    Well, now that we know that Morning/Day/Night will be in it, how long will you be up playing?

    If I don't have a guide and if I resist taking a look at ALL the new Pokemon when a list comes out, I'll be playing it all morning, day, afternoon, night and midnight.

    Because of the SURPRISES!

    Also, Ash_Pokemaster owes me a Thunder Stone if you can only catch Perappu in the early morning or late night.

    When I get Diamond or Pearl, I'll start playing it the moment I get it untill I get too tired to keep playing (which will probaly be way passed midnight n_n). It doesn't matter at what time you can find a Pokémon I like, I'll stay up all night if it's needed to get Dunsparce, Perappu or some other cutie. <3

    It will probaly take a very long time for Diamond and Pearl to come out here in Finland, though. At least I'll have something to look forward to for at least more than a year. ^_^

    I will play it EVERY MOMENT OF EVERY DAY UNTILL I PASS OUT FROM EXHAUSTION! Seriously, I just spent the last 24 hours awake playing my Sapphire. Then again, people have "accidentally" saved over it so many times that I to restart and regain everything I lost. I hope that doesn't happen with Diamon/Pearl.

    Anyway, I will play as long as humanly possible. Maybe I'll stop so that I can watch Star Trek: TNG, BUT THAT'S IT!

    Well, i did hear that the day\night factor is a bit more complex in D\P than G\S\C, instead of just morn-day-nite, its supposed to be something like early morn-morn-afternoon-evening-nite-late nite. So if I have to stay up till 2am I will. I usually stay up that late anyway(except on school days of course).

    I WILL KEEP PLAYING UNTIL I DROP! I'm serious, I mean first I'll check out all the Pokmeon and stuff. But D/P is really going to be cool! I don't care if I stay up.

    Bearing in mind there are five time slots for Diamond/Pearl, not two as in GSC, things could get interesting when it comes to catching at certain times of day. Of course, what a lot of people did was to set the time differently to normal, so you could have the evening ingame set in the afternoons real time, so you're not losing sleep. It's a bit more confusing, but it means you could catch all of the Pokemon easier. With D/P though, you'd probably need to set to an optimum time where you could encompass all five time slots easier and still get enough sleep.

    If Diamond-Pearl comes out during the school year I'll probably mostly be playing during the Evening/Night similar to when Gold/Silver first came out...because I'll be at school during the day.

    I will play it when I have time for it. If it uses the DS's Clock, I can time travel.

    I hope they use the DS clock, since they've managed to screw up time in 5 games.

    I myself am not too excited about the time system, when I first got Gold and Silver I only played during the night, since I'd set the clock wrong by mistake and I always got home at 4 realtime, 7 gametime. I'll end up missing SO much sleep though from this game cause I'll be up playing even when I'm supposed to be sleeping. (Yay! ^^)
    Though if Perappu IS during Early Morning or Late Night like you think it is Usohachii_Pot, then I'll probably sit there playing though the night and to early morning, trying to catch that thing. Though I suspect the musical bird is probably during midday or whatever the game calls it, though that's just me.
