The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

How Much Sleep Do You Get?

Hey, guys :wave!  I'm working on a random data project for college statistics, and I thought I would post my hours of sleep survey question here in the form of a poll, if you're interested in participating.  I also have data from folks I know in real life (coworkers, classmates, friends, etc.).  If you'd like to vote, fantastic and thank you very much :)!

I get about 7 hours of sleep a night; and sometimes, I take 1-2 naps a day.

My answer would be "not enough."

So yeah, 5-6 hours.

Usually around 6 hours.  I would like it to be more like 8 hours, but the sleep apnea has been preventing that lately.

Growing up I didn't sleep much at all. I use to pull all nighters and went to bed at like 5:00 AM and woke up at 9:00-10:00 AM.

On average, I'd say 5-6 hours but it can range from 0 up to 11 hours or so :p After a night of only 3 hrs of sleep I just got some 10 hours last night so...yeah it changes, especially if I don't have to g et up in the morning :p

Up until last December, I used to typically get around 7 hours, regardless of how late I went to bed. Lately, I've been using the alarm feature on my new phone to ensure I get up early enough that I can get stuff done during the day. The downside is that I'm now reduced to anywhere from 6 hours to sometimes as little as 3 hours, depending on how late I stay up and how early I want to get up.

Only about 5-6 hours, which isn't enough, but oftentimes I just can't force myself to go to bed before 1-2 AM, even if I have work to do in the morning. :x

I'm the same way as you I try to fall back asleep also but it's hard to do that since your body thinks it got the full eight hours of sleep.

My usual sleep is between 7-9 hours, although sometimes I try to go over that to get some more rest, and it hardly ever works anymore due to my current sleep pattern.  :(

With the exception of some sleepless nights, I'm at a steady 8-9 hours. It is extremely important for your body to get enough rest, so I usually head off early since I have to get up early. Usually start sleeping somewhere between 10 and 11pm and wake up between 6 and 7am. I don't change my schedule during weekends. This has worked great for me!  Another big upside? I don't need an alarm clock. Much better to wake up naturally.

On the average, I get about 7 hours per night, and I prefer to get out of bed at around 9 AM. Even then, I often have a hard time getting out of bed since I have several very comfortable blankets that seem to let the bed "eat me" as my mother puts it. Sometimes I feel like Petrie when he's sleeping with his snuggling stick! LOL! Oh, and I don't use an alarm clock, either, frankly because I don't like jump scares.
Suddenly, I've written so many fanfics that I can't possibly list them all! :P

I tend to get around 6.5 hours for weekdays. I go to bed around 11pm and wake up a little before 6am for work.
