Simple question but cannot find the answer anywhere. What is the official world record for longest online gaming marathon? I know we all hear stories about guys dropping dead from playing too much WoW, but I want to know, whats the OFFICIAL longest record?

What I am going for is what is the official Guiness World Record for Longest MMO marathon? The longest Guitar Hero Marathon is held by a group of Germans who played for 26 hours. The official longest racing game marathon is 25 hours. I want to know, what number do I have to hit for it to be entered into the Guiness book of world records.
