Once back in, you "shutdown -c" and remove it from rc.local. You sanity-check the system: what kernel booted up, as well as the checks similar to those you made pre-reboot (including verifying the same services are back up, etc. - perhaps using "diff -u" against your saved game).
-
If you had enabled netconsole temporarily, you disable it. You make the new kernel the default. You stay around for a few hours doing other work yet checking your e-mail in case issues come up or are reported to you (and you had planned for this before starting to play the game).

Alternately: if you had to spend this much time rebooting a single node, you already lost the game

That's a valid alternative, yes. Depends on which game it was supposed to be and ended up being, which in turn depends on scale and more.
