Combat Application Tourniquet
Up to two hours, then you start getting iffy. Of course, you should have called for an ambulance right away so it shouldn't matter.
thanks
This thread already disturbs me...

I can see it now:
Oh damn, I cut myself really bad there. I'd better apply a tourniquet.
Hmm... I wonder how much longer I can keep playing before I have to get to the hospital... I'd better ask.

Conversation I had a few years back, in another game. The other person in this little exchange usually has perfect typing. In this instance, it was all lowercase.
I'm reproducing this from memory, but it went something like...
"afk sec"
"No prob."
"sorry back"
"'s okay. What was it?"
"oh just injured myself"
"Uh, jeez, hope it's not serious."
"nah but may be slow typing with one hand bleeding"
"...wait, what?"
"well i slashed open my foot on my desk"
"Uh."
"then i jerked in my chair and hit back of my head on the shelf"
"Jeez, why are you STILL HERE? Go take CARE of yourself!"
"its okay not really painful just a lot of blood on my head"
"Yeah, scalp wounds do that. But seriously GO AFK AND STAY AFK."
"its okay i have tissues"
"Don't make me GO OVER THERE and MAKE YOU LEAVE THE KEYBOARD."

Thats just wrong. I played everquest. Even when it took me nearly 18 hours straight to get the Ghoulbane for part of the Epic on my SK, I still knew when to quit. Sheesh.

Well, there was this one TF...I forget which, but this was back before the 'speed TF' culture really took off in CoH, so it was an older TF and running into three hours or so.
Anyway. Leader announced a five minute break so we could all grab drinks and so on. I told the team I was gonna make some coffee. The tanker agrees, he's grabbing tea himself. Controller laughs, says something to the effect of caffeine being a good idea.
Blaster agrees with us. Blaster says he's low on energy too, and he's gonna grab some coke.
None of us think much about that. I mean, in context, we figure he's getting some cola.
Then he says he's got three straws in his desk drawer.
It eventually becomes apparent...he's not talking about coke the carbonated beverage, but rather the sort of coke that comes in lines of white powder that you inhale.
I mean, I know most of us on that team were using caffeine, and I suppose it's just a matter of scale, but...
I wonder if that guy would say no to Superadine.

That is patently absurd. Who would do that? In fact, I would be ashamed to say that I knew these people. I know of a guy who I roomed with who pushed off meals and held out on urinating longer than most people... but then he would GO eat, and GO to the freakin' bathroom.
Just think, I was at work when someone told me. I had a hard time focusing after that.

In all seriousness, I'd wager the OP was asking for RP purposes.

If I wait too long the hunger reflex will eventually go away and I'll forget to eat. Otherwise, I'd say I'm a lot like your previous roomie as far as my gaming habits go revolving around bio necessities. I would never be a filthy scoundrel over a game like some of the horror stories we hear.

You sir, have led me to places where Google was not meant to go.
And later, Google: Images. I hate myself now.
Poopsocking.
*shakes fist at Inokis*
At least the sock used in the practice is for external use, not as some kind of plug.
LOL i didn't link it, all I did was iterate what I was told. It was akin to what you said about the jar so I felt it was somewhat relative.
Never did I google it nor did I care to The description of what I was told was bad enough, I didn't need further visuals.
Sorry

The hilarious thing is, if right now I claimed to have a video of its use, 50% of the people wouldn't click on it due to it being about... that. The other 50% wouldn't click on it because they'd think it was actually Kero 9 Destiny.
Yet no one would know which it was!
FYI, here's the video.
