Well, that's nothing compared to the MUD game...
When I left university, we stoped the game for
around 4 months, the time to find a new computer
to run it on. When we restarted if, after 4 
months, without having told anybody, we didn't 
even had the time to finish the reboot and login 
that some people were already playing...
T'was scary...

Cheers,
