Mountain Dew: Gamer Fuel?
Ladios:
I love the blue raspberry for gaming. It gives me this psychological thing, I suppose from the taste, that I feel like its an energy drink at first, only minus the whole... killing me thing...
Grampy:
I just came back from a lan party (3man), we had 12 bottles of mountain dew and it still didn't manage to keep us awake. :p

Mana energy drinks is where its at.
I never actually bought it, I just drink diet sunkist, cause im diabetic.
The caffiene in the several cans i drink a day seems to be enough for me

At some point you need more than sugar and caffeine to keep going, snickers bars are in fact one of the best ways to get actual fuel (peanuts) into your body (not energy bars because they are just moar sugar).
Caffeine speeds up your metabolism, sugar is easily turned into energy. The combination of caffeine and sugar does give you energy but it also eats up your limited stores of carbs and when those are gone you crash, hard.
Next time you have a lan party and you want to wipe the floor with your friends bring caffeine, sugar and trail mix.

I like the blue Gamer Fuel. Never gotten a whole bottle, though... :(
I like cream soda more, honestly...
