I don't like the new 10 PPP format...

As a side note, am I the only person experiencing this? When I click the first unread button on a thread that has gone from 1 to 2+ pages since I last read it, it always takes me to the top of page 2, no matter how few or how many posts I've read on page 1.

Edit: Never mind, it's probably assuming that I've read page 1 because I'm on it when I click the button.

This really depends on how much sleep you usually get. For example, if you (for some reason) sleep 15 minutes each night, 30 minutes turns out to be around 15 minutes due to the additional time needed to staunch a nosebleed.
You only get 15 min of sleep?!?!?!?!
That was a hypothetical situation. I get 6 hours of sleep on a good day. That's pretty good, especially for high school, but I'm still tired.
I still have never understood why people get such little sleep. There is no world in which 6 hours should be considered"good," especially for teenagers. (Over the course of this semester, I've been getting between 8 and 9 hours of sleep a night, and I'm a college student).

Good job on those 8-9 hours lol, and I agree that 6 hours shouldn't be considered good... but I can understand why it is. Considering how early we need to wake up and how late we're up because of sports, homework, scioly, an instrument, etc, 6 hours is considered okay because it would be almost impossible for most high schoolers to get any more than that, not because it's actually good for them.
I'm able to get 8-9 hours, but that's already difficult with me getting home at 9:30 each night (usually) and still having to do homework. By high school, I will almost definitely consider 6 hours to be "good" because of the added clubs and high school sports that I'm planning to do, the increased amount of homework, and the earlier wake up time.
I wish there were more hours in the day sigh :?

Well they pretty much only played rap music (which killed me inside) but other than that, it was really fun.

Much like EwwwPhysics said, I don't mean to say 6 hours is good for my health. I have extracurriculars to deal with, homework, 7 periods, a 2 hour commute(1 hour each way), family life, and insomnia. On days I have more time to sleep, unless I'm exhausted, it just means more hours of staring at my ceiling. Someone is going to yell at me that my courses are too difficult or that I'm taking on too many extracurriculars. Please try to tell that to my parents.

I would agree with Silver and EwwwPhysics here. I legit normally get 3-4 on weekdays. I understand it's horrrribbbleeee for my health. It's just that with multiple APs/college courses, extracurriculars, other commitments, family and friends, and life in general it just seems to kind of work out this way. Also, in my case, I procrastinate sleep - as in, I reallyyyy don't like going to sleep. It feels like I'm losing time that I could be spending doing fun things, like building my wiki bot or doing SciOly. I understand it's a really horrible thing, and it's certainly something I'm currently trying to combat and grow out of.

At this point, I'm trying to see it more of a growing opportunity - as in, how do I need to make this work, and what are my priorities? Doing less things in life in turn for more sleep? Concentrating what I do during the day to get more sleep? Just not get more sleep? Questions to think about.
