Did you do it like:

d(t' = t/𝛾), with 𝛾(t), after substituting v=9.8*t into 𝛾(v), and then integrate both sides, solving for the upper limit of the t' integral?

Unprimed is Earth's frame, for posterity.

Also, "approaching shitfaced at 1 g": not sure if claiming to be drunk or ugly... :|

Edit: no but if you really hate yourself, do d(𝛾*t' = t), with 𝛾(t), and then do algebra for days. It reminds me of some homework shit once with deriving a particularly simplistic expression algebraically for a Rankine-Hugoniot shock jump condition expression.
