Anyone trying to keep going without drinking, eating or sleeping was probably never going to win the race anyway because it would bite their performance toward the end.
People overlook this a lot. If you're going beyond one lockout on a fight and not taking a decent break, you're gonna get sloppy. It doesn't just happen in gaming. I see people push themselves way too often and sometimes I get to hear them and I can tell when they start to get tired. People clown themselves too often thinking they can go one more round.
