What I really want to know is how those in bat phone guilds do not manage to mess up their lives/health when they might have to work in 3 hours after a 4:30 AM raid.

Section 8 housing, food stamps, unemployment checks go to extra ramen noodles, weed and expired cans of Surge on ebay.

I am in dat import export business n'mean

I work 40 hours a week. I simply can't play during US primetime, because that's when I sleep. If I really wanna make a raid, like sky (usually) or Efreetis (rarely), I'll take the sleep debt and only get like 5 hours of sleep. It sucks, but I do that way less since it definitely takes a toll on your body. I play like 5 hours a day. That's enough to attend the majority of raids, surprisingly.

24 hours on, 48 hours off

6 dollar sudafed box at wal-mart = 150 dollars on da streets

I work month on month off.
For month off, I play 135hrs a week
For month on, I'm restricted to maybe 80.

Yep. If you don't want to spend / have the time to spend playing, there's not much of a time commitment to raiding atm. The only time consuming raids are Sky, VP train wars, and Inny / Cazic with 80 of your closest friends from other guilds derping up the zone.

Wow, what kind of job is that?? :confused:
