Hi Pete,
I wrote some stuff years ago about this. It's still on my web site
http://www.gm4aff.net and click the 'How to last 48 hours (in a contest)...'
link on the right-hand side. It covers most stuff about diet, drink,
preparation, and even feng shui!

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Drugs, Sleep and Contesting
I was thinking of writing a little piece on this for the Contest
Compendium's section on sleep deprivation. My memory no doubt has
gaps, but I don't recall any serious discussion of the topic here. I
think that a couple of years ago there was a flurry of interest in a
drug called Provigil that had been developed for use by people
afflicted with narcolepsy, but that's all I recall.
Obviously, I'm not suggesting a discussion of illegal drug use (no
greenies, please) but I wonder what the collective experience has
been. Have you tried anything other than the measures suggested in
the Compendium article on Sleep strategies? See
http://wiki.contesting.com/index.php/Table_of_Contents#Contest_Operating
for that.
