Does the display burn in?

So I have a macbook pro retina 13 inch late 2013. I am currently playing a game called minecraft and I play at a server. I sometimes i afk. I keep the game running while I'm gone. So the problems is there is a same screen on the mac for like 2 hours and i was wondering if it could cause my display to burn in. Also i cant run screen savers or go to sleep because i want to keep the game running. SO MY Question is IF I KEEP THE DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS TO 0 AND KEEP THE GAME RUNNING WILL IT BURN IN? thank you for your support.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

If you put the display to sleep it will not suffer from image persistence. Avoiding image persistence on Apple displays and Avoiding image persistence on Apple LCD displays.

Screen savers won't prevent the game from running. You can open Energy Saver preferences and set the computer sleep to Never while shortening the display's sleep timing.
