After a short discussion in the thread "Marathon Gaming" and a bit more in the chatbox, we've decided to start planning for an absolutely epic game marathon.

When
Probably some long weekend over thanksgiving or xmas so we can go for a very long time
Goals:
- Play (and complete) games quickly and well for 5 days straight.
- Alternate between "teams" set up across the country (and possibly world). For example, my team (in MA) might beat pokemon blue, then we could switch to bluix+slaser+mazeyelle in Washington state where they beat sonic 1, then switch to someone else
- Have as little downtime as possible, and someone giving commentary at all times.
- Raise money for some charity (tbd)
- Set up a website of operations
Rules
- Cannot quit playing for longer than a minute or so (having assistants / a team is advisable)
- Cannot use advantageous glitches/codes
- This is NOT tool assisted!
- Games need to be completed at a steady solid relatively quick pace
- Games need to be played to completion!
- We need someone commentating at almost all times
(remember we're trying to make this as entertaining as possible for the audience as well)
Teams:
Team MA:
nitnit
Jon (most likely)
Caj (most likely)
nitnit's random friends
Team WA:
Chaotix Bluix
Darkslasher X (most likely)
Mazeyelle (most likely)
Team Vegas:
Deathguiser
Team Hawaii:
Pay Per Cuts
Team UT (probable)
[Mortal Angel]
Games:
Pokemon Blue - Team MA
CoD4 - Team Hawaii
Some FPS (probably MGS) - Team Vegas
Some Kirby game - Team Chicago
Some Sonic Game - Team WA
Discuss and tell us what you can do! When we get close to the date, I may have to contact you via telephone (le gasp) to make sure everything is fully coordinated!
