#Casual

Note: Don't try to reserve a game for the bonus stream here. It's too early, and reserving a game for the bonus stream destroys the point of it, it's meant to be more casual and relaxed.

Don't stop them from bringing the game and practicing to try to get an awesome co-op run off stream! Seriously though, while you shouldn't try to reserve a game, you still need bring it to have a chance at playing it.

Quote from Dragondarch:

Holy hell...I just realized I have an old NES U-Force kicking around!

...now I need to see if I can find all the attachments for it Wink

I also have a Zapper on hand too, and maybe one or two games that actually use it!

Yes, the U-Force! I was just thinking of how awesome that would be, especially if you have the attachment for Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!

I might have access to a working Power Glove, but I'm not 100% sure. I also have Bad Street Brawler and Glove Ball.

My feelings on The Demon Rush

I'm glad people are so excited, but I'd really like to know how much longer we should try to stay at the center for the bonus stream.

If you're doing the bonus stream at the 4H Center, that makes my personal "Get Drunk Enough For All of You Poor Fools" 100% run at MAGFest even more imperative. Cheesy

I think there can be a better consensus for how long we can/should stay at the Center after we know how much it will cost to be there just for the marathon. Granted, in order to know that, you need to know how much longer we should stay and the sooner you know the better. I'd say a day or two max. We won't have MAGFest at the same time like this year so Bonus Streaming can take place during the day and not just at night.

Also, should Bonus Streaming begin an hour or two after the marathon or the day after?

I say about 5-7 days is a good amount of time for Bonus Streaming. There should be a few rules on Streaming Priority though.

1: The game being streamed must be acceptable. Horrible games(I.E.: Not The Demon Rush or Lagoon type horrible, but just games that will bore and maybe just annoy people in general) are an instant "No, stream it on your stream at your own time." Extremely long games(anything above 3 hours or so, that isn't interesting to be specific) are also a no.

2: People who didn't have a game to play during the Marathon Stream have top priority

3: Depending on when a person is leaving depends on when they should be able to go on. I'm not saying "Oh you'll be here till the end of the stream, so you go last", but if someone is leaving in 5 hours they should be allowed to stream soon. This gives them their 15 minutes of Bonus Stream fame, and also gives them time to finish preparing to leave so they don't miss their flight or however they're returning home.

That can be reordered though but it's just my opinion.

ヽ ( ﾟヮﾟ)　The bonus marathon will be my time to shine.

Also, if we're going to spend so much time for the bonus stream, would it still viable to stay at the 4-H for another week? If there's surprisingly not too many people, maybe we can try something fun and recreate CGDQ~ If not, maybe try to make a deal with 4-H for extended stay discounts?

In all honesty, I probably won't be able to stay for any of it. I only get two weeks off work per year and using them both up before the third week of the year doesn't sound smart to me.

I'm in the same boat as dballin, latest I'll be staying is Wednesday (and that's only if I decide to be *cough cough hack wheeze* sick on Wednesday).

My feelings on The Demon Rush

It seems like I made this topic too early for its own good right now. I'll either unlock it or make a new one a month or two later when I have a better idea of what the exact costs of the 4-H Center will be, and a better estimate of how many people are coming.
