Play your favorite games. Boring games put me to sleep. My favorite games can be played all night.

Caffeine about 5 hours before bedtime is guaranteed to keep me awake and hard to get to sleep.

If you feel yourself slipping, walk around for a bit, go to toilet, get a drink etc.

Get more sleep. I usually sleep 8-9 hours a night, so these strategies work well for me.

Days are too short man... I usually only get like 6hours.

If your lucky enough to get 8-9hours everyday, your obviously not going to suffer OP's problem.
He probably doesn't get that much sleep on avg.
Esp if hes making a thread about this, hes likely cutting into his sleep hours, to get a few hours of gaming done at night.

OP I think you should listen to your body.
If your too tired to stay awake to game at night.... don't.
Go to bed, make sure you get a good nights rest, try again tomorrow.
