I cannot believe this happened to me, but its a good lesson for all that may have young kids in the house. A couple weeks ago i reached level 35 on b-spec. Yesterday morning I decided to start the 24 hours of La Mans race. I used my X2010 so I just started the race and went about my day. I woke up this morning and bob was going strong. Then, as bob was about to finish the race, my 3 year old decided she wanted to watch a movie. Before I had time to react, and with less than 10 minutes left in the race, she pressed the eject button on the PS3. I just sat there in disbelief for a couple minutes. All that time wasted, thousands of virtual miles driven all for nothing. I need to find a new location for my PS3 that will be out of her reach. Maybe a shelf or something. Anyway, I just thought i would share my little fml moment.
24 hours wasted

1. LOL so sorry
2. LOL giving the bspec guy an x1 for his 24 hours seems like overkill

1. it sucked a bit, but its only a game. All I had to do was press X a couple times and let the game do its own thing.
2. I used this car because I did not want bob to loose on such a long race, but really it would have made no difference if I used an X1 or a Prius. BTW the X1 had about a 150 lap lead when this happened.

There should be an option some were. were You can switch users with out pausing the previous users applications
But PCs can be set up to require Passwords at the lock screen you can't stop them Shuting it down Due to there being a power cord and an off switch. but they would not be able to log in with out a Live CD. But if your kids are that unruly then theres nothing that can be done.

I lock mine in a cupboard. It's not so bad, there's a light in there and they get a potty.

My wife did that to me early on. Running over night getting in the bed and she turns it off before I could get the words out of my mouth. With the kids, problem solved, they have their own PS3 in another room! 
I have a two year that will either eject the disk if he can and ran because he knows what he did or do anything in his power to get the controller and turn the ps3 on, then he sits down and says oh whats that thinking he's going to get to watch a baby einstien movie

No kids at home, but my cat walked across the switch on the power bar and took everything down on me...lost a couple million imaginary dollars out of the deal too!

When I finished le mans b spec my controller died and the charger cable finally gave out on me so I went with my parents and they let me run inside gamestop and dish out 14 bucks for a new replacement cable 
I got home later and collected my winnings

I would do that, but then when I let them out to walk them, they'd keep admit me what a prostitute is.
But seriously, I dont even dare to attempt the longer enduros when I have to share the PS3 with three younger brothers.
On the upside, I do sometimes do their chores if they grind for me...
