Losing the interest in the game.

[solesider]

If you have a big project coming up in school, don't start any games a few days in advance, finish up the games you do have going...use real life strategy...

And if totally unexpected life events like unexpected surgery or stitches came up, I would hope dropping a couple spots on the ladder would be the least of your concerns.

That being said, I think 3 days is a fair timeline especially after the buzz of the game has died down and people aren't just downloading it because it's editors choice and ditching it.
