Longest Random Arena Match...Ever!!!

I doubt there has ever been a match that lasted as long as this one. Long story short: We where 4 vs 4, we managed to get rid of 3 of the 4 opposing players. Only a monk was left. But we just couldn't kill her. We didn't have any spikers. Now anyone with a brain knows that the team with the most players standing should win, but the monk stayed around. One by one our team crumbled until only 2 of us where left. I lasted 1 whole hour until I realised that this is really stupid. The archer you see in my team stayed for another 30mins until the monk finally left. Just had to say this. I got screenshots to prove it:

eheheheh...

Your build is cute... haha

I have seen a picture of a match with 236 or so minutes, which would be around 4 hours. That was a REAL long time ago (old UI) so I didn't think GW had 1 hour countings in RA yet.

a) This is FAR from the longest ever. There was one that was 406 minutes.
b) Why do the 2 zeros look like they are shopped? Anyone?

Overall, just another couple of people being dumb in RA. Why you would wait that long, is beyond me.

This is actually a pre-arranged build/TA match. Names kept with permission (they're guildies).

My longest was about 45 minutes. As above, nobody left. We fought it out. It was 2 monks, 2 warriors vs 3 monks, 1 necro. It was back in May 05. I brought Gale on my monk, and I was able to predict and interrupt some key stuff that helped us to finally win. I have a screenshot, but I refuse to remove the names and so I refuse to post it here.

No screenie to prove it but I've had a 230 minute match in HA before, so coming up to 4 hours. We couldnt kill their uber defensive Obsi Flame spike, and they couldnt kill us (I'm pro infuse ) so we raged for GVG apart from our 3 monks. Our 3 monks then Channeling farmed for about 40 minutes before most of their team left.

Because of people having to afk 3 people got wanded to death and it ended being me as infuse monk vs. a Stoneflesh Aura ele.

Wand damage ftl against Stoneflesh, was fun though.
