After having experimented with polyphasic sleep in the past I am back to normal. I would like how many hours of sleep you actually get each day. For example I need (and usually get) around 9 to 10 hours of sleep each day, while my fiancée seems to be fine on 7,5 hours.

#2I get as many hours of sleep as I need. I don't try to keep to any particular schedule: When I'm tired, I go to sleep; and when I'm not tired any more, I wake up. Some days I sleep 5 hours; some days I sleep 11 hours; some days I sleep for two or more multiple-hour periods. I probably average about 8-9 hours.
Occasionally I need to be awake at a specified time (e.g., every Thursday evening, for rehearsals of an orchestra I'm playing with), but this very rarely interferes with my sleep non-schedule.

#35 hours on weeknights, 12 on weekends, average 7/night, neat.

I used to sleep like this back in high school.

#7I can get around with 5h/night but it depends. if I can get more (in weekends), I sleep more (about 9-10h). But I don't seem to really need it...

#8On weekdays I go to bed at 2 and wake up at 7. On the weekends I usually go to bed at 2 and wake up at 11. You just need to get into a routine.

Is that AM or PM?

#10You asked what we get, not what we need. Much of the industrialized world lives with too little sleep.
I need eight to ten hours to function well. Perverse lifestyle choices have put me in a position in which I get three to four hours.
