I got mine right about the 12 hour total mark (10 hours as #1). The duo behind me (who sat with me for about 8 of my 10) had not seen another for 24 hours after mine dropped. Not sure on total time because it had still not dropped as of very early this morning.
If you want a stone you should have a plan within the current given rules, be that handing off the account, having a RL friend over for the weekend to shift swap or whatever. Now when I say handing off the account I want to clarify, that as P99 currently has no rules against it, I have no issue with handing off the SINGLE char to a friend who is not playing their char at the time so you can get a nap. A group of 6 people taking shifts managing the list for their group however, is called boxing, which is against the rules and should be reported if this behavior is seen.
The current system is rugged and in need of refinement imo. Its also a big commitment and you have to consider your health. I know many joke about unhealthy play time and we all have our own personal abilities and desires... just be careful guys as I said have a plan, be prepared, know your limits.
To be honest my anxiety is still through the roof from that AFK button and worrying about missing it while I ran upstairs to refill my cup of water.
Lastly... change your afk alert box from transparent to bright red... helped me at least.
