Yeah @Cedur216 It is too easy if I play more than 20 hours because in the last marathon I played my rating was 1960 and I finished #156
Thanks

1) second-last marathon.
2) that was 3+2, expect 5+0 to be more popular
3) even for such an unpopular marathon, you should be 150 points stronger

But with increment is not as easy as with no increment

> My rating is not more than 2100 in blitz and I want to play at least 22 hours.Can I finish top 100 with 100% berserk?
Top 100 ? Maybe, but i tell you by my experience, (24h in August 23 marathon, top500), that it would be very hard to keep the Berserk. Try top500, it's more realistic, yeah you can if you have the time to play 24h. My advice : work on psychology, it's very useful to fight the frustration of losing streak

Think also about your sleeping time before the marathon and -very important- about nutrition

Yeah @CSKA_Moscou always before a marathon I sleep at 8(in my country it starts at 2 in the morning)

It's good to sleep first if you're able. I can't do it, I'm too impatient for such an event to be able to rest while sleeping, so I did activities that couldn't do any harm to my eyes and my head: drawing, going outside (very important!), looking at painting in a book (relaxing for the eyes and the brain)... I spent almost 36 hours awake but I only felt physical fatigue first after 15 hours of play, and then the eye fatigue and then mental fatigue (lack of focus on the chessboard, more difficult decision-making because the body is not in its natural state).

Wow @CSKA_Moscou that's another level thanks a lot for your help!
