miss because of it.
MMzz
Nope, they make me fall asleep.

Whenever I drink caffeine, I want to play osu! too much and can't focus on exams :o

Depends on what you take. I've never done crack, and never will, but I imagine it's not productive when playing video games.

I don't like to drink energy beverages because of shaking, that made my gameplay hit 100s...

But for some reason I didn't stop drinking those...
Zelmarked
Hitting an amp energy drink right now. It's part soda-part energy drink. They sell them as single cans so I don't pick em as main main energy drink. Grape and mixed berry are my fav of Amp.

I used to be a Monster energy drink guy. Then the store one day was out of stock but they had "Slap". Been doing that since.

i have a huge collection of monster cans in my room. however, i never drink monster before playing osu! because it makes me shake, especially if i'm nervous

You'd probably be better off after a couple drinks than using stimulants (I've seen a number of people do much better at DDR when coming back from Beer and Wings night... we called this "Johnny Fevering", after the WKRP episode where Johnny Fever does better at a sobriety reaction test the more he drinks). For a performance enhancing drug, I'd imagine you'd want something more like lorazepam or clonazepam... anti-anxiety medication that will cut out nerves and prevent jumpiness, but still leave you clear-headed enough to play well.

If you want a stimulant... tea is probably one of the better choices mentioned, as it contains theophylline, which is similar to caffeine, but produces more of a mellow buzz than a jolt. It still contains caffeine though.

coffee when i wake up and tea at night, a few good hours before i go to bed. ran out of coffee though so i've been going at tea twice a day now. not primarily for osu of course but it's a bonus :oops:

I was about to get pretty annoyed at someone for necroposting.
